I assure my closeness to the people of the Philippines, struck a few days ago by a powerful earthquake. I pray for the deceased and their families, for the wounded, and for all those suffering because of this disaster.

Ang araw na ito ay paalala na ang kalayaan ay may kaakibat na pananagutan. Tumindig tayo sa ngalan ng dangal, katotohanan, at bayan.

Maligayang Araw ng Kalayaan, Pilipinas! 🇵🇭

BREAKING: DDS CAYETANO breaks record for SHORTEST and WORST ever SENATE leadership tenure!!! 👊👊👊

[raffy magno @raffymagno]

We remain hopeful that there are Senators who will place country above politics and uphold their constitutional duty with integrity and courage.

We remain vigilant because institutions are only as strong as the people who choose to defend them.

⚠️ Can the Solid-12 (with Chiz) legally conduct the session? Yes.

That is because with Jinggoy arrested for Plunder, he is not counted for quorum.

The legal quorum is now 12 out of 23 instead of 24.

Natalo na naman si Alan Peter sa mga beterano like Tito Sen sa rules! 😂

👊

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

Wow! Sana all may choices. 😒🙄

Yung ordinaryong Pilipino, walang option. Kinulong agad dahil napagkamalang nanlilimos.

Pero kapag makapangyarihang opisyal na may kasong plunder at graft, may pa-consultation muna?

Dapat patas ang proseso. Walang special treatment, walang VIP lane, walang batas na para lang sa mahihirap.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

Hindi impressive ang legal background kung ginagamit lang sa pangmamaliit. Mas nakakabahala ang may alam sa batas pero pinipiling baluktutin ito.

[Deo Enalpe 𝕩 @deeoenalpe]

Senator @risahontiveros may not be a lawyer, but she understands her mandate and respects the rules of the Senate.

Meanwhile, some with legal backgrounds use their knowledge not to uphold the rules but to twist policies for political convenience.

You do not need a law degree to understand integrity, accountability, and respect for institutions. ✊🏻

No longer shall they be known simply as the Solid Bloc.

Henceforth, let them be known as The INDOMITABLE ELEVEN

Eleven who would not bend the rules to suit the moment.
Eleven who would not break their resolve &
Eleven who stood their ground when it mattered.

Anim na buwan na hindi nagtrabaho habang sumisweldo. Tapos ngayon naman gustong mag-fulltime na work from home?

Hiyang-hiya naman ang mga minimum wage earners sa Pilipinas sa’yo, Sen!

Taumbayan ang nagpapa-sweldo sainyo. Kahit konting kahihiyan man lang sana.

A CHEAP SHOT

Sen. Marcoleta’s attack on Sen. Risa Hontiveros that she did not know the rules because she is not a lawyer is a cheap shot, an argument from arrogance and credentialism at its worst.

One need not be a lawyer to recognize a legal issue. One need not be a doctor to recognize when a person has fever. And one need not be an engineer to recognize a bridge collapsing.

Sen. Risa Hontiveros may not be a lawyer but dismissing her argument on that basis is an attack on her credentials, not a defense of substance.

In public debate, the question is not who speaks. The question is whether what is being said is true.

If Senator Marcoleta disagreed with Senator Hontiveros, then he should answer her arguments, not her profession.

In the end, the irony was impossible to miss. Sen. Marcoleta was defeated by Sen. Sotto, a non-lawyer but knew the rules better.

That is the problem with credentialism. It confuses titles for wisdom and professions for truth.

[Gnostic Legend @GnosticLegend]

DUTERTE! Pinaka MALAKING SALOT NA DINANAS ng Pilipinas! Tangina nyong mga DDS!

[Jesus Falcis 🇵🇭 @jesusfalcis]

🚨 Ginawang Vice-Chairs ng Senate Blue Ribbon Committee si Marcoleta at Jinggoy, na may plunder and flood control cases.

Ang Chairperson si Pia Cayetano, walang accomplishment nuong 2024 nuong Chair din sya.

Talo pa sya ni Sen. Risa na napakulong si Alice Guo. 👊

[Tristan Louis Sicat @imtristansicat]

THE 11 MINORITY SENATORS SHOULD FILE AN ETHICS COMPLAINT AGAINST IMEE MARCOS.

This blatant act of propaganda should not be tolerated inside a government institution, especially not within the Senate. Hahayaan nalang ba nating maging ganito kababa ang Senado?

DAV 1225 is registered to Senator Robin Padilla.

Robinhood is a principal in obstruction of justice!

Senator @TrillanesSonny please file the case sa ICC. 🙏

[Jesus Falcis 🇵🇭 @jesusfalcis]

⚠️ Now that General Aplasca has been proven to be firing against NO ONE and that the Senate was NOT under attack, Alan Peter Cayetano should resign if he has any delicadeza left in his body.

But of course he won’t.

That’s why he should be ousted. 🤥
