Cesar Chavez’s Wikipedia page now says that genetic testing confirms that he was the father of two of Dolores Huerta’s children, citing the NY Times article. But the article doesn’t quite say that. It says that they confirmed that Chavez had four children out of wedlock, and then immediately after, it says that Huerta claims that two of those children were hers. The wording creates the impression that genetic testing backs up her allegations, but it doesn’t actually say that. It seems intentionally confusing.

@AAGDhillon They all lie. It’s the norm, and the people who elected him have no issue with their representatives’ lack of integrity.

She literally said “I will follow the law” at least six times during the briefing. Why lie?

The goals of politicians in large cities are more voters and more revenue. Social services (i.e., welfare) and both legal and illegal immigration help create more voters. More people and social programs generate more revenue. It seems the last thing they care about is children and education.

@MichaelJester @moseskagan The number of homeless teenagers has increased due to mass immigration. Before teens were able to get entry level jobs easy, many had summer jobs.. today those teens have kids, but with tye ignorant notion that its still easy to get a job. so fights break out, kids run..

@Twolfrecovery @ethanagarwal @garrytan It's not an "anti-elite" message. It is an anti-capitalism message. Bernie, Ro, & their crew are against individual freedom. They find the profit motive to be offensive. That's fine. Let them start a commune somewhere and leave the rest of us alone!

Desperate much, @MattMahanSJ? Flying all the way to NYC to buddy up with RADICAL SOCIALIST NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani — a DSA Democrat who pushes government-run everything — just to copy his “working class walk” video? You brag about “different ideas,” but this pathetic stunt proves you’ve got ZERO original vision. Just another one-party Democrat tied to the far-left extremes that have DESTROYED California.
Mayor Matt Mahan@MattMahanSJ

.@ZohranKMamdani and I have something huge in common — we’re both entirely focused on making life better for working people. We have very different ideas on how to do that, but I think that’s the sign of a healthy democracy: the ability to disagree civilly, debate thoughtfully, and grapple with the fact that what we’ve been doing isn’t working — even, and perhaps most importantly, when you come from the same political party. I love New York, but I’m happy to be on a flight home right now — because California, we have a whole lot of work to do.

Her name was Leonie, she was a 13-year-old Austrian girl. While she was out with friends, 3 Afghan immigrants secretly put 11 ecstasy pills in her drink. Stunned and unable to defend herself, she was taken to the house of one of the three. The ecstasy dose was way too high, the girl started overdosing but the 3 immigrants, completely indifferent to her suffering, began to undress her and took turns raping her, putting their hands around her neck, strangling her. All of it recorded by themselves on a mobile phone video. That’s how Leonie died, naked, in atrocious suffering, while the beasts raped her. The autopsy would later confirm the cause of death was triple overdose and asphyxiation. When they were done, they wrapped the body in a carpet and dumped it roadside, under a tree. The girl’s body was found the next morning by some passers-by, wearing only her underwear and with clear strangulation marks on her neck. One of the perpetrators fled to the United Kingdom, but was quickly tracked down in a hotel and extradited, the 3 Afghans were sentenced: - Zubaidullah R. life imprisonment; - Ali H. 19 years in prison; - Ibraulhaq A. 20 years in prison. During the closing arguments, the Public Prosecutor told the court she was “stunned” by what the defendants said throughout the proceedings, stating that “there is not a trace of remorse”.

@WillSwaim As I remember it, he was for farm workers' wages and working conditions. He was against illegal aliens diluting wages and taking jobs. He was very controversial at the time. It would be surprising if the FBI did not investigate him.

My own sense is that something weird is happening here: no evidence, no victims … just “shocking allegations.” Did some pink-haired fascist inside UFW just wake up to discover that Cesar hated illegal immigrants? Is this a shakedown by people hoping to leverage AB 218 (the suspension of statute of limitations of sex-assault claims)? Is this a case of Gen Z types running UFW? The possible hypotheses seem infinite. Something doesn’t add up.
Los Angeles Times@latimes

The United Farmer Workers union said it will halt celebrations of its founder Cesar Chavez amid what the union described as “troubling allegations” against the iconic Chicano figure. latimes.com/california/sto…

@grok @JakeCan72 Remarkable. What if the FBI missed this for decades and now the NYTs journalists were able to figure this out.

Yes, Cesar Chavez was investigated extensively by the FBI from 1966-1975+, with 1,500+ pages of public files focused on his UFW labor activism, suspected communist links, and potential subversion under Hoover. No evidence those probes touched on personal sexual misconduct—the rape/abuse claims (including Huerta's, kept secret 60 years) first surfaced publicly in the NYT investigation yesterday, March 18, 2026. They never came up.

Obama declared Cesar Chavez a National Monument in 2012 — then awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Dolores Huerta, his co-founder who now says Chavez raped her twice in the 1960s. Both rapes resulted in pregnancies. Huerta kept them secret for 60 years. The children were raised by other families. Today the New York Times published a multi-year investigation. Huerta was not the only one to come forward. Two additional women say Chavez began targeting them at ages 12 and 13. One reported dozens of encounters over four years. The other says he drove her to a secluded grape field in Delano, California and raped her at 15. The collapse is already happening. The UFW has canceled its participation in Cesar Chavez Day events nationwide. Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs announced the state will not recognize the day this year. California Gov. Gavin Newsom is discussing with legislators whether changes to Cesar Chavez Day are warranted — including a potential shift to Farmworker Day. Sacramento is moving to rename Cesar Chavez Plaza. San Francisco supervisors report being flooded with calls to rename Cesar Chavez Street — one official is pushing for Dolores Huerta Street. In Fresno, a councilman plans to strip his name from a 10-mile boulevard renamed in his honor just two years ago: “We will not reward people who harmed us.” His own family released a statement acknowledging “impropriety with women and minors.” They said they were “shocked and saddened.” Huerta is 96. She stayed silent for six decades because she believed the truth would damage the farmworker movement she helped build. The federal monument remains in place. The Medal of Freedom was handed to the woman he raped. More than 70 schools and 35+ cities still bear his name.

Cesar Chavez had such legendary standing in the Democratic Party that President Biden put a bust of him in the Oval Office. Now, a NYT "bombshell investigation" alleges that Chavez "sexually abused young girls." nytimes.com/2026/03/18/us/…

New: Gov. Newsom signals he’s open to renaming Cesar Chavez day in California to something else that reflects the farm worker movement. He says he hasn’t spoken to CALeg leaders directly yet but there are staff level convos happening and everyone is processing.

@joelpollak The current union disagrees on many things related to Cesar Chavez. That includes the fact that the union he started opposed illegal aliens taking farm workers' jobs and lowering wages.

"The Founding Fathers were illegal immigrants" Yes… English settlers going to wooded colonies is just like allowing millions of unvetted migrants into a fully developed superpower with modern-day welfare programs.

Raskin: "Thomas Paine was an undocumented immigrant." Jordan: "How was he an illegal immigrant? He was born in the UK and came to America, then a British colony." Raskin: "I didn't say he was an illegal immigrant. He was an undocumented immigrant."

EXPOSE HER CORRUPTION! Far-left Senator Elizabeth Warren is praising activist Judge Brian Murphy’s ruling that reinstates over 50 unnecessary childhood vaccines onto the recommended schedule. The judicial overreach blocks RFK Jr.’s push for reforms to protect families. Now let's talk about her conflict of interest. She's the same senator who has accepted nearly $1 million in campaign contributions from the pharmaceutical industry and vaccine manufacturers. @SenWarren - it's long past time for you to resign in disgrace. REPOST if you agree! #thinblueline #lawenforcement
