Only Israel can bomb 4 different countries in the course of 48 hours, namely Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and Egypt, and still be portrayed as the victim in Western media.

Transport strikes are a clear sign of a dilapidated public transport system and the great VP's first course of action is to malign and red-tag jeepney drivers? Must the VP be reminded that jeepney drivers also pay their fair share in the upkeep of her frequent chopper travels?

Interesting exchange during the Senate deliberations for the SUC budget earlier. News reports now talk about Pia Cayetano being irked by the "no face-to-face" policy for some programs. Particularly hit was UP president Danilo Concepcion. Why so? Because of UP's supposed alibis.

Lorraine Badoy, a former Palace official with 150k followers on Facebook and a platform on SMNI red-tagged Judge Marlo Malagar of Manila & said "so if I kill this judge...?" Malagar is the 2nd judge in only a year blatantly red-tagged. What's the @SCPh_PIO going to do?

It is OUTRAGEOUS! We were on our way to visit Leila de Lima on her birthday when our request made weeks ago was just now VERBALLY disapproved. I and my husband, Justice Carpio. Chel Diokno, and others ALL barred. Too much! She’s not convicted, not allowed a phone, and now this!

An NCR minimum wage worker has to work every day for 2,000,000 years to earn what Manny Villar is worth today. Sipag at tiyaga.
