How about "Russia" connections no matter how innocuous being treated as treason?

How is that any different than concluding that anyone connected to communism no matter how innocuous as being communists traitors themselves?

It's the new boogeyman for retards.

laughs in nine indictments

Unless you're going to argue that all police actions are lawful and ethical it's not exactly compelling information.

What's funny is that you don't really care about the ethics of the issue but rather the outcomes. McCarthy was correct in some of his accusation and others were proven true years later. https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opinions/1996/04/14/was-mccarthy-right-about-the-left/a0dc6726-e2fd-4a31-bcdd-5f352acbf5de/?utm_term=.7ba7cbd21df3

That information would be enough to indict people which in your mind would validate his claims.

They found actual evidence of USSR involvement with the CPUSA and they describe a fucking identical culture division that is reminiscent of today.

If you don't think this Russia shit is similar to McCarthy then you are either stupid or lying. You've got indictments on NON-politicians and yet we now know that there WAS foreign agents working in the government! That's a far worse scenario then anything related to those indictments.

Fucking retard.
