FLORIDA! Why is your governor so weak?

He’s raising your taxes all because he’s losing a pissing contest with Mickey Mouse.

He has such little respect for you. He’s already lied to you enough about CRT, a college-level class that IS NOT being taught in elementary schools. Oh but don’t worry, he’s going to come in and save the day. 🙄 He’s going to “save the children”. Give me a break. He lied to you and you fell for it. He's laughing at you, just like trump. He doesn’t give af about you. Now he’s raising your taxes, some have estimated up to 25% without even asking you all because he’s sooo weak and fragile like a lil baby.

And what exactly did Disney do that’s worth your taxes going up 25%? Oh yeah! They spoke out against the bill. So he’s trying to censor them? I thought you guys were all for free speech. What happened? Apparently, Disney can’t have free speech in Florida. He’s not even strong enough to criticize Disney for legitimate reasons and trust me, there are plenty.

But no, he thinks you are so gullible, and many of you are, that you’re going around calling them groomers. Trying to cancel them because they’re “indoctrinating children” 🙄🙄 Once again, Ron DeSantis is not bright enough to actually criticize people, entities, or businesses on the merits. No, he has to make shit up. Just like this week, he’s canceling math books because they’re teaching CRT in math. WTF?!?!

You know, if the GOP actually had ideas, policies, and legislation that actually helped American families, they wouldn’t have to create boogeymen. Oooh but no worries, big strong Ron DeSantis is here to save the day FOR PROBLEMS THAT DON’T EXIST.

Idk Florida, maybe this is something you like. Being disrespected over and over and over again by a lying clown and having your taxes raised.

I've got no sympathy with the governor, but I was amazed at the special tax status that Disney had for such a long time. Reminded me of the Vatican - a state within a state.

@SunshineGirl This state, from the 1800s has been zealous about development and growth. We parceled off this state before our great grandparents were born, so when Disney came along and promised to tame the whole state, they were given the keys to the kingdom, so to speak.

Whatever the ethics of it back then, it's like trying to pick the gold thread out of a sweater at this point.
@SunshineGirl It *is* true that the Disney theme/amusement park properties in both California and Florida are definitely enclaved within their respective states--and share this trait with both Vatican City, and the [Most Serene] Republic of San Merino, which are both enclaved within Italy.

However, the Vatican and San Merino actually *are* recognized as being nations unto themselves. Disney, via the Reedy Creek Improvement District, has had governmental powers...but the powers of a *local*, not *national* government.

They couldn't make valid currency, etc., declare wars...

Though I guess DeSantis *did* take Disney's stance as a declaration of war.

@SomeMichGuy So no chance of me being appointed ambassador? 😉
@SunshineGirl DeSantis might. Go ask him. Tell him you speak Disney-ese fluently, you can infiltrate their leftist hell-hole, and confront Mouse the Great and Terrible on behalf of all right-thinking people [apparently, those who believe in capitalism & free speech when the capitalists who got rich agree with them...].

@SomeMichGuy I don't think I'm the right woman, I've had a secret crush on Minnie since I was 5 😍

@SomeMichGuy Great idea! 🙂 Do you think he'll agree to officiate at our same-sex, cross-species wedding? 👩💖🐭
@SunshineGirl Lmao! He'd probably grab Minnie to make sure she didn't have male genitalia!
