McCarthy Attacks on Supreme Court Stir Party Rivalry
Senator McCarthy and Senator Eastland harshly criticized the U S Supreme Court as political actors at a Senate internal security hearing. They argued justices legislate rather than interpret, targeting Chief Justice Earl Warren and questioning judicial experience. The remarks coincided with bills to restore states' sedition powers and overturn a recent court ruling. The majority of Americans and many peers rejected the attacks as harmful to the Court's dignity.
