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 kicks off the show by discussing a press conference announcing a new initiative in the city of Charlotte, dubbed "Operation Safe Season". Among those in attendance were newly appointed Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Estella Patterson, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina Russ Ferguson, Mecklenburg County District Attorney Spencer Merriweather, and several others. According to Patterson, the purpose of the operation is to lay the groundwork for “reducing violent crime and disorder” during her first week as chief and into the future.

After the opening statements, Jensen notes that a question was raised about juveniles who may gather in the Uptown area and cause trouble during the holiday season. In response, Patterson said she understands that young people want to enjoy the community festivities, but emphasized they must be responsible and follow the law. Another topic addressed was the role the federal government will play in the operation. Ferguson said, in part, that the response will not be based on zone locations but on where crime is occurring.

Jensen concludes the show by discussing two additional local topics. The first concerns Mecklenburg County Commissioner Vilma Leake, who represents District 2 and is once again running for a seat on the commission. The second focuses on the current state of the Carolina Panthers, who are on their bye week.

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

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show talking with former North Carolina Republican Party Chairman Michael Whatley, who recently filed to run for the North Carolina Senate. Whatley describes his campaign as an effort to “discuss the issues that matter for North Carolina.” He says common sense is needed to address the state’s top concerns - particularly the economy, jobs and public safety.

When asked whether Republicans will rebound in state government next year, Whatley says the decision will hinge on whether voters believe their future senator will support former President Donald Trump and the “America First” agenda. He says he is confident North Carolinians will side with Trump again and emphasizes that he wants to be Trump’s “conservative champion” in the Senate.

Later, Jensen discusses two stories relevant to the Queen City - a rise in apartment construction and rent prices, and a lawsuit in NASCAR involving team owners Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin.

12-3-25: Senate Candidate Michael Whatley Joins

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

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by interviewing North Carolina State Auditor Dave Boliek. Boliek and his team are actively investigating the City of Charlotte's $99,999 settlement given out to Lance Patterson, the husband of new Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Estella Patterson. This payout was brought about to settle Patterson's seven-year lawsuit against the City.

In the interview, Boliek mentions that he requested this investigation to bring transparency to the residents of Charlotte - as well as expose how the city government spends their taxpayer funds. He also notes that his office reached out to the City of Charlotte on November 14 to request the details of the payout. When asked his thoughts about City staff calling the investigation a "political ploy", Boliek emphasizes that he was very clear when he investigated the settlement to former Police Chief Johnny Jennings. During that investigation, he explained that the position of the State Auditor's office is that any expense of taxpayer money is the business of the taxpayers. This rhetoric is also being used in the newest investigation.

In closing, Boliek gives an update on other projects that the State Auditor's office has been working. One such audit involved the North Carolina Office of Recovery and Resiliency, which looked at the Eastern part of the State's response to Hurricanes Matthew and Florence. Boliek notes that this particular audit is instructive and interesting as it pertains to how the State responded to those storms that affected the region.
