Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is right not to trust current VP Leni Robredo

January 14, 2017 Ilda 46 Comments

Current Vice President Leni Robredo has been constantly under fire from the public ever since she was declared the “winner” of the second highest position in Philippine government in the 2016 Presidential Elections. She has never earned the respect of the voters who believe that her “win” was the result of electoral fraud and that…

#LabanLeni Robredo’s parasitical relationship with Malacanang finally comes to an end

December 5, 2016 benign0 24 Comments

Rather than be a team player, “vice president” Leni Robredo behaved like an entitled spoilt brat the whole time she “served” in the Cabinet of President Rodrigo Duterte. The expectations Duterte had of Robredo were quite simple as articulated in the official Malacanang statement on her removal from the Cabinet… As a Cabinet member, the…

Laban Leni! That familiar battle cry of the Yellowtards will once again ripple across social media in response to their leader, “vice president” Leni Robredo getting booted out of the Cabinet of President Rodrigo Duterte.

What happens to Filipinos when they can no longer “make sumbong”?

There is something to be said about Filipinos and their ability to engage opponents fairly. In a fair engagement, you recognize the situation and the position you’re currently in, and assess them.

Anti-Marcos “Citizen’s Assembly” in Luneta marred by Aquino supporters clad in Yellow attire

August 14, 2016 benign0 51 Comments

The organisers of an anti-Marcos rally dubbed the “Citizen’s Assembly” held Sunday were very clear about participants’ required attire: Wear white. The widely-circulated graphic worded it even more amiably. Let’s wear white. Presumably, the call to “wear white” was designed to ensure that as broad a base of people who are against the burial of…

Raising the flag of righteous indignation

August 7, 2016August 9, 2016 Carlo de Leon 12 Comments

It really irks me no end to see and hear people judge others and label them as evil or bad, at the very least not good. So-called righteous people who parade themselves as holier than thou are, in reality, hypocrites. Like the minions of the yellow army who until now keep on harping that President…

Leni Robredo tries to appeal to emotion instead of responding to BBM’s electoral protest

August 4, 2016August 4, 2016 Ilda 28 Comments

The more I listen to current Vice President Leni Robredo speak, the more I am convinced that she is not fit for higher office. Take her recent press conference for instance, held a day after Supreme Court summoned her to answer former Senator Bongbong Marcos’s electoral protest. She told reporters that she is not worried…

Leni Robredo has become a victim of her own over-confidence

July 6, 2016November 3, 2021 Ilda 59 Comments

Current Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo is proving that her detractors are right about her. Even before the recently-concluded Presidential Elections, a lot of people already thought that she is not fit to be Vice President. Her recent statements to the media is not doing much to reverse that impression. First of all, some people…
