MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador whose TikTok, Facebook and Google Accounts were taken down for unknown reasons found a strange bedfellow in the person of Nobel Prize winner and Rappler CEO Maria Ressa.

Just hours after Labador’s TikTok, Facebook and Google accounts were taken down for unclear reasons, Ressa came to his defense, saying that what happened to the hunk is an attack on free speech.

Ressa is a known advocate for freedom of speech and of the press.

“I call on TikTok, Meta and Google to immediately restore Labador’s accounts in the interest of freedom of information and against censorship,” Ressa told The Adobo Chronicles.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk, owner of X (formerly Twitter), offered Labador a complimentary verified check mark for his account. “I am waiving the required $11.00 fee that we charge for the blue check mark,” he said.

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Filipino drag artist Pura Luka Vega may have been declared persona non grata in Manila and many other Philippine cities, but he continues to do what he does best: impersonate characters and personalities.

Case in point, Vega impersonated Slovenian player and namesake Luka Doncic in a recent FIBA World Cup game in Manila.

Nobody recognized Vega, not even when he was ejected after receiving his second technical foul during the quarterfinal match against Canada.

Moral of the story: those persona non grata declarations don’t have teeth.
