‘THE FILIPINO PEOPLE DESERVE A GOVERNMENT FOCUSED ON SOLVING PROBLEMS’
Vice President Sara Duterte said the government has become “more preoccupied with protecting power than serving the people,” citing alleged attempts to silence critics.
“A government that fears dissent is not demonstrating strength. It is revealing insecurity. And that insecurity is reflected in the direction our country is taking today,” Duterte remarked in a video statement Tuesday.
Duterte cited the flood control controversy, her impeachment trial, and the charter change, saying those issues revealed “disturbing realities.”
“The current state of our nation reveals three disturbing realities: first, the effort to divert attention from legitimate questions surrounding the flood control controversy; second, the willingness to disregard constitutional safeguards in pursuit of a politically motivated impeachment; and third, the relentless pursuit of greater political power under the guise of Charter Change,” she claimed.
Duterte formally responded to impeachment articles on Monday, as the Senate is set to begin the trial on July 6, 2026.

Our next Major Update, Destiny 2: Shadow and Order, is undergoing large revisions and will be delayed.
This update is being changed and expanded to include sizable quality-of-life updates and as a result, will also be renamed. This update will now launch on June 9, 2026.

“THERE IS NO QUESTION ABOUT MY READINESS”
Malinaw umano kay Vice President Sara Duterte ang nakasaad sa konstitusyon ng Pilipinas na mandato ng pangalawang pangulo na siya ang papalit kung sakaling mamatay, magkaroon ng permanent disability, matanggal o mag-resign sa katungkulan ang pangulo.

PANAWAGAN NI BATO
Naging emosyonal si Sen. Bato dela Rosa sa kaniyang privilege speech sa Senado ukol sa sitwasyon ni dating pangulong Rodrigo Duterte sa International Criminal Court (ICC) sa The Hague, Netherlands.
Nanawagan ang senador ng suporta para sa interim release o house arrest para kay Duterte.
"Kung talagang gusto nating masiguro na lagi siyang nasa mabuting kalagayan, ang nakikita kong isa sa mga solusyon ay masuportahan ng bulwagang ito ang kaniyang interim release."

JINGGOY KAY MARCOLETA: SINGIT KA KASI NANG SINGIT
Tila bumawi si Sen. Jinggoy Estrada sa mga biro ni Sen. Rodante Marcoleta sa pagdinig ng Senate Blue Ribbon Committee sa maanomalyang flood control projects.
Bago ito ay biniro kasi ni Marcoleta si Estrada ng "safe ka na" nang tanungin ang mga Discaya kung wala bang sangkot na senador sa ilang ghost projects.
