UP FIRST 10/28/2020

 

First look:
 
  • Bombshell: Whistleblower says Biden and family are "compromised"
  • Op-ed or "suppression" tactic - TheHill says Trump is winning easily
  • Sparks fly as Fox host compared Rudy Giuliani to Christopher Steele
  • National Guard responds as riots and looting continue in Philadelphia

Bombshell: Whistleblower says Joe Biden and family are "compromised"

Headline: Hunter's Ex-Business Partner Tony Bobulinski: 'Joe Biden And The Biden Family Are Compromised'

What's Up: Hunter Biden's former business partner Anthony Bobulinski spoke at length with Fox News' Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night, sharing specific details on what could be the biggest story of the 2020 presidential campaign. Bobulinski claims Joe Biden, his brother Jim, and son Hunter were all present when they discussed the international business deals the former Vice President has denied knowing about.

Quote: "'They were putting their entire family legacy on the line. They knew exactly what they were doing. They were dealing with a Chinese owned enterprise … that had strong financial support and political support from the Chinese Communist Party.'" — Tony Bobulinski via DailyCaller.com

The First take: After reviewing the entire hour-long interview, we believe Mr Bobulinski and would hope someone in the MSM as well as the DOJ and members of the Senate and House would actually investigate this story instead of looking the other way as it is being ignored. It's feeling more like an "October Suppression" than an "October Surprise."

TheHill.com op-ed predicts Trump is winning and winning big

Headline: Don't believe the polls — Trump is winning

What's Up: An opinion piece at the left-of-center TheHill.com actually lays out the case for a Trump win next week. And, it's not just a Trump victory, it predicts a massive win for the president. The analysis is based on a combination of data questioning the validity of the polls, the massive enthusiasm on display at Trump rallies, and the strong voter registration campaign executed by the GOP in battleground states. 

Quote: "Admittedly, no poll is perfect. That’s why RealClearPolitics takes a step forward by 'averaging out' these errors across polls. But 'averaging out' only works when errors are made in both directions. Here, many polls make errors primarily in one direction, so the average will still reflect some of the biases that exist." — TheHill.com

The First take: We admit our "spider senses" were tingling when we first saw this story. Could it be a legitimate and sound prediction or is this what might be considered to be a "voter suppression" tactic to make some Trump voters feel like their in-person vote is not needed next week? We're not 100% certain of anything these days. So, VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!

Fireworks as Kennedy says Rudy Giuliani is like Christopher Steele

Headline: 'You better apologize for that!': Rudy Giuliani goes nuclear on Fox host after Christopher Steele comparison

What's Up: Things got a little tense between Fox News' "Kennedy" and Rudy Giuliani when the host brought up Christopher Steele and compared some of Giuliani's actions regarding the Hunter Biden story to Steele and his discredited dossier.

Quote: "'It sounds like there may be something here that is fishy that is giving Americans pause, and now there's stuff that - uh, might have been completely adulterated...' adding 'Some could say that you were acting like Christopher Steele. That you were extracting information' — ZeroHedge.com

The First take: The interview ended shortly after Kennedy made her Steele comparison and Giuliani exploded in anger. We believe something good could come from this. If Kennedy does as she promised -- visits Giuliani's office today and sees the document in person -- this kerfuffle may actually lead to more information being released. And, THAT would be a good thing for transparency.

National Guard responds as rioting and looting continue in Philadelphia

Headline: National Guard responds as 1000s of looters ransack Philly In 2nd night Of chaos; reporter brutalized by "BLM rioters"

What's Up: A second night of rioting and looting in the streets Philadelphia saw the destruction of small stores, fast food restaurants and a Walmart was cleaned out, with looters seen wheeling large appliances out of the building. In addition to the looting, at least one journalist was attacked by what he identified as "BLM rioters."

Quote: "'BREAKING: I was jumped by BLM rioters while they were looting more than a dozen stores, including Wal-Matt, T-Mobile, & 5-below Though in pain, I didn’t stop reporting because Americans need to see what the corporate media refuses to show'" — Journalist Elijah Schaffer - via Twitter.com

The First take: We believe Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolfe should get credit for calling on the National Guard to step in last night. Some have speculated the governor moved quickly only because his state is  considered to be a "must-win" for both candidates. We would hope that was not the case.
