SAN FRANCISCO, California (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Scott Wiener, member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors representing the district that includes the gay Castro, refused to be interviewed by FOX News today, claiming that “FOX News is not real news,” and that the reporter is anything but.

Shortly thereafter, CNN’s Don Lemon called Wiener’s office asking the supervisor to be a guest on the openly gay “journalist’s” talk show. Wiener likewise refused, repeating what he said about FOX. “CNN is not real news, and you’re not a real journalist.”

The Adobo Chronicles® contacted Wiener to schedule an in-person interview with him to discuss issues of concern to San Francisco’s LGBT community.

We were put on Wiener’s calendar for tomorrow, at 10 a.m.

Stay tuned!

LEAKED: DONALD TRUMP’S GRAND PLAN TO GET HILLARY CLINTON ELECTED PRESIDENT

July 15, 2015 Pol Pinoy 3 Comments

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles®) – In the latest poll of the 2016 Republican candidates for president, Donald Trump has climbed up to the top spot, beating Jeb Bush by more than 2%.

Trump and Bush are the only ones with double digit numbers in the crowded field of GOP presidential candidates.

Little do voters know that Trump’s grand plan is to have Democrat Hillary Clinton elected president.

Trump, once a pro-choice, registered Democrat, is known to be a friend of the Clintons and has contributed to the Clinton campaigns and to Bill and Hillary’s foundation.

A secret document released by Wikileaks outlines Trump’s strategy of throwing his hat into the GOP presidential contenders, moving his way to the top of the crowded field and eventually becoming the Republican bet for president.

Then, in a few weeks leading up to the November, 2016 elections, Trump will drop out of the race and concede the presidency to Hillary.

And what’s in it for Trump?

According to the leaked document, Trump will be appointed by Clinton as U.S. ambassador to Switzerland (his dream job) where the bulk of the business mogul’s fortune is stashed away in local banks.

TAIWAN’S TOFU, DURIAN EXPORTS SUDDENLY SKYROCKET

TAIPEI, Taiwan (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – The Taiwanese government was pleasantly surprised when all of a sudden, its exports of tofu (soybean curd) and durian, a tropical fruit, skyrocketed. This, in just the last two weeks.

International demand for these two exports increased more than 200% with orders coming from across the globe — from The Netherlands to Australia.

What was more puzzling is the fact that importers are flying into Taiwan to personally pick up their shipment. In addition, they were buying the tofu and durian only from specific vendors.

After an extensive market analysis and investigation, Taiwan’s Ministry of Trade and Commerce traced the sudden export surge to these two vendors (see photo).

Both the tofu and durian vendors told The Adobo Chronicles® that their goods are all on backorder at the moment.
