Instead of calling Columbus Day whatever the frick they’re changing it to, if they want to rename it so bad call it Joseph McCarthy Day.

That man was ahead of his time. A visionary really. What he did to root out communism set this country on the right track.

Too bad it’s gone left and now commies are the #1 leading cause of this nation’s deterioration!

On behalf of the American public I apologize posthumously to one Joseph McCarthy for his patriotic actions to fight communism.

Remember McCarthy was just one horrible man. But Today the entire left is a McCarthy like cult. From Hollywood to the print media to the digital media. From the universities to the public schools to the corporations. The Illiberal liberal Marxist's have killed or will kill free speech if it threatens their ideology. What ever happened to the liberals who would defend my right to speak despite not agreeing. Today the woke hate America cult has become a disease , and is destroying our country .Calling everyone Fascist or Nazi eg Biden. Wake up and identify the enemy, because it's truly the left.

He got in trouble for going after a general. Today he'd hit gold with all the fricking commie leaders in the DOD. There wouldn't be enough jail cells in Leavenworth to house those leftist fricks.

Interesting, maybe a fun, Joe McCarthy story….

Long before he was a US Senator and before he was “tail gunner Joe” he was the judge in the county where myself, parents, and grandparents are from. My grandparents had a farm which is still in the family. When McCarthy was the DA he stopped in to have my grandpa sign some papers on a land purchase he had made but when he did this a storm was approaching and my grandpa refused to get down off of a barn roof he was fixing to talk to a guy in a suit. So Joe climbed up the latter with the stuff he needed to sign and then after they got off of the roof of the barn they were on Joe helped my grandpa and grandma get cows into the barn before that storm hit. The storm rolled in and Joe stayed put until it passed just chilling with my grandparents. This was in the late 30’s and early 40’s. Until the day both of them died in the early 90’s my grandparents were staunch supporters of McCarthy because of that one interaction they had with him when he climbed up on the barn roof.

I'd be fine with a renewed wave of neo-McCarthyism full of piss and vinegar. Something has to give.

I have long felt this way. We need a fair amount of McCarthy-ism back in the public discourse.

No, man. Fk no! What’s happening today *is* McCarthyism, just with a different set of “commandments.” Blacklisting, suppression of free speech. History repeats itself until we learn our lesson.

According to prongs it’s because of the House Committee on Un-American activities. Nevermind that he was a senator.
