Ziegler’s accusation comes after he was accused of rape in a previous threesome involving his wife Bridget Ziegler and a woman with whom he had previously been involved.

Michael Thompson, Chairman of the Lee County Republican Executive Committee, tweeted: “Ziegler trying to defend himself on a soapbox is not working.”

In a motion of censure, Ziegler was accused of “conduct that renders him ineligible to continue as Chairman of the Republican Party of Florida.”

Thompson announced on X a few minutes later, on Sunday: “Motion suspending Zieglers’ authority passes.”

1776 Coalition Sponsored Don’t let Senate Republicans kill the Trump Agenda Why do Senate Republicans make the rest of the GOP worry every time Congress has a fight over major legislation? They rarely seem to remember that they were elected to protect individual rights, cut spending and limit government overreach. Fortunately, we have our Top Defenders of Liberty leading the way, like: Rand Paul, Mike Lee, and Ron Johnson. Unfortunately, there’s still many others in the U.S. Senate who earned a low score in our Liberty Index, and they need to hear from you. Will you join our efforts to ensure the U.S. Senate passes Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” without compromises or interference from Senate RINOS?

Ziegler’s attorney and Ziegler did not respond immediately to BI’s Sunday request for comments. Sarasota Police Department continues to investigate the allegation and Ziegler is not charged with any crime.

After a threesome with the Zieglers, and an unnamed female, the trio set up a second date, but when the woman found out Bridget Ziegler was unable to attend, she canceled, BI reported. The Washington Post reported that the woman told Sarasota Police Department Christian Ziegler assaulted her at her apartment. Ziegler denies the allegation, saying that the encounter was consensual.

Bridget Ziegler was also under pressure to resign as a member of the Sarasota County Board of Education, but she refused to do so. She no longer works for Moms for Liberty but the “parental right” group that she co-founded, which she founded, has vocally opposed allowing books or conversations in schools to discuss gender, sexuality or LGBTQ issues.

The Southern Poverty Law Center considers Moms for Liberty an extremist group. They claim that the group “spreads hateful imagery and racial rhetoric against the LGBTQ Community.”
