In 1950 anti-communist hysteria began to emerge in the USA as encouraged by the actions of Senator Joe McCarthy who began accusing high-ranking US officials of being communists or at least them selling secrets to the Russians. Many government employees were found guilty about passing on secrets about the Atom Bomb but he eventually lost popularity and then soon power as his accusations grew wilder and cruder each day. All this simply served to increase tension between the two superpowers due to the hysteria created and the detest shown by this senator towards the communists.
