Listen Later

In Hour 3 of The Burning Truth with Casey Hendrickson, we expose how Indiana’s SB1 is more than it seems—revealing a sneaky income tax hike set to hit in 2028. We break down the revised Local Income Tax (LIT) structure and what it means for Hoosiers. Elsewhere, a federal judge blocks Arkansas’ Digital ID law, raising questions about surveillance and civil liberties. And in the lighter side of the news, KFC launches chicken-flavored toothpaste, and the media loses it over Trump’s plan for a patriotic parade to celebrate the U.S. Army's 250th birthday.

🏛️ Indiana’s SB1: Hidden Income Tax Hike for Hoosiers

Indiana Senate Bill 1 (SB1) is being promoted as “tax reform,” but it’s a bait-and-switch income tax increase with changes beginning in 2028.

New LIT (Local Income Tax) Structure Highlights:

  • Total max LIT rate for counties: 2.9%

  • Counties may impose:

    1. Up to 1.2% for general purposes

    2. Up to 0.4% for fire and EMS

    3. Up to 0.2% for nonmunicipal civil units

    4. Up to 1.2% for eligible cities/towns

  • Municipal LIT rate of up to 1.2% for towns with over 3,500 people

  • These rates will apply only to residents within the taxing municipalities

📌 What this means: Higher local tax burdens are coming—disguised as reform.

🦷 KFC Launches Chicken-Flavored Toothpaste

Yes, you read that right. KFC is debuting a fried chicken-flavored toothpaste.

  • It's unclear if it’s real or a PR stunt, but it’s definitely making waves online

  • Netizens are divided: "Genius marketing" or "Why does this exist?"

🍗 Either way, it’s finger-lickin’ bizarre.

⚖️ Judge Blocks Arkansas’ Digital ID Law

A federal judge halted Arkansas' controversial Digital ID law, which required age verification and identity checks on social media.

Key details:

  • Law struck down over privacy and constitutional concerns

  • Arkansas lawmakers quickly draft a revised version with:

    • Digital ID requirements

    • VPN restrictions for age checks

🛑 Is this about protecting kids—or controlling the internet?

🎖️ Media Spins Trump’s Army Parade as “Authoritarian”

President Trump plans a 250th birthday parade for the U.S. Army, but the media—specifically The Hill—tries to frame it as militaristic overreach.

  • Legacy media outlets use clickbait to trigger outrage

  • Casey breaks down the parade’s real purpose: patriotism, not posturing

🇺🇸 Apparently, celebrating the Army’s history is now controversial—if Trump’s involved.
