President Biden’s personal touches in the Oval Office include replacing a portrait of Andrew Jackson and adding a bust of labor icon Cesar Chavez behind the Resolute Desk, according to The Washington Post.

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.

Cesar Chavez wouldn’t be pleased with Biden’s position on illegal immigrants.

Just wait, till Biden’s Treasury Department(Headed by Yellen) moves President Jackson from the front of a $20 to the back.

Harriet Tubman would be the face of our $20 bill. This proposal was initiated during the Obama administration by former Treasury Secretary Jack Lew. They didn’t implement it when their “golden boy”(Obama) was President, so they left it for a future administration.

Cesar Chavez founded the UFW but was anti-immigrant, he said they were responsible for the low wages of agricultural workers

Your post is spot on.

About 15 years ago, I had to do a paper and presentation about him.

I researched it thoroughly, looking for the warts and the good stuff. He was the real deal. He wanted only a fair shake for field workers - something many of them were not getting.

You are also correct about him having no time for illegal aliens. He ratted them ‘em out to the Border Patrol on a number of occasions.

“Wasn’t Cesar Chavez against Illegal Immigration?”

Forget it, he’s rolling.

Weird. Andrew Jackson was a cruel slave owner, a true racist, a war-mongerer and an untrustworthy treaty-breaker...and also the founder of the Democratic Party. They haven’t changed much from their founder’s day.

He replaced Andrew Jackson with Benjamin Franklin.

Actually, that wasn't a bad idea at all. Ben Franklin's portrait should be in the Oval Office.

Biden shouldn't be there, but Franklin should.

I wonder if Xiden picked ol’ Ben just to rub it in our faces?

Exactly. Cesar was born in Yuma AZ. He had no accent unless it was needed. He is on video challenging ‘wetback’ illegal immigration when he campaigned for union recognition in Bakersfield, Barstow, El Centro etc. It is really simple: How can you get a minimum wage and decent working conditions when there is no border? Simple supply and demand equation when the supply is unlimited.
