HOLLYWOOD, Florida (The Adobo Chronicles, Miami Bureau) – In the summer of 2015, Macy’s stopped selling Donald Trump’s line of menswear after the then presidential candidate said many Mexican immigrants were rapists or murderers.

Since the election of her father, Ivanka Trump and her branded merchandise have been dropped from several prominent American retailers, most notably Nordstrom.

Now, father and daughter are back with a vengeance. They have jointly launched a new art nouveau and avant-garde line of clothing that fashion experts are describing as “in your face.”

Well, that face is of Donald.

The new line, for both women and men, debuted at the recent San Diego Pride Parade. It will be carried by Costco, Walmart, Target and 7-Eleven stores nationwide.

Watch for it!

Leni Robredo Wants To Reinstate SONA Red Carpet

July 15, 2017 Pol Pinoy Leave a comment

QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Who could forget that inspiring and humbling moment when then Congresswoman Leni Robredo sneaked out of the red carpet ceremonies and took the back stairs to the plenary hall where NoyNoy Aquino’s State of the Nation Address (SONA) was to be delivered.

Last year, during President Rodrigo Duterte’s first SONA, the red carpet was scrapped in favor of a more simple and low-key ceremony.

It’s that time of year again. On July 24, Duterte will deliver his second SONA, and Robredo has had a change of heart and fashion sense. She wants to reinstate the red carpet.

Office of the Vice President spokesperson Georgina Hernandez told The Adobo Chronicles that Robredo so loved the blue evening gown she wore at the recent FASO gala in Los Angeles that she wants to wear it again in a closely-watched and followed public event like the SONA.

‘There was so little mainstream news media coverage of the FASO event that too few people saw how gorgeous the Vice President was in her multi-million peso blue gown,” Hernandez said. “This year’s SONA would be a perfect occasion for her to again wear that blue dress 👗.

So gird up your loins, the SONA Red Carpet Is back!

Duterte Declares A State Of War

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Every Filipino knows the proper way of displaying the Philippines 🇵🇭 flag: the blue stripe on top and the red stripe at the bottom. There is only one situation in which the colors can be reversed — when the country is in a state of war.

Today, President Rodrigo Duterte declared a state of war not through an upside down display of the flag but of the official seal of the Office of the President (see photo.)

Malacañang told The Adobo Chronicles that he has had it with the Yellowtards and has — albeit reluctantly — launched an all-out war against those who have obnoxiously opposed him and his reform programs, especially his anti-drug and anti-corruption campaigns.

As part of his official declaration, Duterte urged his social media warriors to crush the opposition, especially those whose statements and actions are aimed at destabilizing the legitimate government while compromising the extremely popular will of the supermajority of Filipinos.
