https://radio.foxnews.com/2020/09/10/sarah-huckabee-sanders-i-wish-there-were-more-good-reporters-in-the-white-house-briefing-room/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla, former White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders talks about her new book Speaking For Myself and what she thinks about the reporters she faced in the White House Briefing Room. “I wish there were a lot more good reporters in that room. I wouldn’t put Jim (Acosta) on that list, but there are some of the toughest, shrewdest journalists from around the world that sit in there and throw tough questions at you day after day. And I do appreciate the work that they do and the service they provide to the country. I just would like to see them be a little bit more fair to this President and this administration.” “They would take anything that he said and make it as negative as possible. I witnessed that every single day and still see that even from the outside. No matter what this President does, no matter how successful he is, no matter what he accomplishes, they will find a way to attack it. And I think that is sad that most of those individuals, the liberal media elite, have decided that they hate Donald Trump more than they love our country. And I think that’s pretty disgraceful. I’m sad that we’ve gotten to that place.”)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Maine East High School officials defend inclusivity banners after local Republican leader, citizens object to content – JENNIFER JOHNSON

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Shortly after the newest banner appeared at Maine East, Maine Township Republican Committeewoman Char Foss-Eggemann, of Park Ridge, posted a message on the Republicans of Maine Township Facebook page, writing that it is “a breach of the public trust to use taxpayer-funded government property to post political messages.” She encouraged followers of the pages to email District 207 Supt. Ken Wallace to inquire about the banner, which she referred to as a “BLM banner,” the abbreviation standing for “Black lives matter.” The message was also shared by the Republican Women of Park Ridge Facebook page, an organization of which Foss-Eggemann is also a leader. In an email to Pioneer Press, Foss-Eggemann said the Maine East banners contain “political messaging” and the name of “a specific political organization,” Black Lives Matter. “There should be zero debate on this because it is self-evident,” Foss-Eggemann said. “Political messages do not belong on any government building, period.” In an email to Wallace, which Foss-Eggemann also shared, she suggested the district could achieve “an environment of equality, inclusion and kindness” by using “apolitical banners which avoid politically-charged slogans or words routinely and/or commercially associated with various political group(s).”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: On a call with reporters hosted by the Biden campaign Friday, Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth lambasted Trump for “belittling the sacrifices of those who have shown more bravery than he’s capable of.” Duckworth, a retired Army National Guard lieutenant colonel who lost both of her legs in the Iraq War, has been a prominent critic of Trump’s handling of military issues. Knocking Trump for allegedly inventing an injury to avoid serving in the Vietnam War, Duckworth said that she’d “take my wheelchair and my titanium legs over Donald Trump’s supposed bone spurs any day.” Khizr Khan, the Gold Star father who drew national attention after criticizing Trump during the 2016 Democratic National Convention, joined Duckworth on the call and said that Trump’s “life is a testament to selfishness.”)
