MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Filipino-Australian Jim Paredes, Duterte critic and former member of the music group Apo Hiking Society, is missing!

After that viral video tape showing him berating a group of pro-Duterte youth at the EDSA 31 commeration, he hasn’t been seen around.  There are no indications that he has returned to Australia.

But finally, Paredes has given a clue on his whereabouts.

In a tweet posted several days ago, Paredes said:

But his Twitter message generated more questions than answers.  Both his fans and critics still have no clue where he is.

Speculations range from Paredes having joined the New People’s Army or Abu Sayyaf to being in an anti-Duterte rally where only 40 people were in attendance.  Others are saying that he could be vacationing in Brazil’s Amazon forest, where as a Filipino citizen, he doesn’t need a visa to visit.

Or maybe, he has decided to be a monk?

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – It seems that Donald Trump is done with his tirades against the news media, calling some of them ‘fake news.’ Now he has turned to The Oscars, the biggest single event of the year in Hollywood.

‘From the Red Carpet to the actual awards ceremony, everything is fake,” Trump said.

“How many women wear not only fake jewelry or fake designer clothes and accessories, but also fake you-know-what?  I’m sure the lesser-endowed male actors sport fake enhancements and you’ll know by grabbing them by their cr*tch,” he added.

Trump also criticized the fake announcement of the Best Picture.  Presenter Faye Dunaway announced ‘La La Land’ as the winner, only to be corrected a minute later so that the Oscar statuettes could be passed on to their rightful owners from ‘Moonlight.’

“They even gave tribute to a living person during the ‘In Memoriam’ segment. Who knows what else was fake that evening? Blackface? Whiteface?

“It’s time that America put the truth back to fake Hollywood and fake news,” Trump concluded, as he sprayed his face with some designer fake tan.
