The Palmer Raids were prompted by a wave of labor unrest and a series of bombings in the United States in 1919, which were associated with the growing fear of communism and anarchism following the Russian Revolution. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, motivated by concerns over radical political movements and the perceived threat of a domestic revolution, initiated the raids to arrest and deport suspected radicals. The climate of fear and paranoia, fueled by the Red Scare, led to widespread violations of civil liberties during these operations. Ultimately, the raids targeted immigrants and leftist activists, reflecting a broader societal anxiety about political extremism.
