Washington, D.C. - Ahead of expected resolutions of censure against her in the House, Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has apologized for making comparisons between protections in the Covid-19 pandemic and the Nazi persecution of Jews.

"One of the best lessons my father always taught me was when you make a mistake, you should own it," the Trump-allied Georgia representative said in Washington on Monday.

She had been to the Holocaust Museum in the capital in the afternoon, Greene said, adding that she had visited the memorial site of the former concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau as a teen.

"I have made a mistake and it's really bothered me for a couple weeks now," Greene said. She added that "there's nothing comparable" to the Holocaust.

"There are words I have said and remarks that I have made that I know are offensive, and for that I want to apologize," the 47-year-old continued, without actually indicating which remarks those were.

Greene politician stood by her criticism of coronavirus protections and supposed "mandatory vaccination" – a policy that was never actually instated.

Among other things, Greene had compared planned vaccination logos on supermarket employee name tags to the Nazis forcing the wearing of Jewish stars. In May, Greene said of the mask requirement in the US House of Representatives:

"You know, we can look back at a time in history where people were told they had to wear a gold star, and they were definitely treated like second-class citizens, so much so that they were put on trains and taken to gas chambers in Nazi Germany."

With her repeated comparisons of Covid restrictions with the systematic murder of six million Jews, Greene sparked outrage across party lines and antagonized her own party leadership. She has also openly promoted QAnon conspiracy theories on several occasions.

Greene already lost out on two committee assignments because of her radical posts, and has been openly criticized by her fellow party members.

It's uncertain if her last-minute news conference will have any impact on the resolutions expected to be filed against her this week.
