Tune in here to this Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the recently released Robert Hur tapes and President Joe Biden’s reported cancer diagnosis. While expressing sincere well-wishes for Biden’s health and recovery, Brett makes clear that this sympathy doesn’t excuse what he views as a deeply flawed presidency. He criticizes Biden’s leadership as unfocused and driven by those around him, pointing to various scandals and policy failures, including border security, foreign policy, and infrastructure neglect. Later Brett discusses a significant Supreme Court ruling in favor of President Trump, allowing him to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for over 300,000 Venezuelans. The 8–1 decision, with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissenting, reverses a Biden administration move to extend protections due to instability in Venezuela. Brett argues this ruling reasserts executive authority over immigration policy and criticizes the use of lower federal courts to block national decisions.

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program talking about a horrifying crime in Lancaster, where a group of teens — all undocumented and some as young as 13 — allegedly murdered Larisha Thompson in a planned robbery gone wrong. Outraged, Brett slams what he sees as a failure of immigration and justice policies, highlighting the suspects’ use of WhatsApp to coordinate the attack and their chilling post-crime messages. He criticizes media coverage for using soft language like “botched burglary” instead of calling it what it was: cold-blooded murder. Brett urges listeners to confront the hard truth — that this tragedy might have been prevented with stronger border enforcement and tougher consequences for violent youth offenders.
