Citizens United should be scrapped and Disney doesn't have a leg to stand on in trying to sue the government of FL.I've noted ever since the ruling that it was the correct ruling. That the government has no business going after either individuals or a business because of what they have to say. So tell me, why should a governor be able to attack a business simply because that business has a business model the governor disagrees with?
This is the same thing the lawsuit was brought over in the first place. A group created a movie that showed Hillary in a negative light and some wanted the government to be able to shut them down.
What could be more un-American than that?
When the Supreme Court in 2010 handed down its ruling on Citizens United v. FEC, Democrats were scandalized. Then-President Barack Obama warned it would "open the floodgates" to corporations influencing politics by diminishing restrictions on corporate speech.
But now, as Disney v. DeSantis has become an actual legal battle — with the Walt Disney Corporation suing the Florida governor for retaliating against it after CEO Bob Iger criticized DeSantis' policies — the political roles have reversed. Liberals remain scandalized (albeit for different reasons) but now seek the protections the Citizens United ruling offers.
The Supreme Court's Citizens United decision was a pain in the neck for Democrats. Now, it could be used to their advantage in the Disney v. DeSantis feud.
Both Democrats and Republicans do this.And when Republicans attack citizens’ free speech, the people fight back in the courts and at the ballot box.
Most of us want to protect our children from deviates and deviate behaviors in the name of decency and traditional or religious values.This is a lie.
There’s nothing ‘deviant’ about being gay and transgender, and neither pose a threat to children.
It’s about the fear, ignorance, bigotry and hate of the authoritarian right.
It’s neither the role nor responsibility to government to interfere with private companies; Disney is at liberty to be critical of Republicans’ fear, ignorance, bigotry, and hate directed at gay and transgender Americans.
No. The governmental purpose here is to actually establish government on Disney land vs. it being its own little pedo fiefdom, k?Not what the law says, but you can be wrong if you want to.
Disney has a winning argument when it claims that the new district’s abrogation of contracts violates the “Contracts Clause” of the Constitution. That clause prohibits a state from passing a law “impairing the Obligation of Contracts.” When it comes to contracts made with the state itself, the Supreme Court has held that any interference must be “necessary” to serve an “important” governmental purpose. The governmental purpose here — as repeatedly articulated by DeSantis and other Florida Republicans — was to retaliate against Disney for its “woke” politics. Far from being “important,” that governmental purpose is legally impermissible.
Why?Disney will win.
They will not.Disney will win.
Are you a lawyer?As already noted. DeSantis first amendment violations.
So you are just guessing.I don't have to be to understand the simplicity of the 1st Amendment.
Dominion settled out of court.I "guessed" Dominion would win also.
They still settled out of court.$800 million dollars because the writing was on the wall.
Out of court settlement is not a win.$800 million dollars.
Tucker walked away a rich man and Fox News is tumbling in the ratings. Tucker got the last laugh.LOL, it certainly wasn't for Tucker.
