Scheduling Note…Our online blog/newsletter/magazine will cut back to just one posting per week. Always keep checking back whenever some new earthshaking bombshell headline hits the news, from which we’ll always chime in with our comments & newsfeed articles. But otherwise we’ll only be delivering The Voice of Reason and Common Sense (www.TheVORACS.com) to you at the end of the weekend, either Sunday night or Monday, while looking to be more selective on the links we choose. I had actually intended to cut back last year, then Ukraine, impeachment & a pandemic came along (what a year of mayhem!). And my current audience certainly knows where I stand. As a lifelong Republican I now fully support the Dems, since at least they’re still sane & not part of a cult.
For this blog to fulfill the purpose for which it is intended (replacing Trump & his echo in order to save the GOP & American democracy), it needs to gain a much larger audience. So we’re seeking a sponsor, PAC &/or social media group who can take our message to the next level (any references are appreciated), since these next 6 months will be critical for informing American voters of the facts, especially with the sobering reality our current president is a clear & present danger. This is important information lots more people need to see in making a real impact. If such outside assistance can be found, we can then once again increase the frequency of our posts. America’s future is dependent upon getting the word out, since reelecting this president would have dire & possibly catastrophic consequences for our country.
Part 1
Crime Report…A thoroughly corrupted presidency will go to any lengths in suppressing evidence/witnesses to hide the extent of his multiple crimes. Anybody who wants to take the time to look back in our archives, it’s all there. From the conspiracies with Russia/Ukraine, the campaign finance violations, defrauding contractors, university students & charities, plus tax fraud among many other offenses, Trump through the years has been shown to be a man with no moral compass or regard for the law. He also has no regard for anyone but himself. So be assured, in all our Part 1’s through the years we’ve posted irrefutable evidence of Trump’s crime syndicate, from our commentaries to thousands of links taking us to articles from major news sources. But with the White House having engaged in an unprecedented level of obstruction of justice, there’s so much more we have yet to learn.
Among the Part 1 articles below, Trump & his corrupt AG pulled the strings to keep Cohen in jail while trying to intimidate him from releasing a tell-all book. Part of Cohen’s prison sentence was for the campaign finance crimes where Trump was named as an unindicted co-conspirator, which we’ve seen a number of Trump associates paying the price for doing his bidding. Meanwhile, Flynn, Stone & McGahn are pivotal players to the Russian collusion caper which Trump has so far escaped indictment. The mob boss was protected by his diabolical cult, including the DOJ leadership, GOP congresspeople, echo-media & Trumpeter base. But once the prez is out of power & no longer wields the sword, he could still face criminal prosecution for a whole array of offenses. As Americans, we just need to make sure we vote this criminal-in-chief out of office. The headlines have continued to heat up these past few days as seen in all 3 parts below (especially in Part 3 we see how a clueless president presiding over a crisis equals disaster):
Part 2
Autocratic Leader & His Echo…It is alarming beyond measure what we see happening to America (& not just the pandemic). Leaving Trump up to his own devices, America may no longer become America anymore, as our democracy & Constitution could be tarnished so badly as to cease to exist. The ominous signs have been presented for years in every one of our Part 2’s, in the hopes that as Americans we pay attention to what’s really going on. Adding to the overabundance of evidence, Trump’s Twitter rants over the weekend further prove he’s out to lunch in managing this virus crisis, instead being consumed by what he falsely describes as the fake news media & deep state, unleashing vitriol upon them for simply doing their jobs. Had he only paid attention to the real news & hardworking civil servants beginning in January when they first started warning him of the Coronavirus, decisive leadership could have greatly reduced the death counts & economic carnage we’re now facing.
I knew the Trump presidency would be a disaster the moment he got elected, but it’s turned out so much worse than any of us could have ever believed. In attacking democratic institutions, traditions & norms, he’s gone well beyond simply being a temperamental, lying, clueless, incompetent, gaslighting, self-absorbed buffoon. He’s also a legitimate authoritarian danger! The prez is surrounding himself with corrupt henchmen in his administration, Congress, the courts, the military, intelligence community & echo-media, conducting an all-out mission to usurp unabridged power by unleashing his attack dogs against any hint of political opposition, thereby attempting to establish what amounts to a tyrannical state while declaring himself king. These links to articles are not fake news, they are very real & all told reveal very dangerous & sobering truths about our prez. To most Americans, these individual occurrences sort of fly under the radar, but each should be considered a piece to a fascist puzzle. So all these links seen here & in all our Part 2’s, taken as a whole they scream out of a looming dictatorship in the making. That’s why such articles should not be taken lightly or ignored:

Fox Fake News & Other Dangerous Echo Nitwits
The Fox prime time shows in recent years have become unwatchable, a complete dereliction of normal human reasoning. These guys actually lie to us more than Trump does! Carlson/Hannity/Ingraham every weeknight offer up 3 straight hours of psycho insanity, deceiving & dumbing down their viewers. Regular viewing is tantamount to shooting toxins into one’s brain. Hosts, guests & viewers alike have become a very scary bunch, promoting deranged viewpoints & conspiracies which are highly counterproductive/destructive to a functioning democracy. If we can’t find a way to thoroughly discredit Fox & the rest of the echo media, they’ll continue to bamboozle the conservative base with rhetoric completely opposed to the facts, to where the rest of us can’t reason or negotiate with them when they’ve become so lost in a fog & far removed from reality.
All of the links like as seen below & in any of our blog posts are way more accurate than Fox fake news. It’s really quite simple. If you want the truth, read these articles. If you’d prefer being lied to, watch Fox. In their coverage this year, between the inconceivably mixed & irresponsible messaging regularly coming from the White House & the echo, touting dismissive & reckless behavior which their fans incomprehensibly bought in, that is probably the primary reason this virus has gotten away from us far worse than any other country. So read & remember those with blood on their hands, since it’s not too much of a stretch to think it’s essentially a case of negligent homicide:
The Evil Tea Party Reemergence
I pull no punches since we’re facing very sinister domestic forces at play looking to do tremendous damage. These wacko protesters are putting our lives at risk, while also threatening to ignite a civil war & fascist state. A couple articles in this group below even call them a potential terrorist threat. Americans should take this threat seriously, understanding that white supremacist terrorists have overall killed a lot more Americans than Islamic radicals. Plus make no mistake, the protests across the nation will wind up killing people, as the virus spread is sure to spike as those crowds keep congregating. It’s a crying shame at a time we’ve been losing around 2000 Americans per day as May death rates have even started off exceeding April’s, & new projections say it could hit 3000 daily by June, yet these extremist nudniks can’t even do their simple patriotic duty by staying in isolation awhile longer until we’ve successfully bent the curve.
Ironically, the protesters’ rush to reopen the economy may result in greatly delaying our economic recovery, as in their haste the ravages of the virus could flare up with even more fury: https://www.yahoo.com/finance/
The scientific data needs to guide our actions, not some twisted self-centered ideology actually helped being fueled by the echo & corporate greed. And we’re largely seeing a movement of many white supremacists looking to throw lighter fluid on the fire of Coronavirus. Don’t look now, but who is among the biggest cheerleaders for these protesters? Channeling his memorable Charlottesville comments, Trump said these gun-toting loonies are very good people. He’s encouraging the very behavior that’s sparking civil disobedience & allowing the virus to further spread, putting many more American lives at risk. The CDC revised projections have just raised the estimated death counts based on so many states now reopening: https://www.motherjones.com/
So in essence, our prez has pronounced Americans must die so he can use talking points bragging about his economy to win reelection. That’s the only calculus that drives him. And apparently his so far badly-managed handling of this pandemic that led to the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans isn’t enough for him. He’s now inciting reckless actions to further spread the virus which aims to escalate the number of Americans dying into the hundreds of thousands (& for all we know it could hit the millions): https://www.vanityfair.com/

Part 3
Devastated Economy…No doubt we’re facing the worst health crisis & economic crash of our lifetime. Getting the economy going in the near-term depends on dramatically increasing widespread testing & tracing, while in the months ahead a healthy economy will be dependent on effective treatments & a vaccine. Even with some of the more reckless red states opening up now, the economy can’t truly bounce back until people are given a high degree of confidence the virus is under control: https://time.com/5829387/
That radicalized tribe feels energized & empowered by their cult leader. And Trump’s main goal as president is to please his base, no matter how destructive his leadership is to our country. Even more damage is being unleashed by Trump’s continuing assault on the American worker, as now he wants to force them back to work & put them in harm’s way: https://www.alternet.org/2020/
As we battle through this national emergency in the hopes many sectors & small businesses can ultimately survive, along with workers getting their livelihoods back in a way they’re able to make ends meet, in addition to our immediate concerns we should also strive to make a better tomorrow: https://www.washingtonpost.
Lousy Leadership with Deadly Consequences
Nope, a bumbling leader & emergency crisis don’t mix well. So Trump is still seeking a scapegoat as cover. Once again Trump is dismissing reports from his own intelligence community by insisting he has evidence the virus was developed in a Chinese lab. Isn’t it strange the way our prez constantly gushed over the Chinese president’s handling of the crisis until recently, now he’s saying the whole thing was China’s fault: https://www.washingtonpost.
Operation warp speed (https://www.usnews.com/news/
We still could & should ramp up the amount of supplies & labs to do millions of tests per day, but what is lacking is the funding & presidential leadership. They’re even struggling getting the testing together for just 100 senators as they head back to work: https://www.motherjones.com/
As for other pertinent details, the White House’s own guidelines that states should have 14 straight days of declining infection rates before reopening, none of the states have met those standards & yet Trump is encouraging the governors to open up anyway. Plus Trump & his party seem to be deliberately strangling cash-strapped states by leaving them out of the federal stimulus packages, perhaps as a dirty trick to force them into reopening their states before it’s safe, since they’re putting governors under enormous pressure to acquiesce in order for them to get badly-needed revenue coming into their state’s coffers: https://www.washingtonpost.
Everything Trump has done during this pandemic has been a knee-jerk reaction to benefit himself & his reelection chances, not for the health of the American people. His tone-deaf pronouncements are all over the place with contradictory claims & strategies (https://www.huffpost.com/
So as things stand, Trump says everything is going great in his irresponsible rush to reopen the economy prematurely: https://www.vanityfair.com/
My brother pointed out our factory of sadness, home for two decades of the worst team in the NFL, that Cleveland Browns stadium could no longer hold the number of Coronavirus deaths recorded in America: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
The lessons from around the world indicate social distancing/isolation works, while relaxing those guidelines results in more suffering. Other countries who’ve managed to better mitigate the ravages of the virus, their leaders in taking the threat more seriously took decisive action. But not Trump. Even now (much like my Cleveland Browns) he continues to fumble the ball: https://www.usatoday.com/
As Americans we need to pay close attention to what’s now happening to us, since we are keenly experiencing the devastating effects of a leadership void during a major crisis. These many links can bring us up-to-date on most of the relevant details surrounding this Coronavirus pandemic. Even just taking the time to peruse the titles can be informative on this monumental story affecting all of us. A huge story like this keeps producing a huge number of links, & Americans who will vote need to know about these important reports, so please do share:

Six Months to Election
When you’re the incumbent president up for reelection, presiding over a recession/depression & health emergency killing thousands of Americans from which your own dismissive inaction is largely to blame, that does make your situation look rather bleak. Despite having his supportive echo & cult base, the truth will find him out, as most Americans have come to realize this clown-show circus master doesn’t possess a leadership bone in his body. He’s all show & no substance, as we can only hope someday America might recover from his toxic governance. At least that daily irritant looks like it’s been put on hold as Trump may have given up on his rambling late-afternoon pressers, since it was revealing his nonsensical BS for all to see & hurting him in the polls.
As for the sexual assault allegation which is dominating the Biden coverage, it is quite disturbing, but it’s interesting of the 5 friends who this lady says can corroborate her accounts, 3 of them say they have no recollections. There’s a part of me that would wish we could start the campaigns over with a clean slate, having choices other than Uncle Joe & Trump: https://www.msn.com/en-us/
As I’ve often said, personally I would vote for Donald Duck over Donald Trump. Truly, it’s now mourning in America: https://www.dailykos.com/

Has It Really Been 50 Years?
I graduated from Kent State towards the end of that decade, but this horrible event was a defining moment of that generation. It seems like just yesterday. At that time being an oblivious middle school student, I missed the full magnitude of the tragedy. Some point to that particular tragic incident as the beginning point of our cultural divide/polarization which continues & has escalated a half-century later. These articles put those events into perspective along with the song commemorating what occurred:
