TTune in here to this ​Thursday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!



Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by talking about the upcoming one-year anniversary of Hurricane Helene and the powerful stories that came out of last year’s devastating storm. He shares his firsthand experience covering the aftermath from the ground, including exclusive access to restricted areas like Lake Lure, Bat Cave, and Broad River. 



Brett recounts the community resilience he witnessed, from volunteer fire departments to makeshift supply centers set up by locals. He previews his plans to retrace those steps, visit the same locations, and reconnect with the people he met during that time—offering updates on recovery, lingering damage, and unfulfilled state promises.



Jensen also dives into the political fallout surrounding the newly passed “Iryna Zarutska Crime Bill,” focusing on the controversial response from a state senator representing District 42. Despite campaigning on public safety and distancing herself from “crazy Democrats,” she refused to vote on the bill after a death penalty amendment was added - mirroring a pattern of dodging other high-profile votes on issues like ICE cooperation, transgender inmate care, and defining biological sex.
