Washington, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – President Barack Obama seems headed for even more direct confrontation with the Republicans in Congress today by revising his previous executive actions.

Already, House Republicans are taking legal action against Obama for what they are calling abuse of his constitutional authority when he issued executive actions granting some 5 Million undocumented immigrants temporary relief from deportation.

But today, Obama, speaking at the White House, said, “I am here to announce what I’m sure will be the most talked about executive action this month. I am taking an action that is fully within my legal authority. I am now granting not just temporary relief but full amnesty.”

Obama’s announcement on the eve of Thanksgiving Day was most welcome news for Cheese and Mac, the two turkeys granted full amnesty today in accordance with White House tradition.

Washington, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – Republican Representative Mo Brooks of Alabama wants to send President Obama to prison for 5 years for doing what every other modern president has done by taking executive action on immigration reform.

Brooks has introduced a bill in Congress  that would pave the way for the House to take legal action against President Obama should he issue an executive order on immigration , which he did.

Today,  Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco introduced a counter bill that would instead place Obama under house arrest for 6 years.

Pelosi’s bill would virtually assure Obama of an uninterrupted remainder (2 years) of his current term, and then some.  The additional 4 years would keep him in the White House for the duration of the house arrest.

Democrats and other supporters are rallying behind Obama’s conviction so that he can continue to stay in the White House for 4 more years, albeit under house arrest.

What a brilliant move by Pelosi to extend Obama’s term as president without having to amend the U.S. Constitution.

Manila, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Fresh from successfully defending his World Boxing Welterweight crown against American Chris Algieri, Filipino boxing champion Manny Pacquiao came home to a warm welcome from his adoring fans.

Pacquiao beat Algieri in Saturday’s (Sunday, Manila time) bout which lasted the full 12 rounds, with the Filipino boxer winning by a unanimous decision. The fight was held in Macau, China.

Fans held banners and waved miniature Philippine flags as Pacquiao stepped off his chartered plane at the infamous Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Manila.

Among those in the excited welcoming crowd was Kim Henares, commissioner of the Philippines’ Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR). Henares held a banner that said, “Welcome Home, Mabuhay and Congrats! Now, PAY UP!”

Pacquiao has been in hot water with the BIR in the past for failing to pay taxes on his earnings from previous fights in the U.S. This time, Henares was on hand to personally collect taxes from Pacquiao.

“Based on my calculation, Paquiao owes $5 Million to the BIR from this recent fight,” Henares said.

Pacquiao’s purse for this fight was worth more than $20 Million. The boxer reportedly already paid $1 Million in taxes to the Chinese government.

Asked by The Adobo Chronicles how she intends to collect the taxes due from Pacquiao, Henares said, “Cash only!”
