Ron DeSantis' Fight With Disney Has Cost Florida Taxpayers MILLIONS In Legal Fees
Florida governor Ron DeSantis has been fighting against the Disney Corporation for well over a year, and so far the biggest loser in this fight are the taxpayers of Florida. Taxpayers have already had to pay a few million dollars in legal fees due to the lawsuits that Disney and DeSantis are hitting each other with, and the board appointed by DeSantis this year says they'll be paying THREE TIMES as much in legal fees next year. Taxpayers should be more outraged about this, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

The Central Florida Oversight Tourism Oversight District, whatever the hell it's called. The one that took over the district that was being run by Disney World for decades down here in Florida after DeSantis got mad at him, stripped him of their ability to govern themselves and replaced it with his idiotic handpicked cronies. Well, they announced this week that, uh, they're putting together their budget for next year and, uh, get a bit of a problem here. The problem is, uh, they've spent roughly $2 million this year having to fight lawsuits against Disney. One filed by Disney. One filed against Disney. But either way, they've already spent $2 million fighting lawsuits and, uh, the new budget says, guess what, uh, we're gonna probably have to pay triple that amount for these lawsuits next year. So we're gonna need more money because we've just, we gotta get a lot of lawyers and we gotta fight these lawsuits that we're, by the way, definitely going to lose because our legal arguments are pure garbage.

But this money that this district is, is asking for, it's not money that comes from Disney. It's, it's not money that's, you know, just sitting around in Tallahassee, the capital of Florida. No, it's taxpayer money. They've spent $2 million in taxpayer money this year alone fighting lawsuits against Disney. They might spend upwards of $6 million of our tax dollars here in Florida, fighting Disney next year. W i Why? This? This is my money. Not all of it. God knows. I'm not paying that much in taxes. I never made close to that amount in my life. But this is our money. This is our money that should be going to education. Instead, y'all are attacking education. You're screwing over teachers. This is money that could go to first responders, but you're not paying more first responders. You're paying criminal cops from other states to come and be cops down here and giving 'em $5,000 bonuses.

These idiots in charge of my state from every district are funding these fights against Disney with our dollars and screwing us over on the things that we actually need. That's what this fight is all about. That's why this me off and I get, if you're not from Florida, if you don't live down here, it probably doesn't affect you as much. You know, emotionally, you don't get as mad 'cause it's not your money. And I get that. But this is my money. This is my state, this is my home. And these people are wasting our money, screwing over first responders, screwing over teachers, screwing over our infrastructure just so they can maybe eke out a victory against Disney that doesn't do a thing for anybody. Right? This fight has

Been going on for what, like two years now almost. And so far the only people losing in this fight are the taxpayers. We are the ones getting screwed by this. Disney's not getting screwed. Disney was so not screwed by this, that their lobbyists helped pay for Ron DeSantis as second inaugural ball. They're not having problems. They're still giving the a-hole money. They're giving the Republican politicians the Tallahassee money because they know the outcome of this fight isn't actually going to affect them. Whether they control the district or DeSantis is people control the district. It doesn't matter. Disney's gonna get whatever they want. It's us. The average everyday citizens and residents of the state of Florida. We are the only ones getting screwed in this.
