    Michael Bloomberg's guest bloggers, Meghan Tribe and Brian Baxter, on
    whether Susie Wiles fears that Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch will
    allow Ron DeSantis to outflank from the right on the National Question
    by inviting the likes of Sara Blackwell onto their campaign stage to
    stump against Walt Disney Company: <URL:https://news.bloomberglaw.com/business-and-practice/disney-goes-after-desantis-with-omelveny-wilmerhale-veterans>
    | Schoenfeld, a New York-based partner at WilmerHale, has also
    | represented Disney in past matters.
    |
    | In 2016, he won a dismissal for Walt Disney Parks and Resorts when
    | the Middle District of Florida threw out two class actions related
    | to its use of third-party IT vendors who employed workers on H-1B
    | visas.
    |
    | Also representing Disney is Adam Colby Losey of Orlando-based Losey
    | PLLC.

    | "I'd give him the same advice I gave President Biden," McCarthy told
    | CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Thursday. "Why wouldn't you sit down and
    | negotiate and talk. If there's differences, you can always find ways
    | that you can solve this problem."
    |
    | "This is a big employer inside Florida," he added. "I think the
    | governor should sit down with them. I don't think the idea of
    | building a prison next to a place that you bring your family is the
    | best idea. I think it'd be much better if you sat down and solved
    | the problems."

    "McCarthy wants DeSantis to drop his fight with Disney. Most
    Americans and the vast majority of Republicans are with DeSantis.
    McCarthy is doing this because DeSantis is making Trump look weak,
    and McCarthy is Trump's guy. It's the establishment protecting the establishment. https://t.co/0RoqQ9hDyy" - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:https://twitter.com/emeriticus/status/1651948008538349569>
