I'll never regret supporting and holding high standards for Atty. Leni Robredo. She was the best Vice President the Philippines has ever had. To be honest, I was never previously involved in political discourse; I didn't think it mattered. But during that period, I felt a passion to become informed about these issues.

I was right. After Rodrigo Duterte took office, it felt like the Philippines began a downward spiral that hasn't slowed. It's disheartening to see fake news, trolls, and continued support for the Duterte clan. Issues like POGO, the ABS-CBN shutdown, the “fake” drug war, the West Philippine Sea dispute, and more—there are no words. It’s exhausting to keep fighting for a country where so many are misled by the temporary financial gain politicians offer, the rich keep getting richer, while the poor grow even poorer, and it’s incredibly unfair. People’s taxes are being looted, with only a few benefiting from money that isn’t even rightfully theirs. And those inept senators make my blood boil.

Political dynasties have turned public service into a family business for many politicians. Are they good at their jobs? I’d bet not. It’s the same faces, the same names, yet nothing ever changes in the Philippines. Honestly, it’s both frustrating and sad to witness.

Curse them,

To those who have disrespected Atty. Leni in any way—shame on you. I made one simple post on my Facebook, and Leisan had the nerve to comment, taking cheap shots at Atty. Leni. That was a low blow, and honestly, with what Leisan has been going through lately, maybe it's just what he deserves. Any empathy I had left is now gone. Good luck
