Kristine Ferrer, Duterte and Mighty cigarettes connection
In October 2017, Duterte’s Malacañang announced a P40B tax compromise settlement with Mighty Corporation. Who headed the compromise team with Mighty? It was the tax lawyer Kristine R. Ferrer, now of the Sara Duterte impeachment trial.
The enduring DDS fallacy of Risa Hontiveros and Philhealth
Who is mightily angry at Risa Hontiveros? Those who are upset that she is doing something good in the Senate. Something good that erodes the myth and lies about the Dutertes.
Fake news from the mouth of Sara Duterte
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.

Who is the NPA enabler (daw)?
At the very least, the red tag of Risa Hontiveros is insane. There never has been any judicial or official evidence that connects Hontiveros with the CPP or the NPA. Those who study the phenomenon of political spectra in fact see her as consistently aligned with center right and administration policies rather than the political left.
