TALLAHASSEE (LifeSiteNews) – Whereas Disney may run the Magic Kingdom, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has made it clear that Disney doesn’t run his state.
The governor eviscerated the children’s entertainment company at a media conference on Tuesday after Disney suggested it would work to overturn the newly signed state law that protects children from inappropriate sexual material in primary education.
Referring to Disney’s California-based executives, DeSantis said that “they don’t run this state” and that the media giant had “crossed the line.” He also declared that Disney was “fundamentally dishonest” for doing so.
On Monday, DeSantis signed Florida’s anti-propaganda bill into law after it had been incorrectly labeled the “Don’t Say Gay” law.
The law is correctly known as the “Parental Rights in Education” bill, and it bans the inappropriate teaching of sexual orientation and gender identity to students in kindergarten through grade three.
He called foul on Disney for how ABC covered the story. “It’s interesting when … Disney-owned ABC would put out that on tweet, they’d say, ‘Governor DeSantis signs bill to prohibit instruction and sexual identity and gender identity in some grades.’ Some grades. Why would they say some grades instead of K through three?”
On April 3rd, Hungarians will go to the polls to decide whether to re-elect Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his Fidesz-Chrisitan Democrat (KDNP) coalition or to elect a coalition of leftist parties, now led by a wayward "Catholic," Peter Marki-Zay, who says he would allow homosexual "marriage."
On the same day, the country will decide whether or not to approve a momentous child protection law, already passed by parliament, which would protect children from being sexualized by LGBT propaganda in schools and by pornography in the mass media.
Please SIGN and PLEDGE to pray that Hungary will vote to protect its children against the onslaught of LGBT indoctrination propaganda and pornography.
Since passage of the bill, the fake news outlets from Europe to America have predictably lied about the contents of the bill, and attempted to manufacture outrage about the same. And, the corrupt European Union also joined the attack on Hungary's efforts to protect children.
But now, the Hungarian people will have their say. And, they need our prayerful support.
Please SIGN and PLEDGE to pray that Hungary will vote to protect its children against the onslaught of LGBT indoctrination propaganda and pornography.
The law specifically prohibits showing pornographic material or content portraying homosexuality or transgenderism to minors under the age of 18. Other measures include a registry of sex offenders, regulations on sexual education, and stronger policies against child pornography.
Who could be against these proactive, common sense measures to protect the innocence of children?
Peter Marki-Zay, and the left-liberal bloc he heads, is against the law, and has said that his leftist coalition will "immediately repeal this terrible act," if elected in April.
But, thankfully, the vast majority of Hungarians actually support the law.
In a recent survey, 69% of Hungarians said they disagreed with Marki-Zay when asked if the Child Protection Act should be repealed.
Now, let's provide the prayerful support Hungarians need, and beg the Lord to inspire them to get out and vote to protect their children.
Please SIGN and PLEDGE to pray that Hungary will vote to protect its children against the onslaught of LGBT indoctrination propaganda and pornography.
Thank you!

DeSantis also questioned Disney’s sincerity and whether the company was simply virtue-signalling since they did not work to stop the passing of the bill while it was in session.
“I also thought it was interesting,” DeSantis said. “I talked to the Speaker of the House yesterday afternoon. And he said Disney never called them while they were putting this through the House. They didn’t seem to have a problem with it when it was going through. If this was such an affront, why weren’t they speaking up at the outset? And yet they [weren’t].”
Calling out what he viewed as Disney’s hypocrisy on human rights issues, the governor said: “[Y]ou know what, if we … put in the bill that you were not allowed to have curriculum that discussed the oppression of the Uyghurs in China, Disney would have endorsed that in a second. And that’s the hypocrisy of this.”
He vowed to not bend to big corporations. “They do not control this state,” he stated.
“[W]e’re gonna make sure we’re fighting back when people are threatening our parents and threatening our kids.”
