My piece in @TheAdvocateMag on the rise and fall of the House @ChrisMZiegler and @BridgetAZiegler is up. I worked on it for months (arguably 15 years). You know about the threesome, but read about how the power couple came into power. advocate.com/news/zieglers-…
@jacobogles @TheAdvocateMag @BridgetAZiegler Two errors in the first few paragraphs: 1) the state attorney has already announced there will be no charges filed; 2) Florida hasn’t been a “swing state” in a long time.
@jacobogles @TheAdvocateMag @BridgetAZiegler Thank you for this article. It constantly amazes me that people like the Zieglers want to make the rules but then don't follow them.
@jacobogles @TheAdvocateMag @BridgetAZiegler Thank you for researching and writing this. It neatly tied together bits of the story over years into a comprehensible narrative. It would be nice for my senator @JoeGruters to share his knowledge sometime, but I get that he has other priorities now.
@jacobogles @TheAdvocateMag @BridgetAZiegler Great piece. As someone who grew up in Sarasota in the 1980s-90s, the Zieglers and GOP have ruined a special place -- previously full of arts, LGBTQ+ friendly, with great public schools. I'd never go back thanks to them. Sarasota is a worse place due to the Zieglers.
@jacobogles @TheAdvocateMag @BridgetAZiegler Sarasota is an otherwise beautiful place. Thanks for this well-written piece. It may be the first article that hinted at a potential financial relationship between the couple and their “third.” How long have they been in Sarasota? And “the relationship” w/ #3 goes back 20 years?
