Yesterday the Upper Chamber was “invaded” by the former president of the republic. Only one consistently and steadfastly stood up to preserve the dignity of the Philippine Senate. She happens to be a woman who answers, “present” during a roll call. Her name: Risa Hontiveros.
'GANITO KA-PALPAK AT PABAYA ANG MARCOS JR ADMIN'
Kabataan Partylist Rep. Raoul Manuel questioned the Marcos administration's relief efforts following ACT-CIS Partylist Rep. Erwin Tulfo's donation of 500 sacks of rice to typhoon victims in Naga and to ex-VP Leni Robredo's Angat Buhay Foundation.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on October 25, Manuel noted that a government official chose to entrust aid to an NGO rather than government agencies, calling it a reflection of what he sees as the administration's shortcomings.
"Magbayanihan pa rin tayo habang nananawagan ng relief at kumpensasyon mula sa gobyerno para sa mga nasalanta," Manuel added.
CAMARINES SUR, kung iboboto n’yo pa ang pamilyang Villafuerte, lulubog at lulubog talaga kayo. Sana naman matuto na kayo ngayon. Kung mananalo pa sila ngayong #halalan2025, sorry pero isa lang ang ibig sabhin, gusto n’yo talagang lumubog. #KristinePH
Tang inang Villafuerte yan lubog na nga sa baha dimo pa binigyan ng dangal. Ginawa mong tinawa sa pera! It only shows na wala kayong contingency plan kaya pera ang suhol

Statement of the Liberal Party
11 July 2024
The Liberal Party of the Philippines vehemently demands the immediate and total ban of Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs) in our country. The continued existence and operations of POGOs have become untenable and unacceptable, posing severe threats to our national security and societal well-being.
Lumilitaw sa isinasagawang Senate investigation na malawak at malalim ang impluwensiya ng mga entidad na ito sa ating pamahalaan. Pinahihina nito ang kakayahan nating pangalagaan ang ating mga komunidad at pamilya, pati na rin ang pagtugon natin sa mga krimen at katiwaliang kaugnay ng mga operasyong ito. Malinaw ang dapat gawin: Patalsikin na dapat sa ating teritoryo ang mga POGO.
We call upon the President to address this urgent matter decisively. The time for ambiguity has passed; it is imperative to take a clear and firm stand against POGOs to safeguard the integrity of our nation and the future of our citizens.
