“Are you worried?” That is always the first question. “Of course I am worried,” I respond. “The president of the United States considers me an enemy and has promised retribution. I would be an idiot not to be worried. But I am not going to give in. I will continue to fight.”

“In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked.
