BREAKING: Ron DeSantis polices Disney's speech again, taking over its property district in Orlando, packing the board with his political donors and cronies.

For almost 100 years, the right aimed to give companies more rights - including on speech.

DeSantis is undoing all that.

@tristansnell I look at this from a slightly different perspective for a moment - Trump brought the idea that the Federal Government was just a private corporation run by the President, who doles out benefits and punishments according to his personal interests.
DeSantis is extending that model to State government, as long as he is in charge of course.
And, I would submit that this has long been the model in many smaller county and town governments at many scales.
This is one of the dangers that the founders of our democracy were very well aware of.
@tristansnell I would finally watch The Mandalorian series if Disney would just issue a press announcement saying, “That does it, enough’s enough, screw Florida, we’re moving Walt Disney World elsewhere”
@tristansnell Why does anyone ever want to go to Florida? It's hot, buggy, full of alligators, & threaded through with feral desantises & crazy racists.
