The LIAR Justice Carpio should accept President Duterte’s challenge to a debate

Posted on By benign0 4 Comments on The LIAR Justice Carpio should accept President Duterte’s challenge to a debate

Retired Supreme Court Justice Antonio Carpio leads the only group — 1Sambayan — that aspires to cobble together a broad Opposition coalition to go up against the camp of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte in the coming 2022 elections. It therefore makes sense that Carpio, at the very least, dignify the President’s challenge to a debate…

Duterte is right. The Philippine arbitral “win” versus China not worth the paper it is printed on.

Posted on By benign0 12 Comments on Duterte is right. The Philippine arbitral “win” versus China not worth the paper it is printed on.

Thing with Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is that he calls important stuff for what they are. In the case of the Philippines’ claim to vast territories in the South China Sea, Duterte points out that waving a piece of paper at a global power quietly building structures on territory other powers say you have a…

Posted on By benign0 33 Comments on The time has come for Filipinos to consider a Bongbong Marcos presidency!

Recall back to the twilight years of the presidency of former President Benigno Simeon “BS” Aquino III. Back then, Aquino was so desperate to shore up the flagging political fortunes of his party that he would go as far as reminding Filipinos to stop referring to the regime of former President Ferdinand Marcos as the…

Labor Day serves as a reminder that Filipinos are workers and not much else

Posted on By benign0 8 Comments on Labor Day serves as a reminder that Filipinos are workers and not much else

It’s Labour Day again and that time of the year when the familiar background din of poverty porn and rhetoric around the “victimisation” of workers is put front-and-centre and amplified to circus-grade. At the centre of all this noise is the idea that need determines pay and wealth obligates “giving”. Never mind, of course that…

Stories about poverty don’t make lucrative “journalism”

Posted on By benign0 3 Comments on Stories about poverty don’t make lucrative “journalism”

One thing today’s Philippine Opposition need to seriously consider is that a cabal of woke “journalists” are among their top “thought leaders” and agents of public relations. This is a problematic situation for parties that aspire to seize power legally in 2022 because these parasitical members of their “cause” are not delivering results where they…

Posted on By benign0 8 Comments on WHO is the Yellowtard Zena Bernardo? Is she Ana Patricia Non’s “mother”?

An Interaksyon “report” dated the 22nd April called her “a relative of community pantry organizer Ana Patricia Non”. But then an ABS-CBN News “report” posted on the same date referred to her as her “mother”. So the important question Filipinos are asking nowadays is this: Who is Zena Bernardo??? Seeing that the jury is still…

Posted on By benign0 8 Comments on VERA Files dishonestly blocked a #GetRealPhilippines article about Senator Franklin Drilon on Facebook!

It’s come to my attention that one of our blog posts on our short-article site Get Real Pundit, “Senator Franklin Drilon momentarily asleep during CNN interview with Pinky Webb” was flagged as “false information” by the Facebook “fact check” Taliban. As shown in the above screenshot, the article was “checked by independent fact-checkers”, in this…

“Death by community pantry” is dead right!

Posted on By benign0 6 Comments on “Death by community pantry” is dead right!

It’s in the news and is all the buzz amongst the mutual high-fivin’ titas of Manila who are reveling in the idea that they have once again scored a Great Woke Cancellation. University of the Philippines Executive Vice President Teodoro J. Herbosa had recently tendered his resignation. News site Interaksyon “reports” that this was “after…
