A leader of the Republican Party of Florida is calling for an emergency meeting to consider how to handle rape allegations that surfaced last week against the party's chairman, Christian Ziegler, who has so far refused to resign amid increasing pressure and a police investigation.
“It is with a heavy heart I write this email to you,” wrote Florida GOP Vice Chairman Evan Power in an email sent to party leaders Monday night. “Over the last few days we have seen the news and have received calls from the press about the situation with our Chairman.”
Gov. Ron DeSantis is among Republican leaders who have called on Ziegler to resign, a list that also includes Florida House Speaker Paul Renner and Senate President Kathleen Passidomo, each of whom said Ziegler should step aside.
“I don’t see how we can continue with that investigation ongoing, given the gravity of those situations. I think he should step aside,” DeSantis said last week after a debate with California Gov. Gavin Newsom. “I think he should tend to that.”
DeSantis is joined by both Florida Republican legislative leaders, an increasing number of rank-and-file members of the Legislature and former party officials.

Yeah that dude should definitely resign after reading the article - and add in his wife started Moms for Liberty holy shit. Let me get this straight - she started the group who wants to ban books because she deems them inappropriate for children, meanwhile she's scheduling threesomes with her husband...
Look idgaf what consenting adults do with other consenting adults but she's a hypocrite. For sure. He sounds like a rapist. Notice how the people crying the most about how "morals and values" are in danger are the ones doing exactly what they say they're against...what's the phrase? "A hit dog will holler..."
