It’s pretty much a given that if Republicans are accusing anyone of anything, they are doing that thing themselves, but I have to admit that this particular example amazed me nonetheless:
The far-right Christian nationalist organization Moms for Liberty issued, then later deleted, a statement declaring support for its co-founder after her husband, the chairman of the Florida Republican Party, was accused of sexual battery by a woman who allegedly has had a consensual “three-way sexual relationship” with the married couple.
“The Sarasota Police Department is investigating a sexual battery allegation against Florida GOP Chair Christian Ziegler,” The Sarasota Herald-Tribune reports. Bridget Ziegler, the Moms for Liberty co-founder and the spouse of Christian Ziegler, “has become a star within the MAGA movement,” the FLCGA notes.
“Christian Ziegler is also alleged to have secretly videotaped the sexual encounters between the couple and the woman, sources said,” the FLCGA added. Moms for Liberty was named an anti-government extremist group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
I won’t comment on the likelihood that these people did exactly as it is alleged, except to point out that there is a pattern of such allegations against Republicans turning out to be true. Just pointing that out. They are of course, innocent until proven GUILTY GUILTY GUILTY!
Just an observation, but if you’re going to run an organization dedicated to persecuting gay people, but you want to engage in gay sex yourself, you probably oughtn’t to preserve your encounters on tape. Just saying.
Yet another piece of evidence that when they tell you they are for liberty, they are really saying they are “for liberty for me but not for thee”.
This is yet another of those stories that one would never hear the end of if the actors involved were Democrats, but it’ll fade away in no time, if it gets much attention from the media at all. I mean, poor George Santos had to lie with every breath he took, and commit crimes on a daily basis before he could grab their attention. Also, yet another one of those stories which, were it in a piece of fiction, would be criticized as far too improbable.
