Girly is pissed, pissed. Ang valid and true ng rant n'ya about taxes and yes, please lang, makinig kayo sa sinasabi n'ya about voting the right people for public office.
I never voted for Tito Sotto before, but credit where it’s due. I honestly respect what he did last night. Since his comeback, he has been standing for what is right more often, and what happened last night proved it again.
When the Minority senators walked out and the Senate lost quorum, Tito Sotto immediately pointed it out and moved to adjourn the session. Marcoleta tried to argue and question the rules, but Tito Sen shut it down fast with that line: “Akala ko ba magaling sa rules?”
And the thing is, Sotto was absolutely correct based on Senate procedure. The motion to adjourn takes precedence once there’s no quorum. Cayetano couldn’t do anything. Even Loren Legarda, as presiding officer, had no choice but to concede and adjourn the session.
Tito Sotto stood his ground.
Turns out, the “comedian” understood the Senate rules better than all of them. Maybe tama nga na bumalik ka, Tito Sen. 👏
“The people are our bosses. The masa, everybody. The street sweeper, the janitor, the security guard etc. are our boss because they elected us. Our powers emanate from the public so we have to respect that.
Kung yung amo namin ay nagtatrabaho, paano naman kaming mga utusan na nakaupo lang at pasarap-sarap? Mag-iinternet lang?
Samantalang 'yung amo namin, kailangan magtiis sa traffic, pumunta sa factory na mainit. Magtatrabaho 'yung construction worker, napaka-init ngayon ng panahon, pumupukpok doon. These are the people paying our salaries, Ms. Karmina, and yet for us in the comforts of our home, airconditioned? We don't need to go to the Senate for session kasi pwede ang teleconferencing, videoconferencing? Kaya nga we objected, nakakahiya!”
The questioning of THE Karmina Constantino and the response of Senator Erwin Tulfo??? LOUDER!!!!
Lord. Please Lord…speak I to every heart of those in the senate. Speak in a way that they have never experienced before. Give them the courage and direction to simply do what is right in Your eyes. We’ve such a broken country Lord🙏🏼💔Have mercy on us…please🙏🏼🇵🇭😥
“Kung walang political dynasties, ‘di sana naiwasan ang Senate primetime bida… Ang starring mga pamilyang nagkakampihan para sa posisyon as lead characters,” Akbayan Rep. Cendaña said as House Bill 8389 on prohibiting political dynasties was tackled in the plenary. | via @agathamgregorio
