…many as 4 wives and innumerable concubines. An African Muslim male might have 50, 75, or even a 100 children. It’s common and encouraged.
Islamic leaders show up at his door and tell him they will feed and educate his children, but they must take them away.

ACE OF SPADES: Dick Cheney Dead at 84. “Although obituaries identify Cheney as a rock-ribbed Republican, of course he became a progressive Democrat in the last ten years of his life.”
Cheney suffered from heart disease for decades and fell out of favor among many Republicans in the Trump era, even famously casting a vote in the 2024 election for Democrat Kamala Harris after a long feud with America’s 47th president.

As I’ve never stopped regretting: We elected George W. Bush and Dick Cheney on the theory that the military exists for war-fighting and destroying the enemy, not to serve as armed Social Engineers and Progressive Reformers to advance primitive societies. We elected them to make sure that Bill Clinton’s folly in Haiti — which involved 25,000 “peace keepers” — would never be repeated. The US military would henceforth be deployed only to destroy an enemy and secure an advantage for the US, not to “nation build” failed or backwards states barely removed from the Dark Ages.
Instead, we wound up being signed up for a decade-plus of nation-building on a scale that Bill Clinton would have blanched at.
Bill Clinton played around with using the US armed forces as an evangelizing force for progressivism. Dick Cheney took Bill Clinton’s early experiments and made them into the central animating theory of US foreign policy.
Dick Cheney tested the limits of overwhelming American military might and to our great regret, he found those limits, at enormous loss of American life.
RIP to Dick Cheney and more importantly, RIP to neoconservatism, nation-building, and chasing our tails around the world in pursuit of absurd utopian goals like “bringing freedom to Islam” and bringing reform and democracy to those who “hate our values.”
Meanwhile, the London Times, a nominally conservative-adjacent newspaper, dubs Cheney an “arch-conservative” (are there ever any arch-liberals or arch-leftists?) and adds that “Cheney was revered by hardline Republicans, but loathed by more moderate Americans.”
The hieroglyphics of those more moderate Americans:

NIFTY: Guardsman learns to fly autonomous Black Hawk in less than an hour.
In a training first, the Guardsman, using a handheld touchscreen tablet, controlled the Optionally Piloted Vehicle Black Hawk and planned its tasks during Exercise Northern Strike 25-2, a large, biannual multinational exercise sponsored by the National Guard Bureau that took place in Michigan this August. The exercise sees units practice a wide variety of offensive and defensive operations jointly in battle scenarios.
The Guardsman, whose name has not been released, used the OPV Black Hawk to transport a 2,900-pound water buffalo slingload entirely by remote control, according to the Thursday release.
Reminds me a bit of the Navy using modified Xbox controllers for the photonic masts (modern periscopes) in Virginia-class submarines — and sailors picking them up with almost zero training.

IF JEWS RAN THE WORLD, DO YOU REALLY THINK THEY’D RUN IT LIKE THIS? Mamdani leans into Sarsour support, Muslim faith & ‘Islamophobia’ claims in campaign finale.
One of Zohran Mamdani’s final rallies in New York City centered on his Islamic identity as he rallied Muslim voters and condemned the alleged “Islamophobia” against him, while his campaign thanked a group closely linked both to the NYC mayoral hopeful and to controversial Palestinian-American activist Linda Sarsour.
Mamdani’s campaign swing on the final weekend before Tuesday’s election featured a host of speakers and guests from both inside and outside NYC, and his campaign thanked at least one group — the Muslim Democratic Club of New York (MDCNY) — which had been led by Sarsour and also previously featured Mamdani as part of the executive board.
A Just the News review previously found that Mamdani embraced a nearly decade-long association with high-profile anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian activist Linda Sarsour as he rose from an activist to New York State assemblyman and now the Democratic Party’s nominee to run America’s largest city.
Sarsour has generated plenty of headlines over the years, but this might be my favorite: Biden Disavowed Antisemite Linda Sarsour. Then His White House Hosted Her.
Democrats playing footsie with Islamic supremacists is nothing new; it’s just that they’d never nominated one for New York City mayor before.
I’D HAVE MORE SYMPATHY IF THEY HADN’T GONE WILDLY ANTI-TRUMP IN 2016: Internet Archive’s legal fights are over, but its founder mourns what was lost.
You may recall, they were pushing claims that Trump would wipe them out to achieve Orwellian media censorship, which in retrospect was hilariously back ward.
NEEDS MORE DATA: The Ozempic effect is finally showing up in obesity data. “According to the latest results from Gallup’s survey, self-reported obesity has started to fall, declining by nearly 3 points to 37 percent in 2025. The self-reporting part is an important limitation — people’s reporting of their weight tends to be imprecise — and we’ll need more definitive proof from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to be sure, but it’s some of the earliest evidence that the US may finally be turning a corner on one of the biggest health crises of the modern age.”
