In October 1947, a congressional committee, the House Un-American Activities Committee, held hearings to investigate communist i

nfiltration of the motion picture industry. The transcript records the questioning of Dalton Trumbo by the committee in 1947. Which two sentences show that Trumbo is being bullied by the committee members?
The Chairman: This is a new question, now.
Mr. Trumbo: I see.
Mr. Stripling: You must have some reason for asking this question—
Mr. McDowell: Yes, we do.
Mr. Trumbo: You do.
I understand that members of the press have been given an alleged Communist Part card belonging to me—is that true?
Mr. Stripling: That is not true.
The Chairman: You are not asking the question—
Mr. Trumbo: I was.
The Chairman: The chief investigator is asking the questions.
Mr. Trumbo: I beg your pardon, sir.
The Chairman: Are you or have you ever been a member of the communist party?
Mr. Trumbo: I believe I have the right to be confronted with any evidence which supports this question. I should like to see what you have.
The Chairman: Oh. Well, you would!
Mr. Trumbo: Yes.
The Chairman: Well, you will, pretty soon.
(Laughter and applause.)
The Chairman (pounding gavel): The witness is excused. Impossible.
Mr. Trumbo: This is just the beginning—
The Chairman (pounding gavel): Just a minute—
Mr. Trumbo: Of an American concentration camp.
The Chairman: This is typical communist tactics. This is typical Communist tactics. [Pounding gavel.] Which sentence best describes a regressive tax?

In korematsu v. united states, the supreme court upheld which policy toward japanese americans
Sauron [17]

The Supreme Court upheld the policy of interning Japanese American citizens during World War II.

After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the US officially declared war on Japan. Shortly after this, the federal government was suspicious of Japanese American citizens and feared that many of them were spies for Japan. This is why president Franklin D. Roosevelt passed executive order 9066. This law resulted in the placing of Japanese American citizens into internment camps.

Korematsu was one of those citizens placed into an internment camp. He lated sued the federal government saying that this was a violation of his constitutional rights. However, the Supreme Court sided with the government as they felt that wartime actions can justify actions like the one taken by president Franklin D. Roosevelt.
