Midterms, Iran & Rubio Focus On The Brett Winterble Show

from The Brett Winterble Show · host Urban One

Tune in here to this Tuesdays edition of the Brett Winterble Show!  Brett kicks off the program by talking about voter priorities and immigration policy as the midterm elections approach. He opens by asking listeners to identify the single most important issue influencing their vote, emphasizing how political narratives and media coverage can distract from core concerns. Brett highlights polling that suggests a significant portion of Americans perceive Democrats as supporting more lenient border policies, framing immigration and public safety as central campaign issues. We’re joined by Charles Moskowitz, author and political commentator, to discuss escalating tensions in the Middle East and broader questions around national sovereignty and security. Moskowitz argues that stability in the region depends on a “peace through strength” approach, emphasizing that nations like Israel have endured by firmly defending their sovereignty. He draws parallels between radical Islamist ideology and past expansionist movements, suggesting that containment—rather than direct invasion—is the most effective strategy, much like Cold War policies toward the Soviet Union. Bo Thompson from Good Morning BT is also here for this latest episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Bo Thompson talk about ongoing tensions with Iran and the uncertainty surrounding diplomatic efforts, as well as the rising profile of Marco Rubio within the current administration. They discuss how negotiations with Iran remain complicated by questions over leadership and trust, while noting Rubio’s steady and disciplined presence on the global stage. Bo highlights how the administration appears to be balancing diplomacy with the possibility of tougher action if talks fail. He also shares what he and the team have coming up later this week on Good Morning BT, including coverage of the Truist Championship at Quail Hollow Club Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!
