Congressman Benny Abante SINUPALPAL si Vice President Inday Sara Duterte Right off the bat, can we give this man his flowers? Congressman Benny Abante just stole the show at the OVP's 2025 budget deliberation! When Vice President Sara Duterte tried to dodge questions and accuse the budget hearing of being politicized, Abante schooled her on courtesy and decorum like a true pro. His stand against the Vice President’s condescending behavior was the real highlight of the day! The question Rep. Abante posed to VP Sara was simple: Does the Vice President believe that the House of Representatives, as representatives of the people, have the right to scrutinize the budget of every government agency? VP Sara, ready with her script, did not give a straight answer—something that didn’t sit well with Rep. Abante. Congressman Benny Abante didn’t mince words: “Why do you have to explain?” But instead of giving Rep. Abante the courtesy of a simple answer to a simple question, what did we witness instead? Evasion, immaturity, and a public meltdown. Clearly, the Vice President is hiding something—and this isn’t just any issue; it’s about public funds!

THIS IS HOW 2ND DISTRICT OF BATANGAS REPRESENTATIVE ATTY. GERVILLE “JINKY BITRICS” LUISTRO HIT THE MARK WITH A HAMMER WITH INVESTIGATIVE LINE OF QUESTIONING AND A PLOT TWIST AS THE FINAL NAIL TO HIT HER HAMMER WITH Cong. Luistro is a gift that keeps on giving. LENI AS PRELUDE FOR THE BUILDUP THAT ONLY THE LIKES OF CONG LUISTRO IS ABLE TO PULL OFF. In a recent congressional hearing of the House of Representatives of the Philippines Committee of Good Government and Public, Representative Jinky Luistro sought clarity on the use of confidential funds by previous vice presidents. Kelvin Gerome Teñido, former Chief Administrative Officer of the Office of the Vice President (OVP), confirmed that Vice President Leni Robredo did not utilize such funds during her tenure, while Vice President Jejomar Binay accessed them only once. Teñido also noted that career officials at the OVP lacked experience in managing confidential funds prior to Vice President Sara Duterte’s administration. CONG. LUISTRO IS ON TO SOMETHING. BUCKLE UP. Cong. Luistro further inquired about Undersecretary Zuleika Lopez, the current OVP Chief of Staff, revealing her previous role as Davao City Administrator. This connection is significant, as Davao City reported over ₱2.6 billion in confidential expenses from 2016 to 2022. WAIT LANG, DOES THIS MEAN CONFIDENTIAL HAVE A DAVAO TEMPLATE? This was another ‘aha moment’ for those who vividly remember Congresswoman Luistro presenting an infographic of Davao City, highlighting the substantial allocation of Confidential Funds. THE MONEY SHOT FEAT. THE SAME CAST OF DUBIOUS CAST OF CHARACTERS BUT A WHOLE DIFFERENT BALLGAME. Congresswoman Luistro’s probing underscores the need for rigorous oversight within the House of Representatives of the Philippines and the necessity of crafting new laws to ensure a more stringent and accountable use of Confidential Funds, preventing misuse by erring public officials. Her presence in this hearing stands as a powerful reminder to public officials of their duty to uphold the public trust—a reminder especially relevant amidst concerns over VP Sara and OVP officials who have hesitated to take an oath before an HOR panel. #LargaLuistro2025

KABOOM! Congresswoman Gerville "Jinky Bitrics" Luistro just shook the House of Representatives of the Philippines Committee on Good Governance and Public Accountability hearing with a massive revelation 💥💥 Let’s dive into Davao City’s P460 million confidential fund for 2022—more than Cebu’s P7.38M, Makati’s P240M, Manila’s P120M, and QC’s P75M combined! 🤯 Why does Davao, a smaller city, have a budget this huge? Congresswoman Luistro brought to light some serious issues that need unraveling: What’s driving this massive increase? 🤔 From P244M in 2016 to P460M by 2022, all under VP Sara Duterte’s term as Mayor. Where exactly is this money going? Disparity with bigger cities: How is it that larger, wealthier cities like Makati and QC get way less? Is there a special privilege for Davao when it comes to confidential funds? 👀 3. Loose liquidation and procurement: Luistro slammed the lack of transparency and called on COA to tighten their grip. She’s pushing for clarity on how these funds are being spent, noting the light requirements for liquidation and procurement. 🧐 4. Cross-checking VP Sara’s mayoral term and OVP funds: Could the same irregularities seen in the Office of the Vice President’s use of funds be traced back to her time as Davao’s Mayor? Luistro suggests a deeper investigation. 🔍 5. Confidential funds sparking action in Congress and COA: The questionable use of these funds has prompted Congress to conduct inquiries and COA to issue Notices of Disallowance. It’s clear something doesn’t add up, and the demand for transparency is getting louder! 🔔 The real question is—what’s really happening with these funds? Congresswoman Luistro’s laser-focused questioning and brilliant analysis have once again proven why she’s a force to be reckoned with in Congress.

🚨 Rep. LUISTRO DARES TO ASK THE UNASKABLE🚨 Congresswoman Gerville “Jinky Bitrics” Luistro, unshaken and fearless, confronts former President Duterte in a gripping interpellation, seeking clarity and accountability for the war on drugs and its chilling legacy. Emphasizing his promise to take full legal responsibility, Luistro probes: What happened to the bodies buried in Laud Quarry? To the victims of the Davao Death Squad? To the lives lost in the 2004 Dumoy raid? Former President Duterte fires back, asking, "Where is your proof?" Luistro responds: "Mr. President, I’m anchoring my questions about these separate incidents from your initial statement—that you are taking full legal responsibility for all the victims of the war on drugs, both legal and illegal. You are a long-time prosecutor, and of course, it is fundamental among us all lawyers to uphold the requirements of due process." Duterte counters with: "We are zeroing in on a particular individual now." Luistro powerfully reminds: "Mr. President, due process is the law that hears before it condemns. Due process is the law that requires notice and hearing." The former president’s short rebuttal, "If you say so," leaves the air thick with tension. Luistro quips back with another gripping reminder: "Mister President, I hope that we will be reminded that by due process, THE END DOES NOT JUSTIFY THE MEANS." Congresswoman Luistro proceeds to present statistics on the war on drugs: - 6,252 individuals killed in police anti-drug operations as of May 2022. - 27,000 to 30,000 individuals killed, including vigilante-style executions. - 427 activists, human rights defenders, and grassroots leaders killed as of December 2021. - 166 land and environmental defenders killed as of December 2020. - 23 journalists and media workers killed as of April 2022. - 66 judges, lawyers, and prosecutors killed as of December 2021. - 28 mayors and vice mayors killed as of December 2021. Cong. Luistro then delivers the crucial question: "Mr. President, my question is: When you implemented the war on drugs, did you strictly comply with the requirements of due process?" With a firm and unwavering tone, former President Duterte responds, "YES." She continues, pointing out: "It is my humble submission that, contrary to the answer of the former president, I humbly believe that the war on drugs never complied with the requirements of due process. The statistics show the huge number of victims of the war on drugs. If my memory serves me right, during the Aquino administration, there were around 200 victims, and during the present administration, there are around 200 victims as well. Given these statistics, there are almost or around 31,000 victims. If indeed they followed the requirements of due process, there should not have been this many deaths. Instead, there should have been many cases pending in court. I hope that all of us are reminded by the fundamental law that no person should be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. It is the humble submission of this representation that the Quad Comm is ready to make a recommendation for the filing of the necessary actions in court for violations of RA 9851—an act defining and penalizing crimes against international humanitarian law—or, at the very least, for murder cases as defined under the Revised Penal Code." The Interpellation Intensifies To conclude her interpellation, she delivers a series of no-holds-barred questions: Luistro: "Mr. President, three Chinese drug lords were killed at the Davao Penal Colony. Are you willing to take accountability and responsibility for this?" Duterte: "Wala ako sa Davao, nandito na ako sa Manila." Luistro: "Are you saying no?" Duterte: "If gusto mong isali yan, idagdag mo, ok lang." Luistro: "How about the death of General (Ret.) Barayuga? Are you willing to take full legal responsibility for this?" Duterte: "No, I do not kill generals." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Parojinog and the 15 others in Ozamiz City. Are you taking full responsibility for this?" Duterte: "Hindi ako nagpapatay ng mga mayor, ma’am." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Espinosa of Albuera, Leyte. Are you taking full responsibility for this?" Duterte: "That is my birthplace." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Toni Halili of Tanauan City?" Duterte: "Malayo yan sa akin, ma’am." Luistro: "The death of Mayor Perez of Los Baños?" Duterte: "Lalo na." A Riveting Ending Luistro fires back: "If you are denying all these, alin po yung tinutukoy niyo when you said you are taking full responsibility for all the victims of the war on drugs, both legal and illegal?" The former president mumbles in response: "Yes, kasi order ko kasi yung, that is my campaign against drugs. Alam mo maraming estasyon, maraming police. Kung nagkaleche-leche doon, hindi ako maghuhugas ng kamay. Of course, nagkamali sila. If there is an appropriate action na gusto niyong ilabas, then file a case in court. I’m challenging anybody or everybody who makes the accusation, whether it is really true or not—maybe true—file the case in court, because may korte tayo. Even if I admit na totoo yan, because I will make the admission there again." Luistro counters: "Are you saying, Mr. President, when you go to court, you are willing to admit accountability for all the deaths during the war on drugs?" Duterte replies: "Of course, may abogado ako, ma’am. Kung ano ang sasabihin ng abogado ko, susunod ako." Luistro presses further: "I hope that everything you said before the Quad can be reduced in writing so that truly we can believe that you are taking full legal responsibility for all the victims of the war on drugs, both legal and illegal. Because as lawyers, we believe that by extrajudicial confession, we have to put that in writing, Mr. President." Duterte responds: "...It’s a policy of government or the president. Hindi ako maghuhugas ng kamay..." The Final Question Luistro asks: "If one of these days the ICC will come, will you voluntarily submit yourself?" Duterte retorts: "Sipain ko pa sila, ma’am." Luistro reminds him: "But you said a while ago, that if somebody will sponsor your fare to the ICC, you will voluntarily submit yourself to their investigation and jurisdiction." Duterte replies: "Yes, pero kung sila pumunta dito, sipain ko." Luistro clarifies: "But will you confirm that you are willing to voluntarily submit yourself to the ICC?" Duterte firmly states: "Oo, punta ako doon, sipain ko din sila." A Gripping Conclusion Luistro ends her interpellation with grace and precision: "I have nothing further. Thank you, Mr. President." In this powerful exchange, Congresswoman Luistro demonstrates fearless leadership and unwavering commitment to truth and accountability, leaving no question unanswered in her pursuit of justice. #LargaLuistro2025

SHOCKING REVELATIONS: BIG NAMES DROPPED BY WHISTLEBLOWER, JIMMY GUBAN! PART 1 Buckle up for this explosive briefer: A whistleblower just blew the lid off a major scandal, implicating big names like Pulong Duterte, Michael Yang, and Mans Carpio in a shocking scheme. Jimmy Guban, a former Bureau of Customs intelligence officer, now serving a jail sentence, claims these three were connected to illegal drug importation. He’s been behind bars for a month, but the details he’s revealing in the Quadcom Committee hearing are sending shockwaves across the nation. 🚨 700 Containers Vanished: At Manila Port alone, 700 containers went missing under suspicious circumstances. No X-rays, no paperwork, no payments—just a simple gate pass and they were gone. How deep does this rabbit hole go? 🚨 A Dangerous Warning: This is where things get even more sinister. The whistleblower alleges that someone named Paul Gutierrez visited him in jail, alongside staff from a Senate Blue Ribbon Committee member, with a chilling warning: “Pag binangit mo mga pangalan na to…mamatay ka!” 🚨 Inside Connections: He wasn’t the only one spilling secrets. While in jail an inmate, who claims to have worked as a seller for Michael Yang, gave Jimmy even more damning details about Michael Yang and their drug operations. But the whistleblower, Jimmy Guban, was too cautious to reveal everything… yet. 🚨 P20M Bribes: According to him, department heads were allegedly receiving P20M each to release those containers without the required documents. The scale of corruption is staggering. This could be one of the biggest bombshells to hit the country. Will justice be served? The nation is watching. watch until the end ctto

PALADESISYON YARN? 😂 VP Sara: I would like to forego the opportunity to defend the budget in a question-and-answer format. I will leave it up to the House of Representatives of the Philippines to decide on the budget submitted. VP Sara wants the budget hearing to cater to her whims. This isn’t leadership—it’s more like a spoiled brat throwing a public tantrum because she’s not ready to defend the OVP’s 2025 budget.

The Learning Crisis: DepEd's DepEd ₱9 BILLION Blunder Under a Sara Duterte Leadership—A Legacy of Neglect? In a harsh reality check during the FY 2025 DepEd budget hearing, it was confirmed that the Department of Education (DepEd) under Vice President Sara Duterte failed to deliver nearly ₱9 BILLION worth of laptops and e-learning equipment in 2023. 🔥 Rep. Gerville "Jinky Bitrics" Luistro put DepEd's ICT Director Ferdinand Pitagan on the spot, questioning how such a colossal failure could occur. "Why request ₱11 BILLION for 2023 if you're prioritizing 2022 funds?" Luistro demanded, emphasizing the dire need for these resources in her district, where the cries for computers and laptops are deafening. With a sharp eye for detail and a deep understanding of the educational challenges in her own district of Batangas, her questioning was both pointed and personal. She brought to light the glaring gaps in the department’s performance, demanding answers as to why these essential resources have remained undelivered while students and teachers continue to struggle. In a manifestation in front of the budget panel, Cong. Luistro expressed her frustration that the delays in delivering laptops and ICT materials are a key reason why the Philippines continues to rank so low in the PISA scores. But this isn't just a 2023 problem—the gaps and underperformance stretch back even further. The previous DepEd leadership left a trail of unfulfilled promises and missed opportunities, failing to upgrade our educational infrastructure when it mattered most. As Secretary Sonny Angara steps into the role, he inherits an agency hamstrung by inefficiencies and a lack of foresight that have long plagued DepEd’s operations. 👩💻 Alarming Ratios: Pitagan revealed that the current student-to-computer ratio is a dismal 1:9, and the teacher-to-computer ratio is an even more alarming 1:30. How can we expect our education system to succeed when our e-learning infrastructure is stuck in the past? 📚 Falling Behind: The consequences of these failures are devastating. The Philippines has consistently ranked near the bottom in global education assessments like PISA, where we came in 76th in Reading, 76th in Mathematics, and 79th in Science out of over 80 countries in 2023. ⚠️ A Legacy of Neglect: The underperformance is the main highlight with Sara Duterte’s DepEd. The previous leadership failed to address these critical gaps, leaving Angara with an uphill battle to modernize an outdated system. The 2023 COA report reveals a dismal budget utilization rate of just 50.07% for the DepEd Computerization Program (DCP), with zero accomplishments for the year—a stark indicator of the department's operational failures. We hope to ask the Vice President: Is this really the future of education we want for our children? If so, it certainly isn’t reflected in how DepEd has been running. The budget was there, the teachers desperately needed the equipment, yet we’ve left them disappointed and waiting. The clock is ticking—it’s time to break this cycle of neglect. Secretary Angara has his work cut out for him.
