"DeSantis and Disney feud escalates with lawsuits and voter backlash"

A board backed by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has announced that it will counter-sue Disney over the state's long-running dispute for authority of the entertainment giant's central Florida theme park. The move comes less than a week after Disney sued DeSantis and the board in federal court, claiming that the governor retaliated against it for speaking out against Florida's Parental Rights in Education bill. The ongoing fight between Disney and DeSantis over control of its Florida-based theme parks pits the California-based entertainment giant against a powerful governor who is expected to run for president.
