The shtup-positive Zieglers have caused a Pennsylvania chapter of moms for whatever to find another path in life.
But they’re still fucked.
*************
Scathing Online Schoolmarm can’t help wondering if the local press is having a little punny fun with the situation.
‘Some of the most ardent MAGA Republicans in the Florida GOP are turning on Ziegler.‘
LOL.
Italian officials have refused a request from the German State Antiquities Collection in Munich to return a Roman statue bought by Hitler in 1938… “This work was obtained fraudulently by the Nazis, and it’s part of our national heritage,” [Italy’s culture minister said].
Lurid finger-pointing from conservatives is often, as most folks have figured out by now, a form of psychological projection. It hasn’t even been two weeks since the release of a similar story outing a Philadelphia organizer for Moms of Liberty for his 2012 conviction of sexual abuse of a 14-year-old boy…
Time and again, we have seen this story play out: The self-appointed guardians of everyone else’s sexual morality often have rather exotic sex lives of their own. Just ask Jerry Falwell Jr.
… We can rule out sincere concerns about sexual violence as the reason the Zieglers are looking friendless this week. Republicans do not hold rape allegations, no matter how credible, against their leaders. After all, a court found Donald Trump responsible for sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll just this year, which comports with Trump’s previous bragging about how he likes to “grab them by the pussy.” Yet he is still sailing to the Republican nomination.

You remember Dirk.
There is … a workbook called I’m Dead, Now What? in which people set out their wishes to help relatives, friends and executors navigate funerals and finances after they’ve gone.
Doms for Liberty head Bridget Ziegler may be found here hyperventilating about sex toys.
Yes, the Zieglers are an excruciating body blow to our SOOOOOO sexually straight and upright Republican party.
Buuuuuut….
OK Republicans, help me understand here. Your party’s leader, Donald Trump, is a man who has been judicially adjudged as committing the rape of E. Jean Carroll. That’s not an allegation, it’s a judicial determination. He’s also been accused by 26 women of sexual assault, harassment and battery as well.
How is this qualitatively — or “morally,” if you prefer — any different than what Ziegler has allegedly done? Do your fellow party members feel a “heavy sense of betrayal” about Trump’s alleged actions? Are they in “an absolute tailspin” about those charges?
Ok smartass Daily Kos writer here goes: First Jesus forgave them within 12 to 26 minutes of her lesbian sex and his rape. Second who among us has not tormented gay people and at the same time herself indulged in the gayest sex? Third: Who has not offered hush money so his rape victim will shut up? Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
More on the gay threesome/Moms for Liberty couple.
Bridget Ziegler did nothing as [a] board chair during a public comment session back in March when a woman baselessly accused [a gay board member] of being a groomer who endangers children.
“I asked her to shut down the meeting and she refused,” [the slandered member] recalled on Friday. “So the only way I could protect our students and their families in our community from that ugly, homophobic rhetoric was to shut the meeting down myself by walking out.”
After a video of Edwards walking out appeared online, Christian Ziegler—the chair of the Florida GOP—joined his wife in a smear tag team. He tweeted that Edwards is “Tommy Drama,” adding, “If he can’t take public criticism, he shouldn’t be a public official.”

They’re going to … er … go down fighting.

“As leaders in the Florida GOP and Moms for Liberty, the Zieglers have made a habit out of attacking anything they perceive as going against ‘family values’ — be it reproductive rights or the existence of LGBTQ+ Floridians,” [the Florida Democratic Party Chair] said. “The level of hypocrisy in this situation is stunning.”
The head of Doms for Liberty has apparently disappointed her lesbian lover.
[Dom] and her husband had made plans with [the lover] to have [threeway] sex on Oct. 2, but, after [Dom] was unable to attend, [the lover] backed out, texting, “Sorry I was mostly in for her.”
Dom’s hub wouldn’t take no for an answer, though, and he reportedly just marched over to the lover’s house and raped her.
Background here.
Get your strap-on ready for the Perversion Wars!
… Youngstown State’s secretive, Trumpian trustees have named a prominent election denier president! Wow.
Rather unfair of the NYT to end its piece about the latest legal decision in favor of allowing employers, in very restricted circumstances, to ban the hijab in public work settings, with this dismissive statement from a lawyer for the hijabi who sued. And rather unwise tactically.
I mean, on the reasonable assumption that the NYT is appalled by burqa and hijab restrictions, it does its position no good by featuring the it’s all a tempest in an abaya line, which people are always doing. People are always telling us how risibly few female children and women wear the burqa, the abaya, the hijab, so why make a fuss?
Whereas numbers are actually going up in most places.
So to align yourself with people who dishonestly downplay a phenomenon which does in fact demoralize many citizens of secular countries (they tend to vote overwhelmingly in favor of restrictions) is to put yourself in a place which is itself subject to dismissal.
And as to the amusing pathetic crumbly fragility of a laicity which would fail to stand up to brave little Belgium’s little case — pshaw. Obviously it IS standing up to theocratic threats — by recognizing and managing them.
