Warren Buffett’s son is using his inherited wealth to build a private armed border patrol in Arizona, and libs are suddenly freaking out
· Jul 5, 2024 · NottheBee.com

Back in January 2019, Phoenix New Times reported that Howard Buffett, the eldest son of Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett, is out to "kick some ass" with his father's fortune in the war against illegal immigration in Cochise County, Arizona:

Over the past several years, 64-year-old Howard Buffett — using wealth supplied by his father ­ — has been waging his own border war in Cochise County. This has included the arming of a private volunteer group, importing privately employed enforcement personnel, and funding the chemical defoliation of a substantial portion of the county's border with Mexico.

Buffett has also purchased the loyalty of — and influence over ­ — the Cochise County Sheriff's Office (CCSO). He has done this through a steady stream of gifts and grants totaling tens of millions of dollars, used to buy guns, vehicles, surveillance equipment, helicopters, and other toys.

For his part in this relationship, Buffett has gained legitimacy and support — under the color of law — ­for his border war.

For some reason (maybe the historic migrant crisis under Joe Biden's disastrous leadership?) people are suddenly freaking out.

With the help of a map, Kamala Harris will no doubt confirm that Arizona is one of several border states, and one that has been struggling with an ongoing illegal immigration crisis since Biden's decision to throw Trump's immigration policies into the shredder.

Between October 2023 and January 2024 alone, U.S. Border Patrol agents processed 754,000 migrants along the border (with an unknown further number making it through unnoticed). The most by far were in the Tucson sector, with over 250,000 encounters, representing a 182% increase since the same time the previous year, with the Arizona border the epicenter of the crisis.

And people are mad that Howard Buffett is the Bruce Wayne of illegal immigration?
