Watered in turn by powerful hurricanes and the blood of martyrs, Florida continues to be the scene of epic battles. Today, my home state of Florida is the site of the crucial battle between representative government and big-tech oligarchic rule.

This daring act landed him astride the broad back of Bucking Bull Bob Chapek, Walt Disney’s CEO, who was immediately roused out of the gate by the Left to, according to DeSantis, mobilize his “considerable corporate resources out of the coffers” of his “Burbank, CA-based corporation to overturn the rights of parents in the State of Florida, and effectively commandeer our democratic process.”
