    By VERA Files  |  Mar 09, 2022 12:18 PM

    The pieces of paper Robredo was holding during the debate were not cheat sheets, but scratch papers provided by CNN Philippines to the presidential aspirants and were used for notetaking.

    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: FB pages, groups spread FAKE Robredo quote card on face shields

    By VERA Files  |  Nov 12, 2021 10:19 AM

    Robredo said no such thing. This post followed her statement in a media briefing where she said: “Sa totoo lang, medyo naasiwa ako na, at this point, issue pa rin sa atin ang face shield. Imbes sana na napagkakagastusan natin ‘yon, idagdag nalang natin sa pondo sa bakuna.” (To be honest, I’m annoyed that the face shield [mandate] is still an issue for us. Instead of buying more, we should increase our funds for the vaccine).

    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: FALSE 2016 report on Robredo’s disqualification resurfaces

    By VERA Files  |  Nov 11, 2021 9:09 AM

    The claim was invalid then because the LP was able to submit its SOCE for the elections several days before the extended deadline set by the election body. No disqualification took place and Robredo was sworn into office as the country’s 14th vice president on June 30, 2016.
