IMG_0416.PNGNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Champagne started flowing at The Adobo Chronicles headquarters in San Jose, California, after the last of the 2017 Pulitzer Prize winners were announced today.

AdoboChron was proclaimed winner of this year’s Best Unbelievable News, besting other finalists like The New York Times, TIME Magazine, and CNN.

The three news giants had hoped that their entries which all depicted chaos, death and anarchy in the streets of Manila as a result of President Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs would land them the much-coveted prize.

In the end, the Pulitzer jury decided against the news giants in favor of a relatively new start-up news source, The Adobo Chronicles.

Publishers of The Adobo Chronicles announced an open-to-the-public celebration for this great honor at its headquarters on Good Friday.  There will be lost of chicken and pork adobo to go around.

 

Trump Wants Hillary Clinton Back As Secretary of State

Trump is reportedly unhappy 😔  with his man at the State Department, Rex Tillerson.

As proof of the thawing of relations between Trump and Clinton, the president followed Hillary’s advice to bomb Syrian airfields after the Assad regime launched a chemical attack on its own citizens.

Hours after Clinton made the suggestion, Trump ordered the air strikes against Syria.

Is this the beginning of the end of gridlock in the nation’s capital?

Duterte Won’t Bring Home The Bacon From Middle East State Visit

IMG_8011MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Malacañang has announced that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte will embark on a three-nation state visit to the Middle East this coming Holy Week.

It is expected that Duterte will discuss various issues that concern Filipino overseas workers in the Muslim countries while seeking to attract more investments in the Philippines just like he did in his previous state visits to various countries in the Asian region.

However, Duterte critics are already saying that this time, the president will not “bring home the bacon 🥓 ”

Which is true, because Muslims don’t eat pork.
