We beg to differ.
International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor Fatou Bensouda’s ruling has been weaponized by the Yellowidiots and their allies again. The rub here is they claim they’re patriotic in resisting Chinese agression in the South China Sea on the issue of sovereignty. But when it comes to a cause where they’re desperate, they’re willing to sacrifice sovereignty….
Who were our best President’s who never were. At the top of my list is Juan Ponce Enrile (JPE). To my mind, he is the only Filipino qualified to head all three branches of government. Next is former Ambassador Eduardo Cojuangco Jr (ECJ) for his business acumen and genuine devotion to agriculture. No one else…

Christian Monsod, one of the framers of the current Constitution enacted…
In a shocking turn of events, the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has confirmed that online news site Rappler has violated the Constitution and the Anti-Dummy Law. Unbeknownst to the public, Rappler accepted funds from foreigners, specifically eBay founder and entrepreneur Pierre Omidya and technology investment firm North Base Media to operate its news…
