WATCH: Veteran journalist and book author Waldy Carbonell burned Chinese flag in front of the Chinese Embassy on Monday to protest against its "invasion" of the Philippine territory. #NowYouKnow#AtinAngPinas
Excuse me sir. But impeachment is not a criminal offense. Its a constitutional process lodged in Congress. Rebellion, sedition - yun puede pahuli. Yung pagbenta ng Pilipinas sa China, yun din, puede huliin.
Kapag pinupuna si DU30, automatic na dilawan.
Kapag estudyante nagprotesta, automatic komunista.
Kapag hindi sang-ayon sa EJK, automatic adik.
Kapag umalma sa Tsina, automatic gyera.
Walang choices? Puro false binary? Mas madali nga naman ang automatic kaysa gamitin ang isip.
Pilit ninyong ibinababa ang age of criminal liability kasi kahit ang maliliit na batang Pilipino gusto ninyong managot.
Pero itong Tsinang napakalaki ng kasalanan sa bansa, hirap na hirap sa kalooban ninyong panagutin ano po?
Let us not condemn the fishermen in changing tune regarding the Reed Bank incident. Matindi ang pressure sa kanila. Grabeng bantay sa kanila. They are just ordinary fishermen with few options to take. They are actually victimized twice over, by the Chinese & by our own govt
Tigilan nyo na itong #DuterteDuwag ninyo. Ang bumangga sa mga mangingisda ay bapor ng mga adik na binayaran ng mga dilawan. Besides it was an accident. Besides sinungaling yang mga fisherman. So mag-sorry kayo lahat kay Tatay Digong.
MANNY PINOL: The government will not punish the crew of the Vietnam boat despite their poaching activities in Recto Bank.
Biruin n'yo. Nahatulan agad ang sumaklolong Vietnam as poachers, pero ang maysalang Tsina pilit pa sigurong ginagawan ng depensa?!?
Suggesting that the Vietnamese who rescued 22 desperate, shivering Filipino fishermen may have been breaking Filipino laws is about the lowest form of human graciousness imaginable. Horrid. Small of heart. Despicable. Simply ugly. And the Chinese boat that rammed them was legal?
Rep. Zarate is correct, and thanks to him for speaking sense. Obedience is not patriotism, it is rote instruction on steroids. Teach young people how to think critically instead. You know, problem solve rather than blindly following nitwits.
After cracking a bomb joke at Baclaran LRT station, ISANG BABAE ARESTADO.
After cracking a rape joke on PBB, ISANG HOUSEMATE NA-EVICT.
After joking about bombing Lumad schools, killing priests, raping a nun, etc., ISANG PRESIDENTE PINAPURIHAN AT PINALAKPAKAN!
Somebody asks if Imelda Marcos is currently in jail for her convictions. She isn't. She was at the 3rd session of the 17th Congress and was one among those given appreciation for serving as a Representative of a District in Ilocos Norte during the closing ceremonies.
Here is a breakdown of the foreign assistance:
Australia - P1 B

And then two years after the siege...
none return to normal for Marawi 🤬
