DEATH ANNIVERSARY NI PNOY

Inaalala ngayong araw ang ikalimang anibersaryo ng pagpanaw ng ika-15 pangulo ng Pilipinas na si Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III.

If Robin Padilla really wants to amend Kiko Pangilinan’s Juvenile Justice Act, umattend muna siya ng special session imbes na special (film) screening.

Tapos, duon kayo sa session mag argue ni Senator Kiko.

Prro wala dapat magagalit kung masigawan, este, mataasan ng boses.

Golden retriever wouldn’t stop barking at an officer after the Japan earthquake, and his owner wouldn’t have made it.

Two years ago, after a powerful earthquake hit Japan, buildings collapsed, streets cracked open, and rescue crews worked through the rubble searching for anyone still trapped underneath.

Police, firefighters, and neighbors were all helping, but in the middle of the chaos, one golden retriever kept barking at an officer like he was trying to tell him something.

At first, the officer didn’t stop.

There were too many people missing, too much noise, and too much destruction everywhere. But the dog refused to leave him alone. He barked harder, tugged at the officer’s pants, and kept pulling him toward a different part of the rubble.

That’s when the officer followed.

The dog led him nearly half a mile away to a collapsed home, where another golden retriever was lying on top of an elderly man trapped beneath broken concrete.

The second dog had stayed over his owner the whole time, almost like he was trying to protect him from the slabs above.

Rescuers later said the rubble had collapsed in a way that left just enough space for the man to survive, but not enough for him to get out. He was rushed to the hospital with broken ribs and crushed legs, but miraculously, he was alive.

Remembering PNoy: A Selfless Leader and Public Servant

One of my regrets in life is that I was not able to talk to PNoy more after his term ended because of the circumstances beyond my control.

I was unjustly detained in 2017 based on trumped-up charges filed against me by the Duterte administration. Although he was able to visit me several times, our time to catch up was very limited. Alam ng mga nakakakilala kay PNoy na kulang na kulang ang ilang oras sa mga kwento at jokes pa lang nya.

I was still in detention when PNoy died in 2021. It was deeply saddening to have lost a great leader and dear friend. What made it even more heartbreaking was that I was not able to attend his wake to pay my final respects.

Today is even more meaningful as I also remember that exactly two years ago, I was finally cleared of all the bogus charges against me. Hindi ko man sya personal nang mapapasalamatan, pero kasama lagi sa aking dasal at pag-alala sa kanya ang lubos kong pasasalamat sa pagbibigay nya ng lakas at pagpaparamdam sa akin noon na hindi ako nag-iisa.

His exemplary leadership and enduring legacy will forever remain a source of inspiration and strength.

Maraming pwedeng masabi tungkol kay PNoy, pero maaari ko itong maibuod sa pagiging mabuti, kwela, simple, mapagmalasakit at higit sa lahat, pagiging tapat niyang lider na inalay ang sarili para magsilbi sa mga Pilipino at pahalagahan ang interes ng Pilipinas.

He stood firm in serving Filipinos with honesty and accountability, and he was unwavering in his loyalty to, and love for our country.

Pinangunahan nya ang paglilingkod hindi lang sa pagbabawal ng wangwang, hindi lang sa hindi nya pagnanakaw, kundi pati na sa pagpapanagot sa mga tiwali – gaano man ka-impluwensya o kataas ang katungkulan.

Yan din ang ipinakita nyang tapang at paninindigan sa pagtatanggol sa ating soberanya at teritoryo, kahit dambuhalang bansa man ang ating nakabangga.

Sa harap man ng Gabinete o ng kanyang mga staff, sa mga kwentuhan at mga pag-uusap na lingid sa publiko o sa media, makikita’t mararamdaman mo kung gaano katotoo ang kanyang puso sa pagsisikap na maipatupad ang positibong pagbabago, para “iwan ang Pilipinas na di hamak nasa mas magandang kalagayan kaysa kanyang dinatnan.”

Salamat, PNoy. Itutuloy namin ang laban na buong puso, buong lakas, buong sigasig, buong katapatan at buong buhay mong itinaguyod para sa ating bayan at mga kababayan.

We miss you, Sir…

MASAMANG DAMO SI DATING PANGULONG DUTERTE?

Bumuwelta si Palace Press Officer Usec. Claire Castro laban kay Vice Pres. Sara Duterte kasunod ng pahayag ng bise na "masamang damo, matagal mamatay” umano si Pres. Bongbong Marcos.

“Sa aking pagkakaalam ay nabanggit niya si dating pangulong Duterte… Tama lang naman na masamang damo ang pagkaka-describe niya sa kaniyang ama,” sabi ni Castro.

Giit ni Castro: Sino raw ba ang umaming siya ay pumapatay, umaming nagnanakaw ng pondo ng bayan, at umaming mayroong assassin?

“Sino ba ang gumagamit ng marijuana habang siya ay presidente na? ‘Yan naman ay inamin lahat ng kaniyang ama,” dagdag ni Castro.

Binigyang pansin ni ICC trial chamber III presiding judge Joanna Korner na naging laman ng balita sa Pilipinas ang kaso ni dating pangulong Rodrigo Duterte, at kasabay nito ang pagkalat din aniya ng "fake news." #DuterteInICC

‘DAPAT PANTAY-PANTAY’

Sen. Erwin Tulfo said he will push for a bill imposing a “no work, no pay” policy on high-ranking government officials who are absent from duty without a valid reason.

Tulfo cited the case of Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa, who stopped attending Senate sessions following reports that the International Criminal Court had issued an arrest warrant against him.

Yes, I’d vote for Risa. Not because she is family, a cousin I love, but for her steadfast love of country, courage, dedication to good governance, heart for the downtrodden, fairness, being calm and tough under pressure, easy laugh and positive attitude, among other good things!

OMG banas na banas ang mga DDS Bloggers sa virality and relatability ng #WinRi.

Pinatulan ang post ko hahaha!

Alam nila na totoo ang stats na nilabas ni Sec. Edwin Lacierda.

They don’t deny the 6 Billion impressions of Senators Win Gatchalian and Risa Hontiveros in a week or so.

Many people who didn’t know them before know them now through #WinRi.

What they dispute is pinagtatawanan daw.

Sure, manure. Stay pressed and annoyed, mga ka-DDS!

Sent to us from an officer who told us this was filmed last Wednesday afternoon at Riverside Veterinary Clinic in Indianapolis, Indiana. Made us stop in our tracks and left us in TEARS. Here it is, in it's entirety:

"The officer is Sergeant Paul Greer. He's 41 years old. Fourteen-year veteran of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

The dog is Bruno. A ten-year-old German Shepherd who served eight years as Paul's K9 partner before a joint condition ended his working career two years ago.

When Bruno retired from active duty, Paul adopted him immediately. Brought him home. Bruno spent his retirement on Paul's couch, on Paul's bed, in the passenger seat of Paul's personal truck.

The transition from working partner to household companion was seamless. Bruno had always been Paul's dog. The badge and the vest were just part of the job.

Over the past several months, Bruno's condition had declined steadily. The joint condition spread. He had difficulty getting up. Stopped eating regularly.

Paul had been managing Bruno's comfort with guidance from Dr. Angela Reese at Riverside for months. Last Tuesday evening, Bruno stopped getting up entirely. Paul called Dr. Reese that night. Wednesday afternoon, Paul drove Bruno to Riverside.

He carried Bruno in from the truck himself. Wouldn't let the techs take him. Paul's partner, Officer Dana Choi, came with him. She filmed quietly on her phone from the corner of the room.

She told us afterward that she asked Paul's permission before she started recording. He nodded.

Paul sat on the exam table with Bruno cradled across his lap and chest. Bruno's head rested against Paul's shoulder. His eyes were half-open. His breathing was slow and easy. Paul bowed his head and pressed his face into Bruno's fur. Bruno lay still for a long moment.

Then slowly — carefully — he raised both front paws. One at a time. And wrapped them around Paul's shoulders. And held on.

Paul made a sound that Dana said she will never forget. Dr. Reese, who was standing nearby preparing, went completely still. Her assistant took a step back. Nobody moved.

Dana told us: 'Bruno could barely lift his head that morning. But he lifted his paws and he held Paul. In that moment, with everything he had left, he held him. I think he was saying thank you. I think he was saying goodbye on his own terms.'

Paul stayed in that position for a long time. The room stayed quiet. Bruno passed away peacefully a short time later, held in Paul's arms.

Paul sent a message to his precinct group chat that evening. It said: 'Bruno is at rest. He was the best partner I ever had. Eight years on the force and two years at home. He worked hard and he loved hard and he went out the same way. Holding on.'

The precinct held a small informal memorial the following morning. Bruno's vest and badge number were framed and hung in the K9 unit hallway.

Some partners carry you through the hardest years of your life. And in the end, if you're very lucky, they find just enough strength to hold you one last time."
