Analysis: "What went by 'McCarthyism' was not just one man or one party, it was the bipartisan consensus of our rulers."
"The new McCarthy Era, like the old, has seen brazenly illegal jailings and deportations, false accusations with no evidence, & the destruction of professional careers — this time magnified many times over."
