Weird Alliances: Marcos-Duterte-Robredo

Leave a comment

In Philippine politics, the phrase “keep your friends close and your enemies closer” isn’t just a suggestion—it’s a way of life. 

Take Sara Duterte’s recent “spontaneous” coffee date with Leni Robredo, a meet-up more surprising than seeing snow in Manila. The irony is thicker than election mudslinging, considering Sara’s camp, the UniTeam, spent months demonizing Robredo and her *kakampinks*. But hey, why hold a grudge when you can share some *pandesal*?

And let’s not forget Rodrigo Duterte, who’s suddenly feeling warm and fuzzy about Bongbong Marcos, the guy he once dismissed as a “weak” president-in-waiting with alleged vices. Duterte’s about-face is as dizzying as his war on drugs. Apparently, political amnesia is a superpower our leaders possess—after all, why remember past insults when a new alliance could be profitable?

In Philippine politics, there are no permanent enemies, only temporary inconveniences. If tomorrow, the ghost of Ninoy Aquino called a press conference with Ferdinand Marcos Sr. to announce a coalition, we probably wouldn’t even bat an eye. Because here, in the land of *balimbing* fruit, consistency is a rare and overrated commodity. Cheers to the next “spontaneous” partnership!

The Windmills Of Congressman Dan Fernandez’ Mind (video)

Ah, the Philippine House of Representatives, where serious policy discussions occasionally take a detour into what can only be described as a theatrical performance—though not the Shakespearean kind. It’s more like a kangaroo court, where legislators seem to compete not in crafting laws, but in asking the most absurd questions at committee hearings. 

Picture it: a room filled with public officials, microphones, and the occasional exasperated resource person, bracing themselves for what’s to come. Enter Representative Dan Fernandez, the star of our show, with his previous acting chops still shining through. With all the pressing national issues at hand, he zeroes in on what truly matters: Cassy Ong’s hair color. 

Forget about law enforcement, inflation, infrastructure, or economic reform—apparently, the hue of someone’s locks is the real mystery we must solve! One can almost hear the background music change to “Windmills of Your Mind” as Dan Fernandez muses on the shades of autumn leaves. “The color of your hair,” he inquires, leaving everyone bewildered, wondering if they’re in a congressional hearing or a shampoo commercial. 

So here we are, with our representatives putting on a show—just not the kind we asked for. At least it’s entertaining, right?

Sara Duterte: [nakangiti] “So, Leni, kamusta naman si BBM sa’yo noong kampanya? Mukhang close kayo ah. Ako kasi, medyo… let’s say, team ‘awkward alliance.'”

Leni Robredo: [natawa] “Naku, Sara, akala ko nga nung una, parang ‘friendly competition’ lang. Pero ‘yung friendly, nawawala pag may fake news na.”

Sara Duterte: [tumatawa] “Fake news? Ay, sa amin, normal breakfast yan! Si BBM ba naman, chill lang sa lahat, pati trolls, may full support!”

Leni Robredo: “Oo nga eh. Sa debate pa lang, akala ko makakakuha ako ng sagot, pero puro smile lang ibinibigay! Eh ikaw, kumusta ang working relationship niyo ngayon?”

Sara Duterte: [nagkibit-balikat] “Well, para kaming magkaibigan na hindi nag-uusap. Parang nasa group project kami pero ako ang gumagawa ng PPT tapos siya yung nagpe-present. Minsan nga, ‘di ko alam kung nasa meeting ba siya o hologram.”

Leni Robredo: [sumisinghap] “Grabe! Sa akin, at least, naramdaman ko yung presence niya—kahit sa dami ng trolls na sumulpot. Pero ikaw, paano mo sinasakyan ‘yung mga moment na parang… hmm, wala lang?”

Sara Duterte: “Ah, madali lang! Deadma, tapos smile for the camera. Pagbigyan na natin, Leni, mahirap din yung role niya… alam mo na, ‘the art of saying nothing’.”

Leni Robredo: “Tama ka diyan. Dapat ata nag-enroll ako sa ganung course!”
