Answer:  POSED A THREAT

(Great groaner of a pun!  A real stinker!  There are no new clue words, and, for a change, only one of the jumbles is new.  Only “leerd” is new.  FYI:  The clue word “accept” is one of those words that spells out alphabetically.  The answer letter layout was an admirable jumble in its own right.  No giveaways.  And, the cartoon was trés chic!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
