Today in Focus?

Never explored the issue, just pushed your opinion. Sad waste of our time. Way to back Disney, a 300billion dollar corporation’s right to speak freely and collect their tax breaks too. Why not ask the question of why Florida is moving away from the policies you say are correct? Ask those questions and don’t just tell us what you think. Your opinion has little value, your honesty reporting is what we expect. Today I was very disappointed.
