, his new book reveals he warned the entertainment giant about its political activities.

Iger, DeSantis notes, had already publicly come out against the bill."Somehow," the Florida governor writes, Iger said the bill would “put vulnerable, young LGBTQ people in jeopardy.” “Do not get involved with this legislation,” DeSantis says he responded. “You will end up putting yourself in an untenable position. People like me will say, ‘Gee, how come Disney has never said anything about China, where they make a fortune?’"over what he called Disney's"corporate kingdom" as he signed into law a bill taking over the company's special governing area.

People all over the world love Disney ❤️ will they judge Florida for how they are attacking the Disney they know and love ? Will People stay away because of it

Boy that just sealed a lawsuit of abuse of power by Ron Destupid.

🗑🤡🖕

nbc & its various tentacles are of COURSE spinning it as 'EvilWhiteMaleRepublican hates progressive america'. 🤡 MSNBC maddow JoyAnnReid AriMelber

How are those job cuts working out for ya Orlando?

WOMEN MUST FIGHT FOR SELF-GOVERNING STATUS. TREASONagainstWOMEN WOMEN PURSEpolitical👜

So DeSantis made Disney a socialist entity?

Best thing ever, cope.

So, what happens to the bond? Who's gonna cover that bill? Florida taxpayers is my bet.

I don’t want our kindergartener being taught anything on any subject that is not age appropriate. DeSantis was right to stand up to Disney. We’ve had 15 vacations at Disney World Resorts and it is supposed to be family friendly, especially for kindergarten age kids.

Yay!

They will leave

It is time for Disney to close all operations until the governor can personally assure the state that all facilities are up to code. Every ride, every toilet, every outlet, throughout the entire 43 square miles.

Time to put corporations back where they belong; Out of politics.

just like a good up and coming mob boss would! he's trying to copy Donald to a T!

GovRonDeSantis book called…

DeSantis is planning his post gubernatorial book: Mein Kampf- The DeSantis Chapters.

It always sickens me when i see a politician abuse his office in this way.

Disney got too big for its Mouse britches .. glad it’s being knocked down a peg …

Entertain me Disney. Don’t mix in politics.

I doubt it he kept on talking contributions for incentives until very recently

I wish WaltDisneyWorld would decide to leave Florida and go to a friendlier state

Corporations should take note. But they won’t.

When did Democrats become supporters of big greedy corporations?

NBC YOU LOOK FOOLISH AGAIN TRUMP WAS RIGHT AND HOW DOES CROW TASTE! HELL YES CHINA DID DEVELOP THE CHINA VIRUS.

The SCOTUS says corporations are people so, Disney is entitled to free speech! NaziFlorida is still in The US, right? Call the lawyers!

He's an evil man.

I hope Disney leaves Florida.

Good for him

Disney move out of florida!

Ron DeSantis, seen here putting a padlock on the gates of DisneyWorld ...

Doesn't go far enough

I wish Disney would pull up shop and move to another state.....even north or south Carolina. F floriDUH and deathsantis

DeSantis is an authoritarian, and the media needs to stop normalizing him.

Now to the Christian religion ronny

He's going to really appreciate the meaning of FAFO

Why should taxpayers be upset that one of the richest companies in the world has to pay a higher rate of taxes than their 1960s sweetheart deal with paid off politicians allowed?

Love Ron 🇺🇸❤️

Shouldnt we be happy that a private company took care of themselves and didn't rely on government?

Sounds like very big guv to me.....

Florida will come to regret this.. it's gonna cost them a fortune

So he admits he wipes his ass with the Constitution. Awesome.

A Desantis/Trump ticket would be unstoppable!

GovRonDeSantis is so far right that he mines well be a radical leftist. Because I sure the hell can’t tell the difference anymore.

So if he becomes president will he also go after all the companies across America that refuse to follow his racist and homophobic ways?...🤔

Crush DeSantis. Sue the state of Florida and DeSantis for the whole state Disney

Time for Disney to flex its financial muscle. States ( red/ blue) will be lining up to welcome Disney🤷‍♂️

🤡🤡

Desantis is now treating Florida like it is his private little China no free speech. Intimidate corporations and blackmail them into submission. This does not bode well for American democracy. Disagree with me I take away your livelihood. Desantis should be voted out of office.

As long as Disney was donating to Republicans, their political activities were perfectly fine. The moment they stood up for LGBTQ, DeSantis became sanctimonious and retaliated! Absolutely PATHETIC!

Why is NBC giving RonDeathSatan a free book promotion?

His new book says…..LMAO

Are book deals bad now?

Disney can always relocate to a bluer, more intelligent, business minded state. Desantistan is no place for *the greatest place on earth* anyway...

Citizens United gave corporations a seat at the table. And now you don't like it. You took the campaign donations, but don't like the opinions.

Liberals always cry “tax the rich”. So DeSantis taxes the rich and now they’re mad at DeSantis😂 make up your little minds

Tyranny.

A democracy warning a private company about their political activities isn’t so much a democracy.

Fascist Ron cancels Disney.

RonDeSantisFL you flaming fascist, go {redacted} yourself.

Great

Go WOKE Go BROKE! Stay away from are kids Disney😡
