Someone has to be made accountable for Bato’s escape.
No less than the DILG Secretary and PNP Chief entered the senate building last night to secure the senators.
The public was assured last night Bato was in the “5th foor, in his room, resting”. Bato’s lawyer showed a video last night of Bato supposedly in the senate.
The senate building should’ve been secured last night - no one in, no one out.
We need answers. How did Bato escape? Who helped him?

I echo Ramon Tulfo’s call for the following Senators to voluntarily INHIBIT and REFRAIN from participating in any manner during tomorrow’s Blue Ribbon Committee hearing:
Mark Villar
Joel Villanueva
Jinggoy Estrada
Rodante Marcoleta
I will also add that Senators Chiz Escudero and Bong Go should also inhibit because they have flood control contractors as their campaign donors or they are connected to a contractor.
VOLUNTARILY INHIBIT NOW!

HOW THE PEOPLE STOPPED DDS HIJACKING
Chavit Singon, Phillip Salvador, Ferdinand Topacio, Rowena Guanzon, and other anti-Marcos but pro-Duterte personalities…
All of them went to the People Power Monument on EDSA corner White Plains and Ortigas.
All of them went thinking they could join and be welcomed in the biggest anti-corruption protest by the people in years.
All of them left with their heads bowed and egos humiliated.
Chavit Singson was booed, cursed at, and even shouted by the protesters na “hulihin na yan!”
Phillip Salvador was booed, called epal, and even told by some protesters “magbigay ka muna ng sustento!”
Ferdinand Topacio suffered a worse fate - used to getting so much attention, not many cars were stopping or beeping their horns for him.
He also wasn’t welcomed near the People Power Monument and only allowed near Gate 4 of Camp Aguinaldo where protesters knew the DDS were hoping for a coup.
He didn’t stay long in EDSA and left soon after in the morning to go to the Liwasang Bonifacio where 300-hundred strong DDS protesters welcomed him finally.
Rowena Guanzon suffered the worst fate.
She went to the Luneta rally and was noticed a bit by media and photographers but after that, no attention from her fellow protesters and the public at large.
She retreated back to a hotel lobby and got a consuelo de bobo interview by a social media
blogger.
Then, from Luneta she went to the People Power Monument and she wasn’t booed. But she wasn’t also cheered at.
People were civil to her. But no one paid much attention to her. People were avoiding her.
That is a fate worse than being booed.
What’s common among all of them is that they failed to read the room - most if not all of them went to EDSA thinking a “Marcos resign!” call was popular or that a regime change was in the offing.
They thought given EDSA ONE, DOS, and TRES, that the protest in EDSA would mimic rallying cries calling for the incumbent President to step down and/or worse, be ousted by a coup.
But people now know better.
Organizers were clear days before and during the day of the rally - the protest wasn’t JUST anti-Marcos, it was anti-Duterte and anti-corruption.
Progressives and the middle class were already fooled once during EDSA DOS.
Back then, there was a debate whether or not to call for “Resign ALL!” or just “Erap Resign!”.
Since Gloria Arroyo still generally smelled good then, the Erap Resign prevailed.
But many well meaning and smart people already knew GMA was not going to be good.
And they were proven right. And the people who joined EDSA DOS experienced People Power fatigue or regime change fatigue.
They. We. I. Have learned our lesson.
Especially now when the Vice President is obviously an unacceptable replacement even if BBM resigns.
And this is what DDS stooges failed to read and learn from.
They thought they would be welcomed and cheered. They thought they could exploit the people’s anger again.
But people now know better.
Especially when these stooges all have clear political interests and are mere hypocrites in calling for a specific regime change.
Despite the minority of bashers, Vice Ganda is correct about BBM.
We want him to pursue accountability of all corrupt politicians not because we trust him or he is our idol.
But because we pay his salary as President from taxpayers money.
We will not be used by the Marcoses, the Dutertes, Chavit Singson, or anyone else.
We want genuine accountability and then genuine change - spend our taxes correctly so we don’t get flooded and the economy gets better.
Don’t try us, mga ka-DDS.

Talking about nepo babies got me thinking about nepo wives.
While it’s quite disgusting when nepo babies of contractors flaunt their wealth on social media, I have to admit na at the end of the day mga anak sila who didn’t choose their parents - and all parents are generous or want to give the best to their kids.
But nepo wives are different - marrying a politician is a choice. And an elected official is definitely higher on the scales of moral, legal, and ethical culpability as to corruption.
I saw the debates on Twitter and Reddit and those defending Heart Evangelista - that she can finance her own lifestyle.
But that got me thinking and digging up my own memory - parang never ko naalala na Top Individual Taxpayer si Heart.
I double checked the cities where she resides and could be awarded as Top Taxpayer - from Quezon City to Pasig City to Makati City - and wala talaga.
Heart Evangelista has never been recognized as a top taxpayer - and thus it makes no sense how she can afford all of her branded luxury goods… unless of course she has a generous husband.
And there’s nothing wrong with being a generous husband except if you’re Chiz Escudero whose top campaign donor in his 2022 SOCE was a flood control contractor in the person of Lawrence Lubiano of Centerways Construction.
And don’t tell me X deals or brand endorsements lahat ng sinusuot or binibili ni Heart.
I checked that too. And it’s a no.
So I’m back to asking the question - bakit wala sa top taxpayers si Heart Evangelista given her decadent and luxurious lifestyle?
Nagtatanong lang po!
