On Cayetano insisting that the Senate election done by the new Majority isn’t legal, Usec Claire clearly explains why it is constitutional and follows jurisprudence.
The way she explains is so simple, so clear, so logical. Ang galing ni baklaaa
‘KINILALA NA PO NATIN ANG LIDERATO NI ACTING SENATE PRESIDENT SHERWIN GATCHALIAN’
Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Undersecretary Claire Castro reiterated that the Palace recognizes the leadership of acting Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian.
“‘Yung internal problems ng Senado dapat sila muna ang mag-sort out, sila ang mag-settle ng anumang kinapapalooban ng Senado,” she said on Thursday.
“As far as the Palace is concerned, kinilala na po natin ang liderato ni acting Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian. Kung anuman po ang ibibigay na mensahe sa ehekutibo ‘yun po ang ating kikilalanin,” Castro added.

‘KUNG MERON PA SIYANG HIYA’
Halos 400 raliyista ang sumugod sa labas ng Senado para ipanawagan ang pagbibitiw ni Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano.
Bitbit ang mga placard at tarpaulin, iginiit ng mga miyembro ng Sandugo na kung may kaunti pang hiya si Cayetano, bumaba na siya sa pwesto.
Kasabay nito ang pagsaludo nila kay Senador Chiz Escudero na siyang dahilan ng quorum kahapon.
Nananawagan din ang mga tagasuporta ni PBBM ng agarang impeachment trial laban kay VP Sara Duterte, at pag-aresto kay Senador Bato dela Rosa.
Bukod sa paghilera sa southbound ng Diokno Blvd., idinaan ng mga ito sa pag-indak ang kanilang panawagan sa Senado’t suporta sa administrasyon. | via Jecelle Ricafort, DZRH News

SENATE BACK TO WORK FOR THE FILIPINO PEOPLE
We express our deep appreciation and commend the courageous decision of Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero to take the floor today and confront the issues facing the institution. His action sent a clear message: that his commitment to the country, to the Senate, and to the Constitution would prevail above all else.
His presence enabled the Senate to proceed with the discussion of matters that are too important to be left unresolved and too consequential to be set aside.
On the issue of quorum, this is not an uncharted matter. The Supreme Court, in Avelino v. Cuenco, recognized the principle that a quorum of 12 is determined based on the number of members who are legally able to discharge the functions of the Senate.
There is likewise an institutional precedent. In 2015, the Senate recognized a quorum of 12 senators who were within its jurisdiction. The Senate continued to perform its constitutional duties because the work of government could not be placed on hold.
At a time when the nation faces pressing challenges, the Filipino people expect their Senate to work, deliberate, and fulfill its constitutional mandate. The institution cannot remain stalled by disagreements or uncertainty. Our duty is clear: to legislate, provide oversight, and serve the public interest.
The Filipino people deserve a Senate that shows up, does its job, and places public service above politics.
It is time for the Senate to move forward and get back to work for the Filipino people.
