GET ME REWRITE: Fired Florida GOP Chair Christian Ziegler and his Moms for Liberty founder wife like to do the hanky-panky

 

Headline:  New York Times, 1/8/2024

The investigation also led to calls for Ms. Ziegler, an elected member of the Sarasota County School Board, to step down over perceived hypocrisy between her private life and public persona. The board itself called for Ms. Ziegler to resign last month, saying that the drama engulfing her and her husband had become too much of a distraction. Ms. Ziegler was the only member to vote against the nonbinding resolution; she has remained on the board. 

Ms. Ziegler, 41, is a conservative activist who has promoted anti-L.G.B.T.Q. policies in schools and co-founded the right-wing group Moms for Liberty. She confirmed to the police that she had taken part in the prior sexual encounter with the woman, according to the affidavit.

According to Merriam-Webster, the first-known use of 'hanky-panky' occurred in 1841.

Other coinages from the same year include:

1. armlock
2. daisy chain
3. free-ranging
4. hard core
5. philanderer
6. wastrel
