The co-founder of a homophobic group that helped architect Florida’s disgusting “Don’t Say Gay” legislation is wrapped up in a criminal case involving sexual misconduct.
We are… gagged! (Not really, this kind of stuff happens all the time.)
Christian Ziegler, the head of Florida’s Republican Party and husband of Moms for Liberty co-founder Bridget Ziegler, is under investigation for alleged sexual battery.
In a police report, a woman accuses Ziegler of “rape.” The woman says she was involved in a longstanding three-way relationship with the couple.
She says Christian Ziegler also secretly recorded sexual encounters between the couple and her.
The Ziegler’s are rising stars in MAGA politics, thinly disguising homophobia as a fight for “parental rights.” Moms for Liberty is one of the biggest groups pushing for schools to ban books dealing with race, gender identity and sexual orientation.
It would be a shame if kids read books about families with two moms or two dads. Everybody knows the ideal family includes mom, dad and their third!
Whoops!
hahahaha you all did this to yourselves. literally no one else was involved in your sex crimes

You don’t get to make trans and homophobic rules for everyone else’s kids while you go muff diving, which no one cares if you do anyway. It’s the blatant hypocrisy for me.

Unsurprisingly, Ron “Don’t Say Gay” DeSantis is tight with the Zieglers.
The anti-gay governor and failing presidential candidate personally endorsed Bridget for her seat on the Sarasota School Board, and appointed her to Disney’s puppet board.
Bridget means business: she turned Moms for Liberty into a powerhouse political organization, and trains homophobes to run for school boards all over the country.
She’s the education director of a conservative nonprofit, the Leadership Institute.
As part of the Sarasota School Board, Bridget is doing all she can to terrorize LGBTQ+ students in the district: outlaw classroom discussions of gay issues; ban books; tear down fliers promoting inclusive events.
Earlier this year, a gay school board member walked out of a meeting after being inundated with anti-LGBTQ+ taunts.
Bridget, as chairwoman, didn’t shut down the hate speech.
Shocking! We’d expect nothing less from a woman who photographed herself wearing a transphobic t-shirt that says “real women aren’t men.”
“Bridget Ziegler, we should have her in every county in Florida,” DeSantis said in one speech.
Even though Bridget is confined to Sarasota, her influence extends far beyond Western Florida. Moms for Liberty torments queer students on a national level.
To protest the group’s hatred, Seattle middle school students recently staged a rally denouncing Mom for Liberty’s anti-gay agenda.
Fortunately, the organization’s indoctrination efforts aren’t effective everywhere in the country.
But they are effective in Florida, where the Ziegler’s are highly influential. As chairman of the Florida Republican Party, Christian Ziegler has called parents of LGBTQ+ children “perverted” and told them to leave the state.
Talk about projecting! While raising gay kids isn’t perverted, do you know what is?
Sexually assaulting your side piece.

Police have reportedly seized Christian’s cell phone and are conducting a full forensic investigation. The police report was filed October 2.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer couple, right?

POLITICO
These people are always SHOCKED!
(excerpt)
MIAMI — The Sarasota Police Department is investigating Florida Republican Party Chair Christian Ziegler, whose wife co-founded the conservative parents group Moms for Liberty, following allegations of sexual assault.
According to a heavily redacted police report obtained by POLITICO through a public records request, the alleged incident took place on Oct. 2 at a home in Sarasota and the victim filed a complaint two days later. The documents omit details about the victim’s statement to authorities but include the words “rape” and “sexually battered.”
SHOCKED!!!!
News of the alleged incident broke just hours before DeSantis was set to appear in a highly advertised debate on Fox News against Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California, who has criticized DeSantis for his policies on schools.
The Republican Party of Sarasota County said in a statement that it was “shocked and disappointed” about the reports regarding the Zieglers.
“We are shocked and disappointed to hear of the reports concerning Republican Party of Florida Chair and Sarasota County State Committeeman Christian Ziegler, and his wife, Sarasota County School Board Member Bridget Ziegler,” said the group’s chairman, Jack Brill. “The Republican Party takes all such allegations of potential criminal conduct very seriously and will fully cooperate with investigators.”

You ARE a republican troll knockoff absies. You force your ideology on the public like Anita Bryant on steroids. Force shove cram, it’s how you roll. Complete with rage. You make R trolls look like muthah Teresa. It’s good there are laws coming on board to keep you in your play pen.
Newsom is hot. And smart. But low iq DeSantis isn’t really much of a high bar to leap over, but l loved the takedown regardless. More public executions would be cool. We could start with Abs tho he’s gotten his share of lashings lately, twerpette that he is.

Diplomat, I abhor Ron DeFascist–detest him and his policies–but he isn’t low-IQ. He’s many things, including whiny, anti-LGBTQ and racist, sexist, tiresome, lacking in charisma, and full of misplaced grievance and rage, but he isn’t dumb.

Hello,
Why????
I keep asking myself this question even though I have encountered such horrible fakes all my life. I even had such for a grandmother, mother, and at least one uncle who all were so holy that they could not tolerate anyone whom they thought was less so. Sex was one of the main things that these horrible folks were so intolerant of others. Not homosexuality but unmarried people, or married people engaging in sex with someone that God had not joined in perfect unions. Yet they were very much into fogetting their marriage vows and etc..
My2CentsWorth
If it is proven that the couple who have dedicated their lives to saving the world from bad books and ungodly sex it will not have any impact on the sheep who are been led. They will gladly continue to follow others who may, or may not, be better than these two.
okiloki
The GOP are so forgiving of the sexual improprieties and depravities of their own members. They are always leading witch-hunts against others but shrug when their own leaders are found to be engaging in the very things (and worse) they are accusing other groups of engaging in.

A lot of the posters here quickly forget Pete Buttigieg’s protege arrested for pedophilia. Pepperidge Farms doesn’t forget, though.
Kangol2
DeTrans, you can try to push fringe stories but the reality is, these Moms4Liberty fanatics are out there championing family values and attacking LGBTQ people and pushing for book bans, etc., but as this case shows, these same people are complete fakes and more depraved than anyone they’ve denounced and targeted. They should clean their own house and get psychological help PRONTO–and the hubby who committed the assault should serve some prison time if found guilty–before lashing out and trying to destroy the lives of everyone else!
decrans
Not a fringe story. Read the news and look informed. Google Mayor Patrick Wojahn. Oh, look. An article from CNN. Read the news, Kangol. You will look like less of a dumbass.
decrans
Mayor Patrick Wojahn came up through the same Democratic mayoral circles as Buttigieg. Supported by the same LGBTQ Victory Fund backers. Should they also clean house? If it’s right for one, it’s right for the other. Google Images show him hugging Buttigieg (three times), Pelosi and Biden. I’m just using y’all’s logic! The Democratic party propped up gay pedophiles, too, honeybun. Google Images. Sit down, Kangol.
decrans
And I agree with you on crimes committed. However, it’s also true that a gay Democratic mayor diddled little boys. He won plaudits from national LGBTQ organizations until he was caught diddling kids. Not a fringe theory. His ass is in prison right this minute, Kangol. It ain’t Pizzagate, baby boy.
decrans
Wowie, wow, wow. The article that provided the Buttigieg/Wojahn connection? A glowing write-up in The Washington Blade, you know, that fringe gay publication that pushes far-right propaganda. ‘Pete Buttigieg has mentored Patrick Wojahn over the years’ reads the subhed. Washington Blade…so fringe right-wing!
