‘KINILALA NA PO NATIN ANG LIDERATO NI ACTING SENATE PRESIDENT SHERWIN GATCHALIAN’
Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Undersecretary Claire Castro reiterated that the Palace recognizes the leadership of acting Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian.
“‘Yung internal problems ng Senado dapat sila muna ang mag-sort out, sila ang mag-settle ng anumang kinapapalooban ng Senado,” she said on Thursday.
“As far as the Palace is concerned, kinilala na po natin ang liderato ni acting Senate President Sherwin Gatchalian. Kung anuman po ang ibibigay na mensahe sa ehekutibo ‘yun po ang ating kikilalanin,” Castro added.

Today, I take my oath as Senate President Pro Tempore.
Nagpapasalamat ako sa tiwala at kumpiyansang ipinagkaloob sa akin ng aking mga kasamahan sa Senado.
Buong pagpapakumbaba kong tinatanggap ang responsibilidad na ito. Patuloy tayong magtatrabaho at tutupad sa ating tungkulin para sa sambayanang Pilipino.
With a valid quroum of 12 Senators (Avelino v. Cuenco), we declared all positions, including the position of Senate President, vacant. This motion only requires a simple majority.
Sen. Alan is no longer Senate President. In his stead, the Acting Senate President is Senate President Pro Tempore, Win Gatchalian.
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.
Sen. Erwin Tulfo has strong words for Bato and the rest of Cayetano's slim majority.

“The people are our bosses. The masa, everybody. The street sweeper, the janitor, the security guard etc. are our boss because they elected us. Our powers emanate from the public so we have to respect that.
Kung yung amo namin ay nagtatrabaho, paano naman kaming mga utusan na nakaupo lang at pasarap-sarap? Mag-iinternet lang?
Samantalang 'yung amo namin, kailangan magtiis sa traffic, pumunta sa factory na mainit. Magtatrabaho 'yung construction worker, napaka-init ngayon ng panahon, pumupukpok doon. These are the people paying our salaries, Ms. Karmina, and yet for us in the comforts of our home, airconditioned? We don't need to go to the Senate for session kasi pwede ang teleconferencing, videoconferencing? Kaya nga we objected, nakakahiya!”
The questioning of THE Karmina Constantino and the response of Senator Erwin Tulfo??? LOUDER!!!!
BINANATAN SI MARCOLETA
Muling binanatan ni Sen. Erwin Tulfo ang aniya’y “ad hominem” na pagkuwestiyon ni Sen. Rodante Marcoleta tungkol sa legal background ni Sen. Risa Hontiveros.
"You're attacking the individual, 'yung kaniyang character or what. You should attack 'yung kaniyang issue. 'Wag niyang sasabihin na wala kang legal background," saad ni Sen. Tulfo.
“Sen. Hontiveros has been in the Senate for 12 years,” dagdag pa niya.
AD HOMINEM AT GASLIGHT LANG ANG ALAM MO, RODANTE MARCOLETA! Ayan lang ang kaya mong gawin kasi sign yan ng insecurities at kabobohan mo. 🤬
Kaya kahit mga kasama mo na sa majority, pinatahimik ka pa din! Sorry sa mga kapatid nating INC, eto ba ang binoto nyu? 🙄 Why???
