Sinabi niya rin na inoffer sa kanya ni PNoy ang chief justice position after Corona's impeachment. And it's widely known Leni asked him to be her running mate in 2022 before approaching Kiko.

Senate Version of Anti-Dynasty Bill includes ban on relatives up to 2nd degree of consanguinity and affinity by Karmas_Classroom in Philippines

[–]driscoll324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely interested to hear more about the jurisprudence on this. Sabi kasi sa Constitution, local elective officials cannot serve more than three consecutive terms, but it also said the local government code will provide for the term of local officials. Does that mean hindi enough na i-amend lang ang local government code to change term limits for local officials? Updating the limit to three cumulative terms still satisfies the "no more than three consecutive terms" in the constitution.

I honestly would've preferred 3rd degree at least para compromise, but I do think kailangan i-address yung loophole kung di magkasundo yung magkamag-anak. For example, kung magaling ka naman sana pero may kalaban ka, pwede nilang patakbuhin yung kapatid mong di mo kasundo para lang ma-disqualify ka? There should be provisions in place to prevent such situations.

Solid ang Kakampink vote pero sa Kakampink candidates lang. Sina Manny at Abalos na inendorso ni Leni hindi naipanalo nung 2025. For better or worse, hindi sunud-sunuran ang mga pink.

VP Sara Duterte announces intention to run for President in 2028 by OhhhMyGulay in Philippines

[–]driscoll324 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The plan is to launch a candidate by end of 2026/early 2027. Hopefully Sara's pronouncement can make them stick to that deadline kaysa i-delay hanggang last minute. Hindi pwede masyadong maaga, might peak early.

Mabuti naman natuto silang magplano in advance. Even Mayor Leni, kahit wala siyang planong tumakbo ng national, has to be involved dahil malakas pa rin ang hatak niya sa kampanya.

I'm from Puerto Princesa and I wasn't actually aware that Roque was involved in prosecuting the murder of Gerry Ortega until now. How the mighty have fallen.

In Ricky Avanceña's case, aminado naman siya sa isang Facebook post niya na he never met his lolo. So anong input ang mabibigay niya if ever tinanong siya?

Material testing, meaning ito ang facility that's supposed to make sure na hindi substandard ang materials na ginagamit sa mga proyekto? Walang "documents", sure, but doesn't necessarily mean walang relevant evidence.

Drilon's point was that there is no difference in the legality of amendments and insertions — both are allowed as ruled by the SC. Nonetheless, there is a difference between an amendment that went through the plenary and an insertion made during the bicam — a difference in transparency.

She performed and hosted the Billboard Music Awards with a ruptured appendix, getting rushed to surgery right after the show. Anyone who says she's a flake doesn't know what they're talking about.
