Sara's lie will now make the rounds of its troll supporters where it will be exponentially repeated and then proclaimed as gospel truth, that Rodrigo Duterte is the only active case in the ICC.The ICC Cases Portal currently lists the status of 34 cases in their pretrial or trial stages.

Makapangyarihan ang pananahimik ni Bongbong Marcos sa kanyang SONA. Winawala, pinaglalaho ng pananahimik na ito ang mga biktima ng kanyang rehimen. Tinatago nito ang mga anak sa mga naghahanap nilang ina. Ipinagkakait nito ang katahimikan at katarungan sa mga biktima. Binubura nito ang kasaysayan ng dahas na una nang sinulat sa dugo ng kanyang sariling kamay.

COMMENTARY: The public should not be too alarmed of the Chinese claims over the northern part of the country. Unlike the government’s incoherent posture in the West Philippine Sea, the Armed Forces of the Philippines has a more structured and disciplined approach to countering Chinese moves in the Batanes Group of Islands and with elements of a viable “denial strategy” in play.
