I think she has received Death Threats from MAGA types. So I think that she has every right to be scared. Sorry. And yes, I live in 'anticipation' of the battering ram at My door.
Murkowski saying she is afraid makes me sick. She swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the Untied States. She betrays all the members of the military, who took that same oath and put their lives at risk, by failing to act against tRump.
I just wonder why is she afraid. Not that I really care, but is it just a seat or, for example, a threat from MAGA or other drump's bootlickers to find and hurt her family members?
I agree, but at least she said out loud what a lot of GOP Congress people must be feeling and sadly shows where the country is at. Hopefully they still have a bit of bravery left. If half a dozen in each House stand up they can put a stop to a lot of this.
I'm not afraid as much as fucking furious over what our congressmen and women have allowed to happen. They should have made sure Trump never got near the oval office in the first place. By denying he wasn't extorting Zelensky & leaving him in office is what has led to this disaster now. DO YOUR JOB!
I totally agree. You have backed this garbage and need to grow a damn spine. I don't give two shits about the threats you may receive, you choose this position. Own it!
Totally disagree. I admire Lisa for having the courage to show her vulnerability and let people know what is actually happening behind the scenes. Much preferable to macho stoicism. Acknowledging the actual problem preventing legislators from standing up to tyranny is the first step to solving it.
I live in Red N. Az. Not a lot different from AK.
We are afraid to have a sign in the yard for our candidate. We are all afraid, and we are still showing up. We call our representatives and worked to elect Democratic Senators.
This! So many young progressives are stepping up to take the place of cowardly status quo Democrats. Cowardly politicians are why people lost faith in Democrats, we need a progressive movement and to show the people that we deserve better.

a US Senator, a person of wealth, is 'afraid of retaliation'
& taking the coward's path, instead
🔸puts 𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 at risk of actual harm
people w/o the protection of wealth & power
🔸& watches as our nation is destroyed
