PCOO Already Campaigning For PRRD Reelection In 2022

1E57C901-0FDC-40E7-96C4-EB9A439B90D0MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – It came straight from the horse’s mouth: the Presidential Communications Coordinating Office (PCOO) has begun campaigning to re-elect Rodrigo Duterte as President come 2022.

The 2022 campaign was officially launched on November 1, 2018 at the North Cemetery.

On her Facebook account, PCOO Undersecretary Lorriane Marie T. Badoy revealed that the PCOO team showed up in full force at the cemetery giving out water, bread, coffee and pamaypay to thousands of Filipinos who were honoring their dead.

Given the more than P1 Billion budget of PCOO, there sure would be a lot of campaign  giveaways to go around between now and 2022!

Mabuhay, PRRD! Mabuhay PCOO!

Revival Of Barter Trade In Mindanao Bad News For Bongbong Marcos

DAVAO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Davao Bureau) – The announcement by President Rodrigo Duterte of the revival of the age-old Barter Trade system in Mindanao is very bad news for former Senator Bongbong Marcos.

More specifically, Barter (the exchange of goods and services without the use of currency) renders Marcos’ pending electoral protest against Vice President Leni Robredo moot and academic.

Mindanaoans can now trade Presidential daughter and Davao City Mayor Inday Sara with Robredo to be their VP.

No such luck for the Ilocanos.

 

President Donald Trump Wants To Reverse Status Of Naturalized U.S. Citizens

9E176611-1794-49B3-BE11-C17443F94511WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – U.S. President Donald Trump just made headlines with his recent public announcement that he wants to practically end birthright citizenship.

He hinted about issuing an Executive Order that would  throw out provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution which guarantees that anyone born in the U.S. and its territories are automatically considered American citizens.

Now, to complete the scenario, and in pursuit of his campaign promise of “America First,” Trump is reportedly considering reversing the status of all naturalized citizens.

Understanding that this move will involve  millions of naturalized U.S. citizens, Trump told reporters that he’d like to start with naturalized U.S. citizens from Third World countries, including China, India, the Philippines, South America and Africa.

”I think we can wait a little bit to reverse the citizenship status of those from European countries since they look more like us, Americans,” Trump said.
