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

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.

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…

In her article on the inclusion of Vice President Inday Sara Zimmerman Duterte Carpio in the International Criminal Court investigation on human rights abuses in the Philippines, veteran journalist Ellen Tordesillas possibly unveiled the reason why Duterte Carpio attempted to unseat President Bongbong Marcos through a now failed attempt to wrest the House Speakership and…

Inday Sara: A Lousy VP, A Lousy Education Secretary, and A Lousy Anti Terrorism Talking Head

Inday Sara: A Lousy VP, A Lousy Education Secretary, and A Lousy Anti Terrorism Talking Head

If you were born yesterday or part of the Duterte cult, you’d think that Inday Sara Duterte Carpio is such a supergenius like Elon Musk that she can lead three distinct roles in government exceptionally well. But being a mediocre and petulant political brat, she’s doing poorly as a Vice President, Education Secretary and Co…
