A scholarly book by two college professors of history "The Venona Papers" made quite a splash since the people who McCarthy indicated were USSR Agents-in-place, really WERE what he said they were. VENONA was a top secret project which decrypted the coded messages sent to US spies by the KGB, spanning years from around 1935 to 1945. I recommend reading the books, there are two volumes and comparing what you read to research on what exactly McCarthy said (see the Congressional Record).

honestly I thought before reading you meant the McCarthy of our time and wanted to exclaim the previous one that you mentioned was indeed a hero and patriot.. after reading some of the tweets from the McCarthy from our time I'd have to say he's at least a patriot...

What movies, I'm not a big movie watcher. What do you mean in reverse?
