  • Joseph Raymond "Joe" McCarthy was a US Senator and Bill Murray lookalike from Wisconsin from 1947, until his death in 1957. He ruined the lives of countless numbers of Americans in his paranoid witch-hunt against alleged Communists with little regard to the evidence as to whether these people really were communist. McCarthy severely damaged the American political system until he was brought down. However there were so few Communists most of his targets were liberals and democratic Socialists McCarthy just wanted to ruin progressives such as democratic Socialists and liberals. The official cause of his death was acute hepatitis; it is widely accepted that this was brought on by alcoholism.
  • Joseph Raymond McCarthy (November 14, 1908 – May 2, 1957) served as a Republican U.S. Senator from the state of Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957. Beginning in 1950, McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread Communist subversion within the U.S. He was noted for making claims that there were large numbers of Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers inside the United States federal government and elsewhere, but providing little in the way of evidence to support these claims. Nonetheless, his tactics, which were used by other U.S. politicians, caused the ruin of several people. With the highly publicized Army-McCarthy hearings of 1954, and following the death of Senator Lester Hunt of Wyoming by suicide that same year, McCarthy's support and popularity faded. On December 2, 1954, the Senate voted to censure Senator McCarthy by a vote of 67 to 22, making him one of the few senators ever to be disciplined in this fashion. McCarthy died in Bethesda Naval Hospital on May 2, 1957, at the age of 48. The official cause of death was acute hepatitis; it is widely accepted that this was caused, or at least exacerbated, by alcoholism. The term "McCarthyism", coined in 1950 in reference to McCarthy's practices, was soon applied to similar anti-communist activities. Today the term is used more generally in reference to demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character or patriotism of political opponents.
  • Iosephus McCarthy (natus die 14 Novembris 1908 in Grand Chute Visconsiniae; mortuus die 2 Maii 1957 in Bethesda Terrae Mariae) fuit senator Americanus, propter sententiam suam contra communismum cognitus, qui anno 1950 oratione praeclara sua habita, coniuratione sceleratissima ac infestissima Unionis Sovieticae et item omnium communisticorum ad perniciem rei publicae Americanorum praetenta, quaesitione permolesta principibus rei publicae, militibus, denique omnibus civibus Americanis eius consilio instituta, repente et famam et ignominiam accipiens, princeps factionis ascendentis contra communismum factus est. Causa verum eius numquam re ac indiciis probata, neque ceteris senatoris principibusque militaribus constiturus quaesitione suo ad communisticos e re publica vellendos bonorum omnium vitam ruente videbatur, taedebat autem eos magnitudinis cognitionum. Anno 1954 cum alius senator maximae exismationis, Lester C. Hunt, filio suo ab agente rei publicae criminis indicato commerci cum mari sexu (nam tunc id scelus populus habebat), manu sua sese interfecisset, notam statim censoriam senatus consulto, quia nuper consuetudine sua orationem asperrimam in eum habuit patrem ob filii factum vituperans, in se accipere compulsus est. Postea McCarthy cum in eius ordine manere posset, tamen nec tantam potentiam quantam accusatione primum facta tenuit, nec gratia populi adeo fretus orationes concertatorias in inimicos habuit, et anno tertio modo duodequinquaginta annos natus morbo iecoris poculis ad tristitiam frangendam potatis accepto casus est.

  • Joseph Raymond McCarthy (1908-1957) was a Wisconsin senator who became infamous for his aggressive investigation and claims of Communist infiltration in the United States of America. In one 1950 lecture at a Republican Women's Club meeting, McCarthy claimed that "I have here in my hand a list..." of known Communists working in the State Department. Over the following days and weeks, McCarthy's claims of the number of Communists on "the list" changed, and it seems likely that an actual list never existed. Over the next few years, McCarthy's scare tactics increased his power in the Senate considerably. He was made Chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, and used this pulpit to make wide-ranging claims of Communist infiltration. His investigations of books written by Communists in overseas libraries led many American libraries to purge their collections; his investigations into Communist subversion of Hollywood led to the blacklisting of many writers and performers. McCarthy overreached his power in 1953 by zealously investigating the Armed Forces, publicly intimidating a popular general. This led to the televised Army-McCarthy hearings in 1954 and a broadcast by Edward R. Murrow attacking his methods. McCarthy's power was broken, and he was censured by the Senate. Decades after his death, McCarthy remains a significant but controversial figure in American politics.

The term McCarthyism, coined in 1950 in reference to McCarthy's practices, was soon applied to similar anti-communist activities. Today the term is used more generally in reference to demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character or patriotism of political opponents. Born and raised on a Wisconsin farm, McCarthy earned a law degree at Marquette University in 1935 and was elected as a circuit judge in 1939, the youngest in state history. At age 33, McCarthy volunteered for the United States Marine Corps and served during World War II. He successfully ran for the United States Senate in 1946, defeating Robert M. La Follette, Jr. After three largely undistinguished years in the Senate, McCarthy rose suddenly to national fame in February 1950 when he asserted in a speech that he had a list of "members of the Communist Party and members of a spy ring" who were employed in the State Department. McCarthy was never able to prove his sensational charge. In succeeding years after his 1950 speech, McCarthy made additional accusations of Communist infiltration into the State Department, the administration of President Harry S. Truman, the Voice of America, and the United States Army. He also used various charges of communism, communist sympathies, disloyalty, or homosexuality to attack a number of politicians and other individuals inside and outside of government. Not as widely known as McCarthy's anti-Communist crusade were his various attempts to intimidate, and expel from government positions, persons whom he accused, or threatened to publicly accuse, of homosexuality. Former U.S. Senator Alan K. Simpson has written: "The so-called 'Red Scare' has been the main focus of most historians of that period of time. A lesser-known element…and one that harmed far more people was the witch-hunt McCarthy and others conducted against homosexuals." This anti-homosexual witch-hunt McCarthy and others waged alongside their "Red Scare" tactics has been referred to by some as the "Lavender Scare". With the highly publicized Army–McCarthy hearings of 1954, and following the death of Senator Lester Hunt of Wyoming by suicide that same year, McCarthy's support and popularity faded. And, on December 2, 1954, the Senate voted to censure Senator McCarthy by a vote of 67 to 22, making him one of the few senators ever to be disciplined in this fashion. McCarthy died in Bethesda Naval Hospital on May 2, 1957, at the age of 48.
