Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene used a CNN interview on Sunday to issue a rare public apology, admitting she had contributed to America’s “toxic politics.” The conversation grew tense after host Dana Bash questioned why Greene condemned political threats only when they targeted her, prompting Greene to acknowledge the criticism as “fair.” She revealed she had received heightened security warnings about escalating threats—claims she linked to President Donald Trump, whom she called “the most powerful man in the world.” Reflecting on the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Greene said the tragedy forced her to reassess her rhetoric and commit to “putting down the knives in politics,” emphasizing unity and kindness. Bash pressed her on past inflammatory actions, including a 2020 photo in which she held a gun beside images of “The Squad,” but Greene insisted she had addressed those issues in 2021 and never intended harm.
