[An update on McCarthy-like bully tactics embraced by climate scientists.]
McCarthy made a habit of intimidating, abusing, smearing and threatening others who were opponents (full explanation of the demagoguery evil referred to as 'McCarthyism'). And various subsequent senators have filled his shoes admirably.
