Letter: Stewart follows in the footsteps of McCarthy
(Leah Hogsten | Tribune file photo) Chris Stewart, representative for Utah's 2nd Congressional District, at the Utah Republican Nominating Convention April 21, 2018.
It appears the representative from Utah’s 2nd Congressional District is carrying on a proud Republican tradition.
Sen. Joseph McCarthy, 1950: “I have in my hand a list of 205 individuals who appear to be either card-carrying members or certainly loyal to the Communist Party.”
Rep. Chris Stewart, 2019: “I’m holding here in my hand a binder of 25 examples of leaks that occurred from the special counsel’s office.”
