    Why are the 2000 other special tax districts still getting special treatment? Laws SHOULD apply equally to all, but this one targets only one entity and purely as a political revenge.

    So, Florida lost the $1B investment, and will probably lose more in the future.

    For a $1B investment, Floridians are supposed to let the radical Democrat supporting Teachers' Unions sexually groom K-3rd graders? Can you see which fingers Floridians are sticking up to Disney?

    And it's not just Floridians, Disney has lost over HALF its market cap in a year and half.

    You do understand Disney is a private business, not a public school, private school, or even a university. If you cannot get that disconnect, then there is no hope for you.

    Big competition from firearm deaths, I guess. Be that as it may, your original false statement that liberal states had the worst response to covid has been debunked with numbers and facts. And we can assume you won't be repeating that nonsense any time soon. So my job is done.

    Thanks for playing....

    Agreed. The Lying Fake News Media is trying to give that impression, but they killed it because it was stupid concept that was going to flop, and Disney has been hurt so badly by their string of flops, that they are trying to side step so obvious future ones.

    Lying Fake New CNN wish-casting tourism decline for Florida

    [​IMG]

    'Florida has just had its highest quarter for tourism in its history, “and our view is we want everybody to succeed regardless of their skin color.”'

    'Dana Young – president and CEO of Visit Florida, the state’s official tourism marketing corporation – echoed calling advisories a “political stunt”'

    '“It is disappointing when partisan organizations attempt to weaponize travel in pursuit of political ends. Travel advisories issued with blatant factual misrepresentations are a disservice to the traveling public and are disrespectful to the incredibly diverse visitors and residents that are proud to call Florida home,” Young said in the statement, adding that “Florida had the largest market share of any state in the country among African American vacationers with 21.4%” last year.'

    Interestingly, Blacks are one of the groups that are the LEAST in favor of Grooming children.

    'While the travel advisories may be making' lying fake news headlines, 'there’s no indication that they will translate into less tourism traffic on the ground.'

    'In 2022, Florida welcomed 137.6 million visitors, the most in the state’s history, according to Visit Florida estimates. Just last week, the governor’s office touted that the state attracted a record 37.9 million visitors between January and March 2023.'

    'Scott Keyes, founder of Going.com – an airfare tracking site – says he’s seen no impact in demand for flights to Miami or Orlando, both in the top 10 for US tourist destinations.'

    That's the way of a lot lying fake news, wish-casting, rebuked by reality, denied by the believers.

    Well, that is complete BS and you are acknowledging that you are a legend in your own mind.

    Your claim is fake news. As I told you before: 'While he was not a DECLARED candidate, my statement was true. I never claimed that he would NEVER become one.'

    Your statement was whether he was a declared candidate or not in that he either won't win the GOP or you will claim the GOP committed election fraud. That was your statement. You emphatically endorsed Trump no matter what and that DeSantis really should not run at all.

    Your reading comprehension is so flawed that it's difficult to believe that you're really as confused as you claim. And your claims about my positions are fabrications.

    My claim was completely accurate which seems to have sent you off the deep end.

    Standing by for your retraction and apology.

    LOL, we all know your loyalty is to Trump and Trump alone, not to the country, not to the flag, but to a singular person. And that was your point when you made that post a long time ago. So, stop trying to BS your way here Zorro.

    Fake News. Your claim is false. That's why you aren't supporting it despite repeated opportunities to do so. And stick to the topic, and stop trying to make your fellow poster the topic.

    Ron DeSantis Signs 4 Medical Freedom Bills Into Law
    • 'ensures no patient is forced by a business, school, or government entity to undergo testing, wear a mask, or be vaccinated for COVID-19.
    • affords medical professionals the freedom to prescribe alternative treatments
    • protects physicians’ right to deny service if against their moral, ethical, or religious beliefs.
    • bans “unsafe and unregulated” gain-of-function research.'

      'These expanded protections will help ensure that medical authoritarianism does not take root in Florida.”

      “Governor DeSantis has been a pinnacle for freedom, and today we advance the cause of public health and individual autonomy in medical decisions,” said State Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo. “From empowering patients to safeguarding children in schools, Florida continues to enshrine individual liberty and lead with common sense.”

    seems to me only a foolish person would go after a huge employer within the state on the grounds of "sexual grooming" without simultaneously investigating all religious, and bible type indoctrination of children

    So, we are back to blaming the presidents not the States, governors, mayors, media, China etc. Good to know.

    Their crime was grooming, it was disagreeing with the government (DeSantis).
