Another “sectumsempra” moment @ChelDiokno used Alan Cayetano’s decision/motion during the Corona trial (2013) na argument to support his motion to open Sara’s bank accts, etc.

Kagaya nung ginawa niya, flawlessly, kay J.Bernabe noong Oral Arguments (2021) #ConvictSara

Bakit tayo nag-NO sa Anti-Political Dynasty Bill? Dahil ang totoo, ito ay isang Pro-Dynasty Bill.

Under this measure, one clan can hold positions across multiple levels of government. Therefore, concentration of power still remains in the hands of a few families. Kung sila ang mga nakaupo sa taas, at sila rin ang mga nakaupo sa baba,
pwede pa ring magkampihan, magtulungan, at mag-protektahan.

Pwede pa ring magbaba ng kontrata at proyekto ang isang Senador at isang Congressman para sa kapatid nilang Governor. Pwede pa ring gamitin ng isang Governor ang kapitolyo para harangin at ipitin ang kalaban ng mga anak niyang tumatakbong Mayor sa magkatabing siyudad. At pwede pa ring gamitin ng isang Pangulo ang buong puwersa ng gobyerno para pagtakpan ang mga anomalya ng pinsan niyang Kongresista.

Hindi rin sakop ng panukala ang party-list. Kaya maaari pa ring maging District Representative si mister, habang si misis naman ay nakaupo sa tabi niya bilang Party-list Representative.

Ang tanong: Nasaan ang pagbabago? Hindi nito winawakasan ang paghahari ng mga dinastiya, kundi ginawa pa itong legal at bahagi ng sistema.

12 SENATORS ENOUGH TO CREATE QUORUM - SC RULING

The new Senate majority bloc on Wednesday cited the Supreme Court’s ruling on Avelino v. Cuenco as their legal basis for the leadership revamp in the chamber.

The case involves 12 senators who held a quorum after then Senate President Jose Avelino and nine of his allies walked out of the session and replaced him with Sen. Mariano Jesus Cuenco.

‘NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW’

READ: Lawyer and Professor Mel Sta. Maria outlined ten legal points explaining why senators may be arrested for crimes against humanity even inside the Senate premises, stressing that no law designates the Senate as a safe haven for fugitives, and a senator is only immune from arrest while the Senate is in session and if the alleged crime is punishable by less than six years of imprisonment.

“Unless stopped by the Supreme Court, the enforcement of a valid arrest must proceed. No one is above the law,” Sta. Maria added. | 📷: Sta. Maria/Facebook

Saw this post from Antonette Aquino on Facebook - sharing it here. This is what she said:

No, I did not leave the aircon running 24/7.
My Meralco bill came in at ₱9,791.78. So let me break it down because nobody else will.

Generation charge alone is ₱5,266.66. That’s 54% of my entire bill. Meralco’s actual cut? ₱1,730.98. And that number hasn’t moved since 2022. What keeps going up is everything sitting on top of it.

Here’s what’s actually eating your money:

System Loss — ₱486.83
You are paying for stolen electricity. Illegal connections, meter tampering, jumpers. Republic Act 7832 lets Meralco pass the cost of electricity theft straight to paying customers.

Universal Charges — ₱201.96
Part of this goes toward paying off the National Power Corporation’s debts. Old debts. From decisions made before most of us were even working.

Government Taxes — ₱989.81
The 12% VAT is not just on what you consumed. It’s stacked on top of every other charge, including the subsidies you’re already paying for. So yes, you are paying tax on stolen electricity. Tax on an old government debt. Tax on a subsidy you do not even benefit from.

FiT-All and GEA-All — ₱149.59 combined
Two separate renewable energy levies running at the same time. The second one was quietly added to bills in February 2026. Both government-mandated. Neither one is optional.

FYI..none of this is illegal. It’s all backed by law. But legal and fair are not the same thing.

The middle class does not steal electricity. We do not qualify for lifeline rates. We do not get 4Ps. We just pay full VAT, fund everyone else’s discounts, and absorb costs that should never have been ours to begin with. Every month. Without relief.

What actually needs to change:
1. Reform the generation charge. One line item cannot be more than half your bill and go unchallenged.
2. Stop passing system loss to consumers. Other countries make the utility absorb it. We should demand the same.
3. Move faster on renewables. Lower generation costs long-term. That transition is already overdue.

🚨 FACT CHECK: Claims About Bahrain King Fleeing Are False

The viral post stating that Bahrain’s King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa has fled the country and that the population overthrew a “U.S.-Israel puppet regime” is completely false. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

🌍 The Facts:

1️⃣ King Hamad remains in Bahrain

As of verified reports from credible international news agencies — including Reuters, BBC News, and Al Jazeera — King Hamad is still in Bahrain, performing his official duties.

There have been no reports of a mass uprising or overthrow of the Bahraini government.

2️⃣ No evidence of regime collapse

Bahrain is a stable monarchy with strong security forces. While protests have occurred in the past, there is no credible evidence that the government has been toppled.

Claims linking Bahrain to a “U.S.-Israel puppet regime” are propaganda narratives often used to exaggerate Middle East conflicts.

3️⃣ Trump’s military operations are ongoing, not lost

Viral claims that “Trump is losing this war” are misleading. While conflicts with Iran and regional tensions are escalating, there is no evidence of a decisive defeat in Bahrain or any other Gulf state.

⚠️ Why these rumors spread:

Mislabeling routine security or political statements as “regime collapse”

Edited or misleading videos and images

Social media posts designed to create panic or exaggerate U.S. losses

✅ Bottom line:

King Hamad has not fled Bahrain.

There is no overthrow of the government.

Claims of Trump “losing this war” in Bahrain are propaganda and false.
