Florida Governor Ron DeSantis warned people to "buckle up" as he signed a bill giving the state control over Disney's sprawling Orlando theme parks. The bill strips power uniquely held by Disney for over 50 years and enables more oversight by Mr DeSantis' Republican-led legislature. The move is seen as retaliation after Disney opposed state laws curtailing gender and sexuality education. (Picture: Walt Disney World Resort Reopening. Picture Credit: Getty Images)
