DeSantis Stomps on the mouse's tail.

Governor DeSantis

spoke at a Jan. 12 press conference at the The Villages. “Disney no longer have its own government,” DeSantis said. “Disney will live under the same laws as anybody else, and Disney will pay the debts and taxes—and that’s exactly what’s going to happen.”
Previously, Walt Disney Company enjoyed, through its independent Reedy Creek Improvement District municipality, special privileges. Past legislation gave Disney powers beyond regular municipalities. Disney World opened Oct. 1, 1971, and ran its park and other businesses inside its municipality, including fire, police and other public safety functions without elections or outside interference.
The company’s Disney-appointed board seized private property through eminent domain, issued no-bid contracts, and operating exempt from the regulatory reviews that apply to other businesses in the state.
All that ends when Governor DeSantis signs the bill into law.

SQUEEEEEEEK!

Ha-ha. Times are a changing' and it's great. Poor Walt, been turning in his grave for years.

DeSantis is making all the right moves for an eventual move to running for POTUS.

I think he is just making his State better & greater. Down the road I see a president myself, just not yet.

Absolutely, after he serves four years as VP.

Unless he tries to (I forget the term) break away from the rest of the US. Then he'll be President of the Democratic Republic of Florida
Just jesting, I like him.

Good for him . Disney is great when it comes to comics and the initial films.

I would say it all went downhill sometime around the early 90s. I wonder what changes occurred.

DeSantis isn't gonna leave the governorship of Florida to be VP, for anybody, especially DJT, nor should he.

florida is risky as it is because hurricanes so all this will do is drive disney out of the state, along with all their billions of dollars and might motivate universal and the various other companies to leave too. all these actions will do in the end is impoverish florida, all because ideals Republican voters dont even care about but seem to think they do, while not realizing its all rhetoric that ambitious opportunists are spouting, all the while laughing about how foolish the common person is for allowing emotion and false idealism to dictate their decisions, to allow themselves to be manipulated by politicians so easily with lies.

I want to like him but...
Apparently he is partners in a diamond mine with Fauci and has some underage girl party issues.

Good move with Disney though.
They are a big part of producing this woke propaganda and are "islanders."

The word you're looking for is "secede" and it's definitively unconstitutional.

a reply to: putnam6I totally agree, why would he at this point turn his back on his constituents?

a reply to: TzarChasm
That's the word! Thank you!
Unconstitutional?
Maybe it should be constitutional right if you want to secede? Sounds more democratic to me. Unconstitutional can be read as bully boy rules and laws to control, no?
Anyway..... off topic.

This won't drive Disney out of the state, they won't ever be able to own as much land in another state #1 Disney Cruise Line isn't gonna operate out of Detroit Michigan #2 they still own quite a bit of political influence, this is more a publicity move for DeSantis than slapping Disney hard.

Wrong again warden.
These turds work for us.

We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are … endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights…. That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men…. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. … Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Declaration of Independence (1776)

That's quite a slur. Please identify the names and ages of the women in the photo as well as what type of alcoholic drink is portrayed.
