Duterte’s ‘troubling conditions’ at ICC
The former president is indeed in "troubling conditions," not because of what his children are protesting about, but because of the special treatment accorded him, such as the frequent visits by family members, the comforts at the Scheveningen penitentiary and the legal processes on the charges against him, things the thousands of suspected drug users killed under his brutal drug war never had.

Kontratista and kongresista
Kontratista and kongresista.Their appellations rhyme. And it should. Both share a commonality – they dip their fingers into funds that do not belong to them. In the process, both enrich themselves with the perks of the ultra rich, at taxpayers’ expense. Both are thieves.
FACT CHECK: Stealing of public funds NOT a crime against humanity
