SEN. CAYETANO LEAVES SP POSITION
Tiniyak ni Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano na makikipagtulungan siya sa sinumang susunod na maihahalal matapos bumaba sa puwesto bilang Senate President.
"It has been the honor of my life to serve as your Senate President. Offices are temporary, titles are temporary, even majorities are temporary — but your right to the truth is not," giit niya.
“After speaking with Sen. Joel Villanueva, it appears our colleagues on the other side will soon have the numbers to elect a new Senate President. I will not stand in the way of that vote,” dagdag pa niya.

Q: What happened to our institution that it’s already in our culture to consistently ask our administration to ask for transparency and accountability? Is this how we are supposed to talk to our students, workers, and teaching staff? | via @Roi_TheGDN
This report breaks new ground on how sand mining transformed into a complex, cross-border dredging industry. Read the full investigation: pcij.org/2026/06/16/river-dr…
The human cost is severe. In Ilocos Sur, fishers say natural barriers like "Snake Island" have been dredged away, exposing homes to stronger waves and forcing them further offshore. Yet, local officials defend the projects due to tax revenues.
From Cagayan to Ilocos Sur, fishing communities are fighting back against river dredging masquerading as "flood control." This is our comprehensive look at the harm caused by these projects on the country's western seaboard. We also connect these projects to Chinese corporate.
AUDIENCE: We don’t care about the politics, we don’t care about the social media, what we care about is why the University is not upfront with [its community]. These kinds of gatherings should have been taken [prior] because we are stakeholders. | via @Roi_TheGDN
FOLLOW-UP Q: You say you’re accountable and transparent and then you don’t say anything after five days. And when you confront us, there’s always a sense of superiority. Transparency nga yung issue namin, bakit kayo ganyan? | via @Roi_TheGDN
YAP: I am being subpoenaed. I am supposed to appear on Friday, Graduation day of the Batch 2025-2026. [So I’m asking the lawyers on what we’ll do]. | via @Roi_TheGDN
Afterwards, Incoming Sanggunian President Jedryc Romero shared that he doesn't have any question but he brought along with him a letter signed by more than 3,000 students and alumni really calling for hard accountability. | via @Roi_TheGDN
ROMERO: I think it’s time to consider relieving Ms. Matec Villanueva of her position. [...] Or at the very least, there should be a deep reevaluation of how we should communicate and talk to the community. | via @Roi_TheGDN
A faculty member expressed a demand for transparency.
ABAO: You didn’t even preventively suspend Coach Baldwin and the other coaches. Kung kami 'yun [teaching staff], ginawa niyo agad yun. | via @Roi_TheGDN
Noong gabi raw na inaresto si Digong, kasama raw si Leila de Lima sa meeting doon sa Townhouse.

BALDWIN IS NOT IN GOOD CONDITION
Watch: Atty. Karl Justeen David, counsel for former Ateneo Blue Eagles head coach Tab Baldwin, said the coach was unable to attend today’s NBI appearance due to his current condition and was not in a good state to appear at the scheduled setting.
His legal team assured that Baldwin remains committed to fully cooperating with the ongoing investigation and legal process and will appear at the next available setting. @News5PH
