Sabi ng 18 maleta boys, meron din daw si Kiko Pangilinan.
Talo si Kiko sa 2022 election at naupo lang ulit noong June 30, 2025.
SO WALA SIYANG POWER MAG INSERT SA NATIONAL BUDGET. BAKIT NIYO BIBIGYAN NG KICKBACK?!
Basta hindi niyo kaalyado matic may maleta, no? Mga tarantado.
@manilabulletin Daming hanash ng majority si Pia Cayetano hindi kinamusta, si Robin ayaw masigawan si Marcoleta walang word of encouragement. Grabe ang sensitive nila.
A CHEAP SHOT
Sen. Marcoleta’s attack on Sen. Risa Hontiveros that she did not know the rules because she is not a lawyer is a cheap shot, an argument from arrogance and credentialism at its worst.
One need not be a lawyer to recognize a legal issue. One need not be a doctor to recognize when a person has fever. And one need not be an engineer to recognize a bridge collapsing.
Sen. Risa Hontiveros may not be a lawyer but dismissing her argument on that basis is an attack on her credentials, not a defense of substance.
In public debate, the question is not who speaks. The question is whether what is being said is true.
If Senator Marcoleta disagreed with Senator Hontiveros, then he should answer her arguments, not her profession.
In the end, the irony was impossible to miss. Sen. Marcoleta was defeated by Sen. Sotto, a non-lawyer but knew the rules better.
That is the problem with credentialism. It confuses titles for wisdom and professions for truth.
