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.
The opinions of historians range from vindication to damaging when it comes to McCarthyism. While it is true that the Communist Party USA received a substantial amount of funding from the Soviet Union, the majority of historians do not think it justified the extent that McCarthyism went to with some even going so far as to say that McCarthyism was more damaging to the country than the Communist Party USA. On the other hand, there are also critics say that this knowledge justified McCarthyism.
