    Bridget, you deserve to be fired from your job because you are terrible at your job, not because you had sex with a woman,

    I love this so hard. Epic burn.

    It’s not gay if it’s in a threeway!

    Anyways, I don’t care what shenanigans this lady gets up to in private, but can she now stop using hatred as a stepladder for her shitty political career?

        It’s like a cheat code for winning over stupid people. Us social apes instinctually band together against things we feel threaten us. These douchebags just keep crying wolf, then bear, then cougar, then three headed rattlesnake, and the list goes on, and ride that fear to further their careers. A disappointingly large portion of the population never seems to notice how so many of these issues are entirely fictional.

      Yeah I feel weird about this one. She’s a self-hating hypocrite and she’s toxic, but attacking her sexuality is extremely not something I’m comfortable with. There is, on the other hand, an allegation that she seuxally assaulted someone, so I guess it makes sense that they’re looking for this stuff.

      But maybe stop telling the press about it? Do your investigation in private and get it done.

        It’s not (or shouldn’t be) about attacking her sexuality but highlighting the hypocrisy of her position. Sex sells but in principle it’s the same as if she started a group devoted to outlawing tiktok as immoral and then had her tiktok account exposed

        She sure is comfortable attacking anyone else’s so why is she off-limits now?

          Principle

          If you say you’re against punching people in the face you can’t punch someone to stop them

          I guess, who knows

            What? If there’s someone walking around punching a bunch of people in the face and I’m very anti-face-punching, 100% I’m going to go against my principles of not punching the one time to punch that person in the face. They should then, hopefully, understand what their actions were doing to those around them and develop a sense of empathy.

            I feel this is as justified as outing Republican politicians who have spent their days in congress making anti-LGBT+ legislation and spending their evenings with rentboys.

        Pointing out her hypocrisy and making her feel bad about being a judgemental cunt is not attacking her sexuality. It’s attacking the front she’s trying to sell, don’t confuse these two.

            I don’t doubt there are people upset that she had sex with a woman on camera, but those people are the ones who are fans of her political PTO bs. Personally I get as many LOLs no matter who she filmed herself fucking because the moral judgement I’m making is about her ability to accurately portray her ‘beliefs’ in her actions.

        I thought the allegation involved her husband assaulting the woman they had threesomes with. However, I haven’t made any special effort to keep track of this situation, so I could be missing something.

    The embedded video of Zander Moricz is so good! Click the link and go watch it. If the first line doesn’t sell you, nothing will:

    “Bridget, our first interaction was when you retweeted a hate article about me from The Nationalist while I was a Sarasota County School student.”

    Hell of a way to open a comment!

    Why is police looking into this though?

    Ah… It’s in the article. They found it in her husband’s phone as he’s being investigated for rape

    In late November, a woman alleged that Christian Ziegler went to her apartment and raped her after his wife bowed out of a scheduled get-together.

      I don’t like stereotyping, but they’re consistently like… not only projection but worse.

      And they say the same about us in r/conservative… Holy hell.

    Did she commit a crime that’s her private life is being exposed? I know her husband is a rapist, but why are these videos being released?

    Yes, she’s a hypocrite, but what about her privacy? Her rights? That’s YOUR privacy and YOUR rights too.
