Interesting article.

Warren Buffett’s Son Takes Massive Action To Secure the Border

Warren Buffett’s son may want to look out for #TheResistance. The reason? He thinks the southern border ought to be secured.

Howard G. Buffett is the eldest son of the so-called Oracle of Omaha. The 64-year-old billionaire lives close to the border on a ranch in Arizona, less than 300 yards from Mexico, according to Fox News.

That’s part of why he’s given up to $30 million so far to organizations like the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office.

“It’s probably no accident that Howard G. Buffett chose Cochise County as the setting for his border-enforcement efforts,” the report read. “The place shares 83 miles of international border with Mexico and has long been at the heart of the nation’s border-vigilantism and anti-immigrant movements.”

Apparently, securing the border involves “vigilantism” and “anti-immigrant movements.” Making this argument is actually much longer than you might expect, centering on Buffett’s relationship with a number of groups deemed to be “far-right.” (The writer calls the American Center for Law and Justice “far-right,” so take this all as you will.)

....

He’s also a member of the Cochise County Sheriff’s Assist Team, a volunteer group which “is said to provide security and intelligence.” He’s the main source of funding for the group, as well.

“To date, he has provided the organization with hundreds of thousands of dollars, largely for vehicles and equipment,” the Phoenix New Times reported with all due horror.

That’s interesting. I ran across an article somewhere regarding Warren Buffet’s father. IIRC, he was against fiat money and wanted a return to gold backed currency.

Certain actions and statements by Warren, made the author believe that it was possible that Buffet may be trying to help out behind the scenes.

I have no opinion on that.
