VERA FILES FACT CHECK: Photo of Burj Khalifa lit up ‘for Marcos Jr.’ is FAKE
A banner showing support for Marcos Jr.’s 2022 presidential run was photoshopped at the base of the tower.
A banner showing support for Marcos Jr.’s 2022 presidential run was photoshopped at the base of the tower.
The graphic showed only the 2018 ruling affirming the Sandiganbayan’s 2010 decision and 2011 joint resolution which, as reported by multiple news media, dismissed a case against former president Ferdinand Marcos, his wife Imelda, and his associates.
From his age to the zillions of assets that his family owns, Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. has been accused of lying; more so now that he is running for president.
(UPDATED) Taliwas sa ulat ng One News, isang television news channel sa ilalim ng cable provider na Cignal TV, hindi at “walang planong maghain” si retired Supreme Court (SC) associate justice Antonio Carpio ng petisyon sa Commission on Elections (Comelec)para sa diskwalipikasyon ni Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. bilang kandidato sa pagkapangulo sa 2022 elections.
Contrary to a report by One News, a television news channel under cable provider Cignal TV, retired Supreme Court (SC) associate justice Antonio Carpio did not and “has no plans to file” a petition at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) for the disqualification of Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. as candidate for president in the 2022 elections.
Pinalabas ng kampo ni presidential aspirant Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. na sinabi ni James Jimenez, tagapagsalita ng Commission on Elections (Comelec), noong Nob. 2 na "walang malinaw na batayan ang petisyon na kanselahin ang kandidatura ng dating senador.”
The camp of presidential aspirant Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. made it appear that James Jimenez, spokesperson of the Commission on Elections (Comelec), said the petition to cancel the candidacy of the former senator on Nov. 2 has "no clear basis."
Jimenez made the statement hours before a group of civil society actors filed the petition.
The evidence presently unraveling on Bongbong Marcos’ educational attainment has brought out another distressing angle: It was poor Juan de la Cruz who subsidized it.
“The term ‘alumni’ is not synonymous with ‘graduates’. One can be an alumnus without graduating,” it said in an email response to VERA Files Fact Check.
