Diversionary tactic of Vice President Sara Duterte EXPOSED! The Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations responded to the video message of the Vice President Sara Duterte last night and I agree that this is nothing but a diversionary tactic. In his speech as attached below, Chairman Zaldy Co pointed out very good points and I highly recommend you watch its entirety. The video message last night was a diversionary tactic to the real issues 1.) the 125 million confidential funds spent in 11 days 2.) Low PISA score 3.) Issues and questions about the DepEd expenditures and a lot more. If there is one thing I want to highlight here, it is probably the part when Chairman Zaldy Co said that Vice President Sara Duterte assured them she can defend/justify the requested confidential funds. And so, let me thank the 19th Congress for disapproving the confidential funds requested by the OVP in 2024. “Pang-apat, paulit-ulit niyang sinasabi, "I will defer to the wisdom of Congress," pero hindi ito totoo. Kung talagang iginagalang niya ang Kongreso, sasagutin niya ang mga tanong, lalo na sa isyu ng confidential funds. Last year, kinausap namin si VP Sara tungkol sa 2024 budget, at sinabi niya na “ituloy n’yo yan” – meaning ang confidential funds – dahil kaya daw niya itong i-justify. Buti na lang at hindi namin itinuloy. Tama ang ginawa namin, at saludo ako sa aking mga kasama sa Kongreso. Ang kapangyarihan ng budget ay nasa Kongreso, at ipinagmamalaki ko na hindi namin isinuko ang kapangyarihang ito sa Office of the Vice President. Ang pinag-uusapan dito ay pondo ng taumbayan. Tandaan, ang COA, hindi Kongreso, ang nagsabing mali ang paggamit ng P73-million confidential funds sa loob lamang ng 11 araw “

Isang mariing “OO” ang akin pong boto upang pagtibayin ang Resolusyon at Articles of Impeachment na isinumite ng Committee on Justice. The Committee received voluminous documentary evidence, heard testimonies, examined audit findings, reviewed certifications from government agencies, and evaluated sworn statements and financial records. And after all these proceedings, the Committee found probable cause and approved the Articles of Impeachment. Mr. Speaker, mga kasama: Malinaw ang nakita natin sa mga pagdinig: - We saw evidence of misuse and abuse of confidential funds amounting to hundreds of millions of pesos; - We heard testimony regarding questionable disbursements, fictitious identities, and liquidation documents with indications of falsehood and falsification; - We examined evidence of unexplained wealth and billions in suspicious and covered transactions that are manifestly disproportionate to declared and known lawful income; and - We confronted deeply disturbing threats and inflammatory rhetoric that target not only ranking public officials but attack the very heart of our constitutional order. Taken together, hindi po ito mga mababaw na paratang lamang. Hindi po ito mga isolated or random incidents lamang. These are patterns of bad behavior. These are habits of abuse of power. These are matters that go into the integrity, accountability, and fitness of a public official occupying the second highest position in our government. Mr. Speaker, let us also be clear: impeachment is not political persecution; it is not a partisan activity; it is a constitutional accountability mechanism. Mawawalan ng saysay ang mandato at diwa ng pananagutan na nasa Konstitusyon kung matapos makita ang ebidensya at magpasya sa Komite na may sapat at makatwirang dahilan upang umusad ang proseso ay basta-basta na lang ihihinto sa Kapulungang ito ang gulong ng hustisya at pananagutan. The constitutional process of accountability could not move forward if we shirked our duties in this House, if we dropped the ball in this plenary. Kaya naman po, bilang endorser ng Saballa et al. Complaint, at bilang aktibong lumahok sa mga Committee proceedings, I vote YES to affirm the favorable resolution of the Committee setting forth the Articles of Impeachment. - OO, dahil sa prinsipyo, at sa ating obligasyon na nakasaad sa Konstitusyon. - OO, dahil ang mga ebidensyang iniharap ay nararapat masuri sa isang ganap na paglilitis. - OO, dahil walang sinuman — gaano man kataas ang katungkulan — ang dapat mangibabaw sa batas; walang sinuman ang dapat makatakas sa pananagutan. - At higit sa lahat, OO, dahil karapatan ng bawat Pilipino na malaman ang buong katotohanan ukol sa mga seryosong alegasyon at mabibigat na ebidensya laban sa Pangalawang Pangulo. Given these compelling reasons — and for the sake of truth under the banner of justice and accountability — Dapat lang litisin na si VP Sara Duterte sa Senado.

SHARON CUNETA DEFENDS KIKO PANGILINAN FROM 'FAKE NEWS,' URGES SUPPORT FOR SENATE BID Megastar Sharon Cuneta spoke out against what she described as relentless fake news targeting her husband, former Sen. Kiko Pangilinan, as he seeks a return to the Senate. "Alam niyo po, ang tagal kong pinag-isipan kung papatulan ko pa ba o palalagpasin ko na lang 'yung mga paninira kay Kiko. Eh, wala hong tigil ang mga tsismis na peke naman tungkol sa kanya lalo po ngayon na siya ay tumatakbo ulit para senador," Cuneta said in a video message on Monday, February 24. She lamented the widespread influence of social media in spreading misinformation, particularly against political opponents. "Isa pa, ayon po sa mga social scientists, kapag daw ang isang kasinungalingan o fake news ay paulit-ulit pong pinagkalat at paulit-ulit pinakita sa inyo o sa taong bayan, maya-maya po, aba'y, mayroon na pong maniniwala. Ganun po kasi parang brainwashing, 'di ho ba?" she said. Emphasizing Pangilinan's integrity, Cuneta assured voters that in their nearly 30 years of marriage, he has been a devoted husband and father who always keeps his promises. "In our almost 30 years of marriage, si Kiko po ay walang ginawa kundi maging mabuting asawa at ama. Pag siya po ay nangako, talaga pong harangan mo ng sibat kailangan pong tuparin niya," she said. She reiterated his commitment to revitalizing the country's agriculture sector and lowering food prices, saying, "Isusugod ni Kiko ang agrikultura sa Pilipinas at gagawin ang lahat para pababain muli ang presyo ng pagkain. Promise po." Cuneta ended her message with a strong endorsement, urging voters to support Pangilinan. "Ito po, si Kiko Pangilina na po. Number one sa akin, number 51 po sa balota," she said.

My honest review of Buruguduy The Musical Nung una, akala ko parang mababaw na patawa lang. Medyo nakornihan pa nga ako nung simula eh. Naisip ko "ang labo naman nito...patawa lang sila ng patawa" (buti nalang nakakatawa talaga sila✌🏼😅) Siguro I was trying to look for something deeper, and was hoping that things would soon make sense...or at least magkaroong ng satisfying amount of substance in their world of absurdity (naks...world of absurdity) Sure, it was fun and funny...and how the songs were used (and how the actors performed them), were amazing, and the visual assault was spectacular. Given na yun eh. ...but I kept asking myself, yun na ba talaga yun? Isang nakakatawang trip na may simpleng closure sa dulo? Then looking back, I soon realized how dark and simple the narrative was. Para akong binuhusan ng isang timba ng malamig na tubig. It was brilliant. Like a deep disturbing track disguised as a novelty song. Every single line and element pala were symbols and clues on what the story was all about...even the stupidest little things. Everything about it was precise and calculated. Lahat sinadya. Sobrang galing nung writer. Sobrang galing nila lahat. Napaka-fearless and unapologetic. Parang "kung di mo napansin yung serious side, oks lang...at least natawa at natuwa ka...and yun naman ang importante" 😁👍🏼 Kung na-gets mo naman, parang "p*tang ina...yun pala yun. Mga sira-ulo sila" 🤟🏼😳 sobrang in your face pala yung kwento. Sobrang dark and twisted, pero may subtle, at simple, and beautiful na silver lining.❤️ May seryosong matututunan, at makatotohanan na inspirasyon...na binalot sa isang makulit at magical na mundo. Basta...sobrang galing. ...and sobrang saya lang. Isang feel good na musical (na may dark twist all throughout) at siguradong lalabas kang naka-ngiti.❤️ Excited na ako manood ulit bukas...pero this time, I'll be looking out for more clues, hints, and easter eggs. ...or maybe, I'll just sit back, and simply enjoy the ride, without thinking too much. Cheers!!! P.S. sa mga magtatanong, hindi po ako nagbebenta ng tickets✌🏼😅 kung gusto nyo ng tickets try nyo tawagan si Pie +639178728765

Jhoanna: “Sobrang grateful kami kasi di namin in-expect na mangyayari ito samin na makakatungtong kami sa ibang stage.. pero senate naman diba…” Mikha: “us girls, we’re so grateful to be recognized, the fact na namention rin nila yung privacy and all of that and that they offered a prayer to us, it was a touching moment…” Sheena: “meron talaga kaming goal. Meron kaming stand na talagang gusto namin, everywhere we go, we bring our Filipinism with us, the whole OPM scene with us, and at the same time, our culture. We're so proud of it, why would we hide it?” Colet: “from the start naman, yun naman talaga ang goal ng BINI, ang makilala ang culture ng Filipino. yung Filipino culture mismo.. And itong nangyayari ngayon… naa-acknowledge yung lahat ng effort na ginagawa namin para sa Pilipinas, para sa OPM…” Aiah: “to be able to have a handshake with them parang sino ba kami.. and hearing them also talk about us and also acknowledge our hardwork, so it’s a good feeling and we’re so happy to be here.” Maloi: “i believe na dapat talagang ma-share ito to all the artist hindi lng OPM artist but also lahat ng mga creatives out there na walang means, walang kakayahan, walang outlet platform for it….” Gwen: “naniniwala po talaga kami na ang laking potential ng mga Pilipino, lahat ng artist. Ang dami pang kayang ibigay and ipakita out there globally, and sobrang laking bagay po nito samin.” Stacey: “I think now is the time, tayong mga Pinoy, yung pinoy talents, pinoy creativity, pinoy culture ay makilala din internationally… kung kaya ng ibang international artists, why not mga Filipino, kayang -kaya din natin makipagsabayan kaya now is the time na talang mag-go tayo sa global scene, dapat di tayo matakot, wag nating ikahiya kung sino tayo dahil lalaban ang mga pinoy.” credit: abscbnnews YouTube Channel

𝗔𝗞𝗕𝗔𝗬𝗔𝗡 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗥𝗔𝗙𝗔𝗘𝗟𝗔 𝗗𝗔𝗩𝗜𝗗’𝗦 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗩𝗜𝗖𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗦𝗔𝗥𝗔 𝗗𝗨𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗧𝗘 Sabi ni Vice President Sara Duterte, walang batayan ang impeachment complaint na inendorso ng Akbayan Party. Funny. For something she insists has no merit, it rattled her enough to release a video message, not to answer the serious charges, but to desperately attack us and our Chair Emeritus, Senator Risa Hontiveros. She even called the complaint “harassment.” How can something she insists is baseless harass her? Ano ba talaga, ate? Her video doesn’t project confidence, it reeks of fear, poorly disguised as bravado. And why wouldn’t she be afraid? The prospect of Congress impeaching her again grows more real by the day. The Senate, under Senate President Tito Sotto, is ready to do its constitutional duty if the articles reach it. Simple lang naman ang hinihingi sa kanya, ipaliwanag ang pagwaldas ng pera ng bayan. Pero hanggang ngayon, sa kabila ng napakaraming palusot, ayaw at hindi pa rin niya maipaliwanag kung sino sina Mary Grace Piattos and friends, at kung saan napunta ang P 612 million in confidential and intelligence funds. Tama na ang palusot, Sara. Prepare to go down in history as the first vice president to be impeached, not once, but twice. #AkbayanPartylist

Ive always wanted to post this whole conversation.. BIANCA' S PARENTS MUST HAVE AVAILED THE LIVESTREAM.. THATS WHY THEY NEVER judged DUSTIN. LIKE his haters did who probably watch it in Primetime, which is super edited or on tiktok vids who surely spliced it even more... to paint a certain narrative. He is just emotional of what happened.. Aminado nman silang lahat na sinadya nilang asarin sya ng paulit ulit. Kaya nya natawag na insensitive si michael kasi alam ng hurt na sya di pa rin tumitigil. ( even josh shared his experience with Michae and kira ) When he said di sya sanay sa ganun babae : putol lang kasi pero at the start of the video.. Dustin : ipaparinig mo na may gusto kang iba. my favorite part? How he explained "makakaapekto yun sa tingin ko syo." Dustin: ganun nman kasi talaga like yung actions natin.. for example sipain ko yan (cup tower) kahit sabihin kong joke lang nman anu magiging tingin mo sa kin? KUPS AKO. ginawa ko sya eh.. If anything this video proves kung gano nya talaga kagusto si Bianca from the start. Na before the incident puro positive lang yung nakikita nya sa kanya... and he was really happy. Natawa pa ko sa part na sabi nya.. Ienjoy na lang daw nya.. (stay sa PBB) di nman daw kailangan (lovelife) .. tapos sasabihin nyo sya ang may hanap ng loveteam... and sna na-air yung part na to.. Josh : outside ba di ka inaasar ng tropa mo? Dustin: inaasar nila ako sa gusto ko.. Hinde yung ganun.. Yung harapan tapos tropa tapos babae (na yung mga tropa nya tutuksuhin yung isa pa nyang tropa sa gusto nyang girl ) 😂 GETS?? he also mentioned that at that point.. they've had serious conversations na about family etc. Josh even asked if maingay pa din si bianca during those talks.. Dustin: TAHIMIK i also appreciate how he stopped talking when he noticed cameras were on him and how he said mabait si brenty. ( na di rin comfortable kay michael by the way eh first duo nya 😂) i hope everyone should see this.. the very conversation that has been blown out of proportion.. All villains have Backstories.. YES! but Dustin? he wasnt the villain...his backstory? makes him the victim.. Thank you sa pag edit sa primetime.. berigood kayo. #dustbia #dustinyu #BIANCADEVERA

[𝗪𝗔𝗧𝗖𝗛] 𝗠𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗺𝗮𝘆𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 ML Partylist 𝗥𝗲𝗽. 𝗟𝗲𝗶𝗹𝗮 𝗠. 𝗱𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗺𝗮'𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗕𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝟭𝟬 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 I propose an amendment to the budget of the Office of the Vice President (OVP) in the form of a reduction from P889.24 Million to its 2025 level of P733.2 Million representing a reduction of P156 Million or 17.5%. This is found in House GAB Volume I-A Page 22 Line 19. Madam Speaker, Madam Sponsor, may I briefly explain my proposed amendment. Every peso in this budget is the people’s money. And when we demand accountability, we do so not out of hostility, but out of duty — duty to the Constitution, duty to the people, and duty to the truth. Let me then again put this on record: VP Sara Duterte’s repeated refusal to face this chamber is an insult. It spits on the duty of accountability, while she clings to millions in public funds she refuses to explain. This is arrogance. Para tayong mga magulang na tinatabig at sinisigawan ng anak na tumatangging magpaliwanag kung saan napunta ang baon. Kahangalan ang magsabi na aksidente lamang ito o resulta ng pagkakamali. Malinaw na pangmamaliit ito sa Kongreso at sa taumbayan. Sa madaling salita po: paulit-ulit na tayong binabastos ng Bise Presidente. Congress holds the purse. And when a child squanders the family’s money without answers, the remedy is clear: bawasan ang baon hanggang matuto. Let me be clear: this reduction is discipline, not demolition. Malayo ito sa ginawa ng kanyang ama na ginamit ang budget para pahirapan ang Commission on Human Rights (CHR) — a constitutional body created to defend the powerless. What we do here is different: we call out entitlement, we confront arrogance, we demand respect. Public money is not a toy. Hindi ito pabuya na pinamimigay sa mga imbentong tao na may imbentong pangalan sa mga imbentong project. It is a trust. And until the Vice President learns respect, this House must act as the parent that disciplines a brat. Alam ko po that this move will generate varied reactions. It might even be exploited by certain camps to elicit sympathy for VP Sara. Dyan naman sila magaling. Kadramahan. Pero hindi pwedeng mangibabaw ang drama sa kung ano ang tama, sa kung ano ang makatwiran, at sa kung ano ang nararapat sa pagtatanggol sa dignidad ng institusyong ito at ng proseso ng pambansang budget. So Madam Speaker, Madam Sponsor, I respectfully but firmly propose the reduction of the budget of the Office of the Vice President from P889.24 Million to its 2025 level of P733.2 Million. I so move. Maraming salamat po.

𝗜 𝘃𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗡𝗢 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗕𝗶𝗹𝗹! 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗮 𝗻𝗮 𝗱𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁 𝗨𝗻𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. 𝗪𝗮𝗴 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼, 𝗸𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗡𝗼, 𝗡𝗼! Sa kabila ng matagumpay nating mga ipinaglaban sa proposed 2026 National Budget, mas mabigat pa rin ang mga nakita nating item na hindi katanggap-tanggap. Humihingi ang Judiciary ng ₱28.31 billion reconsideration — pero ang ibinigay lang ay ₱1.46 billion. 5.15% lang po ito. Isang co-equal branch na may napakalaking papel ang Hudikatura, pero kulang-kulang ang suporta. The Judiciary deserves not just respect in words — but support in resources. We are also dismayed by the cut in the additional budget for the Commission on Human Rights. Taon-taon na lang, underfunded ang CHR. Hindi dapat kinukuripot ang pangangalaga sa ating dignidad at karapatang pantao. Pagdating naman sa Unprogrammed Appropriations, I firmly believe that it’s time to stop having this in the national budget. Unang rason: Unprogrammed Appropriations have no definite source of financing. Walang tiyak na pagkukunan na koleksyon ng buwis o utang para dito. Kung wala palang pera ay bakit magbabalak na gumasta? Pangalawang rason: The practice of having Unprogrammed Appropriations is tantamount to undue delegation of legislative power to the Executive. Only the legislature has the power to appropriate. In the past, billions have been authorized to be released without adequate congressional scrutiny and sufficient safeguards. Naging pugad tuloy ito ng mga ghost, sub-standard and overpriced projects. Also, some UA items came in lump-sums, with no specificity or itemization, with no prior determination of, say, real projects and actual recipients. Only the Executive knows how unprogrammed funds are being used, and we in Congress and the public find out only after the fact. This abdication of the congressional power of the purse must be discontinued. Pangatlong rason: Nagiging kumbenyenteng parkingan ang Unprogrammed Appropriations ng mga dapat naman ay programado at obligado nang mga gastusin. This practice has created persistent false hopes and mass deception among the affected sectors and agencies, who have been made to budgetary support when no real funding actually exists. Kung wala nang UA, mapipilitan ang Ehekutibo at Kongreso na talagang pondohan ang mga ito, sapagkat may mandato at prayoridad sa ilalim ng mga batas o kontrata. Prime examples of these are the “revised AFP modernization program”, “prior years’ LGU shares”, “support to foreign-assisted projects” and “budgetary support to GOCCs.” I also expressed disappointment on the rejection of the proposed amendments to the Special Provisions on Unprogrammed Funds, as proposed by Representative Tinio, that would have provided additional safeguards against abuses of unprogrammed funds. Kung ipinipilit pa rin ang unprogrammed appropriations, bakit nireject pati ang additional safeguards at accountability mechanisms para dito? Therefore, my stand against the Unprogrammed Appropriations is a constitutional imperative and a moral obligation on my part. This Representation votes NO vote to House Bill No. 4058.

🚨PBBM to the Senators: GET BACK TO WORK! This is what he said in this interview: 1. Get back to work. Get back to work because it's important. Ang dami nating kailangan gawin. We had a meeting sa UPLIFT Committee and marami tayong kailangan pagawa sa mga batas, mga batas na we were thinking na baka magka-supplemental budget, baka magka- amendahan namin ang mga ibang batas. Ito ay kailangan para makapagbigay tayo ng tulong sa taong bayan dahil nga sa oil crisis. Kung walang session, hindi ko nga maintindihan eh dahil ang pagkakaintindi ko is that ang rules — nag-congressman naman ako, nag-senador din naman ako. Ang rules diyan bago ka mag-cancel ng session, you have to inform the other house three days before you cancel a session and there has to be a very good reason for canceling a session. 2. I don't think na ihahatid mo ang isang senador para pumunta kung saan siya pupunta, hindi yata sapat na dahilan para i-cancel ang isang session. Isang session lang 'yun. Ngayon, kanselado na naman ang isang session. Hindi ko nga maintindihan kung papaano sila magtatrabaho kung ganito. Ang House of Representatives ngayon ay nagtataka kung papaano ba, nagbago na ba ‘yung rules, nagbago na ba 'yung mga patakaran natin kagaya ng mga nakaraan? It is a rule that is contained in the Constitution. 3. I'm afraid all these events that we have been witnessing has thrown the Senate and its leadership, the whole Senate, into disarray. It has discredited the leadership and it has stopped the essential business of legislation in government. The two other departments continue to work. The Executive continues to work. The Judiciary continues to work. Why does the Legislature decide to stop working? I don't understand that. I talked to my fellow senators at the time I was senator and we cannot figure out bakit magkakaganto, anong nangyari, paano tayo napunta rito. 4. The best description I can have is that the Legislature is now in disarray. But that is exactly the opposite from what we are trying to achieve. We are trying to achieve some form of stability so that people can get on with their lives, so that people can plan ahead for their future, so that people can count on the assistance of government during this time of an emergency. And we cannot do that if the Legislature decides to stay at home and have a vacation. That is anathema to everything that governance is about. 5. I never imagined in my entire life, in my entire political life, that such a thing could happen, especially to the august — it's no longer august now — to the august body of the upper house, the Senate of the Philippines. ###

Just days after Claire Castro inaccurately and maliciously took Franco Cruz Mabanta's apology to the First Family out of context to allegedly help the narrative of nationally shamed former Martin Romualdez, the Presidential Spokesperson found herself on the receiving end of the verbal wrath of honorahle and patriotic Filipino protesters on the streets of Vancouver, Canada. The protesters did not hold back—directly calling her a liar, among a flurry of pejoratives. At a press conference this week, Castro deliberately spun a question from a reporter to make it look like Mabanta was spreading fake news about the First Family. However, PGMN has never once spread fake news about anyone. Moreover, although the PGMN Anchors are allowed to say whatever they want themselves, PGMN as a company itself has long made the strategic editorial decision to never attack President Bongbong Marcos, Vice President Sara Duterte, or Mayor Leni Robredo—a decision further concretized after Romualdez framed Mabanta in a fake extortion plot prompting PGMN to declare war exclusively against one enemy: Romualdez. This week at a Malacañang press conference, Castro was asked this question by a reporter: "Last week PGMN founder Franco mabanta posted a lengthy video. He apologized to the President and the First Lady for the past criticisms na ibinato ng PGMN against them and kasama rin din po doon yung kanyang paratang that Former Speaker Martin romualdez orchestrated the rift between the president and the vice president and also betrayed many of his political allies, including president Marcos. Your take on this?" Claire Castro responded: "Ang paghingi ng paumanhin ay pag amin ng kamalian. Ang pag amin ng kamalian papaano nila masasabi sa tao na totoo ang kanilang kwento taong aral dito. Wag gumawa ng intriga lalo na kung walang basehan. Ang pag iingay ng walang saysay ay nagiging biktima lamang ang mga Pilipino na walang malay. At ang paninira na walang basehan ginagawa lang na mangmang ang ating mga kababayan so iwasan ang mang intriga kung gagawa kayo ng anumang pag iimbestiga siguraduhin lamang ninyo na kayo ay may mga ebidensya. Hindi kailangan daanin sa pamilya. Hindi kailangan daanin kung saan saan kung mayroon kayong ebidensya, sampahan niyo na agad ng kaso." This entire answer from Castro was completely taken out of context. And was obviously perverse in intent. Mabanta did not apologize for criticism that never happened. Mabanta was apologizing for "feelings that had been hurt in the past", when he worked for the then-future First Couple back in 2017-18. A gesture that Mabanta felt was both "necessary" and "sincere" after having parted ways eight years prior. Instead of addressing the gesture truthfully, Castro twisted the message to supply ammunition for the hideously dishonest Romualdez camp, trying to make it look like Mabanta and PGMN's comprehensively accurate exposés against the former Speaker were fabricated. Planting loaded questions via corrupt reporters to be answered in a corrupt way by corrupt spokespersons while coordinating with corrupt media outlets to subsequently report a lie is a common practice in politics for governments around the world. Often this scheme is planned in the dark, without the knowledge of the principal.

🚨 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
