⚾ ICYMI: Frederick American Little League President Rick Wilson Joins the Morning News Express Bob Miller welcomed Rick Wilson, longtime President of Frederick American Little League (FALL), to the Morning News Express to talk about his decades of involvement with youth baseball and his dedication to generations of young players in the Frederick community. Wilson has been involved with FALL for more than 25 years, beginning as a coach in 1998 and eventually becoming president — a position he has now held for well over 15 years. But being president has never meant sitting behind a desk. Wilson has taken a true do-it-all approach, whether it's coaching, umpiring, maintaining the fields, cleaning facilities, stocking concessions or doing whatever else needs to be done to keep the league running. Wilson also shares his own lifelong connection to baseball, including how his love for the game helped shape his path before he ultimately found his passion in coaching, mentoring young players and giving back to the community through Frederick American Little League.

ICYMI: A Frederick County 9/11 Story — Michael Strawsbaugh Joins Bob Miller on the Morning News Express On the 25th anniversary of September 11th, Bob Miller was joined by Michael Strawsbaugh, a former volunteer with the Woodsboro Volunteer Fire Department, to share an incredible piece of Frederick County's connection to that tragic day. After American Airlines Flight 77 struck the Pentagon, Woodsboro received an extraordinary call for help. The Pentagon needed the department's 1950s-era Mack Ladder Truck 16 because it was small enough to fit through a 10-foot entrance and into the Pentagon's inner courtyard. A crew from Woodsboro answered that call and headed for Washington. Strawsbaugh shares what he remembers from September 11, 2001, how the Woodsboro volunteers became part of the massive response at the Pentagon, and the story of the old fire truck that became known as “the little truck that could.” The crew spent roughly 13 hours at the Pentagon helping contain the fire and working alongside first responders from across the region. It's a powerful local story of service, courage and answering the call when our country needed help most — and one worth hearing again 25 years later.

⚖️ ICYMI: Nicolee Ambrose Joins Bob Miller to Discuss Maryland’s Redistricting Fight on the Morning News Express This morning, Bob Miller welcomed Nicolee Ambrose, Maryland’s Republican National Committeewoman, to the Morning News Express to discuss the ongoing legal fight over redistricting in Maryland. Ambrose outlined the arguments behind a lawsuit challenging the process, saying the issue goes beyond political maps and centers on constitutional protections and the rights of Maryland voters. According to Ambrose, the lawsuit argues that Maryland’s Declaration of Rights protects all Marylanders, regardless of which political party holds the majority, and points to a 2022 ruling from a former state Supreme Court justice that found extreme partisan gerrymandering violated those protections. Ambrose also argues that the proposed ballot question fails to tell voters that those protections are at stake and that required procedures were not properly followed. She says the lawsuit is ultimately about ensuring Maryland voters receive the constitutional process and protections to which they are entitled.
