Breaking Brett Jensen is joined in the studio by David Longo, chair of the Charlotte Regional Business Alliance and board member of Charlotte Center City Partners. Longo discusses his role on the newly formed Metropolitan Public Transit Authority. The goal of the transit authority is to ensure safety across all Charlotte Area Transit System services once the recently approved one-cent sales tax referendum goes into effect.

Safety on Charlotte transit is a central theme throughout the interview. Longo emphasizes that safety and security are his top priorities and says implementing a system that supports those goals is critical. To accomplish this, Longo suggests leveraging technology to identify individuals who should not be allowed to ride the light rail or bus system. He also notes that expanded technology on the CATS system could help alert authorities to potential escalations before they become more serious issues.

Tune in here to this ​Monday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by discussing candidates running in the 2026 legislative races across Mecklenburg County. Last Friday at noon marked the deadline for candidates to file for office in North Carolina next year. Jensen then previews key state Senate and House contests in Mecklenburg County, which has historically leaned Democratic.

Several state legislative races in the county stand out. One is Senate District 98, where Democrat Beth Helfrich is set to face Republican John Rhodes. Jensen notes the district is unusual, as the seat has alternated between Democratic and Republican control in each of the past four election cycles. Another notable race is Senate District 105, where Republican Tricia Cotham is expected to face Kelly VanHorn, a former Democrat and former teacher who is part of a group of educators changing party affiliation to challenge Republicans.

County Commission races are also drawing attention, as no Republicans are running as at-large candidates. Jensen notes that Districts 5 and 6 were drawn in a way that makes it difficult for Republicans to win. He attributes the district boundaries to decisions made by the County Commission, which opted to draw its own maps.

Tune in here to this ​Thursday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!

Breaking Brett Jensen opens the show with details from a press conference held today by U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina Russ Ferguson and the Charlotte FBI office. The briefing addressed the two most recent stabbings on the light rail, including the August attack that resulted in the death of Ukrainian immigrant Iryna Zarutska. Among the key updates was that Oscar Solarzano, the suspect in the most recent stabbing, has been charged federally with illegal reentry and committing an act of violence on a mass transportation system.

Later, Jensen interviews several key local figures: former CMS board member Lisa Cline, North Carolina Rep. David Willis and U.S. Rep. Tim Moore. With Cline, he discusses the inner workings of the school board and the recent raise given to Superintendent Crystal Hill. Willis talks about the committees that continue to meet despite the General Assembly not being in session. Finally, with Moore, Jensen covers developments in Washington, D.C., as they relate to North Carolina, including a recent story involving the Lumbee Tribe in the eastern part of the state.
