Stimulated by little more than idle talk and unsubstantiated gos-
sip, FBI surveillance of Chavez under the administrations of Lyndon
B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, and Jimmy Carter contin-
ued over ten years, occupying the attention of dozens of FBlagents in
California, a half-dozen other states, and even Mexico. When all
related materials are added in—including parallel and cooperative
investigations with other intelligence agencies—the FBI dossier on) “
Chavez runs to over 1,500 pages, with new documents being disi
closed regularly. Outlining J. Edgar Hoover’s campaign to uncover
communist infiltration and control the farmworker movement, the
file emerges as an extended brief reiterating one central, overriding,
and completely astonishing fact about Chavez. It is something that
can not be said of Martin Luther King or Robertand John . Kennedy
after the FBI scoured through their lives and rummaged through
their garbage. In fact, it is something which can not be said about
most people after they have been subjected to years of surveillance
by such a vaunted law enforcement agency as the FBI
What becomes abundantly clear in Chavez's FBI file is that after
Hoover’s men wrapped-up their spying, bound up their foot-thick dossier, cross-referenced and indexed their material, and analyzed
hundreds of reports, they came up empty. They found nothing on
Chévez, No communis* leanings stained his reputation. No ugly
incidents detracted frem his reputation. No misappropriation of
funds marred his union administration. No extramarital affairs
undermined his reputation as a family man. No subversive activities
castsuspicion on the movement he chhampioned. ... Chavez never
displayed even one iota of disloyalty.

So are the democrats turning on Chavez because of his anti-illegal alien stance?
DNA will tell the tale.
dunno what the game here is.....
they certainly had ample opportunity to demolish his reputation particularly when the last biography movie was released....”Cesar Chavez” 2014
If Chavez was around now the left would call him a hitler nazi ICE loving fascist:
“Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers (UFW) historically opposed illegal immigration, viewing undocumented workers as strikebreakers who undermined union labor, lowered wages, and hindered organizing efforts
During the 1960s and 1970s, Chavez even reported undocumented workers to federal immigration authorities and set up “wet lines” on the border to stop them
Key aspects of Chavez’s stance included:
Anti-Strikebreaker Focus: Chavez believed growers used undocumented workers to undermine union efforts and break strikes, famously leading to the “Illegals Campaign”.
“Wet Lines” Initiative: In the 1970s, Chavez authorized the creation of “wet lines”—teams of UFW members who acted as a private patrol to prevent migrants from crossing the Arizona-Mexico border, according to VOA - Voice of America English News and San Jose Inside.
Pressure on Federal Officials: He pressured federal authorities to stop the flow of undocumented workers from Mexico, according to abcnews.com and Reddit.”
When will the files on JEdger [and the Fey Wray] be released?
Sí
La Raza types use the word coconut to describe race traitors. Brown on the outside, white inside.
Whatever the reason they are now - 30 years later - having a freak out....
I’m enjoying the show.
I didn’t know that JEHoover was a gardner, nor that Miss
Ray swung the other way.
You bet.,.
Files on MLK due to be released next year kept sealed by a judge for 50 years
That is an interesting factoid on a thread about a man who condemned La Raza.
