🔥 The Height of Insensitivity

While Filipinos endure the worst healthcare system in Southeast Asia, our leaders indulge in junkets and business-class upgrades.

• Guarantee letters demanded from poor patients overstaying in hospitals.
• PhilHealth asking ₱300 billion after its GAA budget was wiped out in 5 months due to defunding.
• Ghost hospitals and overcrowded wards.
• Millions worth of expired drugs exposed by COA.
• A $10 million donation to WHO — when Singapore gave only $100,000.
• Several Ombudsman cases already hounding Herbosa.

And yet, Health Undersecretary Albert Domingo flew business class to Switzerland courtesy of Secretary Herbosa, while 13 other DOH officials joined the junket.

This is not leadership. This is betrayal.

That’s why I filed a case at the Ombudsman against Herbosa, Recto, and other past and present Cabinet members for plunder and technical malversation.

Public office is a public trust. We will not be silent while the people suffer.

WHAT A MESS! Where else can we find a Senate President who boycotts the regular sessions of a chamber which he is supposed to preside, then delivers speeches on Facebook instead of the Senate floor before his peers so we can interpellate him?

[PING LACSON @iampinglacson]

Senate minority walkout: we demonstrated how to score a victory by retreating. They may have superior numbers but we have the rules on our side.

[PING LACSON @iampinglacson]

In a condescending tone, a colleague, who is a lawyer took issue with Sen Hontiveros’ lack of “legal background”. I have a simple message — it’s the RULES stupid!

Paano mo ba naman kukumustahin ang mga masasayang nagkakainan, nagkakape at naka FB live pa para pagbintangan ang minority bloc na may alam daw sa putukan ng baril sa Senado?

Quote of the day: “Masahol pa kay Hudas ang maghuhudas sa amin”. Depending on reason or motive, this may apply to all others - past, present and future. Reax ng ilang kasama nila - Oh, s…t?^!#… Ouch!!!

🇵🇭 Sen. Dela Rosa, fmr National Police Chief of the Philippines during Duterte's drug war, is using the legislature as a shield after being wanted by the ICC for crimes against humanity.

That's how impunity works; rather than hide, it runs for office.

Let's be honest. Alan Peter Cayetano should be held accountable for Bato's escape. He should be included in the investigation.

Reminder that alan peter can lie with a straight face while quoting bibles verses on the side.

The moringa tree, known as the “miracle tree”, is one of the most nutrient-dense plants on the planet and is prized for its healing qualities. It also has another huge benefit, according to new research: it’s excellent at removing microplastics from water. https://t.co/7brn5FoLIA

TRILLANES VINDICATED?

After years of criticizing the Dutertes, it appears former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV finally got vindicated as the Anti-Money Laundering Council confirms the existence of several financial transactions made by Vice President Sara Duterte, which were mentioned in his sworn affidavit.

During the impeachment hearing against Duterte, Mamamayang Liberal party-list Rep. Leila de Lima randomly picked 18 financial transactions listed in Trillanes’ annexes and asked AMLC to check if this was part of their investigation.

Eventually, 18 out of 18 transactions matched AMLC's records.

“Do you confirm that, a total of 18 transactions?” Batangas Rep. Gerville Luistro asked.

“We informed (the committee) earlier that there are 18 transactions mentioned, that what we mentioned are existing in our report,” Buenaventura replied. | @GabrielLaluINQ

Disaster teams should now prep for typhoon + fuel crisis scenarios

Thanks to inaction around climate, corruption, poverty & geopolitical crises, each hazard will now likely dovetail with another: complex disasters.
