Billionaire Warren Buffett encouraged investors to maintain their faith in America’s economy and the businesses his Berkshire Hathaway conglomerate owns in a reassuring letter to his shareholders Saturday. Buffett hardly even addressed the coronavirus that ravaged many businesses last year, instead focusing on the long-term prospects for the railroad, utility and insurance businesses and stocks that belong to Berkshire Hathaway. But he said U.S. business will thrive over time in spite of the pandemic. “In its brief 232 years of existence, however, there has been no incubator for unleashing human potential like America. Despite some severe interruptions, our country’s economic...

They’re not silent anymore: an increasingly vocal chorus of critics on both sides of the political aisle slammed Gov. Cuomo Saturday as news spread that a second former aide has accused him of sexual harassment. Everyone from familiar GOP foes to his own second in command spoke up in favor of an independent investigation after Charlotte Bennett, 25, came forward to The New York Times to describe Cuomo’s allegedly creepy behavior. At least one state senator didn’t mince words. “@NYGovCuomo, you are a monster, and it is time for you to go. Now,” wrote state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi, a Democrat...

Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s love life has been rocky, and sometimes cringe-worthy, for years — since well before a second former aide accused him of sexual harassment on the job on Feb. 27. Briefly the hearthrob of some swooning liberals — who called themselves “Cuomosexuals” at the height of the governor’s daily COVID-19 briefings last year — Cuomo, 63, has made no secret that he’s on the prowl after a very public breakup in 2019. One of those Cuomosexuals was comedian Chelsea Handler.

The woman, 25, said that when they were alone in his office, Gov. Andrew Cuomo asked if she “had ever been with an older man.”

On the other hand, Francis himself says that shepherds must smell of sheep and that they need to follow the sensus fidelium, rather than impose a direction on them. It seems that now he leaves the field even more open for the controversy about the points that really matter: gender ideology, gayzism, religious syncretism and, above all, the money that is under it all.What they didn't expect was for the people to be as awake as they are. The cry of alert was given,...

A second woman has accused Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment, according to a new report. Charlotte Bennett, a 25-year-old former aide to Cuomo, told The New York Times that the governor asked her inappropriate personal questions, told her he was open to relationships with women in their 20s, and left her feeling that he “wanted to sleep with me.” Bennett, who worked as an executive assistant and health-policy adviser, told the Times the interactions took place in the spring, as the coronavirus pandemic flared. Cuomo, 63, never made any physical advances, she said.

Wherein Pompeo describes how the leftists at the NYT described him as the worst Secretary of State in history, and China imposed sanctions on HIM. I'm all for his candidacy, of any kind. V. President, or even the Presidency, if Trump gets somehow sidelined.

There’s no flitting around it, this is a rare bird. A cardinal that appears to be half-female and half-male was recently spotted in Pennsylvania. Jamie Hill, a birdwatcher for 48 years, documented the unusual sighting in a Facebook post on Sunday. “I had a once-in-a-lifetime, one in a million bird encounter!” he wrote. A friend of Hill’s had told him about an “unusual bird” seen at a bird feeder in Grand Valley in Warren County. The creature was bright red like a male cardinal on one side and brownish white like a female on the other.

How’s that foreign policy working out now with Joe Biden? President Donald Trump brought a greater peace to the Middle East. Biden has brought on a deteriorating situation that’s about to explode into greater war. Folks on the left are freaking out at him for bombing Iranian-backed militias in Syria, saying he only lasted about a month before he did such a military action and they’re not cutting him any slack. Now it looks like the Iranian backed terror group the Houthis have just fired off a ballistic missile at Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and several other Saudi cities are also...

Unlike President Trump, who gained a reputation for quickly boarding Marine One and traveling to the site of a natural disaster, “President” Joe Biden waited a full week before traveling to the state of Texas to assess the damage from a highly unusual icy winter storm. The storm left millions of citizens without electricity, heat, food, and water. ...... Snip...... But the highlight of Joe’s visit came when he spoke to dozens of Americans about how he was welcomed by “Representatives uh, “Shirley” [Sheila] Jackson Lee (D-TX), Al Green, Sylvia Garcia, Lizzie Pinnela, uh, excuse me, uh, Pinell, and uh,...

There have been a lot of questions about Joe Biden’s cognitive condition, him putting off doing any one on one presser with the media and him not doing the traditional address to the joint session of Congress that he himself said he would be doing this month.Then came the reports that some Democrats didn’t want him to have the sole control of the nuclear codes. On top of all that, people are now noticing the Kamala Harris is being asked to do things that would normally be the responsibility of Biden, such as talking on the phone with and meeting...

There have been many questions about ivermectin, and rightly so. Below we provide detailed and comprehensive answers to the most common questions we have received. First and foremost, many simply ask, “Can ivermectin really do all you’ve said it can do—prevent and treat all phases of COVID-19 disease? It seems too good to be true – again.”The answer to this question relies on the fact that ivermectin, since its development 40 years ago, has already demonstrated its ability to make historic impacts on global health, given it led to the eradication of a “pandemic” of parasitic diseases across multiple continents....
