Barracuda Post on State Rep's Flores and Fresen. By Geniusofdespair

I was introduced to the Barracuda Post this weekend. They have a 2 part article on conflicted State Reps: Anitere Flores and Erik Fresen. About Anitere Flores they say:
She seemed to be the perfect candidate to join Jeb’s corrupt tribal Miami political machine. She was shallow, perky, ambitious, gullible and easy to manipulate. Little did they know that she was also an opportunistic monster in her own right.

The Barracuda Post delves into Erik Fresen's conflicts and they have a very scary photo of him (warning, cover the eyes of your children):

Earlier this year, Rep. Erik Fresen, the chair of the Republican Party of Miami-Dade, included a provision in a bill which would prohibit cities and counties from imposing stricter building and zoning rules on charter schools than it does on traditional public schools. Then he voted for the broad charter schools reform bill in a Florida House committee. In this seemingly routine legislative maneuver, a conflict is not readily apparent. OR IS IT?

Let’s review the background. Legislators are required to disclose, within 15 days, any votes that could result in a “special private gain or loss” for themselves or their relatives. Fresen’s brother-in-law, Fernando Zulueta, runs Academica, the for-profit company that manages charter schools such as the Doral Academy, which will be affiliated with Doral College, the institution over which State Senator Anitere Flores will preside. Academica also employs Fresen’s sister, Maggie. Not reason enough for Fresen to recuse himself from voting?

I don't know who writes the Barracuda, but I like what I read this weekend. They also have an article on the drug trafficking in the Rubio family and other Rubio nuggets:

Rubio is a fraud with serious character flaws, and his family is like any other family of immigrants in America with the good, the bad and the ugly. There is nothing outrageously noble about it except in the minds of Sean Hannity, his useful idiots and tea party fanatics.

GOLLY WOW, Genius, I hope you read the piece posted by the Barracuda Post, disclosing that Jeb called Marquito a STUD, on Fox News. I'm sure when I told you about Jeb's weaknesses, you didn't believe me. I don't lie... Miami is being manipulated by the "birdcage cabal"...LOL

Eric Fressen is the most ethically-challenged politicians in a county where that bar is pretty darn high. I hope you all help the Coral Gables residents fighting against yet another of Fressen's family's mammoth schools targeting a residential neighborhood.

As a constituent in the district of Fresen, and prior to Marco Rubio, both of them are anything but interested in helping, protecting the constituent, Marco rubio has a chip on his shoulder but the chip is hurting all of us, he screwed before and will do so again, he is a hypocrite I don't know anything about his fam. but I can assure you I will not vote for him not even as catcher, ever again. and this applies to Fresen as well, he has yet to answer one of my e-mails, what can you expect from Marco Rubio he is nothing but a vote hunter, and does what ever it takes, after seeing his action w/Jeb bush, which is another one I would never vote for again. Big mistake voting for him. Fresen, well what can
