So much wrong here, so little time:

So, a California Court is going to govern Florida?

So, can we sue the IRS, the FBI, the democrat party? Can we do so in Florida?

So, does Texas get to rule California now through its Courts?

Disney was running its own local government. Only Disney is allowed to weaponize government. /spit

“The lawsuit filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida...” <-— this is a federal court

Since when does “political retaliation” state a cause of action? And weaponizing government? If it does, a lot of Democrats are in big trouble!

Disney hires some very weird people.

One recent employee was caught taking upskirt photos of women, and men too maybe. It had been happening a long time.

Disney claimed they didn't know anything about it.

Sounds like a great plan.












Providing they only take money from people who have owned slaves.


And only give it to people who have been slaves.
