So many corporations want to appease the left with their woke crap. Take for instance the Tampa Bay Rays (who used to be the Devil Rays), posting an anti-Second Amendment tweet. Well, looks like they cost themselves a $35 stadium deal. Ron DeSantis doesn’t fuck around with woke corporations, just ask Disney.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) reportedly plans to veto a bill earmarking $35 million for a Tampa Bay Rays facility days after the team went on an anti-gun tirade on social media alongside the New York Yankees.
The decision, first reported by OutKick, would have the governor nixing “$35 million legislation for a Pasco County facility that’s earmarked for the Tampa Bay Rays’ spring training,” according to the outlet, which asserted that the move is in response to the Tampa Bay Rays’ recent display of anti-Second Amendment virtue-signaling on social media.
Last week, on May 26, the Tampa Bay Rays released a statement in response to the tragic shooting in Uvalde proceeded by an anti-gun blitz on Twitter.
