WASHINGTON, April 17 (Reuters) - 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.

 
"I'm going to use my voice to the best of my ability," Murkowski said during an appearance punctuated by applause from the audience. "I've got to figure out how I can do my best to help the many who are so anxious and are so afraid."
