It also includes journalists who they've been going after as well.
Two weeks ago on this show, you may remember us talking with an Emmy Award-winning independent journalist named Georgia Fort.
She was arrested and charged in the same case where the federal government arrested and charged the former CNN anchor Don Lemon.
You might remember us showing the dramatic and, frankly, disgusting footage of Trump's agents showing up at her house in the pre-dawn hours in masks to menace her and terrify her kids and ultimately take her into custody.
We asked Ms.
Fort to stay in touch as her case moves forward.
Tomorrow is her arraignment, and we've asked her to be back with us tonight.
Ahead of tomorrow's arraignment, Georgia Fort joins us once again here live.
Now, Ms.
Fort, thanks very much for joining us.
I know tonight must be a pretty tense night for you.
Yeah, absolutely.
And thank you for having me back, Rachel.
What should we expect to see at tomorrow's hearing and in the coming days?
What are you preparing for?
I know that there has been a lot of outcry over your arrest, the arrest of Don Lemon, who's obviously a very high-profile journalist.
And there's a lot of concern.
And one of the things we talked about when you were last here was whether or not that's translated
materially into support for you in terms of weathering the legal costs and in terms of just handling the stress and the pressure of what this has meant.
I wonder if that's changed at all over the last couple of weeks or if you still feel like you're being sustained by people sympathizing with you and being angered by the way you're being targeted here.
