@hoelyglam@inquirerdotnet@MAgerINQ Nag walkout ang minority kasi rinurush ng majority yung remote voting w/o going through the standard process.
Dapat it undergoes a committee pa but that didnโt happen. So the minority resisted to protect Senate rules. Idk what the majorityโs justification for their absence lol
00s - Plunder sa Jueteng
10s - Plunder sa PDAF
20s - Plunder sa Flood Control
Grabe si Jinggoy ano haha from 00s - 20s, may kaso shuta ayaw paawat ni sis
Timing always matters
Sen. @alanpcayetano, and now is NOT the right time...So it's wrong.
Imagine, you want to change rules while one senator is in hidding & one or more senators will be facing arrest warrant. Who's interest are you protecting, the people or someone else ?
@inquirerdotnet While weโre at it, pagtrabahuin rin kaya natin yung mga nasa bilibid? Murderers, thieves, all criminals, let them do their day jobs
Stupid ass senator. โPaglilingkodโ my ass.
@ABSCBNNews While weโre at it, pagtrabahuin rin kaya natin yung mga nasa bilibid? Murderers, thieves, all criminals, let them do their day jobs
Stupid ass senator. โPaglilingkodโ my ass.
@inquirerdotnet Tangina. Wag niyo kaming gawin tanga Cayetano.
Bakit ngayon? Is it necessary? Justify it. Huwag niyong madaliin dahil lang wanted yung isang miyembro sa inyo.
Tangina niyo lahat. If inosente talaga si Sara, pakita niyo ebidensya. Daming drama. Simple lang naman hinihingi.
@PhilippineStar Oh and lest I forget, that senator is wanted by the ICC btw
What a trash opinion piece that misrepresented what happened. I expected more from a reputable media source
@PhilippineStar Isipin mo a senator was absent and part of the majority who were pushing this mode, bakit pinupush?
In a proper democracy, this would have been open for debate as to the necessity of it. Pero hindi.
Kaya nag walkout because the minority could not question their intentions.
I'm loving the sudden surge of support for Sen Risa.
I hope magviral din ulit ang mga nagawa ni Risa for us -- extended maternity leaves, safe spaces act, Alice Guo, exposรฉs on corruption.
@LTeomezorrat itโs funny if the machismo ppl not choosing risa thing is true, kasi parang siya pa nga yung mas may bayag kasya sa majority ng senators lol
out of all the senators, sheโs been one of the most vocal in past natโl issues
never backed down in investigations, not afraid of whoever sheโs speaking to, guo man o quiboloy o even the VP
if anything, sheโs everything what sara is projectingโa strong-willed, principled woman

Sa gitna ng malalim na krisis sa pamamahala, at sa pagod, hirap, at pagkadismaya ng milyun-milyong Pilipino, patuloy tayong naghahanap ng lider na may integridad, kakayahan, at malinaw na paninindigan; isang lider na kayang tumulong sa atin upang ibangon at ayusin ang ating bayan.
Dahil dito, kinikilala ng Akbayan Party ang lumalakas na panawagan para kay Senator Risa Hontiveros bilang kandidato sa pagkapangulo sa 2028, at ang kanyang kahandaang tumindig bilang standard-bearer ng demokratikong oposisyon.

Dahil hindi siya umaatras.
Kasama natin lagi si Risa. Mula sa pagpapalawig ng maternity leave para sa mga working nanay, pagprotekta sa mga pasyente laban sa mga abusadong ospital, hanggang sa pagsusulong ng murang gamot at tunay na universal health care, dala niya ay kalinga, aksyon, at solusyon upang mapabuti ang ating mga buhay.
Hindi siya umaatras para sa mahihina, hindi siya natitinag sa harap ng makapangyarihan, at hindi siya tumitigil hanggaโt may kailangang ipagtanggol.
At tulad niya, tayong ordinaryong mamamayan ay hindi rin umaatras. Sa kabila ng hirap at gulo, hindi tayo sumusuko sa pag-abot ng ating mga pangarap para sa isang mas magandang buhay.
Kaya muli tayong magkaisa at sama-samang umabante.
Dahil ang bansang hindi umaatras ay bansang susulong sa magandang bukas.

IMHO, the Senate 11 is a good example of how coalitions can work. Hindi naman kailangang purely pare-pareho kayo. Kailangan lang na united kayo (fr unlike UNITEAM) to work for the better while also ensuring safe spaces for dialogue to exist.
JOINT STATEMENT ON THE SENATE MINORITY WALKOUT
We strongly condemn what appears to be an attempt to rush a major change in the Senate Rules, especially when several members of the minority still wanted to speak and raise serious questions on the floor.
Bakit kailangang madaliin? Bakit kailangang pigilan ang mga gustong magsalita? Bakit kailangang i-divide ang house kung marami pang senador ang nagtatanong tungkol sa proseso?
Minamadali ba ang rule change na ito dahil gusto nilang maka boto si Senator Bato? At ngayong may mga ulat na may mga majority senators na maaaring arestuhin?
We walked out because what happened on the floor looked less like orderly deliberation. The proposed rule change affects how senators may attend sessions, participate in proceedings and exercise their mandate through remote means, and such a measure should be opened to healthy public debate instead of being rushed by the tyranny of the majority.
We have always welcomed healthy discussions on the floor, but this should mean allowing all members to be heard, not forcing the chamber to move at the speed preferred by the majority.
At the time the motion was taken up, there was no duly constituted Committee on Rules and there was not even an elected Majority Leader who could properly guide a rules amendment through the regular process.
How could there have been any action or discussion before the Committee on Rules when no Committee on Rules has been organized to date?
With due respect, the answer that no Senate rule had been violated does not settle the matter, because the rules cannot be treated as a matter of convenience when the very process for amending them is under serious question.
The timing raises a question that the public deserves to hear debated openly. Kaya pinili naming tumayo at iwan ang majority sa plenary. Kaya kami nagdesisyon to question the quorum and call for adjournment.
If the proposal is truly defensible, then let it pass through the proper route.
We owe it to the people who voted for us to do our mandate. This is why we want more time to discuss this further.
@AsparelaArlene @Joohnn_1998@imtristansicat but yeah, this is exactly why media literacy matters no?
sayang lang kasi andami nang subjects/courses tackling all this pero di pa rin enough eh
@AsparelaArlene @Joohnn_1998@imtristansicat omg thanks!! iโm actually a bit familiar with the fact checks
i was just genuinely curious what they thought happened and their reasoning. not as a gotcha, more like i wanted to understand where the belief was coming from hehe
