TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): Tonight there are more allegations consistent in many ways with the allegations we have already heard.

Oh just kidding. That's a scene from The Crucible, which you will remember as the Arthur Miller play about the Salem witch trials.



Miller wrote The Crucible back in 1953, that was a time when liberals still cared about civil liberties and due process, and the right to face your accuser. Miller wrote it as an allegory about the McCarthy hearings.



The McCarthy hearings were a period the left deeply hated, until they took power and re-created it themselves. Nowadays, you wonder if progressives still read Miller's play, and if so, are they outraged by it? Maybe not.



It might seem completely reasonable to them. Mob accuses villager of witchcraft, villager denies it because witches always deny it, “Prove you're not a witch,” they scream. The witch can't, proving beyond a doubt that she is in fact a witch -- to the stake she goes.
