Brett was wildly popular as the host of The Comments Section. Not only did she have a keen grasp on political and news-related situations, but she was good at breaking things down for her audience.
However, in early December 2024, she began to be plagued by rumors that she was fired from Daily Wire. Then on Dec. 10, 2024, she hosted her last The Comments Section and explained that while she was not fired, she was indeed cutting ties with Daily Wire and going in another direction.
An emotional Brett gushed about her time and experiences with Daily Wire, pouring her heart and soul into the channel. In her farewell episode, Brett explained, "Hey guys, some of you have heard the rumors online and the rumors are mostly true. Today, Dec. 10th will be my last day hosting The Comments Section and working for The Daily Wire. It is not true that I am being forced out. It was my own choice to leave and believe me this is bittersweet."
The potential Brett has to go anywhere after The Comments Section really speaks to her skills in adaptability and content creation.
