John C. McAdams

John Charles McAdams (October 26, 1945 – April 15, 2021) was an American conservative and associate professor of political science at Marquette University. McAdams taught courses on American politics and public policy, voter behavior, and the John F. Kennedy assassination; he ran a website on the assassination and published a book on the subject, JFK Assassination Logic: How to Think about Claims of Conspiracy (2011). He described himself as "a debunker by temperament". McAdams was suspended by Marquette in 2014 for publicly criticizing and sharing the first and last names of a graduate student on his personal blog. McAdams filed suit for breach of contract and in 2018 the Wisconsin Supreme Court ordered the university to reinstate him.
