There must be an overdose of hallucinogens intake in the apogee of power and functionaries I am afraid we are bound to some eerie national emergency situation, assuming we are not there yet. While some parts of Metro Manila and greater part of Central Luzon are literally under water caused by unmitigated flooding, Pres. BongBong…
Some propagandists who are obviously in Malacanang payroll are asking where, in the midst of devastating floods in Metro Manila and Central Luzon, is Vice President Sara Duterte. Either they did it on their own or followed the script of President’s Spokesman Claire Castro to please their benefactor who appeared to be paralyzed watching the…
The prosecution lead counsel, Lorna Kapunan, is one of a kind. She argues her case in the Impeachment Court at the Senate Hall and in the Court of Public Opinion. In both situations she controls the situation. Consider this. When former State Auditor Roderick Wamil, the prosecution witness, was asked by Defense Lawyer, Atty. Michael…
Maybe Marcos found the the proposition of Laurel so preposterous he did not give any mention of it in his SONA. DA Sec Laurel asks for ₱500B with zero roadmap.

I had coffee yesterday with a big businessman from Davao. He doesn’t want his name printed, but he’s been around long enough to see 5 presidents come and go. “Jun,” he said, “the billions they stole from flood control and ghost projects? It’s not in banks. It’s in houses. Brand new houses.” He meant cash….
It is ridiculously funny how the anti-Duterte forces make such a big issue of a flood that occurred in a low-lying area outside of the city poblacion following hours of heavy rain. They feasted on it like it is a far better headline story than the delisting of former DPWH Secretary Manuel Bonoan from scroll…
Photo Courtesy: Inday Sara Duterte facebook page A vlogger named Nico David showed up from nowhere to make a statement “… Sara Duterte isn’t even from Tacloban – so why is she there? “ David who hails from Pampanga considered it unusual for the Vice President to pay personal visit to the wake of the…
The last time I heard of the trial of former President Rodrigo Duterte af the International Criminal Court (ICC) is that the Court is urgently hiring Filipino (Tagalog) and Cebuano (Bisaya) translators and interpreters ahead of the trial of former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte.
