Summary

• Republican senator says retaliation is 'real'
• Murkowski is among few Republicans willing to break with Trump
• Audience responds multiple times with applause
• White House says success is Trump's only retribution

Republican U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski disclosed this week that the threat of political retaliation from President Donald Trump is real enough to make her anxious about speaking out about his tariffs, executive orders and cuts to federal agencies.

"We are all afraid," Murkowski told a summit of nonprofit and tribal leaders in her native Alaska.

"It's quite a statement. But we are in a time and a place where I certainly have not been here before," the 67-year-old lawmaker added. "And I'll tell you, I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice, because retaliation is real. And that's not right."

Other congressional Republicans have faced heated criticism and even shouting matches during in-person meetings with constituents angered by their support of Trump. Some have responded to protesters with police arrests.

On November 9th 2027 every single House member is up for vote! It will then be our turn to show the wrath to those spineless Congress members who refused to stand up to Trump!
