It's not known if the woman in the video is the same person accusing the Christian Ziegler of sexual assault

Amid sexual assault allegations against Florida GOP Chair Christian Ziegler, a sex tape of his wife, Moms for Liberty co-founder Bridget Ziegler, with a woman has been recovered by the police, according to a non-profit Florida watchdog group.

The Florida Center for Government Accountability report clarified it is not known if the woman in the newly-surfaced video is the same person accusing the GOP chair of sexual assault.

The woman accusing Christian Ziegler told the police she’s had a longstanding sexual relationship with both Christian and Bridget Ziegler.

Bridget Ziegler is a member of Moms for Liberty, a conservative and known anti-LGBTQ nonprofit, and a member of the Sarasota School Board — whose members voted to call for her resignation earlier last week.

    I reckon most of them do believe their vitriol. Some number of them may be pure opportunists who seize on the culture war nonsense for personal gain but are not true believers; however, in my opinion the vast majority are not just putting on an act.

      It’s comforting to imagine that people with insane views don’t actually believe them because we’d like to think nobody could actually think like that. The problem is, they do. Lots of them. Just like “birds aren’t real,” it’s easy to imagine no one actually believes that obvious troll but many do! It’s the same tendency that leads us to picture Nazis as inhuman robots instead of actual people who believed that shit. The problem is that rosey view of humanity leaves us open for that shit to happen again.
