    "Florida Lt Gov Goes Full Facist On Disney For Supporting LGBTQ+ Kids

    Florida's GOP will not stand for dissent! Goebbels would be proud."

    "Disney has paused all political donations in Florida after the state
    approved a viciously homophobic bill that uses teachers and schools to
    attack the LGBTQ+ community, using children as its cudgel.

    After much criticized hesitation, Disney CEO Bob Chapek finally took
    action, saying, "It is clear that this is not just an issue about a bill
    in Florida, but instead yet another challenge to basic human rights. You
    needed me to be a stronger ally in the fight for equal rights and I let
    you down. I am sorry."

    Nunez attacked companies critical of the "Don't Say Gay" bill as being
    run by "feckless CEOs of these 'woke' corporations....They will
    criticize our legislation. They will try to bully us like the NCAA did,
    like Disney's doing."

    That's when her inner fascist took over.

    "How dare they! They have no right to criticize legislation by duly
    elected legislators that are passing common sense legislation to
    criticize and to threaten," Nunez said.

    In America, people have a right to redress their government, but
    apparently in Florida you have no rights at all to even speak out or
    comment on disagreements with the ruling body. If a person, a group, or
    a company has a differing opinion from Gov. DeSantis and his
    administration, you either go along or shut up. Otherwise, they will
    seek vengeance against you.

    "Gov. DeSantis and I won't stand for it. We're proud and in the free
    state of Florida we put parents and their rights first." Nunes whined.

    Does Lt. Gov. Nunez not have faintest clue what's in the Constitution or
    the Bill of Rights?"
