QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The ABS-CBN television network today announced that it will soon launch a new reality show, “Where In The World Is Ronnie Dayan?”

Dayan is the former driver and alleged lover of Senator Leila De Lima who has been implicated in the illegal drug trade inside in the New Bilibid Prison  (NBP) during the senator’s term as Justice Secretary.

Despite being summoned, Dayan failed to attend today’s House of Representatives’ Justice Committee public hearing on drug operations at NBP.

Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II said that his department does not have information on Dayan’s whereabouts. This prompted ABS-CBN to quickly put together the new reality show which will feature both government and private individuals who will be searching for Dayan.  The first person who finds Dayan will be awarded One Million Pesos.

The new reality show is expected to be a hit that could surpass the record audience of GMA’s AlDub series.

Ladies And Gentlemen, The Next President Of The Philippines…

Locsin

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Rodrigo Roa Duterte has not yet been in office for a full 100 days but already, the campaign for the 2022 Philippine presidential elections has  begun.

The leading candidate? Teddy Boy Locsin — journalist, former congressman and newly-appointed Philippine ambassador to the United Nations.

Locsin surely knows the winning formula to become president: be as foul-mouthed as Duterte. Or better.

Locsin first became controversial when he despised his own national language, Tagalog, as a useless language.  Everything went downhill (or is it uphill) from there.

In recent days, he has taken to his Twitter account to bitch, to curse, to threaten and to implore the Nazis. (Parental discretion advised.)

“If it worked for President Duterte, I’m sure it would, too, for me.  I found the perfect strategy to become the next president,” Locsin told The Adobo Chronicles.

Philippines: Trillanes Wants Fellow Senators Cayetano And Pacquiao Impeached

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Article ll, Section 6 of the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines declares: The separation of Church and State shall be inviolable. Senator Antonio Trilanes wants to invoke this constitutional provision to have his colleagues Alan Cayetano and Manny Pacquiao impeached.

(Actually, senators cannot be impeached but can be removed by a two-thirds vote of all the members of the Senate.)

Trillanes called for the impeachment after photos went viral showing Cayetano, Pacquiao and others holding a bible study inside the Senate building.

“Don’t they know the law? They violated the constitution,” Trillanes said.

In response, Pacquiao said, “I know the law. It says ‘No law shall be made respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”

“So Trillanes doesn’t have any business interfering with the free exercise of my religion!”

Good point, Senator Pacquiao.

Well, sort of. If you take your bible study outside the Senate building, you’ll be just fine.

By the way, who paid for the buffet during your bible study? Just curious.
