ABS-CBN’s decision to cast DDS Senator Robinhood in one of its teleseryes is, in my view, one of the most misguided moves the company has made. Because of this, I’ve decided not to watch any ABS-CBN programs unless and until that decision is reversed.
Ayon sa records na isinumite ngayon ng Anti-Money Laundering Council sa House Committee on Justice, may 630 covered transactions at 33 suspicious transaction reports na konektado sa Bise Presidente Sara Duterte-Carpio at sa kanyang asawa na si Atty. Manases Carpio.
Umaabot sa ₱6.77 bilyon ang total amount involved. Sa halagang ito, mahigit ₱4.42 bilyon ang aktwal na pumasok o naging inflow sa kanilang personal accounts.
Numbers don’t lie. Dapat ipaliwanag ito sa taumbayan.
It is atrocious that the government is more concerned about losing revenues than helping the very citizenry they are supposed to serve.
That message simply says "kami mawawalan."
So dapat talaga, kami mahirapan para sa inyo?
Mga inutil.
Oo. Sinabi ko.
BAWAL BASTOS! Hindi natin ito palalagpasin. Kailangan nating panagutin. Walang puwang sa lipunang naghahangad ng tunay na pagbabago ang ganitong kaisipan at pag-uugali. Patuloy na kumilos, mag-organisa upang wakasan ang lahat ng anyo ng seksismo at karahasan laban sa kababaihan!
TOPACIO ATTACKS SARAH ELAGO
DDS lawyer Ferdinand Topacio degrades men in general and Cong. Sarah Elago with sexist remarks in the course of justifying Bong Suntay’s imagination and desire:
“Lalake yan eh! Wag na tayo mag plastikan. Ang mga lalake, nagnanasa talaga yan. We are
If you check the marketing collaterals of the Department Of Tourism, you kind of get why our tourism numbers have declined.
Sec. Christina Frasco has more exposures and features than all of our country’s attractions combined.
Ano bibisatahin kay Frasco as an attraction? Yung high cheekbones niya? Yung hugis-bigas na mukha? O yung laging exposed niyang clavicle?
Chiz Escudero’s SOCE was prepared by George Garcia, his lawyer then.
George Garcia is the chair of the COMELEC.
His wife Mavic currently works as the Deputy Secretary for Legislation of the Senate under Chiz.
The COMELEC finds no wrongdoing by Chiz.
Lemme act surprised 🖕
🚨FAKE NEWS ALERT🚨
Eto na mga resibo!
Kahapon, pinapakalat ng mga DDS na may project daw si Senator Risa Hontiveros na ghost project or unfinished sa Albay.
Eh yung pinost nila, kaka-award lang this September 24, 2025!
So siempre wala pa nakatayo duon haha!
Ang mas malala, sa photo na pinapakalat nila may kasamang mga parang unfinished or nakatiwangwang na structures pero hindi naman related sa actual project na nasa tarpaulin – kinuha lang nila from somewhere or yung mga katabing lupa or ibang projects sa Albay.
Lies travel faster than the truth talaga kasi naka isang buong araw na yung fake news.

THE ULTIMATE CALL FROM FORMER CHIEF JUSTICE REYNATO PUNO
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
PHILIPPINE CONSTITUTION ASSOCIATION (PhilConsa)
On the Supreme Court Ruling in G.R. No. 278353 “Sara Z. Duterte vs. House of Representatives, et al.”
July 30, 2025
The Philippine Constitution Association (PhilConsa) expresses its serious concern over the Supreme Court’s ruling in G.R. No. 278353, which nullified the impeachment proceedings initiated by the House of Representatives against Vice President Sara Z. Duterte. With due respect to the Honorable Court, we believe this decision overreaches constitutional boundaries, disrupts the separation of powers, and weakens Congress’ exclusive authority to hold impeachable officers accountable.
⸻
The Facts Cannot Be Ignored
Between December 2024 and February 2025, four impeachment complaints were filed against Vice President Duterte. The first three complaints, though officially docketed, were never pursued. They were neither found sufficient in form and substance nor referred for committee hearings. On February 5, 2025, a fourth complaint—this time endorsed by 215 members of the House, more than the required one-third—was transmitted as Articles of Impeachment to the Senate, in full accordance with the Constitution.
Yet on July 25, 2025, the Supreme Court ruled that the fourth complaint was barred under the one-year rule in Article XI, Section 3(5) of the Constitution, on the theory that the filing of earlier complaints—even if not acted upon—already “initiated” the impeachment process.
⸻
This Interpretation Is Constitutionally Flawed
PhilConsa respectfully but firmly disagrees with this interpretation. The one-year bar rule was designed to prevent harassment through repeated impeachment proceedings—not to protect impeachable officers from ever facing trial by allowing them to take cover behind mere filings. As the Court itself held in Francisco v. House of Representatives, impeachment is only deemed initiated after the complaint is found sufficient in form and substance and referred to the Committee on Justice. The earlier complaints never reached that stage. To treat them as having “initiated” proceedings defies both logic and constitutional intent.
This ruling invites dangerous abuse. It opens the door for impeachable officials—or their allies—to deliberately file weak or premature complaints to “consume” the one-year window and block any real effort at accountability. This is not a safeguard against harassment—it is a blueprint for evasion.
⸻
Judicial Restraint vs. Judicial Activism
This case called for judicial restraint, not judicial activism. The Constitution gave the House of Representatives the sole power to initiate impeachment and the Senate the sole power to try and decide it. These are textual, exclusive powers, and the Judiciary’s role in such matters should be limited to clear, grave abuses that nullify constitutional norms.
Instead, the Court stepped into the heart of a political process already underway—substituting its own judgment for that of a constitutional majority of the House. It interpreted the one-year bar so broadly that it now disables the very mechanism of impeachment in all but the rarest cases.
This ruling, though perhaps well-intentioned, is a clear instance of judicial activism. It turns the Judiciary from a neutral guardian of the Constitution into an arbiter of congressional timing and internal processes—matters the Constitution never assigned to the courts.
Judicial activism, if unchecked, becomes judicial supremacy. And that supremacy can, over time, paralyze the political departments that the people themselves empowered.

Isko and Vico are two sides of the same coin. Both may be highly charismatic, both may bring a certain level of youthfulness to their office, but one is a genuine public servant while the other is all form without substance.

Imee is free to flaunt her deep loyalty to the VP. But for her to sit as senator judge will be a mockery of the impeachment trial and an insult to Filipinos who seek truth and justice.
Senator Imee Marcos’s decision to accompany Vice President Sara Duterte in public appearances is a glaring breach of ethical and professional standards. As an impending impeachment trial looms—one in which Senator Marcos is constitutionally mandated to serve as a
Best not to react to every Sara post by Channel 2. That way, they'd stop publishing about her. Zero engagement on Twitter means there are no earnings. :)
