The people who lived in the District appreciated how well it was maintained and didn't ask to have it dissolved. It was retaliation. DeSantis as much as said so multiple times. They are passing bills to single out a single company...Disney. It's up to the court to decide the legality...but I question the leadership ability of anyone who uses the power of the government to retaliate against those with political differences
And Georgia was perfectly fine with the tax breaks they gave Delta until Delta criticized their new laws on voting. I even provided you with the link above. Taking away special privileges isn't violating your rights, it's treating you the same as everyone else. Now, if they imposed penalties unique to Disney you'd have a point, but what they did was take away special privileges unique to Disney. The comparison to the Delta/GA case is an apples to apples comparison. Disney has no case here.
