I distrust the 'Friends Of Disney'.

Did you see their recent connection to Gislaine Maxwell? It was pretty thin...

But Project Veritas broke the story on ABC (a.k.a.- Disney) years ago stopping the Epstein story.

Lots of friends of Disney seem good with that.

By the way, any of Epstein/Maxwells customers been named yet?

Yes, it is probably awkward to acknowledge that Project Veritas gets SO much right, despite the hate campaign.

DeSantis may be slightly more intelligent than Trump but not by much. The Florida vendetta against Disney made for headlines that Trumpists found titillating--the reality is less inspiring. While revoking the Disney district looks like a nice stunt (that's what happens when you oppose our absurd culture war laws!!) it probably won't amount to anything since it violates the Florida constitution as well as that of the US.

'The Contractual Impossibility of Unwinding Disney’s Reedy Creek'
In authorizing Reedy Creek to issue bonds, the Florida legislature included a remarkable statement—included in Reedy Creek’s bond offerings—regarding its own promise to bondholders: “The State of Florida pledges to the holders of any bonds issued under this Act that it will not limit or alter the rights of the District to own, acquire, construct, reconstruct, improve, maintain, operate or furnish the projects or to levy and collect the taxes, assessments, rentals, rates, fees, tolls, fares and other charges provided for herein … until all such bonds together with interest thereon, and all costs and expenses in connection with any action or proceeding by or on behalf of such holders, are fully met and discharged.”

The bill dissolving Reedy Creek doesn’t say what should happen to these debts, but another statute does: By default, the local general-purpose government—the county—assumes the district’s debt, along with all of its assets. This means that theoretically, Orange and Osceola counties will inherit upward of $1 billion in bond debt.

In case it was not obvious, dissolving Reedy Creek “limited” and “altered” its ability to improve and maintain its project and collect its various charges and taxes, and thus Florida would be violating its pledge to bondholders by dissolving Reedy Creek. However, even without that explicit language, the bill dissolving Reedy Creek would have problems under contracts clauses of the Florida and U.S. constitutions.

Stating that the county assumes the debt is simple enough—actually figuring out what that means is a different story. Reedy Creek spans both Orange and Osceola counties, so how will the debt be divided? Would it be by taxable value of property or by the properties themselves? And how would that apply to the utility revenue bonds when there is no easy way to divide which county the utilities rest in?

These difficult questions point to the basic contractual issue. By dissolving Reedy Creek, the legislature essentially rewrote the promises made in the district’s bond offerings. Instead of bonds backed by a special district with the power to levy up to 30 mills in taxes, the property tax bonds will be backed jointly by two governments that can only generate a maximum of 10 mills in taxes. Instead of a unified utility system with special powers to charge various fees, supported by special taxing powers, utility revenue bonds will be jointly managed by two counties subject to additional taxing and spending restrictions.

Both the U.S. and Florida constitutions place strict limitations on the government’s ability to impair its own contracts. Under the U.S. Constitution, a state can only impair an existing contract if the impairment is reasonable and necessary to serve an important government purpose. As early as 1866, the U.S. Supreme Court held that once a local government issues a bond based on an authorized taxing power, the state is contract-bound and cannot eliminate the taxing power supporting the bond. The Florida Constitution provides even greater protection from impairment of contracts.

Surely this report is mistaken. DeSantis is for greater freedom, right?

'Teachers Told to Remove Rainbows, Photos of Same-Sex Spouses as DeSantis' "Don't Say Gay" Law Goes Into Effect'
Teachers in Orange County, Florida are being told to scrape rainbow stickers off doors and windows, take photos of their families off their desks if they have a same-sex spouse, and are being directed to report if a student comes out as LGBTQ, as Governor Ron DeSantis‘ “Don’t Say Gay” law goes into effect July 1, according to a teachers’ organization.

Attorneys for the district held meetings with administrators last week, and “advised principals what behaviors would and would not be legal under the law during a ‘Camp Legal’ presentation,” ABC affiliate WFTV reports.

The Orange County Teachers’ Association (CTA) says teachers are also being told they cannot wear rainbows on their clothing, “including lanyards distributed by the district last year.” Elementary school teachers are also being told to not even discuss their families if they have a same-sex spouse.

Stickers denoting a particular classroom is a “safe space” for LGBTQ students and others are to be removed, and “teachers will have to report to parents if a student ‘comes out’ to them and they must use pronouns assigned at birth, regardless of what the parents allow, the CTA reported.”

Yeah, so much better than that drooling, senile Biden.

'Florida offers new training for teachers that says it was a "misconception" that "the Founders desired strict separation of church and state"'
New civics education training for Florida teachers promotes inaccurate ideas about the separation of church and state, teachers told The Washington Post.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Department of Education announced that they'll host 10 regional 3-day civics professional learning training sessions for 2,500 teachers this summer to accommodate over 2,500 teachers during the summer of 2022. The training comes with a $700 stipend.

The FDOE said the training would "be aligned to the revised civics and government standards," but some teachers have expressed concern about the instructions.

During a press conference on Thursday, DeSantis said the new civic education was pushing back on the "woke indoctrination" of children and said kids in the state were learning "real history."

"We're unabashedly promoting civics and history that is accurate and that is not trying to push an ideological agenda," he said.

According to the Post, the training included the phrase that it is a "misconception" that "the Founders desired strict separation of church and state."

"My takeaway from the training is that civics education in the state of Florida right now is geared toward pushing some particular points of view," Broward County teacher Richard Judd told the Post. "The thesis they ran with is that there is no real separation of church and state."

Judd told the Post trainers that teachers were told, "This is the way you should think."

Florida Man strikes - twice within a few seconds.
Fort Walton Beach Police were called to the CEFCO for a stolen vehicle.

"Elijah Sutton entered the parking lot of the CEFCO and forcibly removed the victim from his company vehicle," police said in a release.

"Sutton then attempted to run over the victim who was fleeing on foot. During Sutton’s attempt to strike the victim, Sutton struck a parked vehicle and a fuel island — where the victim was attempting to seek shelter," police said.

Police say Sutton then sped through the parking lot to flee the scene but struck a light pole.

Florida man does road rage.
A Florida man is facing multiple charges after a road rage incident last summer in which his own dash cam caught him aimlessly firing nearly a dozen shots at another driver.

Florida talk show hose Andy Slater obtained the video, which shows Eric Popper, 30, take a gun out of his center console and wait until the other driver pulls along side him. Then he haphazardly opens fire through his own car windows, firing 11 shots, several with his eyes apparently closed.

The Florida Highway Patrol said the Popper opened fire because he thought the other driver shot first, WPLG reported.

In truth, the other driver, who has not been named, threw a water bottle at Popper’s car after Popper cut him off on busy Interstate 95 on just before 7 a.m. on June 21, 2021. The other driver, who did not have a weapon, honked his horn, prompting Popper to shout, “Oh, f*** off” and then slam on his brakes.

Investigators said that the other driver briefly tailgated Popper, making obscene gestures out his window as Popper fumbles with his center console to retrieve his gun. Then he waits for the other driver to pull alongside him and begins firing, first out his passenger window then out the front windshield. The other driver was not hit, but his car was.

Both drivers pulled over a short time later and called 911.

The state highway patrol investigated — Popper voluntarily handed over his dash cam video for the investigation — and charged Popper with several counts, including aggravated assault with a firearm. He turned himself in to authorities on July 21 and later bonded out. His next hearing is scheduled for April 28, according to court records.

Popper was a civilian fire inspector for the city of Miami Beach but resigned shortly after the road rage incident, WPLG reported.
