“McCarthy was right”

I agree. Too bad that brain tumor wrecked havoc with his mind and the hearings.
As an aside, I think I read somewhere that RFK Sr was legal counsel for the McCarthy hearings.

Absolutely. Everyone in this country ought to read lackluster By History—an extraordinarily well researched and well written book that will blow away everything we thought we knew.

"McCarthy was right: the government was and IS heavily infested with communists."
McCarthy's downfall came when he dared to say the military was infiltrated. Of course, the Verona files being deciphered were tipped off to the Soviets by a communist noncom looking over the shoulder of the man deciphering them.
