🚀Quick Overview
Spies, bombs, and political mudslinging! Dive into the era of McCarthyism where suspicion was rampant and politics was a battlefield. And guess what? It's juicier than any teen drama out there. 🕵️‍♂️🎭

Soviet Spies in the USA 🔍

More Common Than You'd Think!

  • Post-Soviet Papers Reveal: Spies had wormed their way into ‘every major branch of the Roosevelt administration’ during WWII.
  • Think of it like this: Imagine if your school's secret recipe for that amazing chocolate chip cookie was leaked by insiders to rival schools. That's how BIG of a deal this was, but with nuclear weapons involved!
  • Major Scoop: These spies even passed info about the atom bomb construction! 💣
  • Plot Twist: A spy ring from Canada in 1945 exposed agents in the US, leading the Soviets to deactivate many of their agents.
  • Did You Know? The Second Red Scare, where everyone was suspicious of everyone, might have been too late because most spying had already ended. Talk about bad timing!
