President Rodrigo Duterte had always been under media scrutiny - not only here
in the Philippines but also abroad - even before he rose to power as the
country’s chief executive in the 2016 national elections.
Duterte at Valdai forum: Long tirade vs drugs, joke about 'killing girls'
When he
surrendered our sovereignty to China over some of our richest and most
strategic territorial waters, he not only committed treason outright, but
launched himself on a continuing crime of national betrayal.
International relations are not built on drunken macho street-talk that Duterte
has been used to all his life as a mayor in the country’s southern backwaters.
Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo says enough leeway should be given to
a 'Bisaya President' who 'misspeaks the Filipino language'
“General Loot, putangina mo nanalo pa ng barangay – mayor. Inambush kita, animal
ka, buhay pa rin (General Loot, you son of a bitch, you even won as barangay –
mayor. I ambushed you, you animal, but you're still alive)," he said.
In his first month as Chief Executive, Duterte accused Loot of involvement in
the drug trade, which the then-mayor denied. Loot survived an ambush in May 2018
Three years of the Duterte presidency have come and gone and one thing is
certain: Rodrigo Duterte is the country's most foul-mouthed chief executive so
far. His expletive-peppered tirades are an almost daily reality. Once on a roll,
he won't press the breaks for anyone,
not
even God. Insults are part of Duterte's performative style of governance,
and even his diplomacy.

Controversial pro-Duterte blogger Mocha Uson is back in a government post. Her
return, however, is being criticized widely by netizens, with one common
sentiment being, “This government is good at recycling garbage."

Until all election rules are harmonized, we have to contend with loophole-ridden

advantage of.
Five months after failing to get a seat in the party-list elections,
AA-Kasosyo’s first nominee Mocha Uson has been appointed by President Rodrigo
Duterte as deputy executive director of the Overseas Workers Welfare
Administration (OWWA).
After the news broke, the internet was abuzz with questions on why the
controversial blogger was appointed considering there is an appointment ban on
