Inday Sara’s Cosplay and Snub By BBM

Inday Sara’s Cosplay and Snub By BBM

Days after President Bongbong Marcos’ second State of the Nation Address, I still find myself gagging over the en faire tout un fromage over our political elite’s so-called red carpet pageantry. I don’t recall when traditional news media started featuring the fashion statements of this country’s politicians, but it should stop because it detracts from…

Continued Shrinking of VP Inday Sara’s Political Capital

Posted on July 26, 2023July 27, 2023 By Oman 2 Comments on Continued Shrinking of VP Inday Sara’s Political Capital
Continued Shrinking of VP Inday Sara’s Political Capital

Vice President Inday Sara Zimmerman Duterte Carpio was probably under the delusion that she is anything like her father when she tried to ape his penchant for bold and daring moves only to fall on her bloated, mannish face. Only former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte can be called a “rockstar” president because he was reasonably…

Repivot of Philippine foreign policy back to the US under BBM steals thunder from traditional anti-China Opposition rhetoric

Repivot of Philippine foreign policy back to the US under BBM steals thunder from traditional anti-China Opposition rhetoric

The tone Inquirer columnist Randy David himself takes in his piece “Foreign policy in [Marcos’s SONA]” likely mirrors the conundrum he and members of his camp find themselves in today. President Bongbong Marcos is the archenemy of the Opposition and yet he has co-opted their agenda of bringing the Philippines back into America’s arms. This…

Filipinos suffering ‘effigy fatigue’ as traditional “activists” exhibit a profound imagination deficit in SONA 2023 antics

Filipinos suffering ‘effigy fatigue’ as traditional “activists” exhibit a profound imagination deficit in SONA 2023 antics

Anti-Marcos rhetoric. What else, right? It’s not as if we could expect anything more of the Philippines’ traditional “activists” who are beavering away over the weekend to prepare for the usual antics expected of them on the occasion of Monday’s State of the Nation Address (SONA). It is interesting then that Yellowtard Inquirer columnist Gideon…

President Bongbong Marcos’s 2023 State of the Nation Address (SONA): Great Expectations vs Stark Reality

The President Wil deliver his second State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday July 24, 2023. The pre-SONA information drive of the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) has been harping on the positive gains since the first one last year. What has President Bongbong Marcos (BBM) achieved in his first year in office? The New…

Impending ICC Arrest Warrant Derails Inday Sara Duterte Carpio’s Presidential Ambition

Posted on July 21, 2023 By Oman No Comments on Impending ICC Arrest Warrant Derails Inday Sara Duterte Carpio’s Presidential Ambition
Impending ICC Arrest Warrant Derails Inday Sara Duterte Carpio’s Presidential Ambition

Would we want a fugitive for a President? Because, in all likelihood, that is what Inday Sara Duterte Carpio will be if she wins the presidency and if the International Criminal Court sentences her guilty of whatever crimes she might be accused of. It is very likely that Inday Sara’s presidential ambitions may go sideways…

Recent moves by former President Rodrigo Duterte a possible play for the 2025 elections

Recent moves by former President Rodrigo Duterte a possible play for the 2025 elections

Is it really or not really a jab at Marcos as Inquirer columnist Manuel L Quezon III (MLQ3) suggests in his piece today? I think not or maybe yes. MLQ3’s extreme realm of speculation is former President Rodrigo Duterte (PRRD) went to China also to ask President Xi Jinping for political asylum… There are two…

Inday Sara Duterte, Political Idolatry, and the Delayed Evolution of Philippine Politics

Posted on July 19, 2023 By Oman No Comments on Inday Sara Duterte, Political Idolatry, and the Delayed Evolution of Philippine Politics
Inday Sara Duterte, Political Idolatry, and the Delayed Evolution of Philippine Politics

I find myself compelled to write this rather long blogpost because people reading my previous writings may have gotten the mistaken impression that I am pro-Marcos. In fairness, my glowing commentary in previous articles regarding President Bongbong Marcos and his cousin, House Speaker Martin Romualdez, may have contributed to this. However, these favorable opinions have…
