What they did to this man is basically what they're trying to do to Trump. My grandfather would always say the man's right, but the country wasn't ready.
Here's what he said February 9th, 1950:
"Today we are engaged in a final, all-out battle between communistic atheism and Christianity. The modern champions of communism have selected this as the time, and ladies and gentlemen, the chips are down — they are truly down." Speech in Wheeling, West Virginia
I encourage everyone to read about this man, and the retribution he endured. He went after Hollywood and politics... And they ruined him for it.
Sound familiar?
Yep. Grandpa was right. I hope we are ready for the same message 72 years later. Nice reminder Donny.
My son recently remarked "mom, you've been saying this forever"...
My response was that we have been entering the end times for my entire life...and on a heavenly perspective...it has been but a flash. When I was young time seemed stretched out, and an understanding of the nature of time only comes after we've spent a period of our lives traveling through it.
Yep, he was vilified even though he was 100% correct. That's often the case in history.
Ready to do something about it?
He was a great man,exposed all the commies in govt
He sure did. He made a list of names of people serving in Congress who were listed as communist party members and they did nothing about it.
McCarthy was a complete victim of one of the greatest smear campaigns. Taking a stand for what he knew was right cost him everything.
Thanks for posting this. I was just thinking about how little I know about this the other day. What are they teaching us in school? 😉

Ike despised him. Joe had a bad reputation for having cheated at high stakes poker with his fellow Army officers. Supposedly he financed his initial post war political exploits with money from card games.
He was bluffing with his lists of names. The number kept going up with his increasing popularity.
Is truth comprised when delivered by a known liar?
Ike knew about Venona. Nothing was done. I don’t know why, but suspect presidents are quickly confronted with facts of who’s really in charge. $$$ talks. They’ve all been puppets since the “federal reserve” was instituted.
I’m cynical, but believe “communism” is just a means to an end for $$$.
Lou Dobbs called them “Gnomes of Zurich”.
He wasn't bluffing initially. I believe the original number was 80. I'll trust the man who was being disparaged from every angle no matter his flaws. And especially here, because he's been proven right. Future proves past, and where are we?
If he wasn't holding at least some of the cards he wouldn't have been so vilified.
Yes. I’ve done a lot of reading about the origins of communist infiltration. I’ve researched the thing from inception to culmination. I agree with Tailgunner Joe that every government agency was fully taken over. And they all knew. The Army had Venona and did worse than nothing. They promoted the perpetrators. Our WW2 alliance with Stalin, while FDRs commie corps had power sovietized our OSS, etc. etc. As bad or worse than alliance with Luciano’s friends. Whitaker Chambers was right when he said he was leaving the winning side. Our good fortune: They’re lemmings! We’re watching them rush headlong off a cliff. Just don’t get in their way.
I also agree with your slings and arrows assertions, (Dracula had bad PR for centuries, but now we know) I’ll take verified documented truth from any source. (I like the Gospel, at least I trust that) I also acknowledge that JFK’s family loved Joe, and he was Jacks best friend in the senate. JFK knew, after BoP undeniably, what he was dealing with.
“Winter Kills” is a good book. Fiction truer than reality?
God Bless you.
Thanks for the insight friend
