When I first saw this clip I thought she was referring to Charlie’s favorite brand of hot sauce. But no, as it turns out they are selling Kirk Hot Sauce for $8.99.
Erika Kirk: “It’s the little things. I miss Charlie when I see his hot sauce on the shelf, which is now available at grocery stores everywhere.” It’s an instinct.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Erika Kirk did not say the hot sauce "is now available at grocery stores everywhere." In the Dec. 2025 clip, she said seeing his hot sauce in the grocery store hits her hard and she wants to buy it. dailymail.co.uk/media/article-… kirkshotsauce.com

Thinking about some questions to ask DoD: 1. The Fifth Fleet commander is based in Manama, Bahrain. 2. That base was destroyed in the opening days of the “war” and no casualties were reported. 3. Did the Fifth Fleet Commander evacuate before the US initiated strikes on Iran? 4. Where is the Fifth Fleet commander today? 5. Why is he not embarked on one of the ships in the region?

For months, White House chief of staff Susan Wiles raised concerns about Pete Hegseth's management of the Pentagon, personal disputes, and habit of self-promotion, according to numerous people familiar with the matter. With her gone, Hegseth quickly posts this meme of him and Miller:
Stand. Fight. Defend the Republic.

I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan. I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all. He is a danger to the entire world. He must be impeached.

Last month Russell Brand spoke at a MAHA event with JD Vance, RFK Jr., and Mehmet Oz. He started his conversation with a distasteful joke about consent. Today, he was found guilty of rape. Why are Republicans giving these people platforms?

On November 5, 1775, General George Washington criticized his colonial troops for celebrating Pope's Night, an anti-Catholic gathering held every November 5 in England and the American colonies in which effigies of the pope were burned. Washington called it a "ridiculous and childish custom" that offended French & Irish troops in the colonial army, and harmed relations with Canada, a potential ally in the American Revolution. "Instead of offering the most remote insult, it is our duty to address public thanks to these our Brethren embarked in the same cause." irishboston.org/2023/bostons… @America250 @REV250BOS @RevSpaces @MHS1791 @TheBostonPilot @BCComm

The struggles without Lamar Jackson have reached historic levels. The Ravens’ 33-10 loss to the Jaguars marks the first time in their 31-year history that they’ve lost three straight games by 20 or more points.

The shellacking has focused him like a laser
President Trump tonight criticizes the Senate for not making daylight saving time permanent: "Sunset was 5:06 P.M., and it was dark by 5:31 P.M. — Isn’t that ridiculous?"

Republicans, this is your guy. Enjoy.
Trump on ballroom: The kitchen is going t be top of the line. There has never been anything built like this and it is for the country. When I was in China, we went to the great hall of China, and it is incredible. This is actually larger.

That CBS number is incredible — and by incredible and I mean spectacularly and catastrophically awful. They should have ran a replay of Chiefs-Broncos.
Average prime time viewership for the 6 biggest networks on election night: NBC: 6.52 million ABC: 4.91 million CNN: 3.93 million MS NOW: 3.92 million Fox News: 3.88 million CBS: 2.63 million

In an era where future Hall of Famers dominated the Cy Young Award race, @Jim22Palmer was twice as good as the competition. The @Orioles ace became the first American League pitcher to win two outright Cy Young Awards #OTD in 1975. ow.ly/mKEl5103Q2U
