    Won’t attend his own court proceeding. Won’t face legitimate media. How is Bongbong Marcos president material?

    Gobyerno: Wala na pong pera pang-ayuda. Mga Pilipino: Okay, edi kami na lang gagawa ng paraan. Gobyerno: Aba bakit successful yan? Community pantry, pugad ng NPA! 🤷🏻‍♂️

    ABSOLUTELY NO to using the pandemic as an excuse for a no-election scenario in 2022. If you can’t solve the health crisis by 2022, all the more reason there should be an election.

    A woman tests positive for coronavirus after arriving in Australia from the Philippines; a man arrives in Taiwan from a 5-day trip to the PH and is now ill with coronavirus. The Philippines has been coronavirus-free for weeks according to government. What to make of this...

    Our best athletes train abroad. They’re funded by private sponsors. Why? Because our gov’t doesn’t provide them enough support. When KL locked down, a Malaysian weightlifting official set up a gym in his home for Hidilyn. Hidilyn’s win is hers and the people who supported her.

    Someone died while waiting for his turn at a community pantry. An IATF medical adviser says it’s “death by community pantry.” Sir, no. People endure the sweltering heat for a bag of food aid because guess what, the government has not provided enough help. So whose fault is it?

    Is it racist to suggest a ban on flights? NO. Is it racist to criticize Wuhan residents for traveling overseas? NO. Is it racist to look at every Chinese person and see disease? YES. Is it racist to refer to Chinese people as “chinks”, “chekwa”, etc.? YES

    Why is Bong Go in cabinet meetings? He’s a senator, no? What happened to separation of powers? Is Senate leadership not concerned that a senator is so deeply involved in executive functions?

    Tapos na po ang eleksyon. Demand sympathy and accountability from those you elected, not those who lost in the election,
