Joey Clark: Fight! Fight! Fight! Fear not!

Pumping his fist in the air three times, he shouted, “Fight! Fight! Fight!” with each thrust, as the crowd began to roar in recognition of what they were witnessing. Suddenly, the fear welling up within me began to transform into pride.

Joey Clark: Sen. Katie Britt wants your kids off social media
