There’s no denying that the relationship between The Walt Disney Company and the State of Florida may be damaged beyond repair, with the two parties entangled in a fiery battle over free speech and state benefits.
This all started back when Disney, who was then led by its controversial CEO Bob Chapek decided to publicly denounce Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
DeSantis threatened Disney with legal action and eventually became the victor, stripping Walt Disney World of its self-governing status and abilities.

Since the state takeover of Disney’s self-governing district, both Ron DeSantis and The Walt Disney Company have hurled lawsuits at each other, with Disney’s having a lot more staying power and bite. Disney sued Gov. Ron DeSantis for violating the 1st Amendment, with the Florida Gov. countersuing Disney.
Gov. DeSantis has made an attempt to get Disney’s lawsuit struck down but to no avail.
In the latest update to this ongoing saga, Gov. DeSantis is publicly calling out Disney to surrender.
