Moms for Liberty Co-Founder Faces Scandal and Split from Group

A chapter of Moms for Liberty has split from the national organization following sexual assault allegations against Christian Ziegler, the co-founder's husband and Florida GOP Chair. The Northumberland County chapter cited a misalignment of values and difficulty advocating for parental rights amidst the scandal. The Republican Party of Florida has called an emergency meeting to discuss Ziegler's future, considering options such as censure, revoking authority and pay, and potential expulsion. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has called for Ziegler's resignation. Ziegler denies the allegations but has admitted to having sex with the woman involved. Police have seized his electronic devices and executed warrants for his digital records.
