The Senate ultimately censured Senator Joseph McCarthy in December 1954 for his conduct, particularly for his aggressive and often reckless accusations against individuals and institutions, which undermined the Senate's dignity. This censure was a formal reprimand that marked a significant decline in his influence and power. Following this action, McCarthy's career never fully recovered, leading to his eventual political decline.

Senator Joseph McCarthy (1908-1957) led hearings in the Senate on communist influences in the US. He later chaired the Senate Committee on Government Operations and its Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations in the US Senate beginning with his second term in 1953.McCarthy used his position to gain notoriety by hunting alleged Communists in the US government during the Cold War tensions with the Soviet Union. The fear of communist influences led many to support McCarthy. But when he tried in 1954 to challenge and coerce the leadership of the Army (whose former general Eisenhower was President), he was brought before his own committee and berated as cruel and vindictive. He was finally censured by the Senate in December, 1954.McCarthy died before the end of his second term, of alcoholism and hepatitis.
The senate censured him
trueThe Senate censured Joseph McCarthy because of his unfounded accusations against people in the State Department, military and private citizens. President Dwight Eisenhower was especially upset by McCarthy's claim of communists in the military.
McCarthy claimed that there were known communists in the State Department. He held investigations and hearings and which ruined many careers. Presidents Truman and Eisenhower so feared his influence with the public that they did nothing to stop him. When McCarthy attacked the US Army as a hotbed of communist activity, the Senate finally censored him and he died a broken politician.
Because McCarthy had a phat ole boner on television.
