The REAL Blue Ribbon Committee is here

[Thea Tan @imtheatan]

Is this why Senator Loren Legarda is stubbornly clinging to her Senate President Pro Tempore position?

It seems the government is taking her son, Rep. Leandro Leviste, to court over a massive solar project bust, and even seeking an asset freeze for a staggering ₱3.08 billion in damages.

The short and sweet answers of Madam Claire Castro.

The President has really found a gem in you, Undersecretary.

It may be premature to say, but let me be the one— the future Senator will do very well. She will give every Duterte-aligned Senators a rough ride once elected into the chamber.

Nagbabalak ang isang grupo ng mga abogadong magsampa ng reklamo laban kina Sen. Pia Cayetano at Sen. Rodante Marcoleta dahil sa pagpapausad sa pagdinig sa Senado nitong Huwebes, Hunyo 4, sa kabila ng kautusan ng bagong liderato.

OMG lumabas na ang invite list ng Blue Ribbon hearing ni Erwin Tulfo bukas and guess who are invited?

Leila De Lima, Fr. Flavie, Cong. Alvarez and the 18 Maleta Boys!

Face off na ang katotohanan kung honest and matapang ang 18 Marites. 👊

Kaso siempre liar and duwag sila. 😂

For retelling their tale of having delivered billions of pesos in kickbacks from flood control projects to more than a dozen officials – including President Marcos – 18 men claiming to be former soldiers are now facing an avalanche of legal cases. https://t.co/OW6p5cTyep | @onenewsph

The best and most brutally scathing warning yet from Senator “Bossing” Erwin Tulfo, directed towards the pathological liar, Allan Peter Cayetano.
And you can take that to the bank!

“Bibitbitin kita! Kukwelyuhan kita! Papalayasin kita dyan sa floor na yan! Because I am the legitimate Blue Ribbon Chairman!”

“I will have you arrested.. Try me, magpa-hearing ka ng Blue Ribbon uli. I don’t care if you were a Senate President or Speaker of the House, I don’t give a fu..!

The son-of-a-gun Senator Allan Peter Cayetano has been issued a warning. He either will choose to take a shot at it and risk being collared and dragged out of the Senate hall, or chicken out and become a blogger, a senate blogger.

‘MARCOLETA’S STATEMENT UNFAIRLY MALIGNED MEDIA WORKERS WHO RISK INTIMIDATION, HARASSMENT, AND THEIR LIVES’

The members of the Senate media issued a statement to condemn Senator Rodante Marcoleta’s remark calling the press “bayaran” during the Blue Ribbon Committee hearing conducted by Senate President Alan Cayetano’s bloc on Thursday.

“We, the members of the Senate media, condemn in the strongest possible sense the sweeping claim by Sen. Rodante Marcoleta that many members of the mainstream media are nothing more than paid hacks,” the statement read.

Marcoleta made the allegations after citing a sworn statement of 18 former Marines accusing some members of the media of receiving luggage containing cash.

“Public officials, such as Marcoleta, who make serious allegations against journalists have a responsibility to present evidence instead of just relying on inflammatory rhetoric that undermines democratic institutions. Again, the press is not the enemy of any political faction. It is not an extension of any political machinery. Its allegiance must remain solely to the truth and to the public it serves,” the Senate media stressed.

The Integrated Bar of the Philippines says the Senate session last June 3, 2026, when a quorum of 12 was constituted, is lawful and valid.

[Leila de Lima @manayleila]

I have already responded to these blatant lies and filed libel/cyberlibel complaint before the NBI and perjury complaint before the DOJ.

Uulitin ko: Whether sa maleta, sa paper bag o anuman yan, wala akong tinatanggap na pera. Hindi na rin nakapagtataka na nagkakabuhol-buhol ang kwento at paratang sa akin dahil imbento lang ang mga pinagsasabi nila — kasinungalingan na inulit lang sa isang kwestyonableng hearing sa Senado.

There may be three certainties in life: death, taxes, and Cayetano's inability to simply accept defeat.

[Leila de Lima @manayleila]

I refuse to support a law that effectively institutionalizes political dynasties!

I vote NO to House Bill No. 8389 or the “Anti-Political Dynasty Act.”

HB 8389 is not a true or genuine anti-dynasty law, but rather a dynasty legitimization act.

First: The bill has no succession ban. A governor can be succeeded by a spouse, who can be succeeded by a child, who can be succeeded by a sibling – indefinitely, legally, under this bill. 

Second: The bill permits a governor, a mayor, and a Representative from the same family governing the same province simultaneously, as it only prohibits relatives from holding office within the same level of government, not within the same territory. 

Third: The bill permits multiple congressional districts controlled by one family within the same province. Three adjacent districts, three relatives, all voting for the same party line: legal. Exactly as it operates today. Nothing changes.

Fourth: The bill neither covers party-list representatives as protected positions nor references incumbents. Therefore, a senator's son or daughter can be nominated and serve as a party-list representative – perfectly legal under this bill

Fifth: The bill limits the prohibition to relatives within the second degree of consanguinity or affinity, covering spouses, parents, children, and siblings. However, this second-degree prohibition excludes broader kinship networks, such as grandparents, first cousins, uncles, aunts, nieces, and nephews, through which dynastic power is often exercised. Limiting the prohibition to only the second degree narrows the reach of the law and allows extended family networks, which remain close-knit in Philippine culture, to continue operating within the same political sphere.

Sixth: The bill does not address, hence, permits substitution, caretaker designation, and every indirect route to office. The prohibition under this bill covers only direct candidacy, not the back doors.

The Filipino people have been waiting for this law since 1987. Tatlumpu't siyam na taon. 

We can do better than this. We can pass a law worthy of the wait. A law the framers of the 1987 Constitution would recognize as the fulfillment of their mandate, not a betrayal of it.

I vote NO to HB 8389, not because I oppose anti-dynasty legislation. I vote NO precisely because I support it. I refuse to support a law that effectively institutionalizes political dynasties.

The Filipino people deserve better. The Constitution demands better. We can do better.
