HINDI MEDIA ANG PUMALAKPAK

#PhilstarFactCheck: Mali ang sinabi ni Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano na pinalakpakan daw siya ng media sa kanyang press briefing sa Senado nitong Huwebes, June 4.

NOT FROM MEMBERS OF THE MEDIA

Contrary to Senator Alan Peter Cayetano's claim, it was not members of the media who applauded and cheered for him during his press conference at the Senate on Thursday, but rather his own staff and several guests in attendance.

"First time akong napalakpakan ng media, walang bayad 'yon," he said after claiming that he had managed to unite various political groups, which he alleged are now aligned with the administration.

Cayetano also maintained that he remains Senate president, despite the recognition by Malacañang and the House of Representatives of Senator Win Gatchalian’s leadership as acting Senate president. | via Malou Escudero/Pilipino Star Ngayon

[Win Gatchalian @WinGatchalian74]

The Solid Bloc 11 minority senators were present today for the 5 p.m. resumption of session, ready to work, ready to vote on pending bills and ready to keep the Senate running, but the majority led by SP Cayetano chose not to show up.

They did not even have the courtesy to inform us when they ignored the rules, and could not extend the basic decency of telling the minority that they had no intention of convening.

Let us focus on the work, because the Senate has serious business before it, and if the majority wants to protest, deliver privilege speeches or defend its position, the proper place to do that is on the floor, not by making the chamber stand still.

The Senate should open its doors, call the session to order and return to work, because no Facebook post, no appeal to institutional pride and no political drama can erase the basic duty of senators to show up, follow the law and serve the people.

We call on the Filipino people to watch the Senate closely, because when an institution refuses to work, public vigilance becomes the people’s first line of defense.

Grabe. Ang pinakasukdulan talaga ay yung tangang mayabang.

Maipasok lang ang sariling katwiran, gagamitin na ang batas na parang goma — iuunat, pipilipitin, babaluktutin — para lang mapaboto ang katotong pinaghahanap ng hustisya.

Sorry, patola ako ngayon, kasi hindi ko talaga kayang unawain kung bakit tayo nagbabayad ng buwis para paswelduhin ang mga ganito.

Hindi na nga sumusunod sa batas, ipinagyayabang pa ang kamangmangan. Excuse po ba sila sa Constitution? May special lane ba ang katangahan sa Senado?

Indeed, the punishment of wise men is to be ruled by unwise men. Pero marami sila, kaya “men” na rin. Collective noun na yata ang kabobohan.

At kung maiinis kayo dahil kesyo nagmamarunong ako, i-block n’yo na ako. Walang pilitan dito. Hindi ko obligasyong gawing daycare ang wall ko para sa mga allergic sa common sense.

Hindi tayo uunlad sa ganitong klaseng pag-iisip: yung mali na nga, ipinipilit pa; yung batas na nga, ginagawang suggestion; yung accountability na nga, ginagawang favor sa tropa.

Kaya please, trolls at DDS, huwag muna kayong magtambay sa wall ko. Bad trip ako today. 😡

“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!!!!

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. 👏

[Leila de Lima @manayleila]

Get your facts straight, SP Alan!

Magkaiba kami ni Sen. Bato dela Rosa. Kusa akong humarap at nagpaaresto sa mga arresting authorities noong Feb. 24, 2017.

Hindi ako nagtago, hindi ako nagpakaduwag. Hindi ako nagpakupkop, at lalong hindi ako nagdulot ng gulo sa Senado.

Huwag kayong magpakalat ng fake news para lang pagtakpan at protektahan ang duwag at pugante!

[Karen Davila @iamkarendavila]

Watch @ZyannAmbrosio’s exclusive report. Here, NBI agents were at the GSIS side.

In our interview with OSAA Head Gen Aplasca, he claims there were NBI agents who were at the “edge of senate property” which led them to firing warning shots leading to an exchange.

The CCTV footage will help reveal the truth.

EX-CON-TURNED-SENATOR ROBIN NOW A 'PERSON OF INTEREST' IN BATO'S 'ESCAPE'

: “Yes?”

PAKAHUSAY NG INTERVIEWER DITO HA TALAGANG SUPALPAL SI ALAN PETER CAYETANO EH 😭😭😭

[Jesus Falcis 🇵🇭 @jesusfalcis]

🚨 PCIJ reports that 11 of the 13 Majority Bloc DuDirty Senators have pending criminal or other cases…

…while Tsinator Imee Marcos was held responsible by a Hawaii Court for the murder of Archimedes Trajano and crybaby Robin Padilla was an ex-convict.

DU-DIRTY THIRTEEN! 😂

Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa, who last year declared he was ready to surrender if the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague issues a warrant for his arrest, pleaded to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. for protection against extrajudicial rendition.

Robin Padilla: weak mga kabataan ngayon.

Also Robin Padilla: sinigawan po ako ni Sen. Kiko 😭

[ABC News @ABC]

Surveillance footage captured law enforcement running down hallways as they chased Philippine Senator Ronald dela Rosa inside the Senate building.

The International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant accusing Dela Rosa of crimes against humanity.
