VP Leni Robredo’s Statement On Overturn Of Roe vs. Wade!

QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau)- Outgoing Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo issued a very strong statement following the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturn of the landmark 1973 Federal abortion rights ruling, Roe vs. Wade.

In a statement issued by the Office of the Vice President, Robredo said:

“It is every woman’s right to row a boat and wade in the waters. These are inalienable rights. I applaud the U.S. Supreme Court decision and hope this puts a stop to possible similar laws or rulings in the Philippines. Mabuhay ang mga kababaihan!”

Another Guinness World Record for the Philippines!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – The Philippines has just earned another entry in the Guinness Book of World Records with the appointment of Juan Ponce Enrile as Bongbong Marcos’ Presidential Legal Adviser.

Enrile, as then Defense Secretary, helped oust Bongbong’s father, Ferdinand Marcos, Sr. during the People’s Power Revolution.

But that’s not what the world record is all about.

Enrile, 98, would be the world’s oldest living politician. Two years into the Marcos administration, Enrile would be a Centenarian, a record that would be very hard to beat.

This record, of course, is subject to fact checking by Rappler and Vera Files.
