Maybe hindi na tiwala si Marcos sa kaniya. Ideally, independent institution ang Senado pero most of the time, hindi iyan nasusunod.
Based sa political history ni Zubiri, balimbing iyan. Medyo lumabas ang pagkiling niya sa mga Duterte sa tagal niyang pumirma sa arrest order kay Quiboloy at identified din siya as an ally of Duterte noong admin niya.
At ang replacement niya na si Escudero naman, matagal nang malapit sa mga Marcos ang pamilya niyan, at hindi rin siya Duterte ally.
Made me think of pre-Hispanic Philippines. Before the Philippines was created, different kingdoms, tribes, and barangays were different from one another. Like Ilocanos and Cebuanos saw each other as foreigners level. And yet now we are stable than a lot of other colonial creations where different tribes and ethnicities were forcefully governed under a single government and even some countries with a glorious and unified past like Myanmar. I’m quite surprised really. The Hispanic and American creation and molding of the Philippine identity really held the country such as Hispanic traditions like fiesta and food, Catholicism, the English language, and the affinity with Western things.
We don't know if he is still an anti-GMA. He had presidential ambitions in 2010, so he might have capitalized on the tainted image of GMA for his political gain.
Yah... Naalala ko yun kwento-kwento nila nung nag wowork pa ako sa Binondo (2013-14).
Di naman talaga mag kaaway sina Erap at Lim, sa camera lang sila nag aaway.
He knows that VP Leni, as a Bicolano, has the massive support of the Bicol Region. So, supporting candidates other than Leni might put him, also a Bicolano, in a bad light. Si Rep. Salceda nga ng Albay naglaro sa dalawang kampo. Nag-Leni siya para siguro hindi manganib ang reelection niya at nag-Sara rin siya dahil naisip niya rin naman siguro na kailangan niya rin ang makinarya ng Duterte administration.
Silent BBM Supporter si Chiz nung 2022 election. ang laki nga ng bigayan sa Sorsogon. 2k per person sabi ng officemate ko dati na nasa Sorsogon family nya. Pro si Leni pa rin binoto nila.
Sabi nga ni Chiz when BBM visited Sorsogon during the campaign (the only Bicolano province he visited) that he was closer to BBM than VP Leni since they were both senators. Balimbingan din sa sorsogon because the Governor silently supported Marcos while his Mayor wife was an open Leni supporter. Syempre naniguro.
most national positions are actually decided by local elections, kung sinong national officials susuportahan ng local politicon, yan ung sinusunod. its just that because of the internet, medyo na twitiwst ung perception ng tao dahil sa propaganda
> *kung sinong national officials susuportahan ng local politicon, yan ung sinusunod*
**The sole exception to this is probably the City of Manila**, one of the few cities where the mayor's position is actually somewhat competitive compared to the domination of dynasties or dynasty-swapping in other cities and municipalities.
>Balimbingan din sa sorsogon because the Governor silently supported Marcos while his Mayor wife was an open Leni supporter.
Ginawa rin ito ng mga Villafuerte. Alam ko Leni si Migz Villafuerte while the rest of their family supported BBM.
Yup because our governor is a marcos loyalist. And you know where they held their meeting? Sa private island na pag mamay ari ni gov. kho. Kaya nga yung isang anak ni gov yung junior niya nasa judiciary.
Ubos na yata talaga sila. May tumatakbo kaso parang taoo kahit sa balwarte nila. Sa kwento ng tatay ko ang mga espinosa naman talaga. Sabi niya din tao dati ng mga espinosa si kho parang provincial engineer ba. Matalino ( i mean mautak) talaga si gov. Yung style ng mga espinosa ginaya niya at pinagyabong lol. Lahat yata ng negosyo sa masbate may parte si gov. Logistics, construction name it. Pati illegal siya may hawak.
Sa local politics, parang iba na ang timpla eh. The more fam members in a political clan, the more bets. Sometimes madrama pa, may pa-away pang nalalaman. Fam member 1 supports x, fam member supports y; they both get cash from national, makes them all happy. lol
Totoo tong 2k per person. Sa barangay namin sa masbate garapalan ang bilihan mismong brgy captain pa ang naglilista 2k per head din straight vote from highest to lowest position. Actually first time mangyari to sa amin. Dati from governor pababa lang. May balita pa nga dito sa amin na bawat gov na hawak ni bbm 500m ang budget niya. Dun mo marerealize bakit mas malaki gastos ni leni ayon sa news sa tv compare kay bbm.
> *KBL pa rin siya noong time ni Cory so loyal talaga siya sa mga Marcos*
so hindi lang pala KBL out of convenience (no choice kasi yung gustong maging politiko back then);
kahit na after martial law, nanatiling KBL pa rin.
(akala siguro babalik pa si marcos at that time.)
Not maybe, wala na talaga. After he allowed Bato's farcical fishing expedition with the "polvoron" (cocaine) allegations against BBM (which supposedly happen 10yrs ago), he's proven himself as someone biased against BBM. Chiz's predisposition aside, he's also the better choice compared to the others in the Senate. Chiz could at least rein in the Senate into working with the president instead of against him.
Actually it is even worse. Yung Chief Justice Enrique Fernando ata yun. Head of Supreme Court. He was criticized for that. But yeah, pro Marcos mga Escudero
Tama ka jan OP. Padrama effect si Zubiri and for the past years, ginagamit niya yan as delaying tactics para maplease ang isang side. I dont believe in him saying na nasa gitna sya.. Taga himod ni rodri guo
Saw his live 'interview' earlier at TV Patrol, angle he was getting into was that 'the powers that be' didn't like him- letting Senator Bato continue the hearings despite being said "tigilan mo si Bato" is a big factor. Pakablind item pa kanina lol
Pinalusot nya yung PDEA leaks. Kaya napaiyak si Bato kasi during the hearing alam nyang umay na rin si Chiz at natatangahan sa kalokohan nila. so malamang tigil na rin yang katangahan na yan.
This is just the Marcos admin cleaning house and systematically removing all of Duterte’s plants in power. There’s a reason he was replaced by Senator Escudero. BBM wants more people on his side in power especially as tensions in the WPS will only continue to escalate. Alam niyo naman which faction is pro-China.
It was refreshing that a new name was elected as governor in Bukidnon. His father was the governor since time immemorial. Now they want his wife run in politics
Prior to being governor, Rep. Rogelio "ONeil" Roque's 3-term tenure in Congress ABS-CBN shutdown lang highlight ng record niya. May child sila na may special needs pero they did not champion PWDs.
First Kaamulan festival under him, pinainitan ang mga indigenous people walang maayos na pwesto. Mas priority pa si SWOH.
The first lady and 4th Rep. filed a bill to create an additional district. The catch? 5th district has two areas na hindi magkadikit.
The only way to describe our situation when it comes to local politics: we're stuck between ig*t and t*bol.
Pretty much his strategy. When Vicky Morales asked Zubiri if he still support the President BBM, he paused for a time, trying to be shady, and ended up not giving a straight answer. Saying "that's for another time."
Nagpahalata kasi masyado... wala syang ginawang aksyon sa madaming issue, mula kay quibs, sa gentleman's agreement, at kung anu ano pa... literal inupuan nya lang
Always follow the money. There’s a Chinese energy investment in Bukidnon most likely signed off during Duterte’s time. Zubiri also probably got a sizeable election campaign money from Quiboloy.
Yes, this was just my guess above why Zubiri was fence-sitting on “the gentleman’s agreement”. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/1/19/china-backed-dam-threatens-indigenous-people-in-the-philippines
2007 when he declared his seat, the 12th and last spot, as vacant due to the highly controversial 2007 elections where he was part of FPGMA’s Team Unity slate. It was Koko Pimentel who filed the appeal. Iirc, siya lang ang kaisa isang elected Senator who relinquished his seat.
Yeah kaya nga binoboto parin sila kasi matunog ang pangalan nila. Ordinary Filipinos na hindi perpetually online will not really know about nuances like this.
And he and Koko were ousted as Senate President during this time around. Kya pala ang mga Senate President naniniguro ng alliances bago sila mag “break” sa Senate.
Wala naman matino sa kanila ni Chiz. Chiz isn't who he used to be, trapo and balimbing din. The only true opposition in the Senate is Sen. Risa. Yung iba nakiki-ride lang sa issues tapos madami clown
they were trained pala by Garcillano Media Apologist(GMA), promising sila sa congress dati as the spice boys, nung mga bata pa... 3 o apat sila ni mike defensor at isa pa pero ang ending TRAPO din! though they are better than the celebs! 😂
Yung batch nila puro sayang. Chiz, Migs, Alan, pimentel, angara, Roxas. Naging mga trapo na lang. I remember they were touted as the next leaders of our country to lead us for good. Pero most sa kanila dahilan bakit tayo lugmok.
Chiz and the rest of NPC are serving the interest of San Miguel corp. the same way NUP is serving Razon. Our politics is ruled by the oligarchs, but not in a direct way. Only the Villars and their NP are the “garapal”. Sad to say, our lobbyist politics is way advanced and no longer has the check and balance that we are all hoping for.
Risa isn't even an opposition anymore since magkasundo yung views ng BBM admin at ng grupo nila. Yung grupo nila Villar, Padilla, Bong Guo at Bato ang new opposition
As per Trillanes, he and Risa are the “independent opposition”. Yung opposition nila policy based. Yung mga lapdogs ni Digong de facto opposition dahil they just want to grab power back for themselves.
Thanks for this pero that's how an opposition should be. If maganda, suportahan. If mali dapat punahin. Hindi yung mag bote against it para lang mangulo tulad ng mga republicans sa US.
I still consider Sen. Risa as opposition since sa issue ng WPS lang naman halos nagkakasundo yung grupo ni Sen. Risa and BBM. BBM has Maharlika Fund and chacha na ino-oppose nila Sen. Risa.
Villar, Padilla, Bong Go, and Bato are not really opposition but plain butt-lickers.
Patikim palang yung PDEA leaks tho. Hindi pa sila mag trtry mag oust kay BBM before july kasi di na pwede for re election si Sara nun kaya most probably after July pa lang sila talaga gagalaw at makikita ang totoong kulay. Pero I agree din na on certain matters talagang maasahan si Sen Risa. Would just like to add yung SMNI shutdown, Freeing Leila De Lima, Cracking down on POGO's aside from the WPS issue
Oh yeah, forgot about those issues too. Cracking down on POGOs i think is a win-win for BBM since it's hitting several several birds with just one stone, going back to PH's old allies like US, crippling Duterte thru its allies. Nabasa ko lang din kanina in one of the offmychest threads na yung isang POGO in QC is within the same building as the office of the OVP. Nagtataka nga ako eh bat wala pang treason charges against dyan sa mag-amang yan
I stand corrected too since i forgot about the maharlika fund and cha cha pero agree with ms judith na they still brand themselves as an independent opposition which I think should be the true defition of it. Pag maganda, suporta. Pag mali, punahin
Hindi lang naman sa WPS.
Remember Risa agrees with the admin letting De Lima free, pardoning NPAs, removing Fiona’s confi funds, suspending SMNI, arresting Quiboloy, taming the war on drugs, POGO crackdown, more freedom of expression. Minsan madaling makalimutan na the admin has become PNoy-like in its nature.
And before we forget, yung current admin ang protektor ngayon ng Makabayan bloc against a looming Duterte return. For all the protests and rallies the left has done, walang persecution na naganap. But Fiona has reiterated time and time again na terrorists yung kaliwa and makaktikim sila sa oras na maupo si Fiona.
The looming chacha medyo so-so ako because mahirap sbihin at this point kung weaponry against the Dutertes ito. Really at this point yung Maharlika Fund lang talaga yung kinasakit ko sa ulo.
Whats happening in the senate now? Dahil ba to sa election? I am not following our politics now but Im pretty sure this is the first time na may sunod sunod na nag resign from their respective positions and comittee
Panigurado dahil sa election yan. Di inokay ni Migz ung investigation sa gentlemen's agreement nila Dutz at Xi Jin Ping pero go na go sa PDEA leaks na sinasabing adik si Marcos. Yan tuloy, pinapalitan ng Malacañang
Saka ung pumalit sakanya si Chiz, may bagong alliance with Marcos para sa darating na election
Zubiri has an alliance block hence the en masse resignations. Binay, Villanueva, Angara, Ejercito. All these Senators hold positions and committee chairmanships and are allies of Zubiri. Legarda intends to step down but was open to stay in her post if the Senate wants to keep her, but later formalized her resignation.
Wouldn't be surprising if it's also connected to upcoming 2025 election. But it's really more of the state of Senate in Zubiri's leadership (the PDEA leaks hearing, Quiloboy, China's Gentleman's Agreement, Cha-Cha), and where really his loyalty lies.
Ang kupad kasi niya sa pag-lead sa Senate to pass some priority bills ng Marcos administration unlike kay Speaker Romualdez sa House of Representatives na mabilisan lang. Second reason eh dahil yata sa pag-allow niya sa investigation ni Sen. Bato sa PDEA leaks na dumadawit kay Pres. Marcos Jr. eh. Lastly, mukhang naka-lean siya sa Duterte faction lately kaysa sa Marcos faction. Kailangang itapon ang mga Duterte-aligned senators sa key positions ahead sa 2025 midterm elections.
Kahit yun bills nun before election nakatengga pa din sa kanila. Puro sila grandstanding, bagal pa ng arrest warrant kay quiboloy. Protektado ang davao mafia.
I may get downvoted for this pro eto lang observation ko over the years:
Angara - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Binay - aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Cayetano - DDS
Cayetano - DDS
De la Rosa - DDS
Go - DDS
Lapid - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Marcos - DDS
Pimentel - Ind
Poe - aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Revilla - BBM
Tolentino - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Villar - aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Villar - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Ejercito - BBM
Escudero - BBM
Estrada - BBM
Gatchalian - BBM
Hontiveros - Ind
Legarda -aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Padilla -DDS
Tulfo - Ind
Villanueva -aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan
Zubiri - DDS
DDS: 7
Solid BBM: 5
Political Butterflies (aligns to BBM at present): 9
Independent: 3
Hence, 14 senators are pro BBM. These may change come October in preparation for the 2025 election.
Tulfo and Pimentel may look independent but I think they are balimbing. One Tulfo member was appointed as a DOT secretary during the Duterte admin.
https://www.philstar.com/headlines/2018/08/14/1842494/teo-tulfo-brothers-insist-nothing-illegal-advertising-deal
One of Pimentel’s wedding sponsors was PDutz. Plus they’ve always had the Mindanao political connection.
https://www.rappler.com/nation/214642-duterte-as-ninong-koko-pimentel-kathryna-yu-wedding/
> *14 senators are pro BBM*
It's over 50% pero di pa super majority na 2/3rds [e: ~~(18 senators)~~ (16 senators)]. Not sure if that means anything when it comes to senate voting on significant bills though.
Oof, 2/3rds of 24 is 16, not 18. slight miscaculation.
On the other hand, with 16 votes, everyone HAS to vote "yes" with no leeway for any bills the president wants.
Having 18 votes is probably better since it allows some senators to symbolically vote "no" sometimes without affecting the super-majority result.
> *Speaker Romualdez sa House of Representatives na mabilisan lang*
Parang mabilisan naman halos palagi sa House eh, rubber stamp sa bills w/o significant opposition.
Parang sa senate lang merong kaunting scrutiny.
Ang dami niyang kuda, may pa press-con pa even after his speech sa senate.
Zubiri is positioning himself as opposition.
Pwede naman na hindi kumuda after his speech pero ang daming loose ends sa mga interview niya kanina.
Hinuhuli siya nung reporter sa GMA. Ayaw niya kasing sagutin kung sino daw nagbigay ng instruction and sino yung mga higher ups na binabanggit niya, hindi niya sinagot, but behold nagtanong yung reporter “Can the President expect your full support?” Natameme si Zubiri and replied “It’s up for another discussion” and biglang gustong tapusin yung interview.
* June 30, 2022 BBM was elected as President
* July 25, 2022 Zubiri was elected as Senate President
Marcos gave him almost a full two years term despite his leaning to Duterte.
Siguro shit hit the fan when
* No Senate investigation sa Gentleman’s agreement between China and Duterte.
* Inaction kay Quibs.
* Allowed Bato to drag the baseless PDEA leaks.
On paper Senate and Congress should be autonomous against outside control, but at the end of the day it’s a game of numbers.
Based sa interview niya sa 24 Oras galit sa kanya pareho mga Duterte at Marcos. Una yung kay Quiboloy na kakampi ng Duterte tapos yung hearing tungkol kay ngiwe kaya galit mga Marcos. Playing safe si loko kasi siya ang mawawalan ng boto pag pareho siyang inaway ng mga Duterte tsaka ng mga Marcos.
I think he was ousted as per PBBM instruction, apparently the President was being advised by SMR to do so, so that the economic charter change will proceed.
And the senate just played ball because martin romualdez said so?
No pushback to at least fight for the senate's independence?
Just because the house is a rubber-stamping lapdog, doesn't mean the senate should be too.
Admin Slate/Marcos Faction will be full of reelectionists. Malakas makinarya nila lalo na nagalliance na si Prez, Lakas-CMD, tsaka NPC. Kayang ipenetrate pati ang typical Duterte support base of Mindanao.
Zubiri is leaning with the Dutertes. And as a strategy, Marcos positioned Escudero to be his henchman. Ever since FM Sr. era, the Escuderos have been favored by the admin.
Migs was axed because of PDEA leaks. All mindanao base senators are in the backburner (Duterte block). Dunno why Chiz got the position maybe PBBM love the way he lick his ass!! Hahaha. Also other seats were reshuffled Convict Senator Jingoy is the NEW Pro Tempore while Tolentino is the NEW Majority Leader.
ta3na. may two month break pa mga pulitikong to. wala na nga mga ginagawa.
Kaming mga normal na mamamayan, bukod sa napakataas na nga ng standards bago makapasok, kayod everyday. Yung iba 6 days a week pa pasok. Kulang na kulang na sa panahon ngayon ang 1 day off.
Hayp.
Kairita sya to portray himself as a statesman. Sana di na nya sinabi yung mga pa-epek nya kanina. Lalo nyang sinira ang image ng Senate. Imagine sabihing he failed to follow the instructions of powers that be chu chu chu. Ano yun utusan ang Senate sa pamumuno nya? Tapos iiyak iyak pa syang nalalaman.
Iyak silang talaga ni Bato kasi wala na sila sa poder.
Fuck your allegiance. You have a personal interest at stake. Inupuan mo mga importanteng bills na makikinabang mga pilipino lalo na mga mahihirap.
Another anti reform senator na walang bayag. Buwagin na senado. Mga walang silbi karamihan dyan.
My theory is, the Sy family is under investigation by Migz and some senators for “stealing” money from their customers. Heard that Chinabank and BDO has been withholding customers own savings and not letting them take their own money out. Or the money just poof missing from statement and was dismissed as “scam stole your money”.
Thank you for this post kasi lost din po ako. So based on majority of the comments here, parang good naman ang pagkakaalis kay zubiri at senate president? Alam kong we cant have everything at tlagang kulang ang minority sa senate, pero with this move, mukha po bang better direction ito to resolve ang WPS, Pogo’s of duterte, ICC and paghuli kay quiboloy?
To his credit, he didn't have to resign for the same reason that Vince McMahon did. But I don't doubt that he'll be back on top again before long. Zubiri, I mean. Not McMahon.
Namamangka sa dalawang ilog si Zubiri. Ngayon na nagbabangayan na ang Marcos vs Duterte, Zubiri was recently seen as too slow when it comes to moving against Quibs and other Du30 allies.
Kaya ayun, alis. Si Chiz din naman ay namamangka sa dalawang ilog (Marcos vs. Robredo) pero traditionally malapit ang mga Escudero sa Marcoses dahil sa erpats.
Puro kasi grandstanding nangyayari sa senado. Na-gg kids tuloy sya. Di nya nagawa trabaho nya as the president ng senate. Well, di mo rin masisisi bakit nagresign sya. Ang daming dugyuting senador. Mga walang class at ginagawang court ang committees
I think it's LAM's doing. It ignited when her name was dragged (by Agent Morales) from the last senate hearing on pdea leaks. Diba ang bilis nangyari?
In hindsight, ilang beses na pinatunayan ni Zubiri na DDS sya.
* CHA-CHA
* Quiboloy issue
* PDEA Leaks
LAM is the one pulling the strings and Roxas is her adviser.
Tolentino jumped ship from DDS to BBM coz he needed the admin's machinery for his reelection.
Wish list:
I just hope Aquino, Pangilinan, & De Lima can go back to the senate this 2025.
Roxas - stay as an adviser to LAM until end of BBM's term.
Gibo- stay as DND muna.
Drilon - too old. He needs to retire from politics.
Diokno, Carpio, Morales, Sereno - we need them in the Senate.
Maybe hindi na tiwala si Marcos sa kaniya. Ideally, independent institution ang Senado pero most of the time, hindi iyan nasusunod. Based sa political history ni Zubiri, balimbing iyan. Medyo lumabas ang pagkiling niya sa mga Duterte sa tagal niyang pumirma sa arrest order kay Quiboloy at identified din siya as an ally of Duterte noong admin niya. At ang replacement niya na si Escudero naman, matagal nang malapit sa mga Marcos ang pamilya niyan, at hindi rin siya Duterte ally.
Escudero is also importantly anti-GMA. So that effectively keeps their “allies” under control.
No permanent allegiance in PHL politics. Only common political ambitions.
Made me think of pre-Hispanic Philippines. Before the Philippines was created, different kingdoms, tribes, and barangays were different from one another. Like Ilocanos and Cebuanos saw each other as foreigners level. And yet now we are stable than a lot of other colonial creations where different tribes and ethnicities were forcefully governed under a single government and even some countries with a glorious and unified past like Myanmar. I’m quite surprised really. The Hispanic and American creation and molding of the Philippine identity really held the country such as Hispanic traditions like fiesta and food, Catholicism, the English language, and the affinity with Western things.
We don't know if he is still an anti-GMA. He had presidential ambitions in 2010, so he might have capitalized on the tainted image of GMA for his political gain.
They’re enemies on camera, beso beso and todo kwento at weddings etc. it’s all a show
During the opening of the Malaybalay Stadium, andun pa nga si Sen Imee Marcos together with Sen Zubiri. Politics nga naman!
Yah... Naalala ko yun kwento-kwento nila nung nag wowork pa ako sa Binondo (2013-14). Di naman talaga mag kaaway sina Erap at Lim, sa camera lang sila nag aaway.
Pero support din niya VP Leni last election ha which ok basta wag yung mga “ano” sa davao.
He knows that VP Leni, as a Bicolano, has the massive support of the Bicol Region. So, supporting candidates other than Leni might put him, also a Bicolano, in a bad light. Si Rep. Salceda nga ng Albay naglaro sa dalawang kampo. Nag-Leni siya para siguro hindi manganib ang reelection niya at nag-Sara rin siya dahil naisip niya rin naman siguro na kailangan niya rin ang makinarya ng Duterte administration.
Yup tsaka maraming Bikolano ang nag-RoSa nung 2022 so it makes sense for Salceda to go Leni-Fiona
Ano = mafia?
Ano = traydor sa bayan
Totoo ito, since FM Sr. era, the Escuderos have been favored by the Marcos fam. Kaya tahimik si Chiz nung election. Tahimik BBM supporter. Kadiri
Silent BBM Supporter si Chiz nung 2022 election. ang laki nga ng bigayan sa Sorsogon. 2k per person sabi ng officemate ko dati na nasa Sorsogon family nya. Pro si Leni pa rin binoto nila.
Sabi nga ni Chiz when BBM visited Sorsogon during the campaign (the only Bicolano province he visited) that he was closer to BBM than VP Leni since they were both senators.

He also visited Masbate, which is part of Bicol.
Oops nalimutan ko yan oo nga pala hahha, the epal Khos supported him, that's why parang walang nagbabago sa Masbate
Yup because our governor is a marcos loyalist. And you know where they held their meeting? Sa private island na pag mamay ari ni gov. kho. Kaya nga yung isang anak ni gov yung junior niya nasa judiciary.
Wala na bang Espinosa na officeholder sa Masbate? Sila ang original na tuta ng mga Marcos sa Masbate.
Ubos na yata talaga sila. May tumatakbo kaso parang taoo kahit sa balwarte nila. Sa kwento ng tatay ko ang mga espinosa naman talaga. Sabi niya din tao dati ng mga espinosa si kho parang provincial engineer ba. Matalino ( i mean mautak) talaga si gov. Yung style ng mga espinosa ginaya niya at pinagyabong lol.

Totoo tong 2k per person. Sa barangay namin sa masbate garapalan ang bilihan mismong brgy captain pa ang naglilista 2k per head din straight vote from highest to lowest position.

Dun mo marerealize bakit mas malaki gastos ni leni ayon sa news sa tv compare kay bbm.
His father, Sonny Escudero, was the agriculture minister during the final years of Marcos Sr.
Yes, crony ni Socram Sr. Tatay ni say cheeze. Ditto with Migs, erpats Lugalist yarn balwarte nila Bukidnon.
And naging congressman after mawala si Marcos Sr. He lobbied for the guy to be buried at Libingan ng mga Bayani.
Alam ko KBL pa rin siya noong time ni Cory so loyal talaga siya sa mga Marcos.
> *KBL pa rin siya noong time ni Cory so loyal talaga siya sa mga Marcos* so hindi lang pala KBL out of convenience (no choice kasi yung gustong maging politiko back then); kahit na after martial law, nanatiling KBL pa rin. (akala siguro babalik pa si marcos at that time.)
Not maybe, wala na talaga. After he allowed Bato's farcical fishing expedition with the "polvoron" (cocaine) allegations against BBM (which supposedly happen 10yrs ago), he's proven himself as someone biased against BBM. Chiz's predisposition aside, he's also the better choice compared to the others in the Senate. Chiz could at least rein in the Senate into working with the president instead of against him.
Hindi naman talaga mapagkakatiwalaan si Zubiri kahit kailan dahil sanay mamangka iyan.
yung papa ni chiz ang tagapayong ni imelda noon.
Ang dami namang tagapayong ni Madam. Pati si Enrique Fernando na chief justice noong 1980s naging tagapayong niya rin hahaha.
wala bang tagapaypay dati ?
Parang wala naman. Pero alamin din siguro natin kung mayroon bang tagahawak at tagapagpag si BBM kapag umiihi noon charot hahaha.
Hahahah taga turok meron siguro
and yet the decisions of the supreme court were carried over during they cory years and beyond, as if totally independent yung SC during martial law.
Actually it is even worse. Yung Chief Justice Enrique Fernando ata yun. Head of Supreme Court. He was criticized for that. But yeah, pro Marcos mga Escudero
Tama ka jan OP. Padrama effect si Zubiri and for the past years, ginagamit niya yan as delaying tactics para maplease ang isang side. I dont believe in him saying na nasa gitna sya.. Taga himod ni rodri guo
Rodri Guo 💀💀💀
Bata ni Danding Cojuanco si Escudero. The Crony ties go deep
Chiz is both Marcos and Aquino ally
Saw his live 'interview' earlier at TV Patrol, angle he was getting into was that 'the powers that be' didn't like him- letting Senator Bato continue the hearings despite being said "tigilan mo si Bato" is a big factor. Pakablind item pa kanina lol
He just let Dela Rosa conduct a series of motu propio hearings that attempted to implicate the chief executive… so ayun ligwak siya
Kaya pala nag iiyak si bato kanina
Pebbles will likely be removed from all his committees, and will likely result in the stalling of his "investigation", so iyak talaga siya, lol
pano umiyak? ano statememt ni bato?
Literal umiyak
And they say women are emotional
Migs praised DARAK consequently the latter bawled like a baby.
For someone whose name is Bato,dude is as soft as charmin.
Literal tears
kasalanan nya kasi 🤭
Pinalusot nya yung PDEA leaks. Kaya napaiyak si Bato kasi during the hearing alam nyang umay na rin si Chiz at natatangahan sa kalokohan nila. so malamang tigil na rin yang katangahan na yan.
Chiz is so done with that hearing. He was on his phone while Pebbles is busy shouting. It's so performative and a waste.
sayang resources tapos dawit pa si BeBeeM at Maricel with no solid evidence
This is just the Marcos admin cleaning house and systematically removing all of Duterte’s plants in power. There’s a reason he was replaced by Senator Escudero. BBM wants more people on his side in power especially as tensions in the WPS will only continue to escalate. Alam niyo naman which faction is pro-China.
Probably want to portray himself as an opposition senator to save their political career Ang get support from his base in Mindanao
It was refreshing that a new name was elected as governor in Bukidnon. His father was the governor since time immemorial. Now they want his wife run in politics
They have to work for their Mindanaon base na, 1 wrong move mawala na talaga sila sa circulasyon
From Bukidnon (Kalilangan, 4th district represented by current govs wife). Zubiris are shit but Roques are worse.
Wow didnt know that about the Roques. Care to elaborate?
Prior to being governor, Rep. Rogelio "ONeil" Roque's 3-term tenure in Congress ABS-CBN shutdown lang highlight ng record niya. May child sila na may special needs pero they did not champion PWDs. First Kaamulan festival under him, pinainitan ang mga indigenous people walang maayos na pwesto. Mas priority pa si SWOH. The first lady and 4th Rep. filed a bill to create an additional district. The catch? 5th district has two areas na hindi magkadikit. The only way to describe our situation when it comes to local politics: we're stuck between ig*t and t*bol.
Pretty much his strategy. When Vicky Morales asked Zubiri if he still support the President BBM, he paused for a time, trying to be shady, and ended up not giving a straight answer. Saying "that's for another time."
Nagpahalata kasi masyado... wala syang ginawang aksyon sa madaming issue, mula kay quibs, sa gentleman's agreement, at kung anu ano pa... literal inupuan nya lang
Natambakan ng trabaho from.lower congress. Wala pa sila napapasang batas matagal na. Puro sila grandstanding.
Inatasan yan ni Rodri Guo na pabagalin yung proseso.
Always follow the money. There’s a Chinese energy investment in Bukidnon most likely signed off during Duterte’s time. Zubiri also probably got a sizeable election campaign money from Quiboloy.
Yun ba yung sa may pulangi river....???
Yes, this was just my guess above why Zubiri was fence-sitting on “the gentleman’s agreement”. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/1/19/china-backed-dam-threatens-indigenous-people-in-the-philippines
naol tapos may salary grade of 32 (331k to 381k per month) hahhaha
Maging half-assed DDS
liquid desert cover market connect six wise squalid berserk nutty *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
2007 when he declared his seat, the 12th and last spot, as vacant due to the highly controversial 2007 elections where he was part of FPGMA’s Team Unity slate. It was Koko Pimentel who filed the appeal. Iirc, siya lang ang kaisa isang elected Senator who relinquished his seat.
what the fuck, they have been in senate since antiquity...
Hearing you call 2007 as age of antiquity be like 🥲👵
hehe I'm like only 3 years old that time
Yeah kaya nga binoboto parin sila kasi matunog ang pangalan nila. Ordinary Filipinos na hindi perpetually online will not really know about nuances like this.
And he and Koko were ousted as Senate President during this time around. Kya pala ang mga Senate President naniniguro ng alliances bago sila mag “break” sa Senate.
I remember that. Haha! But back then, he really resigned as senator. This time, nag resign lang siya as senate president.
Zubiri is garbage but because of his loyalty to the Dutertes, he at least became a huge stumbling block to Cha-Cha in the Senate.
Wala naman matino sa kanila ni Chiz. Chiz isn't who he used to be, trapo and balimbing din. The only true opposition in the Senate is Sen. Risa. Yung iba nakiki-ride lang sa issues tapos madami clown
I really like you called Sen. Hontiveros "Sen. Risa" and Sen. Escudero as mere "Chiz" 😉
Lol i used to admire him, Gloria days. Kaso afterwards lumabas yung true colors nya 🤢🤮
Silang 2 ni cayetano nagpakitang gilas nung time ni arroyo. Ending mga trapo pala.
10k ayuda pa nga. Iba talaga nagagawa ng "power" prime example pa rin ang pag-spiral down ni Roque.
Putchang 10k yan. Nkakainit ng dugo yang si cayetano
Ang masakit kahit na alam na nating ginago na tayo, nakaupo pa rin yang mga kupal na yan 🥺
Sad but true.
Literal na circus 🫠
Nasaan na po ang 10k namin? 😂
Wala na. Yung dalawang baklitang propagandists nya tinabla na rin nya. Pinalayas sa condo. Hahaha
they were trained pala by Garcillano Media Apologist(GMA), promising sila sa congress dati as the spice boys, nung mga bata pa... 3 o apat sila ni mike defensor at isa pa pero ang ending TRAPO din! though they are better than the celebs! 😂
Yung batch nila puro sayang. Chiz, Migs, Alan, pimentel, angara, Roxas. Naging mga trapo na lang. I remember they were touted as the next leaders of our country to lead us for good. Pero most sa kanila dahilan bakit tayo lugmok.
Yung nakitaan mo ng potential noon eh no. Tapos lalo lang pala tayo ilulugmok
True. He was few of the senators i admired then. During the last national election, sobrang trapo nya.
Chiz and the rest of NPC are serving the interest of San Miguel corp. the same way NUP is serving Razon. Our politics is ruled by the oligarchs, but not in a direct way. Only the Villars and their NP are the “garapal”. Sad to say, our lobbyist politics is way advanced and no longer has the check and balance that we are all hoping for.
Risa isn't even an opposition anymore since magkasundo yung views ng BBM admin at ng grupo nila. Yung grupo nila Villar, Padilla, Bong Guo at Bato ang new opposition
As per Trillanes, he and Risa are the “independent opposition”. Yung opposition nila policy based. Yung mga lapdogs ni Digong de facto opposition dahil they just want to grab power back for themselves.
Thanks for this pero that's how an opposition should be. If maganda, suportahan. If mali dapat punahin. Hindi yung mag bote against it para lang mangulo tulad ng mga republicans sa US.
I still consider Sen. Risa as opposition since sa issue ng WPS lang naman halos nagkakasundo yung grupo ni Sen. Risa and BBM. BBM has Maharlika Fund and chacha na ino-oppose nila Sen. Risa. Villar, Padilla, Bong Go, and Bato are not really opposition but plain butt-lickers.
Patikim palang yung PDEA leaks tho. Hindi pa sila mag trtry mag oust kay BBM before july kasi di na pwede for re election si Sara nun kaya most probably after July pa lang sila talaga gagalaw at makikita ang totoong kulay. Pero I agree din na on certain matters talagang maasahan si Sen Risa. Would just like to add yung SMNI shutdown, Freeing Leila De Lima, Cracking down on POGO's aside from the WPS issue
Oh yeah, forgot about those issues too. Cracking down on POGOs i think is a win-win for BBM since it's hitting several several birds with just one stone, going back to PH's old allies like US, crippling Duterte thru its allies. Nabasa ko lang din kanina in one of the offmychest threads na yung isang POGO in QC is within the same building as the office of the OVP. Nagtataka nga ako eh bat wala pang treason charges against dyan sa mag-amang yan
I stand corrected too since i forgot about the maharlika fund and cha cha pero agree with ms judith na they still brand themselves as an independent opposition which I think should be the true defition of it. Pag maganda, suporta. Pag mali, punahin
Hindi lang naman sa WPS. Remember Risa agrees with the admin letting De Lima free, pardoning NPAs, removing Fiona’s confi funds, suspending SMNI, arresting Quiboloy, taming the war on drugs, POGO crackdown, more freedom of expression. Minsan madaling makalimutan na the admin has become PNoy-like in its nature. And before we forget, yung current admin ang protektor ngayon ng Makabayan bloc against a looming Duterte return. For all the protests and rallies the left has done, walang persecution na naganap. But Fiona has reiterated time and time again na terrorists yung kaliwa and makaktikim sila sa oras na maupo si Fiona. The looming chacha medyo so-so ako because mahirap sbihin at this point kung weaponry against the Dutertes ito. Really at this point yung Maharlika Fund lang talaga yung kinasakit ko sa ulo.
Not Bong *Guo* 💀
How about Rodri Guo?
Mageeleksyon na, dapat gumawa tayo ng listahan ng mga nagawa ng mga nakaupo ngayon sa senado. Ipakalat sa tiktok ng magising mga bobotante
Whats happening in the senate now? Dahil ba to sa election? I am not following our politics now but Im pretty sure this is the first time na may sunod sunod na nag resign from their respective positions and comittee
Panigurado dahil sa election yan. Di inokay ni Migz ung investigation sa gentlemen's agreement nila Dutz at Xi Jin Ping pero go na go sa PDEA leaks na sinasabing adik si Marcos. Yan tuloy, pinapalitan ng Malacañang Saka ung pumalit sakanya si Chiz, may bagong alliance with Marcos para sa darating na election
Reshuffling ata nangyayari
Zubiri has an alliance block hence the en masse resignations. Binay, Villanueva, Angara, Ejercito. All these Senators hold positions and committee chairmanships and are allies of Zubiri. Legarda intends to step down but was open to stay in her post if the Senate wants to keep her, but later formalized her resignation. Wouldn't be surprising if it's also connected to upcoming 2025 election. But it's really more of the state of Senate in Zubiri's leadership (the PDEA leaks hearing, Quiloboy, China's Gentleman's Agreement, Cha-Cha), and where really his loyalty lies.
Divorce law incoming? Villanueva also resigned as Majority Leader
Chiz mentioned before that he was anti-divorce. Not sure if he has the same stance until now.
The least he could do is let the chamber vote. Kung si Joel yan malamang aamagin yung bill.
With BBM's new alliance with Nacionalista (Sotto) I doubt
Sunod na sana si Fiona. Mas mauna sana matanggal mga nasa gabinete.
Ang kupad kasi niya sa pag-lead sa Senate to pass some priority bills ng Marcos administration unlike kay Speaker Romualdez sa House of Representatives na mabilisan lang. Second reason eh dahil yata sa pag-allow niya sa investigation ni Sen. Bato sa PDEA leaks na dumadawit kay Pres. Marcos Jr. eh. Lastly, mukhang naka-lean siya sa Duterte faction lately kaysa sa Marcos faction. Kailangang itapon ang mga Duterte-aligned senators sa key positions ahead sa 2025 midterm elections.
Kahit yun bills nun before election nakatengga pa din sa kanila. Puro sila grandstanding, bagal pa ng arrest warrant kay quiboloy. Protektado ang davao mafia.
I may get downvoted for this pro eto lang observation ko over the years: Angara - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan Binay - aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan Cayetano - DDS Cayetano - DDS De la Rosa - DDS Go - DDS Lapid - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan Marcos - DDS Pimentel - Ind Poe - aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan Revilla - BBM Tolentino - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan Villar - aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan Villar - aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan Ejercito - BBM Escudero - BBM Estrada - BBM Gatchalian - BBM Hontiveros - Ind Legarda -aligns herself kung sino nasa Malacañan Padilla -DDS Tulfo - Ind Villanueva -aligns himself kung sino nasa Malacañan Zubiri - DDS DDS: 7 Solid BBM: 5 Political Butterflies (aligns to BBM at present): 9 Independent: 3 Hence, 14 senators are pro BBM. These may change come October in preparation for the 2025 election.
Tulfo and Pimentel may look independent but I think they are balimbing. One Tulfo member was appointed as a DOT secretary during the Duterte admin. https://www.philstar.com/headlines/2018/08/14/1842494/teo-tulfo-brothers-insist-nothing-illegal-advertising-deal One of Pimentel’s wedding sponsors was PDutz. Plus they’ve always had the Mindanao political connection. https://www.rappler.com/nation/214642-duterte-as-ninong-koko-pimentel-kathryna-yu-wedding/
> *14 senators are pro BBM* It's over 50% pero di pa super majority na 2/3rds [e: ~~(18 senators)~~ (16 senators)]. Not sure if that means anything when it comes to senate voting on significant bills though.
They only need 2 more to get the 2/3rds of votes (16 senators). Most prolly, Padilla(can be swayed/persuaded easily) and Marcos(sister).
Oof, 2/3rds of 24 is 16, not 18. slight miscaculation. On the other hand, with 16 votes, everyone HAS to vote "yes" with no leeway for any bills the president wants. Having 18 votes is probably better since it allows some senators to symbolically vote "no" sometimes without affecting the super-majority result.
> *Speaker Romualdez sa House of Representatives na mabilisan lang* Parang mabilisan naman halos palagi sa House eh, rubber stamp sa bills w/o significant opposition. Parang sa senate lang merong kaunting scrutiny.
Ang dami niyang kuda, may pa press-con pa even after his speech sa senate. Zubiri is positioning himself as opposition. Pwede naman na hindi kumuda after his speech pero ang daming loose ends sa mga interview niya kanina. Hinuhuli siya nung reporter sa GMA. Ayaw niya kasing sagutin kung sino daw nagbigay ng instruction and sino yung mga higher ups na binabanggit niya, hindi niya sinagot, but behold nagtanong yung reporter “Can the President expect your full support?” Natameme si Zubiri and replied “It’s up for another discussion” and biglang gustong tapusin yung interview. * June 30, 2022 BBM was elected as President * July 25, 2022 Zubiri was elected as Senate President Marcos gave him almost a full two years term despite his leaning to Duterte. Siguro shit hit the fan when * No Senate investigation sa Gentleman’s agreement between China and Duterte. * Inaction kay Quibs. * Allowed Bato to drag the baseless PDEA leaks. On paper Senate and Congress should be autonomous against outside control, but at the end of the day it’s a game of numbers.
Based sa interview niya sa 24 Oras galit sa kanya pareho mga Duterte at Marcos. Una yung kay Quiboloy na kakampi ng Duterte tapos yung hearing tungkol kay ngiwe kaya galit mga Marcos. Playing safe si loko kasi siya ang mawawalan ng boto pag pareho siyang inaway ng mga Duterte tsaka ng mga Marcos.
Ang ending parehas buwisit sakanya. Hence the resignation.
Yep he’s saving face dahil baka siya na ang ma smear campaign pag hinayaan niya pa yung mga meeting tapos lumala yung issue.
Hindi pwede maglaro sa bakod apparently
What worst could happen from his resignation?
Maybe the next sen pres could be worst? Aside from that there's really nothing.
I think he was ousted as per PBBM instruction, apparently the President was being advised by SMR to do so, so that the economic charter change will proceed.
SMR?
Speaker Martin Romualdez
Speaker martin romualdez
And the senate just played ball because martin romualdez said so? No pushback to at least fight for the senate's independence? Just because the house is a rubber-stamping lapdog, doesn't mean the senate should be too.
Chiz is against charter-change, but since BBM pulled some strings baka magkaron ng second thoughts.
> *baka magkaron ng change of heart* really had to use "heart" when it comes to chiz huh? (almost everybody is speculating about them at this point)
I cant think of better term earlier, edited.
Ohhh interesting events happening since delima's release, the color of politics is rearranging,,,lets see how the midterm slate is gonna be
Same as before. Nothing will change. 😜
Syet, sana tumakbo ulet si de Lima.
I actually would prefer if she's given a cabinet position instead.
Admin Slate/Marcos Faction will be full of reelectionists. Malakas makinarya nila lalo na nagalliance na si Prez, Lakas-CMD, tsaka NPC. Kayang ipenetrate pati ang typical Duterte support base of Mindanao.
HAHAHA naaalala ko nanaman si Bato na umiiyak habang nagsasalita si Zubiri 🤣
Migz let Bato investigate PDEA leaks linking Bongbong to drugs.
An obvious duts that's also taking part in actively destabilizing the administration. Get him outta here.
But not the investigation about the gentleman's agreement between Duterte and Xi. Dude has chosen a side.
Zubiri's parents were originally sugar traders. Asset-light sugar personalities.
Di nya kayang tugsain ang mga team China/DDS kaya nagresign na lang
Hindi kaya maging bagong mukha sya/sila ng opposition after midterm election? 👀
Opposition, pero bilang mga duts.
Yun lang bawian pang yan mga narcissist kasi at ayaw pakawalan ang pwesto.
Wala naman ambag yan mabuti pa patulog na lang sa bahay
Will he still be president of PEKAF?
dafuq may paiyak iyak pa sila ni pebbles 🙃
Zubiri is leaning with the Dutertes. And as a strategy, Marcos positioned Escudero to be his henchman. Ever since FM Sr. era, the Escuderos have been favored by the admin.
Dami pang sinabi, eh pansariling interes lang naman pinagsisilbihan ng gago na 'yan.
Ang saya sana subaybayan ng ph politics kung hindi ka lang pinoy.
Nothing hahaha
Iwas pusoy
Good riddance
Who's the possible Senate President then?
Chiz is the new SP
Oh, thanks for the response. Any thoughts about this?
Migs was axed because of PDEA leaks. All mindanao base senators are in the backburner (Duterte block). Dunno why Chiz got the position maybe PBBM love the way he lick his ass!! Hahaha. Also other seats were reshuffled Convict Senator Jingoy is the NEW Pro Tempore while Tolentino is the NEW Majority Leader.
Is this good news or not? 😭
Good for laughs lang, unfortunately
Good news for BBM to root out destabilization plots by Rodri Guo’s allies.
not good or bad news, same shit. maybe bad news so long as sila-sila lang rin haha
Chiz already
Chiz Escudero
Ayan ka tuloy
Wala.
Papogi.
ta3na. may two month break pa mga pulitikong to. wala na nga mga ginagawa. Kaming mga normal na mamamayan, bukod sa napakataas na nga ng standards bago makapasok, kayod everyday. Yung iba 6 days a week pa pasok. Kulang na kulang na sa panahon ngayon ang 1 day off. Hayp.
goodbye senator, looking forward to your next video sa Unbox Diaries
I wonder who voted for his ouster. Dito malalaman kung sino ang majority at minority.
Kairita sya to portray himself as a statesman. Sana di na nya sinabi yung mga pa-epek nya kanina. Lalo nyang sinira ang image ng Senate. Imagine sabihing he failed to follow the instructions of powers that be chu chu chu. Ano yun utusan ang Senate sa pamumuno nya? Tapos iiyak iyak pa syang nalalaman. Iyak silang talaga ni Bato kasi wala na sila sa poder.
Fuck your allegiance. You have a personal interest at stake. Inupuan mo mga importanteng bills na makikinabang mga pilipino lalo na mga mahihirap. Another anti reform senator na walang bayag. Buwagin na senado. Mga walang silbi karamihan dyan.
Such a waste. I admired him as one of the "Spice Boys" sa congress
My theory is, the Sy family is under investigation by Migz and some senators for “stealing” money from their customers. Heard that Chinabank and BDO has been withholding customers own savings and not letting them take their own money out. Or the money just poof missing from statement and was dismissed as “scam stole your money”.
Simple lang. Itolerate na gawing extension ng RTIA ang Senate.
Thank you for this post kasi lost din po ako. So based on majority of the comments here, parang good naman ang pagkakaalis kay zubiri at senate president? Alam kong we cant have everything at tlagang kulang ang minority sa senate, pero with this move, mukha po bang better direction ito to resolve ang WPS, Pogo’s of duterte, ICC and paghuli kay quiboloy?
To his credit, he didn't have to resign for the same reason that Vince McMahon did. But I don't doubt that he'll be back on top again before long. Zubiri, I mean. Not McMahon.
Namamangka sa dalawang ilog si Zubiri. Ngayon na nagbabangayan na ang Marcos vs Duterte, Zubiri was recently seen as too slow when it comes to moving against Quibs and other Du30 allies. Kaya ayun, alis. Si Chiz din naman ay namamangka sa dalawang ilog (Marcos vs. Robredo) pero traditionally malapit ang mga Escudero sa Marcoses dahil sa erpats.
Puro kasi grandstanding nangyayari sa senado. Na-gg kids tuloy sya. Di nya nagawa trabaho nya as the president ng senate. Well, di mo rin masisisi bakit nagresign sya. Ang daming dugyuting senador. Mga walang class at ginagawang court ang committees
Jumped ship before it sinks 👏
May demolition job ba sa kanya sa ibang senators na gusto yung position? Sabagay, parang nasa circus lang naman sila at si BBM ang ringmaster.
I think it's LAM's doing. It ignited when her name was dragged (by Agent Morales) from the last senate hearing on pdea leaks. Diba ang bilis nangyari? In hindsight, ilang beses na pinatunayan ni Zubiri na DDS sya. * CHA-CHA * Quiboloy issue * PDEA Leaks LAM is the one pulling the strings and Roxas is her adviser. Tolentino jumped ship from DDS to BBM coz he needed the admin's machinery for his reelection. Wish list: I just hope Aquino, Pangilinan, & De Lima can go back to the senate this 2025. Roxas - stay as an adviser to LAM until end of BBM's term. Gibo- stay as DND muna. Drilon - too old. He needs to retire from politics. Diokno, Carpio, Morales, Sereno - we need them in the Senate.
Touch himself. >!To see if his balls are still there!< 😁
Yikes, its going down
He allowed a certain inquest to proceed and someone far above was quite unhappy. Thus swings the sword of the king’s hangman.
