TODAY, WE CHEER FOR THE MINORITY 🥹🫶
SENATE BACK TO WORK FOR THE FILIPINO PEOPLE
We express our deep appreciation and commend the courageous decision of Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero to take the floor today and confront the issues facing the institution. His action sent a clear message: that his commitment to the country, to the Senate, and to the Constitution would prevail above all else.
His presence enabled the Senate to proceed with the discussion of matters that are too important to be left unresolved and too consequential to be set aside.
On the issue of quorum, this is not an uncharted matter. The Supreme Court, in Avelino v. Cuenco, recognized the principle that a quorum of 12 is determined based on the number of members who are legally able to discharge the functions of the Senate.
There is likewise an institutional precedent. In 2015, the Senate recognized a quorum of 12 senators who were within its jurisdiction. The Senate continued to perform its constitutional duties because the work of government could not be placed on hold.
At a time when the nation faces pressing challenges, the Filipino people expect their Senate to work, deliberate, and fulfill its constitutional mandate. The institution cannot remain stalled by disagreements or uncertainty. Our duty is clear: to legislate, provide oversight, and serve the public interest.
The Filipino people deserve a Senate that shows up, does its job, and places public service above politics.
It is time for the Senate to move forward and get back to work for the Filipino people.
🐈 i’ve just never thought about a solo career, even once
👤 really? not at all?
🐈 yeah, seriously. because we started this together…
👤 as a team?

Ladies and Gentlemen,This perfectly sums up the real story of what went down two months ago. The members couldn’t have made it any clearer than this 🤷🏻♀️
🐈 i’ve just never thought about a solo career, even once.
🐈: the team is the most important. i mean… jungwon without ENHYPEN would be nothing.
🐈: my members are a huge part of me.
Youngji asked how’s the contract renewal situation going
Jungwon: When we won the grand prize last year, Super Junior told us right before our stage, that at first, awards seem important but lasting a long time as a team is more important.
Jungwon: These days, thinking about it now, I think they’re right. Just lasting a long time in the end? The team is the most important.
Jungwon: I mean.. JUNGWON without ENHYPEN would be nothing. I only made it this far because of ENHYPEN. Only those with a team would get this.
OH JUNGWON YOU ARE THE BEST!! ❤️🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
🐈 and honestly, one of the reasons i've kept going as an idol is because i just loved the people i worked with
🩷 the people you work with?
🐈 yeah
🐈 like the hyungs, the guys i practiced with, and the rookie development team, i just really liked them.
🐈 because of that i always try to take care of my people, us succeeding together is me succeeding personally.
🐈 in a way some might say it's fake
🩷 no, not at all. i don't think that
🐈 i've just never thought about a solo career even once
🩷 really? not at all?
🐈 yeah. seriously.
🐈 because we started this together
🩷 as a team?
🐈 yeah, i'm being completely sincere
Alam mong sobrang sadsad ng imahe ng Senate majority ngayon kasi even si Zubiri na kilalang pro-Duterte noon at balimbing eh nagtunog may sense sa speech niya and tama lahat ng sinabi.
Hindi makuha-kuha nina Imee at Cayetano ang sentiments ng public so nag-resort na sa outright propaganda na pinalabas mismo sa plenary.
ang nakakainis kung siguro ay ordinaryong pilipino ito hindi ganito ang magiging trato nila. na parang pinoprotektahan pa natin ang may sala? napaka-unfair. kung talagang wala kang kasalanan Bato Dela Rosa sumuko ka na at harapin mo ang kaso TANGINA MO KA
may all journalists risking their lives to witness this utter clownery be protected from all harm. may the truth prevail.
we do not deserve this government at all.
TW // gunshots, violence
I MEAN??? Iivestream pa lang ‘to what more yung mga andun sa senado tangina mo bato sobrang lala nito
prayers for the safety of our journalists, reporters, media staff and innocent people 🙏
