@johnohsee @deadwronghist Again, where is the accusation of being a Communist in this article? McCarthy was accusing him of being soft on Communism as the SecDef, but that is a policy disagreement not an accusation or anything defamatory.

Roy Cohn spent decades as Donald Trump's mentor and McCarthy's enforcer, destroying careers by labeling men as communists and homosexuals. In 1986, CBS asked him whether he was one.

@johnohsee @deadwronghist He implied that his policies created an environment for Communist aggression in Europe and Asia. But he never called him one.

@johnohsee @deadwronghist If you want to be technical about it, McCarthy didn't falsely accuse anyone. I get he created an atmosphere and had a shotgun approach. As a Senator, everyone he interviewed was at least a sympathiser or security risk. It was a bigger problem than history books want to admit.

@inmateprof @deadwronghist I don’t doubt that there were spies assisting the Soviets, but McCarthy’s inability to get an accurate or consistent number totally undermined his actions. Not to mention the ones he got wrong.

@johnohsee @deadwronghist Read the declassified Venona Cables. He was right. OK, fine, he was a drunk, but he was right about Soviet sympathisers and Communists in our government and industries.

@henry2071 @deadwronghist Yes, read the declassification of the Venona Cables in the late 90's. Our government and industries were infested with Communists and Soviet sympathisers. OK, fine, McCarthy was an a-hole, but he was right.

Here is UNC’s updated starting lineup projection. Not a ton of physicality or thumpers to combat the smashmouth teams, but big handlers and shooting is clearly a priority for Michael Malone. PG: Neoklis Avdalas G: Terrence Brown G: Matt Able F: Jarin Stevenson C: Sayon Keita

@JonathanTurley Don't care. Most of them supported liberal politicians and orgs that advocate for this stuff. Screw them. They shouldn't be allowed to leave or move their assets.

California is witnessing a form of economic Darwinism where the slowest billionaires are about to be culled from the herd. The Service Employees International Union just announced that it has enough signatures to put the billionaire tax on the ballot... foxbusiness.com/politics/calif…

@Rothmus The California billionaires voted for leftists and support liberal orgs in hopes of getting the masses' support. They shouldn't be allowed to leave or move their assets. Screw them.

> $1 trillion gone with +40 ultra-wealthy Californians to leave the state >$28 billion worth of wages lost >$12 billion in annual personal income tax revenue losses by 2046 >$122 billion cumulative total loss over the next two decades This is the predictable result of ignoring a basic economic reality: new taxes and higher rates on productive people don’t automatically deliver higher revenue. Capital and talent are mobile. When you punish success, it relocates. Middle class, get ready to pay up. The bill for these experiments always lands on those who can’t easily leave.

@Jamie9761721050 @SchmittNYC Me either. They thought funding liberal organizations like BLM would keep the masses on their side. Reap what you sow. They shouldn't be allowed to leave or move their assets either. Screw them.

Roughly 220 billionaires reside in California. They employ roughly 10 million people. If a wealth tax passes, everyone with a billion-dollar idea will think twice about whether they want to build that business in California. But that isn’t even the most dangerous part. When this turns out to raise less money than expected, the bar will be lowered to $100 million. Then $50 million. Then $10 million. Then $1 million. They’ll call it “the millionaire tax.” And since ~80% of the California population isn’t a millionaire, they’ll vote it into existence because “it doesn’t affect them.” But many of those “millionaires” are providing jobs. Housing. Innovation. Buying products and services. They’re a net economic benefit. If you discourage them from living in California, they will leave. Then it becomes a downward spiral where they have to tax everyone else to stay afloat. Not saying the system is perfect. But a simpler solution might simply be: spend less money and encourage more people to move back / create a billion dollar idea.

BREAKING: California's one-time "billionaire wealth tax" all but officially confirmed to be on the ballot. 93% chance.

The California billionaire wealth confiscation tax has enough signatures to get on the ballot. People were wondering why billionaires bailed on the state before the idea even made the ballot. They didn't trust their state's voters and they were right.
