IMG_6663.JPGWASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – Secret Service agents were baffled early this morning when they discovered several garbage bags strewn in the White House lawn facing Pennsylvania Avenue.

Upon reviewing CCTV video tapes, they found out who the culprit was: Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Clickhole.com is reporting that the bags didn’t contain garbage.  Rather, it contained Hillary’s wardrobe. Apparently, she has started to pack her belongings at her New York residence in preparation for her move into the White House.

National polls show that Clinton is on the way to a landslide victory in the November 8 U.S. presidential elections.

Clinton has been summoned by the Secret Service for questioning.

Time Magazine Names AT&T 2016 Person Of The Year

img_6613NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – If, by virtue of Citizens United, corporations are people, then Time magazine has all the right to name a corporation as its 2016 Person of the Year.  And so it did.

Just days after it was announced that AT&T is buying Time Warner — the magazine’s former parent company — for a whopping $85 Billion, Time moved up its timeline for deciding on the recipient of this annual honor.

While critics say that it was a conflict of interest for Time to name the new owner of its former parent company as Person of the Year, the editors maintained that the award is based on the impact of a person (in this case, a company) on the daily lives of people across the globe.

“What impact could be greater on people than having their telephone company influence their thoughts and opinions, even their choice of entertainment,”  the editors said.

This will also be the first in the history of Time magazine that its cover is actually an advertisement. The cover does not contain any text or teaser, just the plain old logo of AT&T.

img_6562MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – While the rest of the world is still trying to figure out what exactly President Rodrigo Roa Duterte meant by “separating from America,” both China and the Philippines today announced a new bilateral trade deal that will begin immediately.

It is well known that China is the world’s largest steel exporter and the Philippines has been importing Chinese steel to the tune of about 1.2 Million metric tons per year.

Under the new trade agreement, the Philippines will double its steel imports from China.

In return, China will import 1 Million metric tons of pork and chicken adobo this year, subject to a 15 percent increase in the coming years.

The Philippines needs the steel to boost its infrastructure boom while China says that there is a huge demand for Filipino adobo among the Chinese people who just can’t perfect the art of making adobo.

Duterte told The Adobo Chronicles that the new trade agreement is reflective of a truly bilateral partnership which he said was lacking in his country’s decades-long relationship with America.
