According to American media outlets such as CNN, President Biden changed the portrait on the front desk when he took office. Above the fireplace where the portrait of George Washington’s first president was hung was a portrait of President Franklin Roosevelt, surrounded by the President of Washington. Roosevelt was president who overcame national crises such as the Great Recession and World War II. President Biden has frequently cited his opening environment compared to Roosevelt’s inauguration.

Also, the portrait of former President Andrew Jackson that former President Trump kept near his desk four years ago is completely missing. Former President Jackson enforced the ‘Abolition of India Act’ in 1830 and expelled tens of thousands of Native Americans. President Biden calls the portrait of Benjamin Franklin, a scientist and politician, the ‘Father of Founding’. Accordingly, the British Telegraph said, “This is an expression of Biden’s view of science as having an anti – racist substance.”
