    That would be #Disney's argument.
    The US Constitution says [in part]:
    • No State shall ... pass any... Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts ....
    constitution.congress.gov/brow
    • ... private property [shall not] be taken for public use, without just compensation.
    constitution.congress.gov/brow
    • No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States
    constitution.congress.gov/brow
    • nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law
    constitution.congress.gov/brow
    • [The Government] shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech
    constitution.congress.gov/brow
    • [The Government] shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of ... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
    constitution.congress.gov/brow

    So a legislative campaign to overturn Disney's contracts and privileges (including property rights that were granted) as part of a (ludicrously well-documented) retaliatory campaign to punish Disney for gently opining that the #FLGOP demonization of the 10% of Floridians who are gay and/or trans is wrong-headed and bad for business seems unAmerican and unconstitutional. #DeSantis is trying to win the public debate by argumentum ad baculum, which the concept of democracy enshrined in the Constitution cannot allow.

  9. @slcw I agree.

    The questions asked by the Judge on 2022/04/01 and 2022/06/21 don't reflect prejudgment, but rather that the Judge was paying attention to the news. The unique way #FLGOP telegraphs its punches would stick in any jurist's mind.

    I hunted down the cases, but unfortunately could not find fuller transcripts for context. But do you know who would have fuller transcripts? The judge.
