The House Committee on Un-American Activities started in the 1930s long before Joe McCarthy was involved. They investigated ties to Communism and NAZIsm.

The Crucible was written before Joe McCarthy was involved as well.

So just what were the overreach issues that the Left is still upset about when they claim “McCarthyism” since Joe McCarthy was quite late to that game when they were already upset about their Pinko dupes for Stalin being questioned.

It is quite clear today that Red Communists infiltrated academia, the media, and Obama administration.

Plenty of naked Communists served in Obama’s regime.

Don’t know— but it sure was a great thing that J. Edgar Hoover kept all of the Venona intercepts away from anyone else in the government. The PROOF that Alger Hiss was a spy-— the little creep-— the button down liberal elitist communist rings of “intelligentsia” that still run our mainstream media, and have always... “worked with the Russians” even after the collapse of the soviet government. They know the oligarchy is just a better paying version of Stalinism

Chuck Todd is a partisan hack that “has no sense of decency”. He has very little sense as it is.

Difference was McCarthy was right, and making a few mistakes didn’t make him wrong about his overall views about what was going on.

The country is full of socialists today, and they stopped teaching us history in schools so that kids today don’t even know what a socialist is.

And he’s too much of a coward to go on Tucker’s show and debate him.

The guy needs a good knuckle sandwich.

“It is quite clear today that Red Communists infiltrated academia, the media, and Obama administration.”

The Frankfurt School was crucial in this since the 1940’s when they came here from Germany. All FReepers should be aware of it. A couple videos about them:

That's an excellent book! I've read it through twice, though it makes my blood boil. I knew the commie infestation of the government was bad.......I never knew it was that bad. I think Stanton certainly lays the ground work and the book explains 'why' we are where we are now.

McCarthy tried to warn us, and the democrats communists destroyed him for it.

F. chUCK Todd is correct that this campaign is different than McCarthy. Odd Todd is just "correct" for the wrong reasons........ McCarthy was right, and the Schiff show is an actual witch hunt.
