While I agree with Bham Akino’s policy position about upholding the sovereignty of our justice system over ICC, mag-ingat din tayo sa kanya. He may just be doing this to woo the DDS voters para kumampi sa kanya. Kung totoong iyan ang posisyon niya, he must do something—hindi puro salita. Huwag magpabudol.

You insisted him to be prosecuted in The Hague because you considered that Court as the pinnacle of justice in your world of imagination. Pinagbigyan kayo. Hiningi ninyo, binigay sa inyo. You went to the ICC to prove your charges and to present your evidence beyond reasonable doubt—I repeat, BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT. IF Mr Duterte goes home clean despite bringing the case to the ICC, that means you FAILED to prove your allegations. Hindi na iyan kasalanan ni Duterte, at mas lalong hindi kasalanan ni Duterte if he goes home hero because that’s the result of the justice you tried to achieve—but you’re afraid that it might backfire, eh kayo-kayo rin naman ang gumawa niyan. You made Mr Duterte more relevant, more sentimental, and more influential. Huwag niyong sabihing corrupt ang ICC, dahil kayo na mismo ang nagpumilit pumunta diyan despite sa warning namin na ICC’s intervention is a breach to our national sovereignty.
Victims’ counsel: If the charges are not confirmed, one of the gravest concerns of the victims is that Mr. Duterte will return to the Philippines as a conquering hero. He will resume preaching his gospel of impunity… It is a very serious concern of the victims that Mr. Duterte will be portrayed in history by his multitude of followers as the leader who vanquished the ICC and who cleansed his country of 30,000 “rapists, murderers and dangerous criminals,” which were the scornful words he sweepingly used against all those who were killed in his murderous spree. | 📷: ICC •⁠ ⁠Follow our live updates here: inqnews.net/DuterteICCHearin… •⁠ Watch our livestream here: inqnews.net/DuterteattheICCF…

Hala. VISA free na ang mga mainland Chinese. Paano na po iyan sir Boss Tarriela?Alam ko pong sobrang love love niyo ang West PH Sea, at sobrang talino niyo po ng sobra. 🥰🥳 Ang pogi niyo rin. Nakakabakla. 😍 Hindi po ba kayo natatakot na may mga Chinese spies na sasama sa new policy na ito na pwedeng kumukuha ng info para sa intel ng WPS? Dahil po sa mga pananakot ninyo noon na may mga Chinese spies, ayan tuloy takot na takot na takot na kami sa China. Hindi lang takot, tinuruan niyo ring magalit sa China ang mga Pinoy. Salamat sa pag-influence niyo sa amin na magalit at matakot sa China ha, sir Boss Tarriela. 😫🥹 Dahil nagtagumpay kayo sa pag-instill ng fear/takot sa sambayanag Filipino na sinasakop tayo ng China at may mga Chinese spies, hindi po ba kayo natatakot sa bagong VISA-free policy ni BBM? Nasaan po ang boses ninyo ngayong parating na ang mga Chinese spies na kayo naman po ang nag-groom sa amin na may mga Chinese spies nga? Mabuhay po ang ating bayani na si Tarriela! Mabuhay po ang pinakamakabansa at pinakamatapang na tagapagtanggol ng WPS na si Tarriela! Pero bakit tahimik ang bayani nating si Tarriela sa mga parating na Chinese spies ng WPS? Hindi niya ito kokontrahin? Hala, pro-China na ba si Tarriela? Nagtatanong lang. Kasi tinawag din niyang pro-China (o Chinese propagandist) ang mga taong may political position of being friendly with China. Ngayon, wala siyang putak sa mga magsisidatingan ng mainlanders. Bakit??? Ngekkkk!

Noon ko pa wini-wish na ang admin should establish their “masa” appeal through PCO by publishing the life-changing achievements ng admin na hindi puro PR damage control—iyong sanang mga achievements na nanunuot sa consciousness ng masa… Ang sarap gumawa ng website sana na nagfi-feature ng mga tangible achievements at output ang admin surpassing their predecessors. Pero nagmistulang mudslinging ang nangyaring PR—iyong aawayin iyong mga critics at ilalagay pa sa mga hearing nila instead of sasampalin ng output. I originally created a website to document the infra outputs ng BBM admin. Dahil sa wala namang mga significant output sa infra na pwedeng idikit sa pangalan ni BBM, hindi ko na na-update ang website. Ginawa ko na lang siyang political commentary blog.

The Philippines has the worst performing stock market today. I’m waiting what PR damage control the PCO/Claire Castro/and their SocMed periphery will do to avert this distressing and embarrassing news. With the successive blunders the admin has been doing, hindi naman nakakagulat ang balita. 🙂 Sad news but not surprising. I’m most excited about the PR material they will use to manage this bad news, though. Wala po akong sinisiraang tao by saying this opinion. Huwag pong magagalit sa akin, magalit po kayo sa corruption ng flood control na until now wala pang accountable. P.S. Alam ko ring walang gagawing life-changing solution ang admin dito, but let’s wait sa PR damage control nila, doon sila magaling, in fairness.

■ The discussion about the insertion versus amendment is irrelevant. Insertion man iyan o amendment, Rizza H needs to explain saan niya ginastos ang mga bilyones ng taong bayan in the midst of this flood control scam. Tutal, siya naman ang #1 sloganeer sa transparency. She should TAKE THE LEAD and be an example of the type of transparency she has been chanting since time immemorial.

■ ON THE MULTIPOLARITY OF ONGOING RALLIES TODAY For me, all political colors should participate in peaceful assembly. As a believer of multipolarity in politics, pumunta tayo sa lansangan—showing our various perspectives ng galit (kahit pa scripted iyan or organic na galit). Kung may partisan intentions man ang iba, that’s part kasi ng democracy. I find it valid, kasi I also have my personal preference if I were to self-reflect—thereby making me partisan in some ways; and kailangan nating i-recognize iyong bias natin so that we will not unconsciously/subconsciously project it others. In that way, hindi tayo ma ba-back-to-you sa ating double standards. Pero ang totoong panalo sa democracy ay iyong pagalingan ng argumento that would resonate sa majority. Talo ang motherhood statements. Sa dami ng grupong nag-rally ngayon, iyong may pinaka-organic at pinaka-transparent na messaging ang may malaking chance to grow their numbers more. This messaging would translate to a community, then to votes. Malalaman natin iyan sa 2028. Pero kung rule of law, Inday Sara would succeed leadership if BBM steps down. Iyan ang totoo. The implementation of the Consitution is non-partisan, and I’m pretty sure na iyan ang kinakatakot ng ibang partisan groups na ayaw sa Duterte. Then again, all partisan groups have the right to peaceful assembly; but let’s remember that democracy is always a game of numbers. Nakukuha natin ang numbers na iyan sa pagalingan ng argumento that would touch the sensibilities and common sense of the majority. Common sense always wins over motherhood statements na one-liner or ultra-idealistic.

In as far as I’m concerned, Speaker MR is one of those public servants who I criticized here on X not due to personality politics, but due to legitimate issues that are grounded on national interest from my POV as a regular citizen of this country. Yet, I identified some people here on X who defended him, diverting each issue to Inday without confronting the issues thrown to the Speaker who is not immune of the same criticism. Nevertheless, it’s their call and right to defend the Speaker. I don’t judge them as a person, but their reasoning would reveal their motives. They will be judged based on their reasons and arguments. Since 2022, I’ve seen series of questionable actions. Hindi ko na iisa-isahin, but it started when he had a meeting with the CPP-NPA-NDF operatives. I have passionately discussed my positions here on X about these issues. These NDF people are usually the noisiest in terms of criticizing every government, yet they suddenly stopped criticizing this admin and the Speaker despite looming issues. This is a red flag. When the NDF is silent, it means they are getting what they want. They are only noisy about Inday because their hidden evils were exposed by her. After the meeting with MR, they connected every issue to Inday Sara; but since 2022, wala naman silang napatunayan sa mga akusasyon nila that would cause the legitimate removal of Inday from her office. Indeed, time is the ultimate truth-teller. Partida, nasa power na sila (mga kalaban ni Inday sa pulitika). They control the media now I surmise (no one is criticizing the Speaker the way they criticize Inday, right?) the budget, and our taxes. Forces and government resources—many of them—were apparently directed to smear Inday. We were diverted from the real issues of corruption, in the expense of the flood control funds apparently used to destroy their political enemies and fatten their pockets. They allegedly bribed the public through “ayuda,” do smear campaign against Inday, and to facilitate the extraction of PRRD to The Hague. Ngayon, it turned out that Inday was right when she first exposed Zaldy Co and Romualdez. Until now, wala namang maikasong corruption kay Inday. She is still standing as VP. Pero si Zaldy Co, wala na sa bansa. Si Romualdez naman, unti-unti nang kumakanta ang mga kasamahan niya against him. Inday is winning, and her critics for sure are unhappy of her win. I encourage the Duterte critics to CONTINUE to hate the Dutertes if that’s their priority, but they should blame themselves if Inday wins in bee battles due to the lack of compelling arguments some of these anti-Dutertes have that would change the minds of the voters who are supporters of Dutertes. Ang problema kasi sa mga critics ng Dutertes, madali lang i-defend at i-debunk ang mga issues nila like the Confidential Fund using technicalities, law, policies, and logic (this is the biggest demonization they dis so far). Ang hindi kasi nila gets is that they do not have the monopoly in the control of the flow of ideas and perspectives. Pero iyong mga issues na binabato ng mga DDS sa mga kalaban ni Sara, hindi nila ma-defend gaya ng mga nawawalang flood control funds, budget insertions, etc. Isama mo na rin iyong self-righteous tones, pero wala naman silang makitang mali sa hanay nila which is hypocritical sa mga taong tinatawag nilang bobo at panatiko. Iyan ang weak points nila. What they only have is PR machine to influence public opinion, not necessarily the universal forces that control the natural order of things.

■ ACCOUNTABILITY IS ALSO TECHNICAL CoA has given the OVP (Sara Duterte) the “highest” audit rating—the same term used by the Kakampinks during Leni’s time. You do not audit without technical guidelines and rules, otherwise, magiging chaotic. Technicality is a bedrock of accountability and justice. Even tribal communities and indigenous justice systems have rules and technicalities guidelines. If you want to accuse someone, make sure na may ebidensiya ka. Hindi ka pwedeng mag-akusa ng walang ebidensiya tapos iyong inakusahan mo pa ang pag-eexplainin mo? The audacity. I mean, this rule applies to anyone. Kaya nga noong kinasuhan si Risa Hontiveros ng mga kriminal actions like kidnapping and wiretapping (recently, may allegation ng fake witness), nilagay nila sa korte. Pinilit ba nilang mag-explain si Risa sa public? No! Why? Kasi pati si Risa, kasama siya sa technicality na iyan covering accountability. Ganun din kay Sara. Sinasagot niya ang mga allegations sa proper venue; pero itong mga kalaban niya sa politika, dinadaan sa drama at politika kahit alam naman nilang may proseso ang lahat. Sa kabilang banda, nagtatanong kayo saan dinala ang CF. CoA na po ang may sagot diyan pursuant to existing guidelines and public disclosure. Sumusunod lang sa guidelines si Sara. Accountability is also following the guidelines. Lastly, nasa iba’t-ibang korte na ang mga kinaso nila sa confidential fund, andun ang proper venue. Wala sa political circus. Doon sinasagot ang mga issues na outside sa away politika. If you want to demand accountability, dapat alam niyo rin na ang accountability in the government is technical and procedural para maiwasan ang mga mahilig mag-akusa na “walang ebidensiya” na dinadala sa trial by publicity. Gusto niyo rin bang akusahan namin si Risa na ninakaw niya ang extraordinary funds niya dahil hindi naman ito transparent at wala siyang published accounting dito na may opisyal na resibo? At alam niyo bang walang resibo ito sa liquidation niya yet bilib na bilib kayo Kay Risa kung maka-akusa pero bingi-bingihan sa issue ng kanilang MOOE na mas malaki ang potential for abuse kaysa sa CF na audited ng CoA? Hindi kayo pro-accountability. Anti-Duterte lang kayo. Nakikisunod sa uso without understanding the law, guidelines, and technicalities that run our government processes—preventing the abuse of power ng mga mahilig mag-akusa. You know the potential danger of what you’re doing? Pwede ring gawin nila iyong ganitong technique niyo against you kapag si Sara ang maluklok sa kapangyarihan, at hindi naman na kayo makakapalag dahil kayo naman ang nag-set ng standard na ganito dapat ang accountability. Meaning, ibabato lahat ang akusasyon kay Risa (at mga anti-Duterte na humming ng accountability) tapos ilagay sila sa hot seat. Kung hindi satisfied, gagawan ulit ng issue at iimbestigahan hanggang sa masira ang image. Ganyan din ba ang gusto niyong mangyari kay Risa? What goes around, comes around.

■ THE SUPREME COURT, THE CONSTITUTION, AND THE EXPECTED (NOT SURPRISING) ADMIRATION OF THE LIBERALS IN TORRE'S CLOWNERY The SC ruled that the impeachment petition filed against ISD is unconstitutional. I’ve been consistent with my position that I’m pro-impeachment trial bloodbath. However, the Constitution is the bedrock of justice. Hindi po emotion natin ang basis ng justice. If may opinion naman tayong iba, they are still valid; but these opinions do not repeal the ruling and the wisdom of the honorable judges. In human psychology, normal lang naman po to feel defeated, sad, frustrated, and angry kapag natatalo sa argumento at pinaglalaban sa buhay. These emotions and reactions by the liberals and their followers are normal process to keep the ego intact. Iyong emotional reactions ng ibang mga anti-Sara to the point that they even went overboard by smearing the SC is actually predictable. However, their incapacity to control their emotional reactions could make them irrational like iyong mga nakikita nating reactions ng ilan sa kanila ngayon na walang nuance. That’s why it’s called a reaction, kasi walang explanation. Walang discussion. Walang policy position. In fact, De Lima said sorry for demeaning the wisdom of the Court. Ito iyong sinasabi ko. De Lima was too reactive emotionally that she failed to guard her logic and rational limits. Sadly, many of the followers of De Lima believed in her, only for De Lima to say sorry in the end. So paano na iyong mga nag-agree kay de Lima noong una? Nagpadala rin sa blind fanaticism against those they hate? Will they call out de Lima for telling a legal lie that smear the high Court? Of course, hindi nila iyan i-callout kahit umamin ng kamalian despite claiming that they are into honest, transparent, and accountable people. Kasi nga, its personality politics for some of them. It’s showbiz style. It’s all about emotional reaction. The might probably react with, eh kayong DDS, have you called out Dutae? Hah? Iyong mga sinabihan niyong tanga, blind followers, kulto, at mga panatiko ang mga DDS, but you expect them to call them out? Kayo ang nag-set ng standard ng moralidad, kaya walk the talk. Huwag ipasa sa iba ang moral standards na hindi niyo pala kayang gawin. Meanwhile, many of liberals-turned-Marcos supporters have enabled the PR stunt of Torre amidst calamities. Nawala na iyong mga comments nila like: “prioritization dapat” “napaka-insensitive” “nasaan ang Pangulo” Hindi ko marinig iyong mga tinig nila noong panahon ni Digong sa pag-criticize ng mga kakulangan ngayon. I thought they were critical of Digong because of their love for the country, accountability, and transparency na sila naman ang nag-claim. It turned out that it’s the personalities pala that they hate (or love). Parang showbiz. Hindi nga nila mabatikos iyong sarili nilang sinusuportahan na personality. Pero Ayun pala! They only said those words noon because they just hate Duterte, not because they believe in the wisdom of what they were saying. Kasi, if they believe in what they are saying, it should be applicable to everybody—hindi lang iyong hate nilang personality (kasi sila naman ang nagke-claim na sila lang ang tama, mababait, at righteous—so dapat consistent). Kita naman ngayon. They now minimize calling out the government because it no longer fits their personality politics na mahilig magpadala sa PR stunt, and even applaud the PR stunt even if it contradicts their previous sloganeerings. Remember the slogan “never again?” Ngayon, they are enabling the government they used to hate, and the political spectacle they are doing. Now they removed their mask. Their “never again” warcry was just “sunod sa uso” pala. Iyong mga mahilig sumunod sa uso alam niyo na, sila iyong totoong madaling mauto. Imagine the shift in their tone? Tapos after 30 years, magiging pro-Duterte ulit kapag nauso like iyong pagkawala ng Never Again ngayon? History repeats itself ba? Continued…

You don’t even see these people discuss their policy positions, they’d just do their usual personality showbiz politics that they crave over consistency and genuine love for the country, IMHO. They just react, they don’t discuss.

I watched Idol kids Philippines 2025. Grabe iyong mga Englishan ng mga kids ngayon. Mga Gen Alpha. Puro American accent, mga Taglish, at very fluent sa English. This generation would solidify the PH’s position as an English powerhouse. It’s ok to be multilingual, BUT let’s not forget our native tongue mga kids ha. ☺️ My point is, the kids today have the access and resources to learn any language. It’s their advantage as digital natives. How they learn a new language is more flexible without the toxic Filipino-style shaming when someone attempts to speak English (na naranasan ng maraming millennials). Learning a language is more visual, fun, interactive, and with less judgment. We, millennials, who speak English were even shamed as “pa-sosyal” or trying hard. So our learning journey in speaking English with confidence and in choosing whatever accent we want was not an easy journey. However, we millennials have always been the game changer. We bridged the transition from analogue to digital, from cutting the cycle of toxic childhood, to bridging the gap between obsolete and modern. The millennials sacrificed a lot of shaming and correcting some social defects, that the Gen Zs—in my opinion—became the experimental output of those transitions. Gen Zs became woke and self-entitled. However, the Gen Alpha would yearn for regulation and structure as they witness how woke and self-entitled their tito and tita Gen Zs are. The Gen Alpha would be more enlightened for seeing both the wokeness and self-entitlement of the Gen Zs ate and kuya and the wisdom of their Millennial Tito and Tita who set the foundation of digital citizenship. Social order is a cycle, but the role of the millennials was, and is, pivotal.

THE BAROMETER OF HYPOCRISY — Take note: I will block users that reply using adHom, memes, irrelevant topics, unreasonable toxic statements, or diversionary replies. I saw this on threads.net. I really love arguments that follow the Alicia Keys tune of “what goes around, comes around; what goes up must come down.” Kasi diyan mo mage-gauze iyong hypocrisy level ng kanilang arguments. Ito nga iyong mga sinasabi ko sa mga liberals at wokes na ang hilig-hilig magbalandra ng one-liner slogans like “no to corruption.” However, if you will ask them the details of what they are fighting for including its applicability sa mga kalaban nila sa politics, NGANGA sila. It turns out na hindi pala talaga nila naiintindihan ang pinaglalaban nila OR iyong slogan nila is for convenience only at para talaga sa idols nila at hindi para sa bansa. Sino ba ang mahilig mag-callout na immoral at bobo ang mga DDS, di ba mga wokes, liberals, at YellowPinks? They present themselves as warriors against corrupt leaders, but they stop doing it when their own camp is on the spotlight for alleged corruptions or incompetence. Regarding the pag-demand ng accountability kay Inday for alleged corruption dahil pro-good governance daw sila, wala pong pinipiling politiko ang slogan mo kapag nagbalandra ka. If you claim na mahal mo ang bansa, hindi lang dapat si Sara ang inaaway. Una, ano ba talaga ang purpose nila bakit sila nagbabalandra ng slogans? Of course, karamihan sa kanila is just for social aesthetics na parang make-up para magmukang cool, makabayan, at maganda sa paningin. Pero kapag tinanggal ang make-up, kita mo iyong mga tsismis sa balat. Ganyan ko ihalintulad ang hypocrisy ng mga wokes at liberals na mahilig sa slogans na “no to corruption” at kung ano-ano pa. Iyong “never again” ninyo sa mga Marcos, BUKING kayo na for aesthetics lang pala, pero deep inside mga pro-Marcos pala when it’s convenient for them. Asan na ang Never Again niyo na 30 years ninyong sinisigaw? Ngayon naman, “impeach Duterte.” Pero Malay natin, baka after 30 years or less magiging pro-Duterte din mga ito. Well, Hindi natin alam. Si Risa Hontiveros at Bam Aquino nga allies na ng Marcos eh. ANG AWKWARD! P.S. The allegations of corruption (Duterte) and the allegation of bribery (mga kalaban ni Sara) are both issues of corruptions. Wala po tayong proof na may bribery inasmuch as wala rin tayong proof na may malversarion of funds sa CF ni Sara as of this post. It’s just that, since you already accused Sara of crime from an allegation of corruption, you should also not be silent of the allegation of bribery. Both are forms of corruption kung totoong anti-corrupt kayo.
