Tune in here to this Monday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by talking about Senator Thom Tillis’s decision not to seek re-election and the political firestorm that led to it. Jensen dives into how Tillis’s stance against additional Medicaid cuts in the Senate’s budget deal triggered backlash from GOP leaders and even former President Donald Trump. Despite a strong voting record with Trump, Tillis’s public hesitations often stirred frustration among North Carolina Republicans.
Later Jensen dives into the Democratic side of the race to replace Senator Thom Tillis. Brett discusses the two most talked-about potential candidates: former Governor Roy Cooper and current Attorney General Jeff Jackson. While Cooper has name recognition,
Jensen argues that Jackson is the more viable option due to his youth, energy, and broader appeal. In an exclusive one-on-one interview, Jackson acknowledges that he’s not currently planning a run but doesn’t rule it out—citing his productivity as Attorney General and the steep financial demands of a Senate campaign.
