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.

McCarthyism is the use of 'the big lie' and/or half-truths to gain publicity and deflect public attention and interest from the real issue. Although McCarthy was eventually discredited as a senator, his modus operandi was resurrected by Glen Beck, Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin, Donald Trump and others in their campaign to discredit and slow every one of President Barack Obama's economic, health, domestic, and foreign policy, proposals

McCarthyism was a campaign against so called communists in the US government and other institutions carried out under Senator Joseph McCarthy in the period 1950-54.
Many of the accused were blacklisted or lost their jobs, although most did not in fact belong to the Communist Party. It was similar to what we now call witch hunts.
McCarthy was carried away as well because of all the attention he got through TV and radio. His claims that there were large numbers of Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers inside the United States federal government and elsewhere.
He was unable to substantiate his claims and that led him to be censured by the United States Senate.
He also used various charges of communism, communist sympathies, disloyalty, or homosexuality to attack a number of politicians and other individuals.
He died at the age of 48 of hepatitis perhaps caused by excessive drinking.

McCarthyism was a modern day witch hunt with anyone who had ever even talked to a communist being immediately guilty.

67 US Senators censured McCarthy.

Communist Americans and others who disagree with the majority, continue to live in the US. McCarthy's attempt to drive out people who didn't agree with him failed miserably.

Basically, he went far enough to discredit himself. Joseph McCarthy was a perfect example of the type of person who pulls out enough rope that they eventually hang themselves with it. His accusations became increasingly more ridiculous until finally, he accused the United States Army of being a "Communist front", and his goose was cooked from that time on.

Early in 1954, the U.S. Army accused Senator Joseph R. McCarthy (Republican, Wisconsin), and his chief counsel, Roy Cohn, of pressuring the Army to give preferential treatment to former McCarthy aide and friend of Cohn's, G. David Schine. McCarthy claimed that the accusation was made in bad faith, in retaliation for his questioning of Brigadier General Ralph W. Zwicker the previous year. A special committee, under the chairmanship of Senator Karl Mundt, was appointed to adjudicate these conflicting charges, and the hearings opened on April 22, 1954. The hearings were televised, and many believe that they contributed significantly to McCarthy's subsequent decline in popularity. A month before the hearings began, TIME featured a cover story March 22, 1954 , with Cohn & Schine pictured and subtitled, "The Army got its orders." Ten years after the hearings, in 1964, the documentary film Point of Order! was released, which consists of 93 minutes of footage selected from the 187 hours of kinescope that covered the hearings.

Congress's response was to censure him after his long tirade of baseless Communist accusations in the Army, Government, and what not. His accusations began in 1950 and after three long years of hunting Communists without facts the Army, with the Presidents blessing, put McCarthy on trial for trying to get a former aide of his better treatment in the Army. This trial/ hearing were televised for the 36 days it went on and 20 million people watched. The people who watched realized McCarthy was just a bully and his popularity began to plummet. With his popularity gone Congress finally felt confident enough to try and censure him in 1954. The censure hearing held to see if he should be censured on 46 different accounts. After about two months the hearing ended and he was censured on only 2 accounts. This took away most of his power. No one listened to his speeches and television stayed away from him. After three years as a powerless senator he died of inflammation of the liver on May 2, 1957. He was 48.
