Mr. Chairman, di po dapat pwersahin si Manny Mogato ang na i-reveal ang sources nya. Instead, force authorities to do their jobs and investigate and prosecute those behind Duterte’s bloody drug war. #FactsFirst #TruthBombs

Timestamp 13:42. Laughing has been a consistent BBM answer to questions on his father’s corruption and rights violations, as if these questions are absurd. Asking him “why that’s funny?” is critical and telling. Full interview: youtu.be/nK38S3jo5XQ?si=8W1Q…

🚨As I reported previously (xitter.cf/GordianKnotRay/status/…), 🇵🇭#Philippine Coast Guard ship BRP Teresa Magbanua was in the Scarborough Shoal area Friday, when both it & 🇨🇳#China Coast Guard 3105 went AIS-dark. Neither has been detectable since, but now the CCG reports it "drove away" a PCG ship on Monday. The most likely explanation is that the BRP Teresa Magbanua conducted a 3-day presence patrol in the vicinity of Scarborough Shoal over the weekend and has since departed. The CCG language that it "drove away" a PCG ship is typical PRC bluster used anytime a rival vessel leaves an area where they don't want it to be.
China Coast Guard on Monday drove away a Philippine Coast Guard vessel trespassing into waters off China's Huangyan Dao according to the law.

I have done a lot of media since this past weekend's dramatics in the #SouthChinaSea, but this one with @rommelflopez and @reutersph was my favorite. I always enjoy doing podcasts--they are so much more relaxed and conversational than other formats. 🇵🇭#Philippines 🇨🇳#China

We have submitted to the ICC this video wherein Duterte publicly admitted that he used the Confidential/Intelligence funds to conduct EJKs on his constituents in Davao city when he was still a mayor. This is truly an open-and-shut case.

#TheChiefs| Incoming senator Raffy Tulfo plans to decriminalize libel as one of his priorities. He says that being a member of the majority will make it easier to convince his colleagues to decriminalize libel, a case commonly used by politicians vs media. youtu.be/s5SPUhQNPl4
