Column: How Disney's lawyers brutally manhandled DeSantis over control of Disney World

Now let’s review some of the history.

Creation of the district was a deal that Florida’s then-Republican governor, Claude Kirk, signed into law in 1967. The Florida Legislature got around to finalizing the takeover of Reedy Creek in February. DeSantis promptlyfor the newly established Central Florida Tourism Oversight District consisting of Republican and conservative stooges, including a founder of the right-wing censorship-happy organization Moms for Liberty, who happens to be an architect of the “Don’t Say Gay” law and the wife of the chairman of the Florida Republican Party.

The new board members knew nothing about the agreement until they took office. They disclosed their quandary Wednesday, at their first public meeting. Whether the agreement will stand up is unclear. To find an answer, the new board hired not one, not two, not three, but four law firms, including one whose lawyers will bill $795 an hour.Disney’s money has controlled Florida politics for more than 50 years. Now the politicians are showing their ingratitude.

1/2 Good Friend RobertIger empowers Disney to undermine Gov like China wants. China pressures Disney by not showing movies. “Marvel releases denied entry to China for nearly four years” After Iger installed, Avatar 2, Wakanda, Quantamania allowed 🤔

Hey GovRonDeSantis, Mickey says 'Hello' and also ⤵️

The real losers here are the Disney shareholders.

Lawrence Christina Pushaw crying along with Lady G....

It's amazing how this mini fascist from Florida can make so many regular people side with an evil corporation like Disney.

Lawrence Bitch-slapped by Minnie

Lawrence Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah!

One of my friends is the Principal Art Director at Disney Parks & Resorts. We had a good chuckle over this.

He is angry because his parents never took him to Disney

Next president hopefully, this country needs saving from the socialist left

This is my favorite song.

Mr tough talk got played

Off topic but those DeSantis presser photos are always so disturbing w/his little prop kids. Adults can barely articulate what CRT is let alone these little children who can barely spell... yet they're holding these signs as if we're meant to believe they're SO grateful. LOL.

HAHAHAHAHA... DeSantis's fragile ego started a war without an iota of thought on the vast repercussions it would have. Mickey just gave Ronny a huge, public facial and it is glorious!

ooooh but now will oil companies try to do the same in CA?

Get 'em, Gov. De Santis!!!

This is a case of grandstanding going wrong. Similar to what a Newsom just did with the oil companies. RDS goals fell short and Newsoms goals fell well short (what just was signed into law was plan C for Newsom).. my guess is the LAT won’t write honestly about that though.

janicefrye0846 I love this! Mouse: 1 DeSatan: 0

I would not be surprised at all that a corporation rules in any state. Even an amusement park.

Maybe that lawyer can go after the corruption in the LA city council and DA.

Lawrence It always felt quixotic for a light weight like DeSantis to take on Disney.

Lawrence Ronnie is in over his head.

Lawrence There was never a doubt that Disney would prevail over DeSantis. He isn’t even in the same weight class.

I am the last Hope for Humanity I know Maths.

Funny the bill never said “Don’t say Gay”. LA Times are Left Wing Goons.
