Federal Judge Dismisses Disney's Free Speech Lawsuit Against Ron DeSantis

TL;DR Summary
A federal judge dismissed Disney's free speech lawsuit against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, ruling that the company lacked standing in its First Amendment lawsuit against the governor and the secretary of the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. Disney had argued that legislation transferring control of the Disney World governing district to DeSantis appointees was in retaliation for the company opposing the state's "Don't Say Gay" law. Disney plans to appeal the decision, and a separate lawsuit over who controls the district is still pending in state court in Orlando.
