Tune in here to this ​Friday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!

Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by talking about the brewing controversy surrounding Customs and Border Protection agents arriving in Charlotte and the political fallout that’s followed. Jensen highlights how some residents and activist groups are furious about the increased federal presence, while others welcome it as a necessary step to address crime and illegal immigration.

Jensen brings on Congressman Tim Moore, who expresses frustration over the recent 40-day government shutdown and praises bipartisan moderates for helping reopen the government. Moore sharply criticizes Democratic leadership for using the shutdown as leverage and strongly defends Border Patrol officers coming to Charlotte, calling opposition to them “outrageous” and rooted in anti-law-enforcement rhetoric. He argues the federal presence is needed to clean up the immigration issues of the last four years.

Later Jensen dives into the growing tension surrounding Border Protection agents arriving in Charlotte and the panic spreading among activists, Hispanic community groups, and local political figures. He criticizes what he sees as misplaced outrage, emphasizing that federal agents are targeting serious offenders, not law-abiding families. Jensen plays a WBTV report highlighting community fears and nonprofits preparing residents for possible encounters with agents.
