Statement

I accept the wisdom of the Supreme Court to suspend me for one year. All lawyers are under the disciplinary power of the Court and I am no exception.

Back in 2018 to 2019, I was fighting for the life and liberty of my brother. And my family’s safety and reputation.

I felt helpless and powerless except for my small voice on social media. We were nobodies and I was screaming against the void.

If being suspended is the price I have to pay for defending my family, then it is a price I will pay in any lifetime.

I recognize that words, contained in a tweet, have power and my choice of words should have consequences. All lawyers should be held accountable for their words and actions.

That is why I prostrate myself to the Supreme Court for disciplining me and in the same vein, I beg the Honorable Court to resolve the pending disbarment cases of former President Rodrigo Duterte and Vice President Sara Duterte, to show that indeed, no one is above the law.

And to our dear Senator-Judges, if a lawyer like me can be suspended for cursing, then a Vice President like Sara Duterte should likewise be answerable not just for cursing but for threatening the life of the President and the First Lady.

Accountability should apply to all, big or small.

#Accountability

[Dino Singson de Leon @iamdinodeleon]

I don’t always agree with him, but I think @jesusfalcis will be missed by many of us in the legal profession as he serves his suspension.

I know him as a fierce advocate, and I hope he will continue with his political advocacies. I look forward to the day that he is allowed to practice again because he also does a lot of good as a public interest lawyer.

More than a decade after the Paris Agreement, greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, accelerating climate change.  

Humanity still has time to act #NowForClimate and curb these emissions.

[SeaLight @SeaLightFound]

🚨SCARBOROUGH SHOAL UPDATE

🛰️A 2nd commercial satellite image further corroborates the previously reported object near Scarborough Shoal's entrance, and also shows a linear feature across the entrance consistent with a floating barrier.

In our 1 June post below, SeaLight was first to release satellite imagery of the small object at the mouth of Scarborough Shoal referenced by Philippine Defense Secretary Teodoro. At the time, we noted that we had reviewed an earlier commercial image but were unable to share it due to licensing restrictions.

Those restrictions have been resolved, enabling us to release this image captured by @vantortech (via @SkyfiApp) on 27 May 2026 (corrected from 26 May in our original post).

What this image adds:

1) Corroboration across date and provider: a small, bright object visible at the same location. Together with the 28 May @Satellogic image we previously released, this confirms the object was present across at least 27–28 May 2026. (We do NOT yet know from available imagery whether the object remains in place today.)

2) Floating barrier at the lagoon entrance:
the 27 May image shows a curved linear feature spanning the lagoon entrance consistent with a floating barrier, similar to access-control measures previously documented at the shoal.

Since our first post, @TeamAFP's Chief of Staff Gen. Brawner told @navalnewscom's @Frances_Mng that his analysts estimate the object at 6x6 meters, and are still determining whether it is floating or fixed.

Likewise, SeaLight still cannot confirm whether the object is fixed or floating, determine its function or conclusively attribute it to any actor. However, as China has exercised effective control over the shoal since 2012 and has increasingly restricted access to the lagoon entrance since 2024, attribution to any other actor is very unlikely.

SeaLight Director Ray Powell: “The 2002 Declaration on Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea was meant to stop parties from increasing tensions by changing the status quo on contested, uninhabited features. Yet instead of addressing this object directly, China's SCS "think tank" @SCS_PI has dismissed Philippine concerns as ‘imagination and speculation’ and ‘random nonsense.’ But if China truly believes its signed agreements still matter, this is exactly the kind of development it should be willing to clarify openly: who placed this object at Scarborough’s entrance; when was it placed; what is its purpose; and when can we expect its removal?”

⚠️ Whatever Alan Pinocchio Cayetano and DDS bloggers say, talo sila sa Supreme Court who said in Avelino vs. Cuenco (1949) that 12 out of 23 Senators is legal quorum.

The burden is on APC to file a case before the SC where he will most likely lose.

Subukan mo APC! 👊
