"Immense Personal Jeopardy" - what does that even mean?

Legal jeopardy? Personal danger? Damsel in distress? Breathless hyperbole?

Probably. All you need in this day and age is a pretty, camera-ready face.

and you’re set for life. And you get away with all kinds of shit. I’m betting Pox Noise will pick her up right away as an anchor or “special correspondent” of some sort. As soon as they think the way is clear, that is.

Out of the mouths of babes...

I am seriously loving this kid! I admire him and Emma Gonzales and their bright, brave young colleagues so much! They’re our future and Thank God for that! We might survive this nightmare era yet.

I hope they run for office some day!

This. She gets no sympathy from me.

She walked right into this, willingly. Nobody forced her or pushed her or made her do anything.

A willing volunteer partner in crime.

If what he was doing was just fine, why would he

feel such an urgent need to hide it?

Brilliant and absolutely breathtaking!

“How dare you tell us we don’t know”!!!

WOW! I’m in awe.

Okay fine! Buh-bye!

Job opening! I’m sure they’ll carry on just fine without you!

And btw - um - there is that part about a “well regulated militia”...
Y’all can have your guns as long as they’re WELL REGULATED.

For me, it's not just her. It's David Hogg and several other bright, articulate young Americans

who are either approaching voting age, or already there. I hope they vote. I hope they remain passionate and committed about this issue. And yeah, I hope their paths lead them to decisions to get more deeply involved - in community, city, state, or national leadership. They're our farm team for the future. Of course they have to decide on that kind of mission for themselves, but I hope some of them decide to run for office. I will be there to support them if/when they do.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
