DeSantis says he's 'immune' from Disney suit, asks judge to dismiss

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is asking a federal judge to dismiss the lawsuit Disney filed against him earlier this year, arguing that he and the secretary of Florida’s Department of Economic Opportunity are “immune” from the litigation.

“The Court lacks jurisdiction over at least two defendants—the Governor and the Secretary—who are also immune from suit. Although Disney has grabbed headlines by suing the Governor, Disney—like many litigants before it who have challenged Florida’s laws—has no basis for doing so,” DeSantis’s lawyers wrote in the motion to dismiss.

Didn't he start the whole thing? Lmao. This guy is insufferable. I am no fan of Disney, but I hope they tie him down in red tape forever.

This guy created fascist policy as political punishment against a private company for disagreeing with him. IANAL but it seems to me that immunity shouldn't apply to that.
