Senator Bato in trouble?The scene is hot after he suddenly resigned from the Senate.He also hid for a few months, now he could be arrested.

In front of the camera, the votes of the congressmen were overwhelming.VP Sara was impeached again.

That will be the outcome of the case after the coup d 'etat in the Senate.Good evening, I am Penki Webb, live from here in Batasang Pambansa.

And I am Willard Cheng.We are watching on Free TV Channel 31.And I am Corina Sanchez Rojas.Let's start the agenda.Tito Soto out.Alan Peter Cayetano was appointed as Senate President.

For the second time, VP Sara was impeached by the Camera.Could it be that the Senate is connected to the case?Senator Bato de la Rosa appeared and disappeared from the Senate.ICC arrest warrant, was he served?BGMN anchor CJ Hero snubbed the MBI.His video of Martin Romualdez was exposed.

Totally unacceptable was Iran's response to the American peace plan.U .S.President Donald Trump was shocked.Road rage yarn.Benedict Cumberbatch got mad at a cyclist in London.

The leader of the Senate was furious.Senator Alan Peter Cayetano has been replaced by Senator Tito Soto.That's the agenda report of Dexter Ganibe of Abante Live.From the Senate, Dexter, how did it happen in Cudeta?

Corina, Alan Cayetano in, Tito Soto out.That's what happened in the 62nd regular session of the 20th Congress of the Senate this May 11.In a heart -pounding session this afternoon, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano announced that he has already obtained 13 votes to declare the position of the officials of the Senate leaders vacant.Here also, Cayetano announced that Senator Ronald de la Rosa has already entered after six months of silence to add votes to the new majority.After the vote to vacate the Senate leadership, Senator CayetanoMarcos motioned for Senator Alan Cayetano to be elected as the new Senate president.

But the vote was postponed after Soto said that he no longer has the power to grant Marcos' motion and he also insisted that the acting presiding officer take the lead.Senator Gingoy Estrada became the interim presiding officer to continue the session after the former leader was fired.In the vote, Senator Aimee Marcos, Rodante Marcoleta, Joel Villanueva, Chizis Codero, Camille Villar, Mark Villar, Robin Padilla, Bongo, Ronald de la Rosa, Loren Legarda, Pia Cayetano, Gingoy Estrada, and Tito Soto were elected to become the new Senate President, Alan Peter Cayetano.He was the one who voted for Soto, Senators Ping Lackson, Reza Hontiveros, Rafi Tulfo, Erwin Tulfo, Win Gatchalian, Kiko Pangilinan, Bam Aquino, and Lito Lapid.Senators J .B.

Ejercito and Mig Zubiri abstained.Senator Loren Legarda was immediately elected as Senate President Pro Tempore.But before the new Senate President can vote, Many were shocked when Senator Ronald de la Rosa suddenly withdrew from the plenary in exactly six months after he began to absent and did not appear in the Senate since November 11, 2025.But Senator Bato was furious when he went to the Senate earlier because his fingers were injured in his left hand after he was blocked by NBI agents in the parking lot of the Senate building and he was stopped from going up to the second floor to go to the vote.

Why are you here, sir?

But why are you here, sir?Why were you allowed to enter today, sir?

I am a senator of this republic!If you didn't let me in, you would have looked for me!

But, sir, is there a reason for this, sir, for you to be able to collect your numbers?All of that is the work of the senator!

As of now, this session of the Senate is ongoing and there are many things to discuss.But we are waiting to see who will be the new Majority Leader, but for now, acting as Majority Leader, Senator Joel Villanueva.Corina?

So Dexter, have you already talked to the Senator about what happened in Cudeta?Hi Dexter.Have you talked to a senator?

Just a while ago, during the Kudeta event, we talked to outgoing Senate President Tito Soto in an ambush interview.He said that he wasn't that surprised by what happened because over the weekend and even last week, he was informed that there are some seats that he will be replaced.He also said in his statement this weekend that he will bein his position.for the happiness of his fellowmen in the Senate.If his fellowmen are not happy, he may change.

We talked earlier with Senators Bong Go and Senator Robin Padilla, they said that just this afternoon, they learned that the coup d 'etat and the replacement of the leader will continue.Corina?

It's just a coincidence that they suddenly showed up and then suddenly there was a vote.Right?That's what you're saying, right?That's what they're saying.Okay.Let's try to get Dexter Ganibia back to the Senate.

We have a lot of questions about what happened there.In the meantime, thank you very much, Dexter, for surprising us live from the Senate.

After nine months of hiding, Senator Bato de la Rosa finally confessed.On his return to the Senate, he was transferred to Camp Krame to face an investigation into the war on drugs committed by the former administration.Here is the agenda report of Jowash Malimban.

Today, the PNP -CIDG arrested Sabpina against Senator Bato de la Rosa in connection with the investigation of the Umanoy extrajudicial killings that took place in Davao Region.This is based on the hearings of the Quad Committee and the suspicions of the self -confessed Davao Death Squad hitman, retired SPO -3, Arturo Lascañas.Sabpina was arrested in the office of de la Rosa, but his staff did not sign it because the senator did not have instructions.Let's see what happened.Mostly, there were a lot of troops.

You didn't comply with the Sampina.

The Sampina also violated the address of the senator in Davao City.and Davao del Sur.According to Sabpina, Senator Bato needs to appear in Camp Caramel in Quezon City on May 14.If not, it is possible for him to file an indirect contempt complaint in a local court.For the social media blogger, Atty.Reyes del Rosario, it is a lose -lose situation for Senator Bato to appear in CIDG or not.

If he is proven guilty, according to the Supreme Court, he could be put under the custody of the authorities and be fully surrendered to the ICC.According to Republic Act 9851 or the Philippine law, in accordance with Crimes Against International Humanitarian Law, Genocide, and Other Crimes Against Humanity.This law will also be remembered as the center of the discourse when the legality of the former President Rodrigo Duterte's surrender to the ICC was overturned.Even though the ICC said that there is no public arrest warrant against Senator Bato, there are rumors that the Philippine and international authorities are already under coordination.Even though Senator Bato did not show up, it is possible for the court to issue a bench warrant, according to Atty.Del Rosario.

Senator Bato is one of the so -called co -conspirators of FPRRD in his bloody war against drugs, according to the investigation of the ICC.He served as the chief of Davao City Police and regional director of Davao Region before becoming the PNP chief in the Duterte administration.Today, the senator resigned from the Senate after several months of hiding.But there is no guarantee that he will also resign from Kamkrame.For the Agenda, Jowash Malimban, Billionario News Channel.

Meanwhile, let's go back to Senator Dexter Ganibe.Is the NBI still there and is Senator Bato still waiting for an arrest?

As of now, Corina, they are still here because no one is allowed to leave or enter the Senate vicinity, including the Senate building, because ever since the new leader took office, the lockdown has been imposed here in the Senate.Corina.

Okay, so will Dexter be able to continue his promise made by SP Tito Soto, the fourth whip?This means that once the impeachment from a low -ranking prisoner is transmitted to the Senate, the trial will continue.

If we look at the new composition of the new majority of the Senate, it is almost identical to the majority of the Senate when the 20th Congress started under the leadership of the former Senate President, C .E.Escudero.And C .E.Escudero is still a member of the Senate Majority, the new Senate Majority that made the decision back then.

So the new Senate Majority may be influenced.

It remains to be seen.But Dexter, what if Senator Bato gets arrested?Is it possible to reduce...

That's what we're waiting for because the Senators are still deliberating on what they will do with the arrest warrant held by the NBI that will serve here.Earlier, there was a motion in the plenary before we went live.that Senator Dela Rosa will be placed under protective custody.That motion was made by Senator Rodante Marcoleta Corina.

So will the chairmanship of the various committees change now, Dexter?

That's what we're waiting for, Corina.That's one of the things we're waiting for, aside from the new leadership of the Senate in impeachment.articles of impeachment dito sa Senado, ang isa nating inaabangan, ang change of chairmanship sa mga key committees ng Senado, at isa na dyan, ang controversial na Senate Blue Ribbon Committee.

Ayun.Okay.Maraming salamat, Dexter Ganiben, nag -uulat ng live mula sa Senado.

Before joining the Senate, Senator Pato de la Rosa felt the Rage Coalition in Cebu this Sunday.Details in the agenda report of Jill Sebandal.

The Rage Coalition was formed by political leaders and allied groups of the Duterte family.The new members of the Rage or Reform Alliance for Accountability, Good Governance and Ethics were appointed to Visayas Leg.Former Ilocos Sur Governor Luis Chavit Singson and Cavite Congressman Kiko Barzaga were also appointed.

within the Rage Coalition.Well, my role is the same.It's amplifying the message of anti -corruption and of the good governance shared by Vice President Sar Duterte and the previous Duterte administration.

Senator Bato de la Rosa also felt the missing in action at the event.In a recorded voice message, he expressed his support for VP Sara, who is facingan impeachment in the House of Commons.

I thank VP Sara Duterte Inday Sara for her service.

In Baluarte, the Dutertes of Mindanao will hold the next Rage Coalition meeting.For Mindanao, I promise that I will go wherever I can.The answer of the anti -Duterte groups outside the law today is a protest.Their cry?Impeach Sara now.For the Agenda, Jill Sebandal, Billionario News Channel.

Aside from the subpoena, Senator Bato Dela Rosa will also receive an ICC arrest warrant.According to former Senator Antonio Trillanes, this will now serve its purpose.That's the agenda report of Hanna T. live from the Senate.Hanna, will the warrant serve its purpose?What is the current status of the security there?

Corina, the ICCP has not yet approved the warrant of arrest for Senator Bato de la Rosa.Senate plenary a few minutes ago after the session was resumed in the plenary.Earlier, Del Rosa was spotted breathing heavily because of the chase and wrestle with him.the of the of the people.Uh, of the

to him.Foreign a year Sen. Rodante Marcolet issued a motion for Dela Rosa's custody while the senator is exhausting all legal remedies for her protection.

is it legal or not legal to apprehend a sitting senator during session?

In fact declared as unconstitutional and it's a provision that should not be ignored.So for Trillanes, it's valid to file a warrant of arrest or possible to file a warrant of arrest to Dela Rosa anytime soon.And earlier, because Dela Rosa left the Senate session or Senate plenary, I asked her how she can use The reason for the evasion, the arrest, the arrest of the NBI personnel, said Trillanes, Delarosa's evasion is considered as an arrest and there are many violations that can be reported against Delarosa.Corina.Okay, last question.

If Senator Delarosa was arrested, then the number of That's actually a really good question.

We've yet to hear from the side of newly seated Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano about it becauseah, kumatatandaan natin sa panahon ni dating Senator Laila de Lima, he, she was still able to work while under detention.But for now, since this is a different case because this is the international tribunal, we've yet to hear from the new senate leadership if the number of senators in the senate majority will decrease.I will discuss another senate coup.complaint to the NBI personnel that he was chased away.In fact, the CCTV footage showed that he was chased away and the NBI personnel attempted to grant a motion for De La Rosa to get or to be under Senate custody.

We waited for the development here because so far, no one has given an interview.And that's because the Senate is also under lockdown.Corina, actually, some NBI personnel are here inside the Senate premises with us and also Trillanes.So, for now, former Senator Trillanes is hoping to get this NBI warrant of arrest anytime soon because all of us are here inside the Senate premises and it is prohibited to go out and once you go out, you cannot enter.So, on the part of De La Rosa, we've yet to confirm if Attorney Jimmy Bondoc is still outside and particularly his legal counsel to help him when it comes tolegal concerns.

Corina.

Maybe you can get in touch with Ginoong Matibag of the NBI or Ginoong Bondok so we can also talk.These events are exciting.John, thank you very much.Hannah T is live from the Senate.

In the Senate, the scene in the House of Representatives is also hot, where the impeachment case of VP Sara was voted.Here is the agenda report of Isaiah Mirafuentes, live from here in Batasan.Isaiah, what is the result of the vote?

Pinky, in the vote of 255 -26 -9, Vice President Sara Duterte was impeached in the House of Representatives.Based on the details that we got, Pinky, some of the people who voted no for impeachment are from Visayas and Mindanao.Before the vote, some young people asked for a vote and they went to a mass in the House of Representatives.

Of course, in prayer, to ask God's blessing and guidance on what we're about to do.But also to make sure that everything we do, we don't lose sight of the original intent that we had.

After this, they walked around the chamber to pray for the guidance on their vote.The session hasn't even started and they're already on their way back.Batangas Representative Leandro Leviste is involved in the impeachment process.against the vice president.He is in favor of the possibility of impeachment, which is passed by the MOOE or the Budget of Lawyers for their employees and district.Exactly at 3 p .

m., the plenary session began.215 lawmakers were present in the plenary.Less than an hour later, the sponsorship for the committee report No. 261 started, which was led by House Committee on Justice Chair Gervie Luistro.

Let's do this.Let's do it right.Let's follow the process.Let's follow the Constitution.And that's what the Committee on Justice did.So the real question is, Now, not only do we have a number, the more important question is, did we follow the process?

And above all, do we have evidence?Mr. Speaker, distinguished colleagues, process and evidence.And our answer is a clear and firm yes.

But in the beginning, when Davao City Representative Paulo Duterte walked out, According to the truth, it was a quick roll call.For the details of what the Billionaire News Channel got from the guests, they are with Navora City Representative Toby Tiang,news channel.V .H.Partilis, Representative Robert Nazala, Congressman San Shimura of Cebu Port District, QC Representative Bong Suntay, and Congresswoman Christine Chutor of Bohol.

Representative Jose Alvarez abstained, Representative Edgar Irise abstained, and Representative Audrey Zobiri abstained.Up until now, we have heard from the House of Representatives that they are currently explaining their reasons.of their vote for impeachment.Earlier, we personally talked to Representative Kiko Barzaga about the reasons for his nomination for impeachment.We already know, even back then, that Pinky will nominate Barzaga because he's one of Duterte's allies here in the House of Representatives.What he's saying to us earlier is that it's already expected that VP Sara will be impeached, but he's saying that when it comes to the Senate, it's impossible to get her.

the 16 votes from the senators.Meanwhile, we also talked to the personnel, Senator's congressman Toby Tiangco, who also voted yes for impeachment.He explained to us that his vote earlier was not a reason to say that Vice President Sara Duterte is guilty.He told us earlier that he wants to hear more in the trial about the explanationsthe vice president and he wants to understand the evidence more.He told us that of all the evidence that was released to the House of Representatives, the one that really struck him was Sal N. V. Pizarra where the vice president did not declare cash -on -hand and cash -on -bank deposit from 2019 to 2024.

That's the only thing he wants to clarify.But the relatives of Ramil Madriaga told us that Representative Kiyangco is a liar.Thank you.

Isaiah, does VP Sara's camp have a reaction?

Pinky, for now, we also have what Atty.Michael Boa said.He's one of the legal counsels of Vice President Sara Duterte.What Pinky is telling us is that the camp of Bice has accepted or they have heard the result of the vote here in the plenary.But Pinky, they insisted that they are ready to face the Senate trial and prove that the allegations against Vice President Sara Duterte are wrong.And their only wish is that the complainants or accusers will be able to fight their complaints.

Thank you very much Isaiah Mirafuentes reporting live from Batasan.FEU Law School Dean, Mel Santamaria.Dean Mel, good evening to you.

Good evening to you, Pinky.

All right Dean Mel, any surprises here in the House of Representatives?

In the House of Representatives, there was no surprise.Maybe the number went up in the expectation.It should have been 106, but it became 250.255 is a big significance.Let's remember Pinky, in a survey of about 70 percent of the people, they want to have a Senate trial to hear the opinion of VP Sara Duterte.That's why the number of 255 is shocking.

So, What we see in the story, the bribery, the confidential fund, the destabilization, that's what he's branding now because it hasn't been proven yet.As long as he can't answer that, his political capital is negatively affected, especially since the Congress voted.Those are the two significance that I see.

And because you told us that there was no surprise, This is the national consensus, basing it on the survey that most of those who were surveyed want to proceed into trial.I will now cross to Senator Dean Mel, Attorney Mel.What was your reaction to, well, two things.I will start with the coup d 'etat.Now, the Senate President is Alan Peter Cayetano.

We were all surprised because They really hid that secret, the other side, and Senator Cayetano suddenly appeared and said that he mentioned it.Soto, Tito Sen, that he is asking for his approval in the plenary, what his fate is.So an election took place.Now, of course, the perception of a person, whether right or wrong, is attached to impeachment.If we remember, Senator Cayetano was the candidate for vice president of former President Duterte.He has a history with the Dutertes.

And if we look at the people who voted for him, these are the ones who are expected to acquit Quezada.So right or wrong, the first perception of the people who voted for him was for impeachment.But of course, let's look at it.Let's give benefit of the doubt to Allen Cayetano.The truth will set you free.That's why Senator Cayetano is really trying to prove that he will be neutral, because he will be their scapegoat.

Neutral and non -partisan.Of course, sincerity is always subject to proof.That's why we will look at that.

You, your personal story, did the coup happen because of impeachment?

For me, it's already included because if we look at the votes and the members of the so -called opponents of the dispensation, they are the ones.That's why I think In my opinion, that's also included.First of all, we're saying that when it comes to the Senate, VP Zara has an advantage.Now, the perception is that she has an advantage because she's leading the way.are voting for Senator Cayetano and his allies.So I think there is a connection.

That's just my opinion.

Okay.Atty.Mel, any surprises regarding the transfer or joining of SP Alan Peter Cayetano?

Well, I don't know them, but yes, for example, the villiaras.We see them as passive.I think they will just follow whoever is good at persuading them.So maybe they persuaded Peter Cayetano's group, the Villars, but the rest is expected.It's expected, Pinky.

What do you think of those that abstained or chose to be independent, like Senator Mig Zubiri and Senator JV Ejercito?

The vote of the independent, let's not go around in circles.The vote of the abstainers, that's a vote, right?What he's saying is he doesn't want the dispensation now.Maybe he doesn't want to replace it, but the real effect is Tito Soto.Of course, they will be affected by the abstentions.It's like being in front of a camera.

You're abstaining.

Yes.Let's just go back to what happened to Senator Bato de la Rosa.He showed up today.And of course, the numbers of the coup for Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano were added because of Senator Bato de la Rosa.Amidst all this, the supposed arrest warrant, the NBI, which is now there, former Senator Antonio Trillan, the Senate, they're all in lockdown now.How do you see this panning out?

Well, It is an act of the executive and normally, in cases of foreign affairs, you give deference to the decisions of the executive because they are the premier foreign policy parties.I don't know what will happen there.Maybe the Senate and the Executive Department should talk about that.But there is a law that is being violated, the Republic Act 9851.

The pro - and anti -impeachment groups are facing each other outside the camera.We got the details of Janina Vela's Agenda Report here in Batasan.Janina, what's the update from your end?

The other pro -impeachment groups were pushed back from their positions after the anti -impeachment supporters arrived in front of Batasang Pambansa on the day of the plenary vote on the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte.Nagdipon sa harap ng hawa.Representatives, some progressive groups gathered, including the May 1 Movement, Bagong Aliansang Makabayan and other organizations, to push the Camera to continue the impeachment case of VP Sara.Also included in the mobilizations are some lawmakers, including ACT -Bayan Representative Percy Sendanya.According to Sendaña, the evidence contained in the Articles of Impeachment is more than enough and there is no reason to delay the case in the Senate.

She will be impeached for the second time this afternoon because of the overwhelming evidence which were presented and vetted during the validation process in the Committee on Justice.There's no reason for delay.There's no reason for this impeachment complaint not to see its day in court in the Senate.

Aside from Sindana, the young party list representative Rene Co and ACT teachers party list representative Antonio Tinio are also present.But it's not just pro -impeachment groups who are standing outside the law.We stand with VP Sara on the call of Duterte's supporters that their banners and placards have arrived bit by bit.The pro -Sarah group had to retreat from their positions after the pro -Sarah group advanced and remained in their positions.In the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte here in Congress, it seems that another group is behind the articles of impeachment that will now advance in the Senate.Thank you.

Thank you very much, Janina Vela, live here in Batasan.

unacceptable para que US President Donald Trump ang naging tugon ng Iran sa peace plan ng Estados Unidos.Nakatood ang sagot ng Tehran sa pagtatapos ng gera at pagtitiyak sa seguridad sa Strait of Hormuz.Hindi ito nagustuhan ni Trump dahil hindi umano kasama ang pagabandunan ng Iran sa kanilang nuclear ambition.At dahil deadlock na naman ang peace talks, muling sumirit ang presyo ng crudo sa global market.

The passengers of the cruise ship that was hit by the Hanta virus outbreak have been evacuated.They left the Port of Granadilla in Spain and went to their respective countries, including America, Canada, United Kingdom, Turkey, and the Netherlands.Three died from the outbreak, while some tested positive for the disease.But the World Health Organization resolved the concerns about the Hantavirus.

This is not COVID.The average person does not need to be worried about hantavirus here in this setting.These folks are being managed very carefully, very deliberately by the Spanish authorities.They're getting off the ship.They're getting into small boats.They're being spaced apart in the buses so that there's no risk to one another.

There are still no Hantavirus infections in the Philippines, according to the DOH.But screening is still in progress in the provinces and states of the country.A protocol is being followed before it can be implemented.facilities like RITM for proper treatment and monitoring.

For the first time ever, the President of Paraguay visited the Philippines.What did the two countries agree on?

Find out in the Agenda Report of Ivy Reyes.The Philippines and Paraguay signed two agreements on the first visit of a Paraguayan president to the country in over 60 years of diplomatic ties.Secretary of Foreign Affairs Maria Theresa Lazaro and Paraguayan Foreign Minister Ruben Lescano signed a Memorandum of Understanding to waive the visa requirements.It is the first time that a president of the Republic of Paraguay sets foot on Philippine soil.

This fact is not merely protocolary.It is the clearest expression of the political will of both governments to inaugurate a new phase in our bilateral relations, grounded in shared principles and values such as mutual respect, the rule of law.

Paraguay pledged its commitment to help the food security of the Philippines.For Paraguay, the location of the Philippines is said to be strategic for their economy to enter Southeast Asia.It is possible for the Philippines to export tuna, sardines, and milkfish, aside from the talks they had about trade and renewable energy.Although the politics of Paraguay and the Philippines became the talk of the two presidents, as well as the regional issues revolving in ASEAN and Mercosur or the Southern Common Market in South America.

What came out was a remarkable parallel in the way that our countries are developing ourselves and how we view each of our countries.The Philippines views itself as a gateway to Asia and Paraguay a gateway to Latin America.And that connection, should we make it and should we strengthen it, will be a remarkable boon, not only to want your country and mine, but also to the regions from where we come from.

According to Paraguayan President Santiago Peña Palacios, he has no doubt that the region of Southern America and Asia belongs to President Bumarcos.For the Agenda, I'm Vy Reyes, Billy Norton News Channel.

In the past, when someone in the family got sick, they would get worried.Not only because of the sickness, but also because of the fear of where they would get the medicine.President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. saw and felt this.His order is to bring health care to every Filipino.PhilHealth was entrusted with the task to make this order a real service.That's why the President went to General Santos City to make sure the programs reach the people.

Good morning, Mr. President.

Can I hug you?

Just like the hug program for free check -ups, screening, x -rays, and lab tests.There is also a medicine program that provides up to 20 ,000 pesos for free maintenance medicines.

The Yakap, by the mere word, Yakapin, means to get rid of the disease.We have also installed the availability of medicine and the basic lab.We're hoping to lower the number of hospitals that we need.

We are doing things early on so that the disease won't reach us.

There is additional support for dialysis for people like Leo, who has to receive dialysis three times a week.There is also help in cancer treatments for people like Mariebeth, so that the battle for expenses will not be cut.Maternity coverage for normal delivery, cesarean, prenatal, and postnatal care has also been expanded.

We spread the news so that people will know.If they have feelings, if they want to see their children or whatever, they will go.

In the whole country, there is continuous work.One by one, things are being organized that are affecting the lives of Filipinos.Now, there is PhilHealth, there is help.

Check ulit tayo sa EDSA Mega Mall.Bumper to bumper ang mga sasakyan sa northbound lane, light naman ang southbound lane.Welcome to the show!This is the message of PGMN Anchor CJ Hero to late congressman Martin Romualdez after he released the Umanoy expose against the former speaker.But according to some experts, all of this is now old news.This is Andrea Salve's Agenda Report.

PGMN Anchor CJ Hero broke his silence for a few days following the arrest of PGMN Founder Franco Mabanta and four other personalities related to the alleged rape of former House Speaker Martin Romualdez.After the five were released this weekend, Hero's Facebook account came back to life.This Sunday night, he personally released the alleged exposé video linked to the alleged extortion attempt and called it the truth that the former speaker wanted to kill.

It is time to pick apart and take down the dirty house he built on insatiable greed for money and power.

Long live the Congress of the People!Long live the Philippines!

Ferdinand Martin Romualdez Welcome to the show.

In all of this, PGMN is teaching Romualdez as a mastermind.But according to a journalism professor, no new information was presented by PGMN in this big exposé.

Instead of being an investigative piece, it became a performative piece.And to say that this is a product of journalism or journalistic output, It is a big insult if you use the term periodism towards real journalists who know how to report and judge in the field of journalism.

On May 6, Subpina's NBI issued a lawsuit against Hiro because of his or her role in the making of the exposé video that was used in the alleged rape.However, they did not receive any documents from the addresses they sent.This Monday, Hiro's lawyers went to the NBI's office.

She's out of town.She's not hiding.She has nothing to hide.That's why she sent me here, to represent her.In good faith, she came here to the NBI.My only request here is to request a subpoena.

Kampo just took the physical copy of the subpoena.The hearing was also resumed to give the hero enough time to prepare.For now, it's not clear if this will be personal to the newly elected president.For the Agenda, Andrea Salve, Billionaire News Channel.
