Oh, what a day to be a Filipino! Just when you thought national pride was all about adobo and Manny Pacquiao, along come some of our very own people, ready to roll out the red carpet for China in the latest West Philippine Sea saga. 🇨🇳🚩
Some of these people are justifying why it’s totally okay for the big bully to play in our backyard. And why not? Who needs sovereignty and territorial rights when you can have a masterclass in ‘How to be a Cheerleader to Your Bully 101’? 🎭📚
The logic is simple: Why stand up to a giant when you can just give away your lunch money and hope they’ll be your best friend? It’s the classic case of ‘if you can’t beat them, join them.’ 😂
Except, in this episode, instead of joining them, some Filipinos cheer them on as they build sandcastles on our beach! 🏖️🏰
So here’s to our Kababayans championing China’s cause – you might not have a chapter in our history books, but you’ll definitely make it to the footnotes of ‘How to Win Friends and Influence People (to Take Your Stuff).’ 📖👏
Atty. Glenn Chong (seen in this YouTube screen capture with Bb. Maharlika in California), the valiant crusader against Smartmatic’s election machinations, has embarked on a grand U.S. escapade, armed not with ballots, but with a purported written declaration that seems to have missed its destination by a wide margin.
Much to the surprise of those expecting a damning exposé on Smartmatic’s misdeeds in Philippine elections, Chong’s magnum opus is slated to play a supporting role in a courtroom drama across the Pacific.
In a delightful twist, Chong’s revelations won’t be the protagonist in the saga against Smartmatic; instead, they’ll be cast as the unlikely defense in a lawsuit filed by Smartmatic against the media company One America News Network (OANN).
The irony drips thicker than the ink on Chong’s declaration as OANN fights allegations of defaming Smartmatic for their coverage of the 2020 U.S. presidential elections.
Perhaps Chong, the gallant knight of anti-Smartmatic lore, could find a more fitting quest in aiding the U.S. prosecution against former Comelec chief Andy Bautista (who faces charges of bribery and money-laundering.) But, one wonders, will Chong’s truth-seeking sword be sharp enough for U.S. prosecutors, or will it prove to be a mere useless prop in this transcontinental political theater?
Time will tell if Chong’s journey across the seas leads to a heroic showdown or a satirical plot twist.
