In this hour of The Burning Truth with Casey Hendrickson, we dive into the latest in corporate and government controversies. McDonald’s is taking legal action against Tyson Foods, alleging that the company is manipulating the beef supply chain to drive up prices. We also unpack explosive claims against Doug Emhoff, the Second Gentleman, as former staff accuse him of inappropriate behavior at a Los Angeles law firm. On the governmental front, Secretary Mayorkas asserts that FEMA has no disaster funds available, despite an IG report revealing that the agency is sitting on billions. To complicate matters, the FEMA head states they have cash for near-term aid, leading to confusion. Lastly, we discuss a surprising report about the government sending electric chainsaws to an Appalachian town still without power.
Casey Hendrickson Show Recap: DeSantis Slams Harris, Trump Gains Working-Class Support, FEMA Funds Under Scrutiny
Hour 1 Recap:
A Springfield resident captured a shocking moment involving a Haitian migrant in a “pet-friendly” apartment complex. The incident was featured on CNN, raising questions about the situation. Governor Ron DeSantis also made headlines for his sharp critique of Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing her of lying about a phone call with Milton. DeSantis slammed Harris, stating she has “never contributed anything.” President Biden’s team appeared to distance themselves from the controversy, as Harris was caught lying about the DeSantis call, with many seeing Biden’s reaction as a move to throw her under the bus.
Pastor Lucas Miles led this week’s Tuesday Tithe, a faith-based segment that resonates with many. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump continues to dominate the headlines. His support among union and working-class voters has surged, marking the highest approval for a Republican candidate in four decades. The Teamsters Union President added fuel to the fire, candidly telling comedian Theo Von that Democrats have “f**ked us over” for the last 40 years.
Hour 2 Recap:
In business news, McDonald’s is suing Tyson Foods for allegedly manipulating the beef supply chain to raise prices. The lawsuit comes as supply chain issues continue to affect various industries. In a bombshell report, Doug Emhoff, the Second Gentleman, faces claims of misogynistic behavior during his time at a Los Angeles law firm. Former staff accuse Emhoff of hiring a “trophy secretary” and retaliating against women who didn’t engage with his flirtatious behavior.
In disaster relief news, FEMA’s funding has become a hot topic. While Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed that the agency has no more disaster funds, an IG report contradicted this, revealing that FEMA is sitting on billions of dollars. Following these claims, FEMA’s head clarified that the agency has cash for near-term aid, despite the ongoing debate about its financial health. Meanwhile, an unusual government decision sent electric chainsaws to an Appalachian town still struggling without power.
Hour 3 Recap:
In political news, Pennsylvania scheduled an update to its voter-registration website on the same day as former President Trump’s Butler rally, raising eyebrows among his supporters. In media coverage, CBS claimed that Trump backed out of an interview with 60 Minutes, but his campaign stated that he never agreed to the interview in the first place. Trump later revealed the terms he would accept for appearing on 60 Minutes, challenging the network’s credibility. Meanwhile, Vice President Harris faced another embarrassment as CBS reportedly edited out her fumbling “word salad” response during her interview, further feeding criticism of her performance.
Stay tuned for further developments on these stories and more updates on the latest political drama!

On Monday, July 29, I was tagged in several social media posts about two school buses dropping migrants off at the South Bend Social Security office. People had expressed that they couldn’t utilize the office’s services because of the number of people there.
The people dropped off at the SSA building were all young men who appeared to be Mexican, Central, or South American. Most likely they were migrants. People asked that I look into it. I did.
Rep. Jim Banks, who’s also running for Senate in Indiana also shared a post about the buses in South Bend.
Hoosiers are seeing the real-life consequences of three years of Kamala Harris as border czar ⬇️ https://t.co/MfwlVL1cRG
That particular post he responded to was removed, but others remain.
Vice President Kamala Harris was routinely labeled as Biden’s ‘border czar’ by the news media. The Democrats and many in the media are trying to erase that historical fact.
South Bend Mayor James Mueller issued this statement to the South Bend Tribune:
“This was a group of lawful, documented residents at the social security office,” Mueller, a Democrat, said in a written statement. “Rep. Jim Banks is a shameful opportunist, spreading racist political lies instead of advancing real solutions for South Bend or our nation’s broken immigration system.”
Before he issued the statement, Mayor Mueller’s spokeswoman told the paper:
the mayor’s office learned enough about the situation to know that the people were at the Social Security office lawfully conducting business.
Given that migrants who have no legal standing to stay in the U.S. often get released into the country pending their hearing, it’s certainly a concern that these might be illegal immigrants, or asylum seekers who don’t qualify for asylum under the law. This is a common issue with the country’s border policies. Allowing migrants who crossed the border illegally to remain in the U.S. after being captured is a signature complaint about Biden’s border policy.
I contacted Mayor Mueller’s office since he didn’t answer people’s questions about the migrants at the SSA building to see if I could get more information.
Here’s what I sent him:
After talking about the issue in my first segment on my radio show, Mayor Mueller’s office decided to send this response:
Rep. Jim Banks made no such assertions in his post. It was more ad hominem attacks from the Mayor’s office and the questions weren’t answered.
Finally, I was sent the response from the SSA about the migrant buses in South Bend from someone else who was working on this issue (I erased the name of the recipient):
If the Mayor’s office hadn’t kept this all close to the vest and was just honest about what was happening, people might not have been as angry as they were. Instead, they chose to hurl false insults and attacks at people who were just trying to figure out what was going on.
