The Red Scare, particularly the second one that occurred after World War II, was largely driven by U.S. government officials, most notably Senator Joseph McCarthy. McCarthy led a campaign against alleged communists in the government and other sectors, promoting fears of communist infiltration. The House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) also played a significant role in investigating and prosecuting suspected communists. This period was characterized by widespread paranoia and the suppression of dissenting political views.
