How strange..the Democrats have been in bed with the Sovs since the 30s
Just for the record, Senator McCarthy was correct. There were card-carrying Communist Party members scattered around in high places of the government. FDR was a bosom buddy of Stalin, and was at least informally a Communist. And some of those whom McCarthy accused were active Soviet spies.
Did he go over the line? Not really, if you examine the actual facts.
WW2 started as a war against Hitler and Hirohito, but it ended up by handing numerous countries over to Stalin.
For a pretty good account of the basic problems caused by Communist lovers in that war, read Evelyn Waugh’s “Sword of Honour” trilogy. Most of the troops in that war were brave and honest. My Uncle was killed in the Battle of Hurtgen Forest. But many of the political leaders were something else.
When Reagan felled the Soviet Union the KGB files were thrown open. It was then proven by their records that McCarthy was absolutely correct.
