1996 Miss Universe Alicia Machado

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Venezuelan-born beauty queen Alicia Machado became a U.S. citizen  very recently, and when Miss Universe 1996 casts her first vote in November, it won’t be for the man who once insulted her for her weight and her accent.  Trump had once called her “Miss Piggy” and “Miss Housekeeping.”

Today, during the first U.S. presidential debate, Miss Machado figured prominently when Hillary Clinton mentioned her (after Trump asked) when she talked about how Donald Trump denigrates women.

Tonight, Miss Machado must be reminiscing her coronation night, waving to the crowd while secretly  giving the former owner of the Miss Universe Organization a middle finger.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Who is more powerful than the president of the United States?  The ex-president!

The Huffington Post is reporting that on Saturday, following the dedication of the new Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture on the National Mall in Washington, former President George W. Bush asked President Barack Obama to snap a picture of him with someone attending the ceremony.

Obama was shaking hands when Bush tapped him on the back and made the request. After fumbling around with the phone a bit, the president happily obliged.

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Filipino wrestling fans defended their turf with chants of “Dutere” after being taunted by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) star Chris Jericho during the SM Mall of Asia Arena house show Saturday night.

The Canadian wrestler threw insults at the Philippines, saying, “I haven’t been to the Philippines for eight years and I hope I don’t have to come back for another eight years because the Philippines stinks.”  “The Philippines stinks man, and Manila is the anus,” he added.

Amid cheers and boos, chants of “Duterte” rose up from the crowd, and the rest of the arena enthusiastically followed suit.

A Filipino wrestling fan in the crowd defended the Canadian, saying that indeed, “the Philippines stinks, thanks to the containers of Canadian trash that continue to sit at the Subic and Manila ports.

The trash was imported from Canada in 2013 by  a local company thinking that the goods were recycled materials.

After Saturday’s wrestling event, Jericho was detained by the Philippines’ Bureau of Immigration (BOI).

BOI told The Adobo Chronicles that Jericho will be deported back to his home country in one of the containers of Canadian trash.

Well. that stinks!
