The new layout includes busts of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy on either side of the fireplace as well as the Chavez bust.

Disgusting. It might be four years, eight, whatever, but I can’t wait for that abomination to be removed by the next Republican president.

did anyone tell Biden that Chavez chased illlegals out of the lettuce fields with a baseball bat? Well, before he became a raging communist anyway.

Oddly Cesar Chavez is to be admired. He fought for and unionized farm workers in California and Arizona. He really was for the little guy. Those workers lived and worked in almost feudal conditions.

But now the odd part, Chavez was stridently against illegal aliens and it had nothing to do with prejudice. He recognized that a large number of illegal aliens would drive down the price of wages for his National Farm Workers Association which later became The United Farm Workers.

As soon as Joe finds this out the portrait will be gone.

Can you put a living person on currency? I know the Post Office has a rule that only dead people are allowed to be on USPS postage stamps.

So he replaced a Democrat (Andrew Jackson) with a Republican (MLK Jr.). His Oval Office sounds like the set of “That ‘60s Show”.

Chavez was against illegal immigration. He argued it lowered the wages of farm workers here legally whom he represented.

> Agree, This punk replaced Andrew Jackson.

He replaced Andrew Jackson with Benjamin Franklin. I’m fine with that. Jackson had incredible physical bravery but he was scary as hell, and probably a bit of a psychopath.

Yes, Cesar Chavez was very much against illegal immigration, as was very likely MLK as well.
