Senator Joseph McCarthy sparked the Red Scare in the early 1950s by alleging that numerous communists had infiltrated the U.S. government and other institutions. His accusations, often made without substantial evidence, fueled widespread fear of communist subversion during the Cold War. McCarthy's campaigns were driven by a combination of political ambition, anti-communist sentiment, and the desire to rally support against perceived threats to American values. This period led to intense scrutiny, blacklisting, and the violation of civil liberties for many individuals accused of communist ties.

The first red scare is said to begin when the Bolsheviks took control of Russia, showing that the Communist movement had real power. Many other countries also had communist groups and people feared they would take over the labor unions, call massive strikes and eventually overthrow governments everywhere.
