Ron DeSantis floats building a prison next to Walt Disney World as feud heats up again

The feud between Disney and DeSantis has gone up another notch.

The Florida governor is floating the idea of building a prison near the Disney theme park.

The threat comes as DeSantis vows to take new steps to assert state control over the special district overseeing the media and entertainment giant’s property.

The Republican has been fighting with Disney since the company criticised Florida law preventing gender and sexuality education in schools.

The feud has drawn national and international attention.

It comes as speculation grows about whether DeSantis will put his hat in the ring for the Republican presidential candidate.

DeSantis is yet to announce plans to run in the 2024 contest, but has raised his profile by promising to confront what he calls a “woke” liberal agenda in education and corporate America. #trending #featured
