The "Witch Hunts" were methods employed by Conservative Republican Senator Joseph McCarthy during the cold war. He basically said he had a list of Communist sympathizers that were able to infiltrate the government, these claims were however, unfounded, which eventually lead to his censure and political decline as fellow Conservatives and Republicans saw him as a liability.
The term McCarthyism means to accuse someone of disloyalty, treason, and/or subversion without evidence. People who questioned McCarthyists were branded as communists, traitors, etc.
