On this day in history, Jan. 2, 1920, thousands detained by DOJ in nationwide 'Palmer Raids'
Fox News
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer launched the greatest of his infamous raids on Jan. 2, 1920. They employed illegal tactics and marked height of the Red Scare.
The action was soon dubbed the Palmer Raids. "Even simple criticism of the government was enough to send you to jail." "There is no time to waste on hairsplitting over infringement of liberties." — The Washington Post, Jan. 4, 1920 The Palmer Raids were deemed "lawless and subversive of constitutional liberty for citizens and aliens alike." "All federal civil service employees [had to] be screened for ‘loyalty.’" Kerry J. Byrne is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
"The raids constituted a horrific, shameful episode in American history, one of the lowest moments for liberty since King George III quartered troops in private homes," writes the Foundation for Economic Education.
