hi! can someone help me find 5 summary leads that are different news? (just 1 lead for each summary lead) 🥹

Former president Rodrigo Duterte will skip tomorrow’s House quad committee hearing despite the invitation sent to him. His lawyer says Duterte is not feeling well and needs to rest. @here

The Vice President’s camp must be in panic mode, as recent surveys showed her dwindling popularity. A survey conducted in September revealed that 38% of Filipino respondents identified themselves as “pro-Marcos” while only 15% identified themselves as “pro-Duterte.” https://www.rappler.com/newsbreak/in-depth/sara-duterte-meltdown-political-implications/ @here

The President's son, House Senior Deputy Majority Leader Sandro Marcos, fights back, says VP Sara Duterte "crossed the line" when she threatened to exhume dictator Marcos Sr.'s body and throw it into the West PH Sea, and talked about her daydream of decapitating Marcos Jr. @here

Curious that it's the youngest Ferdinand Marcos/Romualdez in politics (the other two being the President and the House Speaker) who the administration sends forth to respond to the Vice President's tirades.

The President has always tiptoed when it comes to speaking against Sara, while Speaker Romualdez has consistently used his House allies to attack the VP. Maybe Sandro speaking up makes sense, although it would not be surprising had Liza Marcos talked first about Sara's meltdown last week.

On the level of optics/strategy, it makes sense to "protect" the President from engaging in a tit-for-tat with the Vice President. Also makes sense that the Speaker himself does not engage. Better to shield the principal from gutter talk and send forth your deputies 🧐

Do we know where the senatorial candidates stand on divorce? Is there a way to know what their platforms are?

A major legal defeat for the Rosal couple of Albay. The Supreme Court affirms the Comelec decision that disqualified Noel Rosal from the 2022 gubernatorial race he had won, and Geraldine Rosal from the Legazpi mayoral race she had won, for violating the election spending ban. @here

Doomsday preacher Apollo Quiboloy arrives at the Senate ahead of the 10 am Senate probe to be led by Senator Risa Hontiveros.

Controversial doomsday preacher Apollo Quiboloy faces the Senate committee on women, children, family relations, and gender equality for the first time on Wednesday, October 23, since the panel started an investigation into his and his group's alleged abuses early this year.

Hontiveros: We pushed because of the stories I heard of young girls that we heard were being groomed into what he called pastorals, and forced to provide sexual services to this so-called son of God.

For over three decades, Teresita Valdehueza, a former follower of doomsday preacher Apollo Quiboloy, remained silent, believing that the sexual acts the pastor committed against her were normal. She felt deceived and manipulated. https://www.rappler.com/philippines/quiboloy-alleged-sexual-victim-says-fear-consumed-me/

Hi @Paul Lim Mahirap lang without specifics. =) We are monitoring the area and are looking into what the local leaders are doing in relation to the current disaster.

Thanks. We really need to be vigilant at the same time cautious. It happened in Cebu with Rama’s wedding with VP attending. And tbh wala na ako nakita follow up sa OVP after 2 days ago
