Tune in here to this ​Wednesday edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen with Jeff Atkinson from the WBT Newsroom filling in!

Jeff Atkinson kicks off the show by giving a two-minute overview of President Trump’s address to Congress last night. He then brings on Robert Wilkie, a former member of President Trump’s first cabinet and current Senior National Security Analyst at Newsmax, to discuss last night’s speech. Wilkie also shares some behind-the-scenes knowledge of the president’s transition team.

Jeff also talks about the growth in Charlotte, with over 100 people moving to Mecklenburg County and the surrounding counties per day. David Hodges from WBTV joins the show to discuss the dangers this influx may cause, with lax building codes being passed to enable new housing projects to speed up to meet demand.

Later, Jeff brings on economist and writer Stephen Moore to discuss North Carolina’s tax cuts. Moore shares his goal of North Carolina becoming the 10th state in the country with no income tax and dispels the myth that decreasing taxes only benefits the rich.
