What concerns does Claire McCaskill express about First Amendment rights under the Trump administration?

Claire McCaskill expresses alarm about threats to First Amendment rights and the rule of law under Trump's administration, particularly regarding press freedom.

McCaskill draws a parallel between lawyers who have ethical requirements to uphold (noting Rudy Giuliani lost his license) and elected Republicans who should show similar courage to stand up for democratic principles. She commends line prosecutors in the Department of Justice who have demonstrated courage, suggesting more Republican officials should follow their example in defending constitutional values against encroachment.
