Another ‘issue’ for Disney to deal with in 2024…

The Walt Disney Company board wants to hide key financial data from the public, particularly as it relates to their funding of the transgender movement and donations to political candidates, documents reviewed by the Daily Caller reveal.

The 2024 proxy vote ballot for Disney’s annual shareholder meeting, scheduled for April 2, reveals the board doesn’t want the public, or even their own shareholders, to know how much Disney spends on “gender transition compensation and benefits” for its staff. Despite the board’s suggested vote to shareholders, the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) and National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) are urging the company to release the data.

As if the last couple of years hasn’t been bad enough with the losses in Florida, the Kennedy fiasco(s), their stock is down, and Trian Partners is trying to get people on the board, HERE, to try to straighten out the company to the point it’s actually making money again…

And the cost just keeps going up, and up, and up! My cousins have been taking grandkids to Disney for years, but have decided to quit doing that due to costs, ending a 30 year tradition. I feel for the kids, but when you’re looking at $6000+ for them and five kids for four days, I don’t blame them at all.

And honestly, Disney’s entertainment is in the tank, too!

Sigh…

I have it around here somewhere…

Many leftists have made their allegiances clear in the war between Hamas and Israel. This includes members of the mainstream media who have sought to equivocate between Islamic terrorists and the Jewish state — and sometimes report outright lies.

One journalist has taken his bias toward Hamas to an extreme, and it won’t shock you when you find out what outlet he works for.

Especially since this is NOT the first one that has been ‘outed’ so to speak.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, since this has been going on for a while. Fifth and Sixth Columns go back to the Spanish Civil War in the mid-1930s.

And usually the ‘media’ was involved in one way or the other, but I don’t think it’s been as blatant as we’ve seen it in the last ten years or so.

What say you?

Every time I turn around…

I truly wasn’t aware of this one, but I don’t play in the market, so I never thought about it.

A long-running battle over the Securities and Exchange Commission’s policy of muzzling defendants in enforcement cases is gaining new momentum in the courts, thanks to one of the biggest critics of federal regulatory power.

The New Civil Liberties Alliance, a conservative legal group that has been at the forefront in the clash over regulatory reach, is leading a pair of long-shot challenges looking to knock down the SEC’s half-century-old policy of barring most defendants who settle with the agency from speaking out against the charges.

Kinda sounds like a violation of the 1st Amendment to me, but what do I know?

I always ‘thought’ that once the trials/etc. were over, people were free to speak.

I know there is an ongoing move afoot to silence anyone who doesn’t toe the line on the left’s agenda/utopian dreams as spewed by the MSM, but that is one of the benefits of the Intarwebz, there are plenty of choices out there to listen to.

The problem I see, is that few actually DO any real research, tending to go with whatever the sound bite from whatever side they believe is the only answer. And people are no longer willing or able to actually engage in dialog where both sides get their chance to speak.

That really bothers me, because I’ve always believed in/been willing to exchange ideas freely without being ‘forced’ to accept things I do not believe in.

Before I get to the post, we got through the BBQ okay, with 33 teams competing! Good food was enjoyed by all, and congrats to the winners! And my butt is draggin…

Now the news- Denver v. illegals…

As Denver cuts funding for American citizens’ jobs and programs to keep supporting illegal aliens who shouldn’t be in the country at all, the city’s Democrat mayor is whining about Congressional Republicans.

PJ Media’s Rick Moran reported that Denver was among the cities cutting costs to deal with the flood of illegal immigrants who continue to invade this country with minimal to no vetting under Joe Biden. The Epoch Times also noted that Democrat Denver Mayor Mike Johnston blames Republicans in Congress for the cutbacks, since GOP congressmen (at least temporarily) killed the disastrous border deal. In other words, Johnston refuses to admit that his city is wrongly welcoming and prioritizing illegals with taxpayer money; instead, he demands more taxpayer money to cover for his Party’s financial foolishness.

Sooooo, just like NYC, Chicago, and California, they are cutting services to actual CITIZENS to pay for the illegals in their ‘sanctuary city’. Meanwhile, it’s all the Pub’s fault…

Talk about not washing worth .02 cents…

And I wonder how many of them will vote in 24 for the dems so they can keep sucking at the US tit and sending most of the money they get back to their home countries?
