Echoing McCarthy's paranoid witch hunts, probes now target Jack Smith for Hatch Act breaches amid Trump's revenge tour, paranoia devolving to a doddering would be autocrat. #McCarthyism

"There is freedom of speech but I cannot guarantee freedom after speech". ... Idi Amin, military dictator ruled Uganda 1971 - 1979. A policy Donald Trump, MAGA & Far-right Christian Nationalists are happy and eager to employ. #Trump #FreedomOfSpeech #FreeSpeech #America #UK #USA #GOP #McCarthyism

Trump has direct ties to McCarthyism through his childhood mentor, Roy Cohn. A new red scare is exactly what the MAGA-run GOP is going to cling to for this election cycle. We need to keep calling it out for what it is: #McCarthyism

Roy Cohn shaped Trump and Louis Katz (murderer), steering their questionable activities to Panama where both relied on Bear Stearns to evade justice and to profit. #Panama #McCarthyism #Offshore #PresidentEpstein

When a government starts defining ‘extremism’ as disagreement, you’re not fighting crime — you’re reviving #McCarthyism

We can stop hoping it won't be as bad as we fear. It already IS that bad, as this @cliffschecter.bsky.social video featuring @repstansbury.bsky.social proves. The Republican Party is preparing the new #McCarthyism, complete with purge. The enemy is in the House, the Senate and the WH. #WhyWeFight

#tdih 1953 Indiana textbook commissioner (Mrs. White) called to ban Robin Hood references in schools. Like today's GOP book bans, anti-history ed bills, EOs. A IU Bloomington religious student group bravely challenged #McCarthyism w/ Green Feather campaign. 🧵 www.zinnedproject.org/new….
