Today is the 17th death anniversary of former President Corazon “Cory” Aquino, who served as the 11th president of the Philippines.
Aquino led the 1986 People Power Revolution that toppled Ferdinand Marcos Sr. and his authoritarian rule.
She succumbed to colon cancer on August 1, 2009.

@Raimanfo@lovingcmila Today yeah, but not during her time and prime. Era now is far different than before. Hope you know what I meant? No disrespect to Gaga.
#SONATrivia: In 2010, Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III became the first to do a Sona entirely in the Filipino language—a style he would keep till his last address. #SONA2026
With all due respect to the Senator-Judge at para hindi maligaw ang publiko, ito po ang konteksto at kumpleto na sinabi ko:
“(Ang fishing expedition) ay maaaring sabihin nating nangyari kung only if the party requesting the evidence or documents ay nagbabakasakali lang, baka may makuha tayo dito.”
Linawin ko po: Hindi tayo nagbabakasakali lang. May probable cause o sapat na dahilan na nakita sa mga record ng Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) tungkol sa bilyun-bilyong dumaan sa accounts ng VP at kanyang asawa.
Hiningi natin ang bank records para makita kung tugma ito sa sinasabi ng AMLC reports. Tandaan: Ang bank records ay maaari lang mailabas kapag may utos o subpoena mula sa korte. Ibig sabihin, kung nabuksan ng Kamara ang mismong bank records bago ang trial, paglabag yan sa karapatan at due process ni VP Sara Duterte.
Ngayong may subpoena na para sa bank records ng Bise Presidente, magagamit ito ng magkabilang panig para patunayan ang kanilang kaso.
Sa ganitong paraan, makakapagpasya ang mga Senator-Judges batay sa kabuuan ng ebidensya.
