In the 1950's Senator McCarthy was holding hearings to investigate possible members of the communist party in various American businesses and even in government positions. Robert F. Kennedy was for a time a member of McCarthy's staff.

What were the consequences of mccarthyism for the accusers?

The only accuser affected was Joseph McCarthy himself. There was a commission set up called the "Watkins Committee" headed by former judge, Senator Arthur Watkins. In September, the committee recommended censuring Senator McCarthy and on November 8, 1954, that is what Congress did. Although he still was a member of the Senate, he no longer had any powers and he was ignored by the Senate. He started drinking and died of acute hepatitis on May 2, 1957. Sitting on the McCarthy panel were notables like Richard Nixon and Robert Kennedy.
