SENATORS CLASH OVER DETENTION OF EX-DPWH ENGINEER WATCH: Minority senators question Senate President Tito Sotto’s decision to transfer Brice Hernandez - a former DPWH engineer cited in contempt over alleged lies in the flood control probe - to the PNP Custodial Center. Sotto said Speaker Martin Romualdez relayed Hernandez’s request not to return to the Senate, citing fears for his safety after implicating senators. A compromise was reached: Hernandez would be held at Camp Crame under Senate security. Sotto maintained the Senate retains legal custody, but minority senators argue that the transfer undermines their authority and are demanding Hernandez’s return. The session was suspended following heated arguments. | Eimor Santos

'I MUST ADMIT, NAGING GIRLFRIEND SIYA NG STAFF KO' Senator Jinggoy Estrada denied the allegation by former Bulacan 1st district assistant engineer Brice Hernandez that he had any staff named Beng Ramos, but eventually admitted that Ramos had a relationship with his personnel. Hernandez earlier showed in the House Infrastructure Committee inquiry on Tuesday a conversation between him and a certain Beng Ramos, implicating an alleged kickback scheme in an infrastructure project involving Estrada. "I do not have any staff named Beng Ramos since I entered the Senate, ok? That's for sure. She's a staff of the Blue Ribbon Committee," he said in a press briefing. Just as when the media asked for a follow-up on the issue, Estrada interjected, "I must admit, naging girlfriend siya ng staff ko. Tapos!" (Video by Jesse Bustos/The Philippine STAR)

‘Hindi po tayo ang nagpasok sa unprogrammed funds… Ang ordinaryong senador, wala pong ganyang kapangyarihan’ WATCH: Senator Joel Villanueva denies any involvement in the P600 million for Bulacan flood control projects in the 2023 unprogrammed fund. Former DPWH-Bulacan engineer Brice Hernandez claimed that Villanueva was behind the “budget insertion” and allegedly received 30 percent in project kickbacks. Hernandez initially said the funds were in the 2023 General Appropriations Act but later clarified they were under unprogrammed appropriations. Senate blue ribbon committee chairman Ping Lacson confirmed a P600-million item under unprogrammed appropriations, but noted that Hernandez has yet to provide proof of Villanueva’s involvement on the amount. | Eimor Santos 🎥: Office of Sen.
