Cesar Chavez Exposed as Child Abuser & R*pist
About this episode
Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss an FBI probe into Trump’s former counterterrorism director, children of high-ranking Iranian regime officials teaching your kids in college, and a shocking report on labor icon Cesar Chavez.
First, they react to the FBI investigation into whether former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent leaked classified information while on the job. They also consider Kent’s conflicting assessments about whether Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States.
Next, they react with disbelief to reports that children of senior Iranian regime figures are living in the United States and teaching at American colleges and universities. Jim has some pointed questions for U.S. immigration officials.
Finally, they examine the explosive New York Times report alleging that Cesar Chavez sexually abused multiple women, including minors, while he led the farm labor movement decades ago. Two women say they were just 12 and 13 years old when the abuse began, with one reporting rape at age 15. Jim and Greg discuss the significance of Chavez in Democratic politics and how these allegations will likely force a major reassessment of his legacy.
