Why Sara wants to be president now

Vice President Sara Duterte’s declaration of her readiness to assume the presidency is actually a desperate ploy to save herself. Seventy days from now (Nov. 27), she will again be a subject for impeachment.

Here lies Enrile at impunity

He may be dead, but that doesn't mean we are done with Juan Ponce Enrile. In our hands lie the power to bequeath the real narrative of who he was: a butcher of the Marcos dictatorship, a beneficiary of the Marcos ill-gotten wealth, a predator of the country's tropical rainforest, a senator mired in the corruption of money that he never owned because it belonged to the state's coffers. Shame on Juan Ponce Enrile even at six feet below the ground.

Good riddance to bad rubbish

Lucas Bersamin’s appointment as the 40th executive secretary of the Philippines in Sept. 2022 was rather met with raised eyebrows. That was because it was common perception that his record as associate justice, later as chief justice, of the Supreme Court was not only lackluster. It was rather associated with cases of partisan political origins.

INC, OVP, Zaldy, Imee: The Duterte destab strategy

Despite a Duterte destab strategy that is now clearly built to oust Marcos and install Duterte, the reality was that the INC was not going to have any of it. And so there they were, the Duterte loyalists, standing in the midst of the crowd in Luneta, silenced by the INC leadership. It was a sight to behold.

How many more lies can we take?

While Marcos appears sincere in getting to the bottom of the trillion-peso flood control scandal, his part in approving the questionable insertions in the budget and the release of funds for projects that turned out to be inexistent cannot be ignored. Perhaps the time is ripe for the president to acknowledge negligence and be forthright in admitting his faults.

Naniniwala Ba Si Cardinal David sa “Bloodless” Drug War ni Bongbong Marcos?

Hindi agad huminto ang patayan dahil lamang sa nagpalit ang administrasyon. Maaaring lingid sa kaalaman ni Cardinal David, pero ang pagtangan at pagsulong niya sa impormasyong ito ay pagpasakop sa bisa ng “bloodless” drug war propaganda ng administrasyong Marcos. Bagay na paulit-ulit na tinunggali, pinabulaanan, at tahasang nilantad na mali ng Dahas Project ng UP Third World Studies Center. Binubura ng “bloodless” drug war na propaganda ng administrasyong Marcos ang mismong mga pagpatay na gustong mabigyang-linaw at katarungan ng Cardinal.

The Duterte children in the economy of DDS killings

The Duterte children are capable of giving orders to kill because that is the political culture they had been habituated to.These children were raised up never to fear the repercussions of their actions. They can explode in violent behavior. Sara’s plan to have Bongbong and Liza Marcos assassinated when the House’s citation of contempt for Zuleika Lopez tested Sara’s patience, was a manifestation of that venom. Self-confessed former DDS hitman Edgar Matobato made reference to a bloody incident at Deca Homes in Davao City when Paolo Duterte was confronted for his hoodlum behavior.
