@couldbexav yeah he should have just stuck to beating the shit out of his girlfriend or something totally acceptable to you all.

jaxson dart bout 2-3 hits away from permanent brain damage and four bad starts away from being benched for jameis. running around doing trump intros like he untouchable with a new coach who didn’t draft him while the GM who did could be fired in eight months comedy to me.

@its_The_Dr so satisfying. I also love how it's 5 against one and he still kicks the shit out of them

When you push MAGA too far this Happens!

@Idontgive2u The mistake you both made was the original agreement. Once you joined families those are both your kids. That's what a marriage is. But given this was something you both agreed to, I don't think he should be asking this of you.

Je suis mariée depuis six ans. J’ai un fils de 17 ans issu d’un premier mariage. Mon mari, lui, a une fille de 16 ans. Quand nous avons décidé de vivre ensemble, nous avions posé une règle très claire : chacun resterait responsable financièrement de son propre enfant pour les dépenses importantes, notamment les études. Nous avions des situations différentes, des accords différents avec nos ex-conjoints, et cela nous semblait plus simple ainsi. Depuis que mon fils a 10 ans, j’ai ouvert un livret d’épargne à son nom. Je suis infirmière. J’ai fait des gardes, des nuits, des heures supplémentaires pendant des années. À chaque prime, à chaque majoration, je mettais un peu de côté. Ce n’était pas facile. Mais je voulais qu’un jour, mon fils puisse choisir ses études sans avoir à renoncer à cause de l’argent. Aujourd’hui, cette épargne couvre presque entièrement ses frais d’études supérieures. Il y a deux mois, il a été accepté dans l’établissement qu’il rêvait d’intégrer. On a pleuré ensemble en lisant la réponse. J’ai eu l’impression que toutes ces années de fatigue et de sacrifices avaient enfin un sens. Une semaine plus tard, mon mari m’a demandé qu’on parle sérieusement. Sa fille souhaite entrer dans un établissement privé. Elle n’a pas été acceptée dans la filière publique qu’elle espérait. Les frais sont élevés. Et lui n’a pas les économies nécessaires. Son ex-femme non plus. Il m’a alors proposé ce qu’il a appelé une “solution familiale” : prendre une partie de l’épargne de mon fils pour financer les études de sa fille. Je suis restée silencieuse. Honnêtement, au début, j’ai cru qu’il plaisantait. Je lui ai rappelé que cet argent n’appartenait pas au couple. Que je l’avais économisé pendant dix ans pour mon fils. Et que dès le départ, il savait parfaitement que cet argent n’était pas destiné à être partagé. Mais il m’a répondu que maintenant, nous étions une famille. Qu’il ne devait plus y avoir “mon fils” et “sa fille”. Puis il m’a dit quelque chose qui m’a profondément blessée : “Si tu aimais vraiment ma fille, tu ferais un effort.” La discussion est devenue tendue. Je lui ai rappelé que je ne lui avais jamais demandé un centime pour constituer l’épargne de mon fils. Que je n’avais empêché personne d’anticiper ou d’économiser. Et que protéger ce que j’avais construit pendant des années ne faisait pas de moi une mauvaise personne. Sa fille a entendu une partie de la dispute. Depuis, elle est froide avec moi. Elle m’a dit qu’elle avait toujours eu l’impression que je privilégiais mon fils. Qu’elle ne comprenait pas pourquoi je ne pouvais pas “donner un peu” pour que ce soit équitable. Mais dans cette histoire, je n’enlève rien à personne. Je protège simplement l’avenir de mon enfant. Mon mari me répète que le mariage implique des sacrifices. Je lui ai répondu qu’un sacrifice ne devrait jamais se faire sur le dos d’un enfant qui n’est responsable ni des choix des adultes, ni du manque d’anticipation des autres. Depuis une semaine, nous dormons dans des chambres séparées. Pas parce que nous nous détestons. Mais parce que je sais qu’en cédant aujourd’hui, j’enverrais à mon fils le message que ses efforts — et les miens — peuvent disparaître dès qu’une pression affective apparaît. Et honnêtement… je ne sais plus si je suis une femme égoïste… ou simplement une mère qui protège ce qu’elle a construit pour son enfant. Vous en pensez quoi ?

@platinombrero tell me you live in a liberal bubble and have no idea how most people in the country feel.

being a young unproven QB in NYC and choosing to do this might be the biggest self inflicted publicity mistake I have seen in a long time

@ComplexMusic Can someone translate this into English?

Plies sends a message to Jaxson Dart after the New York Giants quarterback introduced President Trump at a Republican rally for

@EJ_Stewart causing a distraction? What? In his own free time he had the honor of introducing the president of our country. He did NOTHING wrong. If you can't see the lack of sportsmanship in publicly criticizing your own teammate, then you are hopeless

I’m seeing some common denominators from the “Abdul Carter should have kept this in house” crowd 🤔 It’s also striking that none of these same folks posed any questions about the franchise QB potentially causing a distraction yesterday 🤔🤔🤔

@financedystop People need to stop enabling this by refusing to eat at these places. Businesses are responsible for paying their workers. If they need to raise their prices to do that, fine. But stop with the hidden service charges!

Tipping culture in America and the private equity-style penny pinching of trying to squeeze every last dollar out of the consumer needs to be stopped.

@JasonLaCanfora it's YOUR OPINION that the president is a racist, fascist, etc. There is no evidence for any of those claims. None. And of course you had to bring race into it. The 'black guy' is the only one here who decided to publicly attack a teammate who did absolutely nothing wrong.

Wealthy white guy who benefitted directly from primarily black men manning the most dangerous positions so he could make millions kicking a football has no problem with white QB backing a racist, fascist, criminal scumbag but the black guy is the problem. MAGA is systemic racism

Man in dress raped his own children - his 9 year old daughter and his 8 year old son. Will serve his sentence in a WOMEN’S PRISON!!!! WHEN THE FUCK ARE YOU MORONS GOING TO WAKE UP??????

@allthekenz because jaxson dart didn't attack a teammate publicly over a difference of views. Like, how can you not see this? No one cares what Carter's political views are. If he had just posted that he hated Trump, no one would have cared. He attacked his teammate!

why is abdul carter under any obligation to worry about the locker room when jaxson dart wasn’t?

@tonyposnanski except that's not true. Give me one example of a time when an athlete introduced any Democrat and got attacked by a teammate over it. I'll wait. In fact, Dart has never criticized Carter even though he is loud about his Islamic beliefs and even prays on the field.

Just to be clear the people who are bending over backwards to defend Jaxson Dart’s introducing and excitement about Trump would be burning his jersey now if he did the same thing for Zohran Mamdani so stop trying to pretend it’s not about politics.

@FRESSHHDAILY It's illogical to say that a person proudly introducing the duly elected president of OUR country is somehow reflecting poorly on his team. People who feel that way are the problem and the reason this country is so divided. Completely blind to their own intolerance

For the record, I don’t care about Jaxson’s political affiliations My issue is that it reflects poorly on his ability to lead a team Either he was oblivious to how it could divide the locker room, or he simply didn’t care

@raven_brah you are so ignorant. Boomers never ate fast food. Do you even know what was going on in this country in the 60s and 70s? People did not eat fast food very often, if at all.

Boomers seem to forget that fast food used to be a normal, everyday expense for them because it was affordable. You could get a burger easily on minimum wage, it wasn’t some fancy treat you had once a year as a reward for pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.

@MatrixMysteries what state is this in? In CA prices went way up when the state passed a law mandating over $20 an hour for fast food workers

A 16-piece meal at Popeyes is now over $50. A BUCKET of chicken… over $50. Fast food used to be the cheap, quick option. This isn’t just inflation. It’s price gouging.

I'm sorry but 5-20 years in jail is a big range and even 20 is not enough for this sick pervert who likely won't get anywhere near the maximum. Evil psychos like this never lose the appetite for pedophilia and we seem to be manufacturing increasing numbers of them. They either need to be locked up for life or irreversibly castrated.

@StatisticUrban the premise in the question is not accurate. Most H1-b visas are entry level/low skill. corporations like it because they can get them for cheaper and it's like having an indentured servant. All but maybe 2% of visa holders are not more skilled than the American workforce.

MAGA is on the 20 side of an 80-20 issue on this. Americans really like skilled immigration!

@BigPopz72 honestly the abuse is the filming of it and posting it publicly. That is sick.

A father is going viral on TikTok for spanking his child after catching him smoking cigarettes... People are saying this is abuse.. Who got "the belt" growing up?

@dansedmonson @jemelehill he's only divisive because the left can't stop obsessing over him. He was elected by this country. He is our president, whether you like it or not. Being asked to introduce the president is a huge honor, which most normal people recognize

@jemelehill The president will always be, by nature, divisive. The criticism only comes from one side, though.

So Jaxson Dart gets to publicly express his political beliefs, but Abdul Carter doesn’t? If this is about locker room sanctity and leadership, is it a good idea for the face of the franchise to attend a political rally for a president that is considered to be hugely divisive?

@dunn1225 @jemelehill lol, Carter is LOUD about his Islamic beliefs and prays on the field. Dart has never criticized him for it.

@jemelehill I'm sorry, questioning someone's freedom of choice is not a problem? What if Carter had spoken at a Mamdani rally and Dart had questioned it? Don't you think he would have been told how to act as a teammate?

@InSrink @jemelehill Carter wasn't just expressing a political belief, he was slamming a teammate for his views.

@jemelehill Funny how ‘keep politics out of sports’ only gets said when the politics aren’t the ones they agree with. Either everyone can express their views publicly or nobody should. Can’t keep changing the rules depending on the player.
