⚠️ Madam Lowren Legarda, hindi ka lang mali sa legal opinion mo, in ESTOPPEL ka din.
Pitong (7) beses ka naging parte ng session na ang quorum na ginamit ay 12.
You did not object in plenary nuon. You did not file a case in court nuon.
Tapos ngayon ngangawa ka!
😂
Idinaan ng veteran journalist na si Michael Fajatin sa isang X post ang reaksiyon niya sa pagsita ni Senator Alan Peter Cayetano sa mga broadsheet na piniling gawing banner story ang tungkol sa mga nangyari sa Senate session ng 12 senador nitong Hunyo 3, kaysa ang pananatili niya sa puwesto bilang Senate president.
Sa kalagitnaan ng Blue Ribbon Committee hearing kahapon, isa-isang binuklat ni Cayetano at binasa ang front pages ng mga pangunahing broadsheet sa bansa—kabilang ang Manila Bulletin, Philippine Daily Inquirer, Daily Tribune, Manila Times, Manila Standard, at Malaya Business Insight—para ipakitang hindi siya ang nasa banner story ng mga ito.
Pinuri naman ni Cayetano ang The Philippine Star dahil sa headline nitong: “Cayetano: I’m still Senate President.”
Piniling banner story ng karamihan sa nabanggit na broadsheets ang tungkol sa pagkakahalal kay acting Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian at ang pagbabago ng liderato ng bagong majority bloc ng Senado.

NOT FROM MEMBERS OF THE MEDIA
Contrary to Senator Alan Peter Cayetano's claim, it was not members of the media who applauded and cheered for him during his press conference at the Senate on Thursday, but rather his own staff and several guests in attendance.
"First time akong napalakpakan ng media, walang bayad 'yon," he said after claiming that he had managed to unite various political groups, which he alleged are now aligned with the administration.
Cayetano also maintained that he remains Senate president, despite the recognition by Malacañang and the House of Representatives of Senator Win Gatchalian’s leadership as acting Senate president. | via Malou Escudero/Pilipino Star Ngayon
🚨WHAT IS CHINA HIDING AT SCARBOROUGH SHOAL?
For days, questions have been growing over a mysterious object spotted at the entrance of Scarborough Shoal inside the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone.
Now, a second commercial satellite image has reportedly confirmed that the object was present on at least two separate dates. Even more concerning, the imagery appears to show a curved feature stretching across the lagoon entrance—consistent with a floating barrier.
Think about that.
A mysterious object. A possible barrier. An area under effective Chinese control since 2012. And no clear explanation.
This is why many observers warn about China's so-called "salami-slicing" or "cabbage" tactics—small actions taken one piece at a time, each seemingly insignificant on its own, until a new reality is created before the world fully notices.
First, the ships arrive.
Then access becomes restricted.
Then barriers appear.
Then structures emerge.
And suddenly, what was once open becomes controlled.
If there is nothing to hide, why not answer the questions?
🔹 Who placed the object at the entrance of Scarborough Shoal?
🔹 When was it installed?
🔹 What is its purpose?
🔹 Is it temporary or permanent?
🔹 Why is access becoming increasingly restricted?
The issue is bigger than a single object in the water.
It is about whether gradual encroachment becomes accepted as normal.
It is about whether intimidation and control can replace transparency and international law.
And it is about whether Filipinos—and the world—will pay attention before another piece of the puzzle quietly falls into place.
The satellite images have raised questions.
The public deserves answers.
Silence is not transparency.
And unanswered actions in disputed waters only deepen suspicion.
🌊 Scarborough Shoal. Philippine EEZ. The world is watching.

@News5PH hindi utak ng matinong mayor ito. dapat kahihiyan nya bilang punong lungsod at nireresolba sa lebel ng gobyerno. utusan mo ba naman ang mamamayan ng mali kasi punong lungsod sya. ndi dapat ganyan ang ugali ng mayor!
Hindi ka boluntaryong bababa sa pwesto kasi antagal mong inantay yan, di ba? Ginamit at pinapasok mo pa si Bato kahit alam mong may arrest warrant siya para lang siya makaboto at maluklok ka sa pwesto.
Kinain na ng bulok na sistema ang buong pagkatao mo.
YOU ARE IRREDEEMABLE.

CAYETANO: AKALA KO BA GUSTO NIYO KATULAD NI SALONGA, TAÑADA, DEFENSOR-SANTIAGO? THEN HELP US
WATCH: Senator Alan Peter Cayetano lamented the current situation in the Senate, saying lawmakers who choose to stand independently often face intense pressure.
Cayetano urged the public to support their cause if they want leaders in the mold of the late senators Jovito Salonga, Lorenzo Tañada, and Miriam Defensor Santiago.
“Akala ko ba gusto niyo katulad ni Salonga, Tañada, Defensor-Santiago? Then help us,” he said. | @TristanNodalo
