Can there be any question that we're in a mad — and loud — new age of McCarthyism? Thank you, Kevin! And don't forget the wildly over-the-top members of the so-called Freedom Caucus and their Republican associates, including that charmer, lyin' George Santos, Jewish-space-laser-and-white-balloon-carrying Marjorie Taylor Greene, and — once again running for president — the man who never lost, Donald Trump-em-all.
I'd like to say it couldn't get crazier. Still, despite watching Greene shout "Liar!" and other Republicans yell "Bullshit!" during President Biden's State of the Union Address, I suspect it could get much worse (and more dangerous) in Washington in the months to come. And believe me, that's leaving Hunter Biden's penis aside. When it comes to this era's McCarthyism, don't for a moment think that the debt ceiling is the only ceiling that could end up in the dust of history.
