ANOTHER of these self-righteous "christian" nationalist who believe in themselves so much ( narcissism ) that they believe they can tell us how we should live our lives and to make sure we do they legislate it too. Must be when you belong to the political party whose leader feels it is OK to "grab a woman by their pussy" AND be a pedophile it is OK for you to be a sexual abuser and predator too.

A judge issued a protective order against a Republican congressman from Florida on Tuesday, forbidding him to contact a former girlfriend who in court proceedings said he had threatened her with revenge porn after she broke up with him.
The lawmaker, Representative Cory Mills, was also ordered to refrain from making any references on social media to his ex-girlfriend, Lindsey Langston, the reigning Miss United States, who had ended their relationship this year after Mr. Mills was linked to an assault investigation in Washington, D.C., involving another woman.
Mr. Mills, 45, a staunch ally of President Trump who represents a district northeast of Orlando, has not been charged with a crime in connection with either episode. The Hill reported in August that the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington had closed its investigation of Mr. Mills.
In a 14-page order, Judge Fred Koberlein Jr. of Florida’s Third Judicial Circuit wrote that Ms. Langston had “reasonable cause to believe she is in imminent danger of becoming the victim of another act of dating violence without an injunction being entered.”
Mr. Mills’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Tuesday. Neither did his lawyer.
A lawyer for Ms. Langston said that she and her client would not comment on the order until Wednesday.
Mr. Mills is barred from being within 500 feet of Ms. Langston under the order, which included details about their tumultuous breakup.
It said that the two began dating in November 2021 when Ms. Langston was 22 and single and Mr. Mills was 41 and living apart from his spouse.
In February, Ms. Langston learned through news media reports that Mr. Mills was being investigated in connection with a report of an assault on a woman at his residence in Washington, the order said.
In seeking the order, Ms. Langston said that Mr. Mills had misled her about his relationship with the other woman, who in the days after the February episode denied that there had been a physical altercation.
At that point, Ms. Langston decided to end her relationship with Mr. Mills, according to the order, which stated that Ms. Langston had received a series of harassing messages in May and June from Mr. Mills.
In those messages, Mr. Mills had threatened to send sexually explicit videos of her to any men she might date, the order said. It noted that as Miss United States, Ms. Langston must observe a morality clause.
Mr. Mills had testified that he had never intended to send intimate images of Ms. Langston to other people and that he no longer possessed them.
“The court, considering the totality of the testimony and circumstances, does not find the respondent’s testimony concerning the intimate videos to be truthful,” Judge Koberlein wrote.

Judge grants ex-girlfriend restraining order against Rep. Cory Mills
A circuit court judge on Tuesday ordered Central Florida Congressman Cory Mills not to come within 500 feet of his ex-girlfriend and said in his ruling that the reigning Miss United States is “a victim of dating violence.”
Lindsey Langston — who also is a state GOP committee woman — had sought a restraining order against the 45-year-old Republican congressman, whose district includes Seminole County.
The 26-year-old Columbia County resident accused Mills of threatening to release nude images of her and physically harm her future boyfriends after she ended their relationship.
Mills had vehemently denied Langston’s allegations, but Circuit Judge Fred Koberlein Jr. said he found her testimony believable while Mills’ was untruthful.
The judge said Mills’ conduct had caused Langston “emotional distress” and forced her to “alter her daily routine out of fear, impairing her ability to perform her job duties and to live a normal life.”
The couple started dating in November 2021, when she was 22 years old and Mills was 41, married and the father of a young child. However, he had been living separately from his wife since 2019.
Koberlein prohibited Mills to have any contact with Langston. And in a special provision written into the order, Mills cannot refer to her on social media — including on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or TikTok.
The restraining order is in effect until Jan. 1. Mills and his office did not respond to requests for comment.
Koberlein also said in his ruling that he found Mills’ testimony about his relationship with Langston “difficult to comprehend and for the most part incomprehensible.”
The ruling came after two days of testimony at a small historic courthouse in Lake City, a small North Florida town where Langston lives.
First elected in 2022 and winning re-election last year, Mills has been a strong supporter of President Donald Trump. His district also includes portions of Volusia County.
In December 2024, Langston became suspicious of Mills’ “faithfulness and loyalty to their relationship” when she discovered he was spending time in Washington D.C. with Sarah Raviani, identified as “Girlfriend 2” in court documents.
In February 2025, Mills was involved in a domestic dispute with Raviani, “which involved law enforcement at his Washington D.C. residence,” according to court documents. Langston said she learned of the incident through news reports.
Langston then moved out of Mills’ Volusia County home and ended their relationship.
But Mills “had a difficult time explaining when the relationship with (Langston) terminated” during his testimony, Koberlein said in his ruling, noting the congressman claimed at times it was “unwinding” but also said the two were trying to reconcile.
Though Raviani was living with him in Washington D.C., Mills continued to call and text Langston nearly a dozen times through June, causing her “substantial emotional distress.” She accused the congressman of ignoring her repeated requests and then pleas for him to leave her alone.
In one text message, Mills wrote: “May want to tell every guy you date that if we run into each other at any point. Strap up cowboy.”
Other messages referenced videos, which Langston testified were sexual in nature. In one message Mills wrote: “I can send him a few videos of you as well. Oh, I still have them.”
Mills said in court he had deleted any intimate videos he had of Langston, and he wouldn’t have been able to access them because his phone had been damaged. The videos he referred to were not sexual in nature, he testified. One referred to a social media post in which Langston talked about falling in love with another man, he said.
Mills also denied threatening Langston’s future love interests.
The judge noted in his ruling that after Langston filed a petition for the restraining order, Mills contacted her using the other girlfriend’s phone, contacted her family members and “caused a public employee under his direct supervision” to contact her, too.
The judge wrote that Langston “does have a reasonable cause to believe she is in imminent danger of becoming the victim of another act of dating violence without an injunction being entered.”
Dating violence can mean stalking, according to Florida law.
The restraining order is the latest of Mills’ controversies.
The House Ethics Committee is currently scrutinizing Mills’ business dealings and financial disclosure statements, incuding whether the congressman benefited from federal contracts while serving in elected office.
Mills, an Army veteran with an estimated net worth of about $24 million, is the co-founder of several defense contracting and security companies.
