The Florida GOP is embroiled in a crisis as Christian Ziegler, the party chair, faces calls to resign amid rape allegations. Matt Gaetz has called for his resignation, and Ziegler's wife, Bridget, a co-founder of Moms for Liberty, is also under pressure to step aside. The party has censured Ziegler, stripping him of power, and there are accusations of sexual assault, causing a rift within the Republican Party. The situation has led to a breakdown in the party's grassroots organization, with growing turmoil and division.
