Charles Sauer, Economist/President-The Market Institute & Julio Rivera, (aka the ConservaRican) Editorial Director-Reactionary Times/Columnist-Newsmax.Reaganomics has finally come to an end. On Tuesday - the Republican-controlled state legislature overrode a veto by Republican Governor Sam Brownback and rolled back his signature tax cuts. When Brownback signed those tax cuts for the extremely rich into law back in 2012 - he said they would boost job growth and improve the economy. That hasn't happened. Instead of improving the economy - Brownback's cuts have ruined it. Since 2013 - tax revenues have declined by $570 million - resulting in massive budget shortfalls and savage cuts to public education, as well as multiple downgrades of Kansas's credit rating. Job growth - meanwhile - has lagged way behind the rest of the country. Isn't it time for you guys to admit Reaganomics is a failed ideology?

Iran is blaming Saudi Arabia and by proxy the United States today after ISIS killed 12 people and wounded 42 more in a brazen attack in heart of Tehran.

Republican Louisiana Congressman Clay Higgins is under fire today after posting a wildly Islamophobic rant to his verified Facebook page. That rant was a response to the London terrorist attacks - which prompted Higgins to claim that "The free world... all of Christendom... is at war with Islamic horror.” Higgins went on to refer to "Islamic radicals" as "heathen animals" and tell his 200,000 Facebook followers that, "Every conceivable measure should be engaged to hunt them down. Hunt them, identify them, and kill them. Kill them all. For the sake of all that is good and righteous. Kill them all.” How is this kind of Clash of Civilizations language any different than the kind of stuff we hear from the Taliban or Al Qaeda?
