“Scripted?” Senator Antonio Trillanes allegedly rehearsing his statements against President Duterte

Senator Antonio Trillanes IV has been known for his fierce statements in his press conferences against President Rodrigo Duterte.

It seems that the opposition Senator is well-prepared during his appearance in public as he was videoed while trying to rehearse his statements before a press conference.

Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte posted a video of Senator Trillanes allegedly being given a bit of advice by some media personnel during his speech against the President.

“Ano ayusin natin?” Trillanes asked the press.

When the media told Trillanes that there’s something wrong in what he said, the Senator asked the press to repeat the recording.

“Take two, take two, with feelings,” he added.

Of course, the Davao City Mayor who challenged Senator Trillanes in a word war several days ago made a sarcastic message against the fiercest critic of her father.

“Take 2 kasi hindi narecord ang script ko. Wala ako talent fee kung hindi ako sumunod sa script. And oh, by the way, I’m running under the Magdalo partylist. And wala ako time kung hindi ako bayaran para sa presscon ko.” Inday Sara said in her Facebook post.

Senator Trillanes last week released a chain of criticisms against President Rodrigo Duterte and his family.

But the Presidential family, including Inday Sara and Pulong Duterte didn’t show that they’re afraid with the accusations of the opposition senator and they posted several social media messages against Trillanes to convince the people that he was lying.

List of Barangays in Metro Manila and nearby province that possibly be hit by the the “Big One” earthquake

While everyone is afraid of the possibility that a magnitude 7.2 earthquake will hit Metro Manila in the future because of the West Valley fault, Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) released the list of places that could be affected by the said natural phenomenon.

In 2016, PHIVOCS warned the residents of Metro Manila to be ready in case that the West Valley fault started to move that might cause a big earthquake called the “big one”.

PHIVOCS predicted that “Big One” could affect millions of residents in Metro Manila and near provinces.

The West Valley Fault according to Philvocs is moving every 400-600 years and the last time it moved was recorded on 1658 or 357 years ago.

According to a study, the rehabilitation will cost P1.8 to P2.3 trillion.

However, the agency clarified that no technology in the world can predict an earthquake.

“There is no reliable technology in the world that can confidently predict the date, time and location of large earthquakes. What we do is prepare earthquake scenarios of hazards and impacts to be used as a guide for mitigation, preparedness, and response,” Phivolcs said.

Here is the list of the Barangays that located near the fault:

Duterte orders SAF to disperse Kadamay members: Kung kailangan pumatay kayo para i-implement ang legal na regulasyon, gawin ninyo

President Rodrigo Duterte was angered by the new occupation made by urban-poor group Kadamay in the housing units for uniformed personnel in Rodriguez, Rizal this week.

If Duterte became soft to the members of Kadamay before after they occupied some housing units in Pandi, now the President gave an ultimatum to them that if they would not stop capturing houses made for soldiers and cops, they might face a violent dispersal.

“I will give you until noon tomorrow, umalis kayo (leave) and I will order the Special Action Force (SAF) to go in,” Duterte said to Kadamay during his speech yesterday.

The President said that he would not hesitate to kill the members of the urban-poor group if that’s the only choice to disperse them.

““Sabi ko sa pulis kunin ninyo uli. Kung gusto ninyo ng away sabihin ko sa pulis, bigyan mo ng away, kung magkamatayan, ‘wag kayo mauna pero kung kailangan pumatay kayo para i-implement ang legal na regulasyon, gawin ninyo,” Duterte said during his speech.

He also said that he does not care how many members of Kadamay would be killed and he only wanted to maintain peace and order in the vicinity of the government housing units.

“Mamatayan? Lima, anim, pito, wala kong pakialam,” he said.

In his ultimatum, he gave the members of Kadamay to vacate the housing projects until 12 noon, June 15.

“Umalis kayo by 12 [noon tomorrow]. Pag hindi, sabihin ko ang police, with a riot, back-upan ng SAF. Makamali kayo mag-gamit ng armas, kung mamatay kayo, ‘yun ang dapat para sa lahat,” he said.

Duterte also expressed his anger to the members of the left where Kadamay belongs because they’re burning an effigy of the Presidente during their rallies, but seeking help to the government at the same time.

“Iniihian niyo yung mukha ko tapos sinusunog niyo yung [mukha ko] ngayon hihingi kayo ng tulong? P***** *** *** problema niyo na yan,” he said.

In June 13, 500 members of Kadamay attempted to occupy some housing units built for uniformed personnel in Rizal.

Later on, some Kadamay members have voluntarily retreated from occupying the vacant houses.

Some of them thought that the housing units were already awarded to them by the Rodriguez Local Government Unit, however, when they arrived they realized that they’re only going to occupy the houses that they don’t really own.

Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte gives the definition of “Yellowtard”

Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte has a new post to annoy the members of the opposition which called by their critics as “Yellowtard”.

People started to call the supporters of the Liberal Party as yellowtard during the Aquino administration and this word has been used until now by the followers of the government.

Now, the presidential daughter itself, who declared a word war against Senator Antonio Trillanes IV yesterday gave her own definition of yellowtard.

According to Inday Sara, yellowtard means:

– noun
a person infected with yellow fever
a person who is liberal
someone who has an immaculate heart; spotless; clean< a person with incorruptible integrity - Adjective conforming to moral and ethical principles chaste perfect holy Synonyms: honest, infallible, virtuous, intelligent, faultless, decent, righteous, moral, squeaky clean, clever, uncontaminated, saint, sexy

In addition to her post, she even urged the netizens to vote Senator Trillanes and his friends in the upcoming senatorial elections in 2019.

“Please vote for Trillanes under the Magdalo Partylist and his yellow friends. They need to survive because they are perfect and perfect is the way to go.” Inday Sara said in her Facebook post.

At first, you might say that Inday Sara Duterte is praising the Liberal Party and the other opposition groups. However, the Davao City Mayor is known for being sarcastic to her enemies.

Several netizens also quickly understood that Inday Sara Duterte didn’t jump ship to LP and only trying to annoy the opposition by her sarcasm.

“Most so-called educated people in this country cannot distinguish sarcasm from reality. That is the reason why they couldn’t get the sarcasm being expressed by the President. Let us all recognize that Bisayas have a different way of expressing realities than Tagalogs.” Netizen Lawrence See said after reading Inday Sara’s post.

“Sarcasm at its best..” Doc Yoj said

As of writing the post of Inday Sara quickly gained thousands of reactions and shares from her fans.

Yesterday, Inday Sara slammed Senator Trillanes for claiming that President Rodrigo Duterte might urge her to run for Presidency to hold onto power.

The Senator quickly backed out in exchanging words with Inday Sara, saying that he doesn’t have time to quarrel with the presidential daughter.

In response, the tough Mayor called Trillanes “coward” for not facing her.

Inday Sara calls Trillanes “coward”: Hindi ko alam kung bakit ka naging sundalo

Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte said that Senator Antonio Trillanes IV is a “coward” for quickly trying to end the word war between him and the presidential daughter.

Trillanes expressed his intention to avoid exchanging blows with Inday Sara after the latter posted a lengthy post on Facebook, warning the Senator that they might spend billions of pesos if ever that he continue mentioning the Davao City mayor in his speeches.

“Hindi ko na lang siguro papatulan ‘yan. I don’t have time for that,” Trillanes told reporters.

In response, Inday Sara posted another social media message to Trillanes, saying that the Senator might be coward for not answering her questions.

“May time ka magpresscon pero wala ka na time kapag sinagot ka na.” Inday Sara wrote in her latest Facebook post.

“Hindi ako naniniwala dati sa sinasabi nila pero paniwala na ako, you are a coward.” she added.

She’s also wondering how Trillanes became a soldier and a Senator, because he’s not courageous enough to face her.

“I do not know why you became a soldier and a Senator. Such a disgrace.” she said.

Yesterday, Trillanes claimed that President Rodrigo Duterte might urge his daughter, Inday Sara to run for the presidency to hold on to power.

“‘Pag di natuloy ‘yan, wala na siyang magagawa [kundi] option C niya ay itutulak niya si Sara Duterte bilang pangulo sa 2022, pero ang unang hakbang niyan ay itulak siya para senador sa 2019,” Trillanes said at the general assembly of opposition coalition Tindig Pilipinas.

Inday Sara denied the claims of Trillanes, saying that she would give her slot to the senatorial bets of the opposition.

However, she warned Senator Trillanes not to mention her name again or else, “Trillanes and his friends” might spend billions of pesos in the 2022 elections, a sign that Inday Sara might run as a replacement for her father to give a hard time to the opposition to gain power.

Inday Sara warns Trillanes in her open letter: Leave me in peace in Davao or else you and your friends will spend billions in 2022 elections

Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte slammed Senator Antonio Trillanes IV for claiming that President Rodrigo Duterte is pushing her to run for the presidency in 2022.

Yesterday, according to the news reports, Trillanes said that the only choice of President Rodrigo Duterte to maintain his power is to let his daughter Inday Sara replace him in Malacanang.

‘Pag di natuloy ‘yan, wala na siyang magagawa [kundi] option C niya ay itutulak niya si Sara Duterte bilang pangulo sa 2022, pero ang unang hakbang niyan ay itulak siya para senador sa 2019,” Trillanes said at the general assembly of opposition coalition Tindig Pilipinas.

However, Inday Sara denied the claims of Senator Trillanes and warned him to leave her alone or else, the Magdalo politician might have a difficult time in his future political plans.

She mentioned former House Speaker Prospero Nograles as the last politician who spoke against her and she said that he became “billion pesos poorer” after he lost an election against her.

“LEAVE ME ALONE, Senator Trillanes. The last time a person irked me, I made sure to make it difficult for him to bring me down and Speaker Boy Nograles lost that election and was a billion pesos poorer.” Inday Sara said in her Facebook post.

“Like Speaker Alvarez, my advice to you is not to think of me, speak of my name, not even a whisper of Inday Sara from your ugly lips. she added.

Inday Sara said that if Trillanes would not stop in speaking about her, the opposition which the senator belongs might also spend billions of pesos in the 2022 Presidential elections.

“Leave me in peace in Davao City or else you and your friends will spend more than a billion in the 2022 Presidential elections just to make me insignificant,” she told Trillanes.

The Davao City Mayor didn’t specify what she meant; however, several netizens guessed that Inday Sara could run for President to give the opposition a hard time to gain power.

Inday Sara also denied again that she’s eyeing for a senatorial seat in the next year’s election.

“Let me repeat, do not bother me and my slot will be available for a yellow Senator for the 2019 elections,” she said.

In the last part of her message to Trillanes, she described herself as worst than her father because if President Duterte wants the Magdalo senator to be shot, she might prefer the Senator to be alive and suffer.

“President Duterte imagines you will be shot, on the other hand, I will make sure you are alive and in pain.” she said.

” I have been described as heartless by my mother, please do not anger me so that you may remain relevant for the future generation. And you should listen to my mother. she added.

This is not the first time that Inday Sara criticized Senator Trillanes.

In February, the Davao City Mayor said that Trillanes might be “hooked on something” that made him obsessed with President Duterte.

“I am starting to believe the rumors that Trillanes is hooked on something that must have disrupted his sanity, destroyed his dreams, and triggered his obsession with President Duterte.” Inday Sara said in her interview.

LOOK: Leni Robredo soaks wet in rain as she leads Independence Day rites at Luneta

It seems that Vice President Leni Robredo didn’t mind the bad weather and still pursued to pay respect to the monument of Dr. Jose Rizal at Luneta on the 120th Independence Day Celebration yesterday.

The photos from the Office of the Vice President showed Robredo saluting to the statue of the Filipino hero and despite the rain, she didn’t use an umbrella during the event.

In her speech, she hoped that every Filipino people would continue and not waste what the national heroes did for the country.

“Sa pagdiriwang natin ng kalayaan sa araw na ito, nawa’y magkaroon ng panibagong lakas ang bawat isa sa atin na isabuhay ang diwa ng ipinaglaban ng ating mga bayani— ang pag-aasam sa at pagtataguyod ng isang bansang tunay na nagpapalakas sa kalayaan ng bawat Pilipino,” she said.

Kris Aquino claims that Mocha is working with someone to destroy her family: “Sino ba ang pinaka makikinabang kung bastusin ang inambag ni Cory & Ninoy Aquino”

Kris Aquino officially ended her criticisms against Presidential Communications Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson after she realized something, that someone might be ordering the blogger-public official to attack her.

In her Instagram post, yesterday, Aquino said that there’s a “mastermind” that might doing a demolition job against her family, but she ensured that she’s not referring to President Rodrigo Duterte.

NO- i am not referring to PRRD. #respect Walang plus points kay Presidente kung sirain nya ang alaala ng mga magulang ko… Sino ba ang pinaka makikinabang kung bastusin ang inambag ni Cory & Ninoy Aquino para sa demokrasya ng Pilipinas? Syempre yung nagnakaw nun,” Aquino said.

i’m sorry nagalit ako sa “nagtrabaho lang.” she added.

She also believes that Mocha does not have any time to look for the high-resolution footage of the Ninoy Aquino assassination which the blogger featured.

Mocha posted the video featuring President Rodrigo Duterte and Ninoy Aquino during her visit to South Korea, so Kris believes that someone might only pass the video to her to be posted on Facebook.

Nakalimutan nung #girlboss na may sariling production company na matagal mag edit, especially when materials you’re working with have to be digitally remastered to become high resolution.” Aquino said.

From Korea paano ka naman magkaka time na maghalungkat ng footage ng tatay ko- na mismong Aquino library namin sa Tarlac hindi kumpleto ang videos from August 21, 1983?” she added.

Kris said that Mocha and she are both “endorsing” products, but she didn’t specify if she’s referring to a person.

She claimed that someone is paying to Mocha’s page editor and writers to destroy the image of the Aquinos.

Tama kang wag mag sorry sa kin… Hindi ikaw ang MASTERMIND. Simple TRUTH- we both “endorse” products. Simple logic- aawayin ko ba si tita Susan Roces dahil Ariel ako & Champion sya?” Aquino said.

And you weren’t deserving of the hatred from my fans & supporters. Yung nagbabayad sa editors & writers mo ang dapat awayin at halukayin ang nakaraan, gawan ng memes at murahin– not you…” she added.

Kris didn’t disclose who’s the mastermind that she’s referring to in her post, but several netizens speculated that she’s mentioning to the Marcoses, the Aquino’s mortal political enemy.

 

Humility is VERY HARD for me… i am loving, generous, & hard working. But in my world to WIN- you need to 100% believe in yourself. Kailangan magtiwala ka ng bongga sa sarili para pagkatiwalaan ka… i went to the Feast of the Sacred Heart Mass Friday night- my mom was a devotee, 1 of her last gifts for me was a Sacred Heart of Jesus. I spent time thinking- ma pa-proud ba ang Mom & Dad na pinagLABAN ko sila? YES they would. But my Mom would’ve scolded me sa pag “clapback” & for using my fluency in written English. My dad would have loved the feistiness BUT mapagsasabihan ako- “yung binansagan ng Mommy mo na female Ninoy hindi si Asec Mocha ang aawayin.” May dugtong yan na “beautiful (that was his pet name for me) yung female version ko HIGANTE ang aawayin, hindi ang sundalo lang nya.” NO- i am not referring to PRRD. #respect❤ Walang plus points kay Presidente kung sirain nya ang alaala ng mga magulang ko… Sino ba ang pinaka makikinabang kung bastusin ang inambag ni Cory & Ninoy Aquino para sa demokrasya ng ??? Siempre yung nagnakaw nun… i’m sorry nagalit ako sa “nagtrabaho lang.” Nakalimutan nung #girlboss na may sariling production company na matagal mag edit, especially when materials you’re working with have to be digitally remastered to become high resolution. From Korea paano ka naman magkaka time na maghalungkat ng footage ng tatay ko- na mismong Aquino library namin sa Tarlac hindi kumpleto ang videos from August 21, 1983? Tama kang wag mag sorry sa kin… Hindi ikaw ang MASTERMIND. Simple TRUTH- we both “endorse” products. Simple logic- aawayin ko ba si tita Susan Roces dahil Ariel ako & Champion sya? And you weren’t deserving of the hatred from my fans & supporters. Yung nagbabayad sa editors & writers mo ang dapat awayin at halukayin ang nakaraan, gawan ng memes at murahin- not you… i live in the territory of politically motivated hate because my last name is AQUINO- it’s part of my DNA & identity. WE ARE PART OF HISTORY. To @mochauson, I UNDERSTAND YOU… if you hit my parents again, i know TRABAHO LANG. P.S. when we lived in Boston, Baskin Robbins JAMOCA was my dad’s favorite ice cream flavor. #lovelovelove #nextchapterplease ??????

A post shared by KRIS (@krisaquino) on

Last week, the social media blazed after Kris Aquino slammed Mocha for using her father Ninoy Aquino to defend President Duterte’s kissing controversy in South Korea.

The issue even reached the national headlines and resulted to a debate between the supporters of Uson and Aquino.

President Rodrigo Duterte also apologized to Kris for what happened, however, he didn’t order Mocha to apologize because he believes in her right to freedom of expression.

Netizens have been saddened by the arrest of an alleged illegal drug dealer in Cebu City Yesterday after they saw that the suspect is still young and beautiful.

According to the news report of SuperBalita Cebu, the drug dealer, identified as Riza Mae Cabigon, 18, a student of a University in Cebu City has been arrested by the authorities in a buy-bust operation.

Some even defended the drug suspect, saying that she deserved a second chance.

” Sometimes people has gotta do what they gotta do in order to live and in order to survive. We don’t know what battle she is fighting, we don’t know what she is going through and we don’t know the exact reason on why she needs immediate money.” Netizen Honey Angelu Maylan Mirafuentes said.

“But one thing is for sure, we shouldn’t judge her for her choices after all justice was already served so instead of shaming her, jumping into conclusions that she’s selling drugs to live an extravagant life, why don’t you just pray for her and wish for her own betterment? Everybody deserves a second chance and it is not too late for her to change. And for those people who are pushing her and telling her that she could’ve sold herself, SHAME ON ALL OF YOU.” she added.

However, some netizen also slammed the people for expressing their sympathy to the drug dealer saying that the people should not give their sympathy to a criminal despite it good looks.

“Double standars kayo, nakakahiya basta gwapo o maganda, kung ano man ang problema o sitwasyon, he law is the law and no one should be above it., we all have issues and problems but hindi tayo pumasok sa pagbebenta ng droga. be a good citizen. Better safe than sorry.” Netizen Ian Javier said.

“Govt really needs a strong influence on the youth, better guidance and leadership and proper rehab not just for users but for pushers.” he added.

The suspect is not detained at the Cebu City Police precinct and the authorities are now preparing to file charges against her.

MMDA gumagastos ng isang bilyong piso kada taon para malinis ang maduduming estero sa Metro Manila

The garbage problem in Metro Manila has resulted in a billion of pesos expenses to the government as they need to clean the waterway to avoid the future disaster like what happened in 2009 during the typhoon Ondoy.

According to the article of ABS-CBN news, Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) spent P1-B just to maintain the cleanliness of the rivers and drainage along the National Capital Region.

“Ang budget sa paglilinis ng estero, approximately, [pati] sa flood control nasa P1 billion… Ang mandato ngayon, cleaning lang dahil hindi hawak ng MMDA ang relocation ng mga informal settlers,”  MMDA general manager Jojo Garcia said during the interview.

Some people believe that even the government workers clean the drainage every day, the garbage problem in the Philippines would not be solved because of the undisciplined informal settlers who chose to live beside the waters.

The houses of the informal settlers don’t have any proper comfort room, so their waste is being dropped along the river.

Even the trash collectors in Metro Manila said that the people are still not practicing proper waste disposal.

The government is doing their efforts to relocate the informal settlers in different provinces so they can rehabilitate the rivers along Metro Manila easily.

They also urged the residents near the canals to help the government in cleaning their place.

Estero De Magdalena Photo: Scoopnest

Social media users have been disturbed by the photos taken at Estero De Magdalena in Tondo, Manila showing the serious problem of the National Capital Region in the garbage.

They were saddened that despite what happened in Ondoy, some people were still not disciplined and doesn’t care if another big flood happened because of the improper waste disposal.

When Ondoy struck in 2009, most of the places in Metro Manila has been flooded and the government blamed the garbages which blocked the floodways for the disaster.
