DeSantis appointees vow crackdown on Disney World's district: "Nothing is off the table"

The new chair of Disney World's revamped governing body said Wednesday that it was "shameful" for Disney to sign agreements with their predecessors stripping them of most of their authority.
"Our board wanted to work with Disney, but Disney decided they didn't want to work with us. It was Disney's way or the highway," Martin Garcia, chair of the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District, said at the start of a board meeting.
Garcia said that the new supervisors, who were appointed by Florida's Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, had good intentions about collaborating with the company. And in response, he had a warning about what the new supervisors who now oversee Disney World's vast Florida holdings might try to achieve in the evolving showdown between the governor and Disney.

A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
