Tune in here to this Wednesday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!
Breaking Brett Jensen opens the show by discussing a new historic law that will take effect in N.C. on Monday. The measure, dubbed “Iryna’s Law,” was developed after Ukrainian immigrant Iryna Zarutska was stabbed to death on Charlotte’s light rail in August. The law’s primary purpose is to crack down on pretrial release for repeat and/or violent offenders.
Jensen emphasizes that Iryna’s Law affects every person in Mecklenburg County - and, in some cases, those in neighboring counties. He also notes that in addition to targeting repeat offenders, the law eliminates written promises to appear in court. This provision is particularly significant because Decarlos Brown Jr., the man charged with murdering Zarutska, had been granted such a promise to appear by a county magistrate. Iryna’s Law also abolishes cashless bail, among other changes.
Later, Jensen shares a statement released by Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden regarding Customs and Border Protection’s departure from Charlotte. In the statement, McFadden says the Border Patrol operation created “confusion, fear and mistrust throughout Mecklenburg County.” However, he goes on to say that “the Sheriff’s Office played no role in causing that confusion.” Jensen stresses that the people “living in fear” were the migrants living in the Queen City illegally.

News Talk eleven ten and ninety nine three WBT Brett
Jensen here with you on this Liven and Living Color,
by the way, on this Wednesday Night of Breaking with
Brett Jensen, as we go up until seven o'clock tonight
on this Thanksgiving Eve. You know, we have Christmas Eve
and we have New Year's Eve, but that's about the
only eves that we actually celebrate. But Thanksgiving Eve. I
(00:55):
will tell you this, so I grew up in the
By the way, what just happened here is exactly why
I like doing what I do, because I came in
and I'll get to what I was gonna talk about later.
We're gonna talk about how the Arena law goes into
effect on Monday. The next time I talk to you
(01:16):
will be on Monday when the Arena of Zeriska Law
goes into effect and a lot of people are gonna
have to stay in jail, not getting out any more
cashle spell thing of the past gone. We're gonna get
into that. We're gonna get into Gary mc fatten put
out another statement about the border patrol and everything else
he put that out earlier today, We're gonna get it
in the Carolina Panthers. How they stunk it up? And
is Bryce Young? Like Bryce Young? Dude? Really? But anyways,
(01:42):
but this so everyone in the studio can tell you
the exact same thing. Lonnie can tell you this. Travers
can tell you this. Isaac could tell you this. Tommy
before them could tell you this. TJ could tell you this.
Not TJ Ritchie, the previous TJ that was the producer.
That's no over at there. Look right, they can all
ta you the same thing. Lennie, grab the mic real quick.
(02:06):
How many notes do I bring in? Zero? Zero notes? Yeah?
Like I know what I want to talk about in
my head and the bullet points are in my brain.
Now I've seen the notes in the briefcase that like
Pete bring in and he's got a three hour show,
so he has to do that, and Warnerable will have
a ton of stuff and audio because he's got a
three hour show. I'm like, no, let's go, I got
(02:27):
everything in my brain. I just come in, I sit down.
I get to the station at today, I got to
the station at six oh two. The show starts at
six oh five, right, that. But so, you know, so
I tend to add lib a lot. Yeah, you know.
So what I was going to say is is that
you know, we don't celebrate Eve's New Year's even Christmas Eve,
(02:49):
that's it, right, Not July fourth Eve, not Thanksgiving Eve,
not Halloween Eve, none of that. Right. But I can
tell you on Thanksgiving Eve in the restaurant industry, like
this is just I was just gonna go down this
rabbit hole. This is what I do when I add
LIB on Thanksgiving Eve. I grew up in the restaurant industry.
(03:13):
I've had every job you can imagine as in the
restaurant world. My very first job, at fifteen years old
was as a busboy at the Western Sizzling in Gastonia
on Garrison. I was fifteen years old, all right, did that.
And then I worked as a waiter and I was horrible.
(03:35):
I was such a bad waiter that they actually came
up with the nickname super Server because I was so bad,
like making fun of me, how a baud because I
hated every customer, like I I walk up and like.
But then I went to bartender and I killed it,
knocked out of the park. And even when I was
(03:58):
at ESPN and living in Athens, Georgia, I would bartend
like once every two weeks something like that, just to
make money, not even be on payroll, just just because
it was something different, even just because I liked I
always liked bartending, always liked it. And then when I
moved to Charlotte in O nine and I didn't work
for a year, took a year off, and I was
(04:22):
one of the bartenders that helped opened. I only worked
one day week, generally only Mondays, and it was at
Pacos Tacos. And that's where I met a super restaurant
tours Charlotte, Frank Sabelli Chabelle. Right, he's like the guy
in rest in Charlotte for restaurants Mama Recta's and Midwood
Smokehouse and Pacos Tacos and like, you know, all that
(04:45):
great stuff and he's a good guy. So and then
I was even a bar manager for a while. Like
so again, I and my dad owned five Domino's Pizza stores,
and when he got sick, I went up there and
helped run them and like ran the operator, helped run
the operations for five Domino's Pizza stores up in Jersey
(05:06):
in the South Jersey Shore, wild Wood, Cape, May Sea Isle.
Stuff like that. One thing is been universally true in
my time in the restaurant industry. Thanksgiving Eve and Thanksgiving Night. Okay,
(05:27):
Thanksgiving Eve and Thanksgiving Night. If you are a bar
slash restaurant, but a bar, you know, whether it's like
Angry L's or McCoy's or Hickory Tavern or Moosehead whatever, right,
whatever the case may be, If you are a bar,
you will be packed, absolutely packed, usually on Thanksgiving Eve
(05:51):
and almost always on Thanksgiving Night, almost always why relatives
are in out of town. No one has to work
on Friday, right, They've been stuck with their sorry ass
in laws all day and they want to get out
of the house or the cousins that they don't like
or whatever, or the weird ants, the crazy ants, or
the inappropriate uncle. Every family has a crazy nd and
(06:15):
every family has an inappropriate uncle's. That's just I've been
saying that forever every like I will tell you my family,
crazy aunt, inappropriate uncle, and I've never met a family
that didn't have one of those. Just make sure you're
not the crazy ant or the inappropriate uncle. Well, just
make sure. Jennal was the rule. If you can't find
(06:36):
out who the inappropriate uncle or the crazy end is,
it might be you. But anyways, so tonight is usually
like a big celebration night, but especially Tomorrow night. So
if you're a bar slash restaurant, you need to be
open tonight. And I know it sucks for your employees
(06:56):
and maybe you, you know, do very little in the
kitchen work where you just only are doing appetizers. You're
not doing real food. You're only doing app stuff that
you can deep fry, where you turn not to fryer.
Maybe that's it. Thanksgiving Thanksgiving Eve, it's a good night
to go out, and especially Thanksgiving night football games on.
(07:17):
Everyone's watching football games. Thanksgiving's over by six o'clock usually,
like most people eat Thanksgiving around two o'clock, three o'clock
in there, so it's over seven o'clock, eight o'clock. You
want to go out. If you're a bar, you should
be open. I promise you that. And some of my
biggest nights as a bartender were on Thanksgiving night and
(07:38):
Thanksgiving Eve. All right, so when we come back, let's
get into the arena Zarotska law and what it actually
means in the impact that it's going to have here locally.
You will notice an impact and in a positive way,
in a very very positive way, you will notice it.
(08:15):
Welcome back to breaking with Brad Jensen on this Thanksgiving
Eve as we go up until seven o'clock seven oh four, five,
seven eleven ten. All right, so coming up on Monday,
on Monday, you need to understand and yes, this does
impact you, This absolutely does. It impacts every single person
(08:38):
listening to my voice in Mecklimbore County and in some
cases people in neighboring counties. The Arena Zaruska law now
goes into effect, although the neighboring counties don't have the
issues that Mecklimbre County does in terms of activists, magistrates
and judges. But starting on Monday, the Arena Zeriskal Law
(09:02):
goes into effect. They voted on it and that was
the famous incident where Watson Bradley voted against it. Mecklimure
County senator represents like South Park and Matthews and Mint
Hill and the Providence area right Rayroad, Piper Glenn, that
(09:22):
whole area. So she voted against it, just so you know.
But what this does is it finally says, and it
took the fact that it took a state law tells
you all you need to know about activist judges, specifically
here in Mecklinburre County. But here's what it did. The
(09:44):
law says, all right, pre trial releases for repeat offenders
or violent crimes, no more. To Carlos Brown had a
lot of violent crimes. A lot of people had had
a lot of violent crimes. And you saw the was
it the fifteen year old had been arrested like one
hundred and twenty times, one hundred and fifty times, whatever
(10:05):
it is, fifteen years old walking the streets. So this
law says, nope, no more, no more. They passed the
bill and it gets rid of written promises to appear,
which is exactly what the Carlos Brown had. Oh do
you promise to appear at your next to court appearance?
(10:28):
And while waiting murdered Arena Zaruska, right, murdered Arena Zerutska.
So that takes into effect. Also cashless bail gone gone.
So if you are a repeat offender or charged with
a violent crime, you do not get written promises. You
(10:50):
actually have to one come up with bail. No more
cashless bail. No more written promises. Yeah, because you know
the promise of someone that committed a hardcore violent crime. Yeah,
his words good, his or her word. Yeah, they're good,
they're good. Yeah. No need to worry there, No need
(11:13):
to worry there. So judges or magistrates will also have
to consider a suspect's criminal history when granting pre trial
release and will have to enter a written finding a
fact if they do so. All right, you actually have
to give a you know, like the Supreme Court gives
a written verdict. They have the pro and the against.
(11:37):
You know what I'm saying, like the dissenting voice and
the agreeing voice. So now they have to give statements. Right, Well,
now the judge will have to enter a written finding
a fact if they actually grant a pre trial release,
because you have to consider all the circumstances going on.
You have to consider everything going on. So what does
(12:01):
this mean for the jails? Guess what? A lot more
people getting ready to be putting that jail because now
you don't get pre child release, Now you don't have
cashless fail So what does that mean? That means the
jail is going to be have a lot more people.
I think they're even from what I understand, they're even
putting bunk beds in there. Because Charlotte has a lot
(12:26):
of crime regardless, and in spite of what CMPD and
the city leaders tell you there have not been honest
with you. And I've been trying to document that from
day one. Oh, Charlotte's safe. Oh really, murders are up
to we're up two hundred percent through October and uptown.
(12:47):
And how's that crime rate been going since July first? Hell,
how's that crime rate been going since August first? Okay?
All right, Now, the crime tends to go down a
little bit in the winter months because not as many
people are hanging outside when it's thirty five degrees outside.
(13:09):
Now we're not quite to the thirty five, although it's
gonna begin getting down there at night, coming up like
especially all next week and starting like tomorrow night or whatever. Right,
So you know, McFadden, he understands that more people will
be put into the jail for longer periods of time.
Why longer periods of time because they now have to
(13:29):
come up with bail and you may not have a
bail bondsman going dude, you've stabbed three people in the
past six years. You think I'm giving you bail money, Like,
what are the odds of you showing up or trying to? Like,
so it's gonna be difficult. So yeah, more people will
be staying in jail longer before they can come up
with money to get out. The get out of the
(13:52):
Pokey the joint, right, I still love the Pokey. That
might be my favorite name. So there's a lot going on.
There's a lot going on. But again, Arena's law eliminates
the written promise to appear in court, right, it eliminates that.
(14:17):
Now my fans like, look, we're probably gonna have to
get more staff, Like we've got the space, we just
probably are going to need more staff. And he's right,
he's one hundredercent right. But it also creates a new
pre child release procedure again that requires judicial officials. And
(14:40):
this is coming straight from a rapport. I'm just reading
a verbatim for people who are charged with violent offenses
and have been subject to involuntary commitment. Right, Like, there's
a lot going on here now and a lot of
the Democrats are all up upset because you know why,
(15:01):
it's actually going to put criminals in jail they're upset
about that. The county commissioners are having a meltdown. Oh
my god, don't forget there hasn't been a Republican on
the county commissioners since twenty eighteen. Twenty eighteen was the
last time there was a Republican on the Meclimore County Commissioners.
(15:22):
And again, it's funny how they talk about jerrymandering across
the state, but yet the Democrats jerrymandered the hell out
of the districts in Mecklimore County to ensure that Republicans
never get elected at county commission just so you know,
just want you didn't know that. But anyways, a lot
of that's going on Arena Zaruska's law goes into effect Monday.
(15:45):
And why does it impact you, Because in theory, the
streets should actually be a little bit safer because you
have to go to jail. You don't get to get
out on a written promise. You actually have to put
up a bail in a bond. So there you go,
that's that's actually a good thing. Despite the county commissioners
(16:07):
having a complete and utter meltdown, Oh my god, these
poor people, they're gonna have to go to jail. Yeah,
never mind the victims again, the viylyiles theory. Let's let's
sympathize with the aggressors, not those who were attacked. All right,
When we come back, let's speak of Gary McFadden. He
put out a letter again today talking about border patrol.
(16:30):
So we'll go over that and the Carolina Panthers not good.
Welcome back to Breaking with Brett Jensen on this What
(16:52):
a Got Wednesday night edition of Breaking with Brett Jenson,
as we go up until seven o'clock to night against
seven oh four five, seven eleven ten. Okay, So Arena
Zarusko's law starts on Monday. We just went over that
and what it all means and what exactly it is
and everything else. Right, Well, McFadden put out a statement
this afternoon, and I'm just I'm gonna read most of it.
(17:15):
It's not very long, and I may skip a paragraph
or two because a little bit like towards the end
of it is a little bit like it's not relevant,
to be honest with you, But the headline is CBP
Customs and Border Patrol or excuse me, protection, Customs and
Border Protection. That's what it stands for. CBP leaves Charlotte
(17:39):
tangled in web of confusion, bitten with mistrust, and filled
with venomous fear. I will say this his headline, I
know his PR person, I said, ILL have a headline
that's actually a pretty solid headline. You know, because the
name of the operation was Charlotte's Web. Right, leaves Charlotte
(18:00):
tangled in the web of confusion, bitten with mistrust, and
filled with venomous fear. As we all know, the recent
Customs and Border Patrol Charlotte's Web operation created confusion, fear,
and mistrust throughout Mecklimore County. But let me be perfectly clear,
the Melcklimore County Sheriff's Office played no role in causing
(18:25):
that confusion. So who are the people that are in fear?
Haven't we gone over this a million times? All right?
Show a hands of everyone in the room that was
in fear last week, Show a hands exactly right, Like, okay,
(18:50):
I know hispanics that were going to work every day,
everything else, and no big deal. You know why, because
they knew they were here legally and there they were fine,
didn't care, right, Those that are living in fear were
the eight percent of Meclimore County that shouldn't be here,
ninety to one hundred thousand that didn't have a green
(19:11):
card that came over the border illegally, all right. I
continue that confusion stemmed from lack of transparency, coordination, and communication,
and the rigid spread of incomplete or inaccurate information. Meanwhile,
rumors and speculation have taken on a life of their own.
(19:32):
And while others are guessing the ms the MCSO Mechlmore
County show office is only dealing in facts when it
comes to the CBP operations. Yes, misinformation like a fifteen
year old was handcuffed and zip tide, or he was
(19:52):
a twenty year old criminal, or he was a twenty
year old criminal. Okay, that was the misinformation. MSNBC actually
said children being arrested off the street, or it was
a twenty year old criminal one of the other. Don't
let the facts get in the way of a good story.
(20:12):
The Democrats are all too well known for that. Don't
let the facts get in the way of a good story.
Here are the facts. As McFadden continues, the Sheriff's office
did not assist, participate, coordinate, relay any information, or engage
in any enforcement action, arrest or operation connected to Charlotte's Web.
(20:36):
One hundred percent true, one hundred cent true. The Sheriff's
office has no information regarding the estimated three hundred and
seventy to four hundred individuals detained or arrested under civil
immigration authorities or criminal warrants. True sent true, Umm, No
citizens or undocumented individuals arrested or detained for any civil
(21:00):
immigration related defense or any criminal offense were brought to
the Meccanburg County Detention Center for processing. Again all one
percent true. Border Patrol and Ice did this all on
their own. And I will tell you one of the reasons,
let me let me put it this way, instead of
(21:21):
me telling you my guess, is this my educated guess.
Is the reason they don't generally involve local law enforcement,
because where have they been going San Francisco, La, Chicago, Boston, Baltimore, DC.
They don't get a lot of help from the local
(21:42):
police department these matter of things. They get almost no
help from the local police departments. Portland. We all know
what's going on in Portland where it was what over
one hundred straight days they were outside the Ice detention
center in Portland and the police department in Baltimore, excuse me,
in Portland refused to do anything. Don't forget it's to
Portland that during the riots of twenty twenty, Antifa there
(22:06):
literally tried to burn down the federal courthouse one hundred
and five straight days. I want you to think about that,
and they did nothing to try to prevent it.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
That.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
All they did was put up like guard around the courthouse.
One hundred and five straight days they tried to burn
down the courthouse. Antifa out there in ice in Portland,
now over one hundred straight days of out there and
local residents complaining, going, dude, we can't sleep. They're on
their bull horns at four o'clock in the morning talk
about the protesters, Antifa and the Portland Police Department. They
(22:41):
were told to stand down and do nothing by city officials,
even though your own residents, who all voted for you,
by the way, are complaining you stood down. So I
understand why the federal law enforcement, in terms of ICE
(23:02):
or border patrol, or even sometimes maybe the FBI. I
understand why they don't tell anyone what's going on. I
get that CMPD has over two thousand employees. You think
two thousand people can keep his secret. If they could,
I won't be able to have all my information. I
get my information from people that tell me things right.
(23:24):
The only communication the Sheriff's officers received regarding the Border
Patrol activity in Charlotte was a brief heads up from
federal officials that Border Patrol personnel would arrive on Saturday,
November sixteenth. Our agency received a follow up message five
days later that they would depart on Thursday. Any other
news that would be reported thereafter his false Well, no, see,
(23:48):
that's where he's wrong, And I would tell the sheriff
this to us straight to his face. That's where he's
wrong because he's saying that he got the information from
federal authorities saying that they're leaving Thursday morning, which they did.
Organization said it ain't over. As a matter of fact,
they put out another The head guy for Border Patrol
put out another tweet today in a video going it
(24:08):
ain't over. It ain't over, So you can't say, yes,
they told us that it's over, therefore their believe. But
then they come back and say it's not over. They're
not to be to be believed. They're the ones in control,
not McFadden. He doesn't have to say so in that
(24:29):
So if they say they're coming back, odds are they're
probably coming back. So and he's right what he says.
Immigration didn't suddenly become an issue when border patrol arrived
in Charlotte. Our community has been grappling with the immigration
challenges since the day took office in December of twenty eighteen.
(24:49):
And that is true because he refused to do twenty
seven eighty Was it twenty twenty seven eighty G? I
think it is two seven eight zero G. I think
that's twenty twenty eight G twenty seven G where shares
cooperate with ICE. He ran on the platform that he
would not cooperate with ICE, and ICE made him a
national figure, you know, And now McFadden for the last
(25:12):
two months has been cooperating with ICE. So a lot. Look,
he's not wrong there. It has been an issue, a
big issue, some of it self inflicted, self induced. But
it's been an issue, not all of it, but some
of it has been self induced. All Right, when we
come back, we'll wrap up a little bit about this
and also talk about I know we're supposed to go
(25:33):
into the holidays thinking nice things. But after what happened
Monday night with the Carolina Panthers, it's kind of hard
to say anything nice about the Panthers. Welcome back to
Breaking with Brett Jens for a few more minutes here
(25:55):
on this Thanksgiving Eve. Go ahead of libations, before I
head out, before I get to the before I go
turn it in for the night. All right, real quick, everyone,
I want I want to tell you this. Okay, We've
got the kids first thing, right, the bike drive that's
(26:18):
next week, Friday, December fifth, from five to nine pm.
And it's going to be it's gonna be big. It's
big every single year, every single year we're doing this,
and it's the Hancock's Bike Drive, Hancocks Bikes for Kids
drive right part of the kids first of the Carolinas.
(26:42):
And if you live in Gaston County and you don't
want to drive all the way into Meckleborough County, I
get it, trust me, I get it. You can also
go by Watson Insurance in Belmont. There's a bike drop
off there three or two East Kataba Street right there
in Belmont. So again again a lot of different ways
you can do this, and we're gonna be broadcasting live
(27:02):
from five to nine on air. All the WBT staff, Boomer,
We're all going to be there. Ed Billock really coordinates
all of this. He's like the guy who coordinates almost
every single thing, and a lot of this won't be
able to be done without him, so he is. He's
much appreciated in all of this. And again there's a
(27:25):
there's a lot going on where people are going to
be able to. Like I said, when you pull up
with a bike, well, so you only have one, it
doesn't matter, or you've got eight in the back of
your truck. You don't even have to get out of
your car. We will come up and take it out
of your car for you. And by the way, just
(27:46):
so you know, there's there's a possibility that you may
even be put on air. A lot of times when
you drive up in your car, somebody will walk over
with the microphone and go, Hi, what's your name? Where
are you from? Usually like Beth or or whatever. Where
are you from? What's your name? Winterbow does that a
lot too, And why did you come high by here?
(28:07):
For the bikes? For kids? You know, like there's a
chance there's a fifty to fifty chance you're gonna be
put on air, just so you know, So don't be
cut off guard by that. All right, all right, caught
off guard. That's one thing that forty nine ers were
not on Monday Night with the Carolina Panthers, Bryce Shng
clearly last week against the Atlanta Falcons was fool's gold.
(28:30):
He's had two good games this year, one against Arizona,
and I mean he's had other good games where he
was asked not to do anything and that's fine, and
he didn't lose the game. He was doing what he
We don't need you to win the game, Brice, just
don't lose the game. Well, this was an equal thing
with Bryce she Young and Dave Canalis, like they both
(28:50):
did a very poor job Monday night. Bryce she Young
one hundred and sixty nine yards, two interceptions, quarterback rating
of sixty by the way, in case you don't know,
that sucks. A quarterback rating of sixty sucks, just so
you know. But here's the problem with Dave Canal's part.
(29:12):
This is where Dave really really messed up. He literally
ran the ball nine times and they're supposed to be
a run first team and he ran the ball nine
times and guess what when he ran the ball. Chuba
Hubbard averaged six point three yards of carry. Six carries
only six point three yard. I mean, that's that's incredible.
(29:34):
Cheba Hubbard only ranted three times average five yards of
carry like they were doing what they needed to do
and gaining in Dave Canals for some inexplicable reason said
you know what, bright young, we're relying on your right arm,
all five foot ten of you, all one and eighty
(29:55):
eight pounds of you. He's been in the league with
this is his thing. He still looks like a twelve
year old. People after they get to be about twenty
two twenty three, they start putting on more muscle and
more weight, and they get a little bit thicker, right
like the Freak show the Human Praying Mannas in the NBA,
(30:19):
Victor Winmbayama, who's like seven foot six, came in the
size of a pencil. He's still a pencil, but at
least he's gained like twenty thirty pounds right from the
time he was drafted to where he is now. I
don't know if Price hasn't gained any weight, but he
still looks like he's one hundred and eighty eight pounds,
five foot ten, and he looks like my little brother,
(30:43):
my little brother when I was twenty, and my little
brother would have been fifteen. And that's not a slide
against Bryce, but this is just that's who he is.
And I was on wfn Z earlier in the week
and they asked me, am, I, Dave Kannalis, guy, if
I have to get rid of one, Dave Canalis or
Bryce Young. I said, I'm getting rid of Bryce Young
(31:04):
all day, every day. It's not even a question. I
thought Bryce Young's career was over last year when he
got benched after a couple of games, and then he
came on the second half of last season and looked
like a million dollars and everyone got excited. And even
with all this turmoil, there's still six and six and
they're right there, like a half a game out of
the playoffs, so winning the division. They've got five games
(31:26):
to go, they get a bye week of these last
five games, and anything can happen. But Bryce Young, nice,
sirn sir Nope, keep them one more year. Keep him
next year. His rookie contract to be over, and you
can draft somebody else, or try and sign somebody else,
or trade for somebody else. Whatever, You're probably better off
(31:47):
drafting somebody else. There's not a lot of quarterbacks out
there that you would necessarily that will be traded like
they don't. Teams don't trade good quarterbacks because they're so
hard to find. They don't. So like Lamar Jackson is
not getting traded anytime soon, Joe Burrow is not getting
traded anything. You know, who gets traded the people that
(32:09):
are on their last legs, like Sam Darnold who's turned
it around, Baker Mayfield, who's turned it around. People like
that are the ones that get traded that are on
their last legs. People like Bryce Young are the ones
that get traded. Not Josh Allen, So Carolina Panthers. Mm hmmm,
(32:30):
all right, everyone that's gonna do it for tonight and
that's actually gonna do it for me this week. I
do have a show on Friday, stick around, you can
stick around for that'll be the best of But I
will be back Live in and Living Color on Monday night.
So until then, have a great holiday, have a safe holiday.
My name is Brett Jenson, and you have been listening
to Breaking with Brett Jensen.
Hi Oh, let's go. Hi oh, let's go. Oh, Let's
go oh, Let's go.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
News Talk eleven ten and ninety nine three WBT Brett
Jensen here with you on this Liven and Living Color,
by the way, on this Wednesday Night of Breaking with
Brett Jensen, as we go up until seven o'clock tonight
on this Thanksgiving Eve. You know, we have Christmas Eve
and we have New Year's Eve, but that's about the
only eves that we actually celebrate. But Thanksgiving Eve. I
(00:55):
will tell you this, so I grew up in the
By the way, what just happened here is exactly why
I like doing what I do, because I came in
and I'll get to what I was gonna talk about later.
We're gonna talk about how the Arena law goes into
effect on Monday. The next time I talk to you
(01:16):
will be on Monday when the Arena of Zeriska Law
goes into effect and a lot of people are gonna
have to stay in jail, not getting out any more
cashle spell thing of the past gone. We're gonna get
into that. We're gonna get into Gary mc fatten put
out another statement about the border patrol and everything else
he put that out earlier today, We're gonna get it
in the Carolina Panthers. How they stunk it up? And
is Bryce Young? Like Bryce Young? Dude? Really? But anyways,
(01:42):
but this so everyone in the studio can tell you
the exact same thing. Lonnie can tell you this. Travers
can tell you this. Isaac could tell you this. Tommy
before them could tell you this. TJ could tell you this.
Not TJ Ritchie, the previous TJ that was the producer.
That's no over at there. Look right, they can all
ta you the same thing. Lennie, grab the mic real quick.
(02:06):
How many notes do I bring in? Zero? Zero notes? Yeah?
Like I know what I want to talk about in
my head and the bullet points are in my brain.
Now I've seen the notes in the briefcase that like
Pete bring in and he's got a three hour show,
so he has to do that, and Warnerable will have
a ton of stuff and audio because he's got a
three hour show. I'm like, no, let's go, I got
(02:27):
everything in my brain. I just come in, I sit down.
I get to the station at today, I got to
the station at six oh two. The show starts at
six oh five, right, that. But so, you know, so
I tend to add lib a lot. Yeah, you know.
So what I was going to say is is that
you know, we don't celebrate Eve's New Year's even Christmas Eve,
(02:49):
that's it, right, Not July fourth Eve, not Thanksgiving Eve,
not Halloween Eve, none of that. Right. But I can
tell you on Thanksgiving Eve in the restaurant industry, like
this is just I was just gonna go down this
rabbit hole. This is what I do when I add
LIB on Thanksgiving Eve. I grew up in the restaurant industry.
(03:13):
I've had every job you can imagine as in the
restaurant world. My very first job, at fifteen years old
was as a busboy at the Western Sizzling in Gastonia
on Garrison. I was fifteen years old, all right, did that.
And then I worked as a waiter and I was horrible.
(03:35):
I was such a bad waiter that they actually came
up with the nickname super Server because I was so bad,
like making fun of me, how a baud because I
hated every customer, like I I walk up and like.
But then I went to bartender and I killed it,
knocked out of the park. And even when I was
(03:58):
at ESPN and living in Athens, Georgia, I would bartend
like once every two weeks something like that, just to
make money, not even be on payroll, just just because
it was something different, even just because I liked I
always liked bartending, always liked it. And then when I
moved to Charlotte in O nine and I didn't work
for a year, took a year off, and I was
(04:22):
one of the bartenders that helped opened. I only worked
one day week, generally only Mondays, and it was at
Pacos Tacos. And that's where I met a super restaurant
tours Charlotte, Frank Sabelli Chabelle. Right, he's like the guy
in rest in Charlotte for restaurants Mama Recta's and Midwood
Smokehouse and Pacos Tacos and like, you know, all that
(04:45):
great stuff and he's a good guy. So and then
I was even a bar manager for a while. Like
so again, I and my dad owned five Domino's Pizza stores,
and when he got sick, I went up there and
helped run them and like ran the operator, helped run
the operations for five Domino's Pizza stores up in Jersey
(05:06):
in the South Jersey Shore, wild Wood, Cape, May Sea Isle.
Stuff like that. One thing is been universally true in
my time in the restaurant industry. Thanksgiving Eve and Thanksgiving Night. Okay,
(05:27):
Thanksgiving Eve and Thanksgiving Night. If you are a bar
slash restaurant, but a bar, you know, whether it's like
Angry L's or McCoy's or Hickory Tavern or Moosehead whatever, right,
whatever the case may be, If you are a bar,
you will be packed, absolutely packed, usually on Thanksgiving Eve
(05:51):
and almost always on Thanksgiving Night, almost always why relatives
are in out of town. No one has to work
on Friday, right, They've been stuck with their sorry ass
in laws all day and they want to get out
of the house or the cousins that they don't like
or whatever, or the weird ants, the crazy ants, or
the inappropriate uncle. Every family has a crazy nd and
(06:15):
every family has an inappropriate uncle's. That's just I've been
saying that forever every like I will tell you my family,
crazy aunt, inappropriate uncle, and I've never met a family
that didn't have one of those. Just make sure you're
not the crazy ant or the inappropriate uncle. Well, just
make sure. Jennal was the rule. If you can't find
(06:36):
out who the inappropriate uncle or the crazy end is,
it might be you. But anyways, so tonight is usually
like a big celebration night, but especially Tomorrow night. So
if you're a bar slash restaurant, you need to be
open tonight. And I know it sucks for your employees
(06:56):
and maybe you, you know, do very little in the
kitchen work where you just only are doing appetizers. You're
not doing real food. You're only doing app stuff that
you can deep fry, where you turn not to fryer.
Maybe that's it. Thanksgiving Thanksgiving Eve, it's a good night
to go out, and especially Thanksgiving night football games on.
(07:17):
Everyone's watching football games. Thanksgiving's over by six o'clock usually,
like most people eat Thanksgiving around two o'clock, three o'clock
in there, so it's over seven o'clock, eight o'clock. You
want to go out. If you're a bar, you should
be open. I promise you that. And some of my
biggest nights as a bartender were on Thanksgiving night and
(07:38):
Thanksgiving Eve. All right, so when we come back, let's
get into the arena Zarotska law and what it actually
means in the impact that it's going to have here locally.
You will notice an impact and in a positive way,
in a very very positive way, you will notice it.
(08:15):
Welcome back to breaking with Brad Jensen on this Thanksgiving
Eve as we go up until seven o'clock seven oh four, five,
seven eleven ten. All right, so coming up on Monday,
on Monday, you need to understand and yes, this does
impact you, This absolutely does. It impacts every single person
(08:38):
listening to my voice in Mecklimbore County and in some
cases people in neighboring counties. The Arena Zaruska law now
goes into effect, although the neighboring counties don't have the
issues that Mecklimbre County does in terms of activists, magistrates
and judges. But starting on Monday, the Arena Zeriskal Law
(09:02):
goes into effect. They voted on it and that was
the famous incident where Watson Bradley voted against it. Mecklimure
County senator represents like South Park and Matthews and Mint
Hill and the Providence area right Rayroad, Piper Glenn, that
(09:22):
whole area. So she voted against it, just so you know.
But what this does is it finally says, and it
took the fact that it took a state law tells
you all you need to know about activist judges, specifically
here in Mecklinburre County. But here's what it did. The
(09:44):
law says, all right, pre trial releases for repeat offenders
or violent crimes, no more. To Carlos Brown had a
lot of violent crimes. A lot of people had had
a lot of violent crimes. And you saw the was
it the fifteen year old had been arrested like one
hundred and twenty times, one hundred and fifty times, whatever
(10:05):
it is, fifteen years old walking the streets. So this
law says, nope, no more, no more. They passed the
bill and it gets rid of written promises to appear,
which is exactly what the Carlos Brown had. Oh do
you promise to appear at your next to court appearance?
(10:28):
And while waiting murdered Arena Zaruska, right, murdered Arena Zerutska.
So that takes into effect. Also cashless bail gone gone.
So if you are a repeat offender or charged with
a violent crime, you do not get written promises. You
(10:50):
actually have to one come up with bail. No more
cashless bail. No more written promises. Yeah, because you know
the promise of someone that committed a hardcore violent crime. Yeah,
his words good, his or her word. Yeah, they're good,
they're good. Yeah. No need to worry there, No need
(11:13):
to worry there. So judges or magistrates will also have
to consider a suspect's criminal history when granting pre trial
release and will have to enter a written finding a
fact if they do so. All right, you actually have
to give a you know, like the Supreme Court gives
a written verdict. They have the pro and the against.
(11:37):
You know what I'm saying, like the dissenting voice and
the agreeing voice. So now they have to give statements. Right, Well,
now the judge will have to enter a written finding
a fact if they actually grant a pre trial release,
because you have to consider all the circumstances going on.
You have to consider everything going on. So what does
(12:01):
this mean for the jails? Guess what? A lot more
people getting ready to be putting that jail because now
you don't get pre child release, Now you don't have
cashless fail So what does that mean? That means the
jail is going to be have a lot more people.
I think they're even from what I understand, they're even
putting bunk beds in there. Because Charlotte has a lot
(12:26):
of crime regardless, and in spite of what CMPD and
the city leaders tell you there have not been honest
with you. And I've been trying to document that from
day one. Oh, Charlotte's safe. Oh really, murders are up
to we're up two hundred percent through October and uptown.
(12:47):
And how's that crime rate been going since July first? Hell,
how's that crime rate been going since August first? Okay?
All right, Now, the crime tends to go down a
little bit in the winter months because not as many
people are hanging outside when it's thirty five degrees outside.
(13:09):
Now we're not quite to the thirty five, although it's
gonna begin getting down there at night, coming up like
especially all next week and starting like tomorrow night or whatever. Right,
So you know, McFadden, he understands that more people will
be put into the jail for longer periods of time.
Why longer periods of time because they now have to
(13:29):
come up with bail and you may not have a
bail bondsman going dude, you've stabbed three people in the
past six years. You think I'm giving you bail money, Like,
what are the odds of you showing up or trying to? Like,
so it's gonna be difficult. So yeah, more people will
be staying in jail longer before they can come up
with money to get out. The get out of the
(13:52):
Pokey the joint, right, I still love the Pokey. That
might be my favorite name. So there's a lot going on.
There's a lot going on. But again, Arena's law eliminates
the written promise to appear in court, right, it eliminates that.
(14:17):
Now my fans like, look, we're probably gonna have to
get more staff, Like we've got the space, we just
probably are going to need more staff. And he's right,
he's one hundredercent right. But it also creates a new
pre child release procedure again that requires judicial officials. And
(14:40):
this is coming straight from a rapport. I'm just reading
a verbatim for people who are charged with violent offenses
and have been subject to involuntary commitment. Right, Like, there's
a lot going on here now and a lot of
the Democrats are all up upset because you know why,
(15:01):
it's actually going to put criminals in jail they're upset
about that. The county commissioners are having a meltdown. Oh
my god, don't forget there hasn't been a Republican on
the county commissioners since twenty eighteen. Twenty eighteen was the
last time there was a Republican on the Meclimore County Commissioners.
(15:22):
And again, it's funny how they talk about jerrymandering across
the state, but yet the Democrats jerrymandered the hell out
of the districts in Mecklimore County to ensure that Republicans
never get elected at county commission just so you know,
just want you didn't know that. But anyways, a lot
of that's going on Arena Zaruska's law goes into effect Monday.
(15:45):
And why does it impact you, Because in theory, the
streets should actually be a little bit safer because you
have to go to jail. You don't get to get
out on a written promise. You actually have to put
up a bail in a bond. So there you go,
that's that's actually a good thing. Despite the county commissioners
(16:07):
having a complete and utter meltdown, Oh my god, these
poor people, they're gonna have to go to jail. Yeah,
never mind the victims again, the viylyiles theory. Let's let's
sympathize with the aggressors, not those who were attacked. All right,
When we come back, let's speak of Gary McFadden. He
put out a letter again today talking about border patrol.
(16:30):
So we'll go over that and the Carolina Panthers not good.
Welcome back to Breaking with Brett Jensen on this What
(16:52):
a Got Wednesday night edition of Breaking with Brett Jenson,
as we go up until seven o'clock to night against
seven oh four five, seven eleven ten. Okay, So Arena
Zarusko's law starts on Monday. We just went over that
and what it all means and what exactly it is
and everything else. Right, Well, McFadden put out a statement
this afternoon, and I'm just I'm gonna read most of it.
(17:15):
It's not very long, and I may skip a paragraph
or two because a little bit like towards the end
of it is a little bit like it's not relevant,
to be honest with you, But the headline is CBP
Customs and Border Patrol or excuse me, protection, Customs and
Border Protection. That's what it stands for. CBP leaves Charlotte
(17:39):
tangled in web of confusion, bitten with mistrust, and filled
with venomous fear. I will say this his headline, I
know his PR person, I said, ILL have a headline
that's actually a pretty solid headline. You know, because the
name of the operation was Charlotte's Web. Right, leaves Charlotte
(18:00):
tangled in the web of confusion, bitten with mistrust, and
filled with venomous fear. As we all know, the recent
Customs and Border Patrol Charlotte's Web operation created confusion, fear,
and mistrust throughout Mecklimore County. But let me be perfectly clear,
the Melcklimore County Sheriff's Office played no role in causing
(18:25):
that confusion. So who are the people that are in fear?
Haven't we gone over this a million times? All right?
Show a hands of everyone in the room that was
in fear last week, Show a hands exactly right, Like, okay,
(18:50):
I know hispanics that were going to work every day,
everything else, and no big deal. You know why, because
they knew they were here legally and there they were fine,
didn't care, right, Those that are living in fear were
the eight percent of Meclimore County that shouldn't be here,
ninety to one hundred thousand that didn't have a green
(19:11):
card that came over the border illegally, all right. I
continue that confusion stemmed from lack of transparency, coordination, and communication,
and the rigid spread of incomplete or inaccurate information. Meanwhile,
rumors and speculation have taken on a life of their own.
(19:32):
And while others are guessing the ms the MCSO Mechlmore
County show office is only dealing in facts when it
comes to the CBP operations. Yes, misinformation like a fifteen
year old was handcuffed and zip tide, or he was
(19:52):
a twenty year old criminal, or he was a twenty
year old criminal. Okay, that was the misinformation. MSNBC actually
said children being arrested off the street, or it was
a twenty year old criminal one of the other. Don't
let the facts get in the way of a good story.
(20:12):
The Democrats are all too well known for that. Don't
let the facts get in the way of a good story.
Here are the facts. As McFadden continues, the Sheriff's office
did not assist, participate, coordinate, relay any information, or engage
in any enforcement action, arrest or operation connected to Charlotte's Web.
(20:36):
One hundred percent true, one hundred cent true. The Sheriff's
office has no information regarding the estimated three hundred and
seventy to four hundred individuals detained or arrested under civil
immigration authorities or criminal warrants. True sent true, Umm, No
citizens or undocumented individuals arrested or detained for any civil
(21:00):
immigration related defense or any criminal offense were brought to
the Meccanburg County Detention Center for processing. Again all one
percent true. Border Patrol and Ice did this all on
their own. And I will tell you one of the reasons,
let me let me put it this way, instead of
(21:21):
me telling you my guess, is this my educated guess.
Is the reason they don't generally involve local law enforcement,
because where have they been going San Francisco, La, Chicago, Boston, Baltimore, DC.
They don't get a lot of help from the local
(21:42):
police department these matter of things. They get almost no
help from the local police departments. Portland. We all know
what's going on in Portland where it was what over
one hundred straight days they were outside the Ice detention
center in Portland and the police department in Baltimore, excuse me,
in Portland refused to do anything. Don't forget it's to
Portland that during the riots of twenty twenty, Antifa there
(22:06):
literally tried to burn down the federal courthouse one hundred
and five straight days. I want you to think about that,
and they did nothing to try to prevent it.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
That.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
All they did was put up like guard around the courthouse.
One hundred and five straight days they tried to burn
down the courthouse. Antifa out there in ice in Portland,
now over one hundred straight days of out there and
local residents complaining, going, dude, we can't sleep. They're on
their bull horns at four o'clock in the morning talk
about the protesters, Antifa and the Portland Police Department. They
(22:41):
were told to stand down and do nothing by city officials,
even though your own residents, who all voted for you,
by the way, are complaining you stood down. So I
understand why the federal law enforcement, in terms of ICE
(23:02):
or border patrol, or even sometimes maybe the FBI. I
understand why they don't tell anyone what's going on. I
get that CMPD has over two thousand employees. You think
two thousand people can keep his secret. If they could,
I won't be able to have all my information. I
get my information from people that tell me things right.
(23:24):
The only communication the Sheriff's officers received regarding the Border
Patrol activity in Charlotte was a brief heads up from
federal officials that Border Patrol personnel would arrive on Saturday,
November sixteenth. Our agency received a follow up message five
days later that they would depart on Thursday. Any other
news that would be reported thereafter his false Well, no, see,
(23:48):
that's where he's wrong, And I would tell the sheriff
this to us straight to his face. That's where he's
wrong because he's saying that he got the information from
federal authorities saying that they're leaving Thursday morning, which they did.
Organization said it ain't over. As a matter of fact,
they put out another The head guy for Border Patrol
put out another tweet today in a video going it
(24:08):
ain't over. It ain't over, So you can't say, yes,
they told us that it's over, therefore their believe. But
then they come back and say it's not over. They're
not to be to be believed. They're the ones in control,
not McFadden. He doesn't have to say so in that
(24:29):
So if they say they're coming back, odds are they're
probably coming back. So and he's right what he says.
Immigration didn't suddenly become an issue when border patrol arrived
in Charlotte. Our community has been grappling with the immigration
challenges since the day took office in December of twenty eighteen.
(24:49):
And that is true because he refused to do twenty
seven eighty Was it twenty twenty seven eighty G? I
think it is two seven eight zero G. I think
that's twenty twenty eight G twenty seven G where shares
cooperate with ICE. He ran on the platform that he
would not cooperate with ICE, and ICE made him a
national figure, you know, And now McFadden for the last
(25:12):
two months has been cooperating with ICE. So a lot. Look,
he's not wrong there. It has been an issue, a
big issue, some of it self inflicted, self induced. But
it's been an issue, not all of it, but some
of it has been self induced. All Right, when we
come back, we'll wrap up a little bit about this
and also talk about I know we're supposed to go
(25:33):
into the holidays thinking nice things. But after what happened
Monday night with the Carolina Panthers, it's kind of hard
to say anything nice about the Panthers. Welcome back to
Breaking with Brett Jens for a few more minutes here
(25:55):
on this Thanksgiving Eve. Go ahead of libations, before I
head out, before I get to the before I go
turn it in for the night. All right, real quick, everyone,
I want I want to tell you this. Okay, We've
got the kids first thing, right, the bike drive that's
(26:18):
next week, Friday, December fifth, from five to nine pm.
And it's going to be it's gonna be big. It's
big every single year, every single year we're doing this,
and it's the Hancock's Bike Drive, Hancocks Bikes for Kids
drive right part of the kids first of the Carolinas.
(26:42):
And if you live in Gaston County and you don't
want to drive all the way into Meckleborough County, I
get it, trust me, I get it. You can also
go by Watson Insurance in Belmont. There's a bike drop
off there three or two East Kataba Street right there
in Belmont. So again again a lot of different ways
you can do this, and we're gonna be broadcasting live
(27:02):
from five to nine on air. All the WBT staff, Boomer,
We're all going to be there. Ed Billock really coordinates
all of this. He's like the guy who coordinates almost
every single thing, and a lot of this won't be
able to be done without him, so he is. He's
much appreciated in all of this. And again there's a
(27:25):
there's a lot going on where people are going to
be able to. Like I said, when you pull up
with a bike, well, so you only have one, it
doesn't matter, or you've got eight in the back of
your truck. You don't even have to get out of
your car. We will come up and take it out
of your car for you. And by the way, just
(27:46):
so you know, there's there's a possibility that you may
even be put on air. A lot of times when
you drive up in your car, somebody will walk over
with the microphone and go, Hi, what's your name? Where
are you from? Usually like Beth or or whatever. Where
are you from? What's your name? Winterbow does that a
lot too, And why did you come high by here?
(28:07):
For the bikes? For kids? You know, like there's a
chance there's a fifty to fifty chance you're gonna be
put on air, just so you know, So don't be
cut off guard by that. All right, all right, caught
off guard. That's one thing that forty nine ers were
not on Monday Night with the Carolina Panthers, Bryce Shng
clearly last week against the Atlanta Falcons was fool's gold.
(28:30):
He's had two good games this year, one against Arizona,
and I mean he's had other good games where he
was asked not to do anything and that's fine, and
he didn't lose the game. He was doing what he
We don't need you to win the game, Brice, just
don't lose the game. Well, this was an equal thing
with Bryce she Young and Dave Canalis, like they both
(28:50):
did a very poor job Monday night. Bryce she Young
one hundred and sixty nine yards, two interceptions, quarterback rating
of sixty by the way, in case you don't know,
that sucks. A quarterback rating of sixty sucks, just so
you know. But here's the problem with Dave Canal's part.
(29:12):
This is where Dave really really messed up. He literally
ran the ball nine times and they're supposed to be
a run first team and he ran the ball nine
times and guess what when he ran the ball. Chuba
Hubbard averaged six point three yards of carry. Six carries
only six point three yard. I mean, that's that's incredible.
(29:34):
Cheba Hubbard only ranted three times average five yards of
carry like they were doing what they needed to do
and gaining in Dave Canals for some inexplicable reason said
you know what, bright young, we're relying on your right arm,
all five foot ten of you, all one and eighty
(29:55):
eight pounds of you. He's been in the league with
this is his thing. He still looks like a twelve
year old. People after they get to be about twenty
two twenty three, they start putting on more muscle and
more weight, and they get a little bit thicker, right
like the Freak show the Human Praying Mannas in the NBA,
(30:19):
Victor Winmbayama, who's like seven foot six, came in the
size of a pencil. He's still a pencil, but at
least he's gained like twenty thirty pounds right from the
time he was drafted to where he is now. I
don't know if Price hasn't gained any weight, but he
still looks like he's one hundred and eighty eight pounds,
five foot ten, and he looks like my little brother,
(30:43):
my little brother when I was twenty, and my little
brother would have been fifteen. And that's not a slide
against Bryce, but this is just that's who he is.
And I was on wfn Z earlier in the week
and they asked me, am, I, Dave Kannalis, guy, if
I have to get rid of one, Dave Canalis or
Bryce Young. I said, I'm getting rid of Bryce Young
(31:04):
all day, every day. It's not even a question. I
thought Bryce Young's career was over last year when he
got benched after a couple of games, and then he
came on the second half of last season and looked
like a million dollars and everyone got excited. And even
with all this turmoil, there's still six and six and
they're right there, like a half a game out of
the playoffs, so winning the division. They've got five games
(31:26):
to go, they get a bye week of these last
five games, and anything can happen. But Bryce Young, nice,
sirn sir Nope, keep them one more year. Keep him
next year. His rookie contract to be over, and you
can draft somebody else, or try and sign somebody else,
