Breaking With Brett Jensen

EXCLUSIVE: Monroe Restaurant Sued After Drag Show Protests

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.

12-11-25: Feds Charge Alleged Train Stabber

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

Breaking Brett Jensen opens the show by discussing what he calls a “major issue” surrounding the officials Charlotte residents elect to local office. Jensen says, in his opinion, that several people elected to city government over the past two years had no business being in office. He adds that these issues have persisted among individuals serving on roles ranging from the school board to the City Council.

Later, Jensen highlights an internal email sent by Brent Cagle, the interim head of the Charlotte Area Transit System. The email was intended to brief the Charlotte City Council on security aboard the CATS light rail. According to a report referencing the email, Cagle told city leaders that security teams do not ride every train for the full duration of their shifts. He also noted that a dedicated transit police force is expected to launch once CATS transitions to an independent authority.

The email also references a $3.4 million advertising campaign aimed at encouraging Charlotte residents to ride the light rail. In describing the campaign, Cagle says marketing and communications efforts continue to play a “vital” role in supporting CATS and the customers it serves. He also mentions security concerns related to Friday night’s stabbing incident, noting that no security personnel were on board at the time.

12-10-25: CATS Gives Stabbing Info In Email

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

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by discussing the topics in Mark Garrison’s news report on WBT this morning. The report, which Jensen calls “the best he’s heard,” covered the major issues relevant to Charlotte. Jensen notes that one story stood out - a $3.4 million investment by the Charlotte City Council for an advertising campaign encouraging residents to ride the light rail. Council members chose to focus on this rather than adding more security on the rail system.

Regarding the light-rail advertising campaign, Jensen says he believes the concept of “perception” is what motivated the City Council to invest in it. He says “perception,” rather than reality, has frequently guided council decisions. He also says the campaign is misleading to the public because it distracts from significant safety issues that continue to plague the light-rail system.

Later, Jensen breaks down numbers released by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department from the first weekend of Operation Safe Season. The figures detail traffic citations, arrests and guns seized.
