The recent attacks on judges, lawyers and ordinary citizens, and the veiled threats against students, teachers, and journalists, unmasks the real nature of this government: anti-democratic, anti-life, and anti-justice.

PET decision on VP poll shading triumph for truth: People’s Minority Leader Rep. Miro Quimbo

The PET decision affirming the use of the 25-percent threshold is not just a victory for Vice President Leni Robredo, but it is another overwhelming triumph for truth.

Sibakin ang nagbibigay ng mali, gawa-gawang intel report tungkol sa LP: Pangilinan

Kung sinuman ang nagbibigay ng mga mali-mali at gawa-gawang intelligence report sa Pangulo ay dapat sibakin. Dapat binibigyan nila ng tamang impormasyong kailangan niyang malaman, hindi kaduda-dudang impormasyong tingin nilang gusto niyang marinig.
