The Circus heads to Florida as Governor Ron DeSantis enacts contentious legislation surrounding education, gender issues, and abortion. John Heilemann, Alex Wagner, Mark McKinnon, and Jennifer Palmieri delve into how Florida has turned into a key front in the cultural conflict in America. They examine the conservative push to ban math textbooks over “prohibited topics,” the repercussions of the infamous “Don’t Say Gay” law, and the intensifying clash between Disney and state Republicans.
