Award-winning blogger Javier Manjarres of The Shark Tank Blog in Florida is considering a run for Congress in Florida’s 22nd congressional district.

Manjarres won the CPAC Blogger of the Year Award in 2011.

Having already left a significant footprint in United States and Florida politics since he first arrived onto the national political stage in 2010, award winning author and prominent political writer Javier Manjarres, has decided to explore a congressional run for office.

Manjarres, who is a seasoned political operative and no stranger to the media spotlight, is as versed as anyone to take on hostile press personalities and challenge any seasoned and polished politician.

“After speaking with my trusted colleagues, friends and family about future career opportunities, I have decided to explore the possibility of running for the U.S. Congress in Florida’s 22nd congressional district.

It was clear that after the historic 2016 elections, Americans rejected the agenda and policies of the outgoing Obama Administration that they believe were threatening the American way of life.

Allen West’s former district, so I presume he’d try to unseat a Rat (Murphy?).

BREAKING NEWS — Shark Tank Blogger Javier Manjarres Charged With Attempted Murder!

http://www.gossipextra.com/category/broward

March 28, 2016

Javier Manjarres, 43, who runs a boutique blog from his home in Pompano Beach for about 30,000 mostly conservative Republican readers nationally, was arrested Saturday after he fired a gun three times at his sister’s boyfriend as he tried to escape an enraged Manjarres in a pickup truck.

Manjarres is a well-known figure in political circles.

As a follower of former U.S. Congressman Allen West, Manjarres founded shark-tank.com in the mid-2000s to prop up Tea Party candidates and destroy moderate Republicans.

And this weekend’s incident was not Manjarres’ first dance with the law.

Manjarres was sentenced to two years probation in 1995 after he crashed through the front door of a Boca Raton apartment then beat his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend.

Prosecutors drop attempted murder charge against Shark Tank blogger

April 18, 2016

Palm Beach County prosecutors have dropped charges of attempted murder and burglary with battery against conservative South Florida blogger Javier Manjarres after Manjarres’ accuser wouldn’t cooperate.

Pompano Beach resident Manjarres, 43, publishes the Shark Tank blog and was named blogger of the year in 2011 at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C.

Boca Raton police found probable cause to charge him after Manjarres’ sister’s boyfriend, Jason Holowinski, told police that Manjarres had punched him in the face and head four or five times and fired three gunshots at Holowinski’s pickup truck in a parking lot behind a shopping center on West Palmetto Park Road on March 25.

Police arrested Manjarres on March 26.

Manjarres’ attorney, Bill Cone, contended there were inconsistencies in Holowinski’s account that would have made prosecution difficult.

Palm Beach County Assistant State Attorney Christy Rogers signed a “No File” notice for the case on Monday.

“Victim failed to cooperate by refusing to identify to view a lineup,” the document says.
