“Tayo dapat maging wais tayo sa pagboto. Sana naman bigyan tayo ng hiya. Tayo, bigyan tayo ng hiya kasi sila [mga Senador] hindi ko alam kung may hiya pa ba sila.

Ako hindi talaga pwedeng hindi magsalita kasi nagbabayad tayo ng tax… kaya Senator Migz sana magkaisa kayo diyan kasi para sa lahat ng mga nagbabayad ng tax. Please lang, ibalik niyo ang dignidad sa Senado, maawa kayo sa amin”

Another fun fact:

That was senate session 69 of the 16th congress.

Today’s session is ALSO # 69 of the 20th congress.

#MSNews | Constitution framer Adolf Azcuna believes there is a sufficient quorum in the Senate following the election of Senator Win Gatchalian as acting Senate President today (June 3, 2026).

“12 is quorum of 23 or 22. [Senator Ronald Dela Rosa] Bato and [Senator Jinggoy Estrada] being unable to vote or be present are not counted applying the ruling in Avelino v. Cuenco,” the former Supreme Court (SC) justice told Manila Standard. | via Pot Chavez

Loren Legarda is lying through her teeth and gaslighting everyone.

The New Majority-12 did NOT elect a Senate President.

They declared all positions vacant with a quorum of 12 legally backed up by the Senate Rules, the Constitution, SC jurisprudence, and Senate practice.

Why should Legarda know this?

It’s because in May 2015 when three (3) of their fellow Senators were arrested for plunder and she was abroad on an official trip, they used a quorum of 12 out of 17 available Senators to conduct business.

Guess who was one of the Senators in 2015?

Yep, Loren Legarda. Along with Alan Peter Cayetano and Pia Cayetano. Resibo below. 👇

And not one of them objected or claimed the session was unconstitutional. Not one of them filed a case before the Supreme Court.

You are now in estoppel, Senator Loren.

So no, we won’t be gaslighted. 👊

SOLID BLOC 11: ALAN PETER CAYETANO RESIGN!

What happened today was a clear abandonment of responsibility, a dereliction of duty, and a blatant disregard of the rules that govern this institution, because the Senate cannot be made to stop working simply because its presiding officer refuses to lead.

Under Rule XIV, Sec. 41 of the Rules of the Senate, the Senate President may postpone the holding of the session AFTER consultation with the Majority Leader AND the Minority Leader. That rule was violated. This is not merely a procedural lapse—it is a direct violation of the Rules of the Senate and a serious disrespect for the institution and the Filipino people.

Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano SHOULD RESIGN as he has shown that he cannot function as the leader of the Senate.

Sayang ang ipinapasahod ng taong-bayan kung hindi nagagamit ang oras ng Senado para sa trabaho.

Humigit-kumulang ₱25 milyon ang ginagastos kada araw sa operasyon ng Senado para sa kuryente, utilities, pasahod, at iba pang pangangailangan.

Kapag walang sesyon, walang batas o resolusyong maipapasa. Maaantala rin ang kumpirmasyon ng ating military personnel.

A timely throwback given the Marcoleta–Hontiveros debacle: “Wala ka namang legal background” is neither new nor an effective way to silence courageous and principled leaders into submission.

More than a century ago, at the Tejeros Convention that would shape the first Philippine revolutionary government, Daniel Tirona publicly questioned Andres Bonifacio’s election as Director of the Interior on the ground that Bonifacio was not a lawyer. As if a rigged election (or a lutong macau!) favoring Emilio Aguinaldo was not enough, Tirona still felt compelled to shame and completely marginalize Bonifacio so elite power could fully take over the revolution and displace the more radical Katipunan.

And while Bonifacio’s courage, leadership, and sacrifice continues to inspire Filipinos today, history would remember Tirona unkindly. During the Philippine-American War, he surrendered to American forces— without firing a single shot— despite commanding one of the better-equipped units. He also ended up as a servant of the American officer to whom he had surrendered for a time, cleaning his shoes and serving his meals.

A very different century, but nonetheless a familiar habit for those whose loyalty isn’t to the Filipinos. Then, the shameful cowardice of Tirona is finding powerful patrons in Aguinaldo and then the Americans. Today, some politicians seem to find remarkable comfort carrying water for interests far closer to Beijing and the main in jail in The Hague than to the Philippines.

‘SHROUDS HIMSELF IN DARKNESS’: ATENEO LAW STUDENTS TAKE SWIPE AT CAYETANO

The Ateneo Law School Student Council on May 21 criticized Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano over the Senate’s handling of issues involving Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa and the International Criminal Court.

In a statement, the student council said Cayetano, an Ateneo alumnus, “fell short of the ethical leadership expected of him as an Atenean” and accused the Senate of placing “institutional solidarity at the expense of institutional integrity.”

“There is no expression of the virtue of Lux in Domino when an Atenean senator shrouds himself in darkness,” the Ateneo Law School Student Council said of Sen. Cayetano.

The group also urged the Senate not to become a “sanctuary against accountability,” saying lawmakers should uphold constitutional principles instead of shielding colleagues facing serious allegations.

The student council likewise called on dela Rosa to “cease his evasion of international legal processes” and submit himself to lawful accountability mechanisms.
