I love it when Republicans complain about “McCarthyism” blissfully unaware that McCarthy was a Republican.

It’s just as funny as when they compare every minor and made-up scandal to Watergate. In a few years when the Republican president is Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho we’ll hear Republicans accusing the liberals du jour of “Trumpism”

You're being ridiculous, of course.

But if you insist. Tell us who created the KKK.

As to the lawsuit story itself...the MSM fraudsters should check out 'MAGA Country' now if they want to see for real "Smirks"

This transcends politics. And is disgusting on every level.

Adults attacking children. I refused to accept it when it was over gun control, I refuse it now.

It is disgusting and goes directly against the very ethos of Western civilization.

I hope this young man retires early.

Agreed. I didn't like the attacks from the get go.

You mean like when Democrats whine about slavery or the KKK? Please, do go on.

McCarthy was also a close family friend to the Kennedy family.

Also, when the CIA declassified the VENONA decrypts that McCarthy was read-into the results validated every single one of McCarthy's accusations against the scumsucking leftists who were truly, truly colluding with Russia.

Russia.

Russia.

Senator Joseph McCarthy died on May 2, 1957. Modern day Russia was still the Soviet Union. Unless there is another McCarthy that I do not know about...

In any case, Beave's allegation that there is an implied hypocrisy in what he describes as 'Republicans complaining about McCarthyism' is, as always seems to be the case when Beave makes an allegation, WRONG.

The lawyer, Lin Wood - who also defended Democrat politician, Gary Condit - is claiming the following in the introduction to the Plaintiff Complaint he authored:

$1:

The Post is a major American daily newspaper published in Washington, D.C. which is credited with inventing the term "McCarthyism" in an editorial cartoon published in 1950. Depicting buckets of tar, the cartoon made fun of then United States Senator Joseph McCarthy's "tarring" tactics of engaging in smear campaigns and character assassination against citizens whose political views made them targets of his accusations.
In a span of three (3) days in January of this year commencing on January 19, the Post engaged in a modern-day form of McCarthyism by competing with CNN and NBC, among others, to claim leadership of a mainstream and social media mob of bullies which attacked, vilified, and threatened Nicholas Sandmann (“Nicholas”), an innocent secondary school child.

So the Democrat defending lawyer is claiming the term McCarthyism is an invention of the Washington Post and he mentions it only to point out the hypocrisy of the Washington Post when it unjustly targets someone for demonization based on political beliefs - which is what the term, McCarthyism, means by the definition of it they invented.
