How the British monarchy deals with assassination attempts: in 1994, Prince Charles, now King, was shot at during a visit to Sydney, Australia. He was unfazed, adjusting his cuffs as security reacted.

ON THE FILING OF A COMPLAINT BY ATTY. MANS CARPIO, HUSBAND OF VICE PRESIDENT SARA DUTERTE: Kahit sino ay pwedeng mag-file ng kaso. We respect that right and we will answer the allegations in the proper forum. At the same time, I have to emphasize that the House Committee on Justice is merely fulfilling its duty. Ang aming kapangyarihan ay mismong galing sa ating Konstitusyon na mag-conduct ng hearing, at mismong sa Rules ng House ay meron tayong power to issue and to compel the production of documents and witnesses. Atty. Carpio is married to the Vice President and under our laws, their properties are communal in nature. So, there should be every reason to look into the properties of both spouses. At the same time, kailangan din nating makita, based on what was alleged in the complaint, kung ano talaga ang basis for those claims of unexplained wealth. Klaro naman na iyong inilabas ng AMLC ay mga covered and suspicious transactions. Wala namang inilabas na any specific accounts. These are required because of the charges filed before us which are contained in the impeachment complaints. Papaano natin malalaman kung may basehan 'yon kung hindi naman ma-i-po-produce ang mga records na 'yon. The Committee has given them every opportunity to appear and participate. And if they want to really say anything about the evidence, then that's the proper forum for them to participate in.

Melania is the most pretentious First Lady the US has in history.
CONSEQUENCE@consequence

Jimmy Kimmel responded directly to Melania Trump during his opening monologue on Monday night after the First Lady called for his firing: "I agree that hateful and violent rhetoric is something we should reject. I do. And I think a great place to start to dial that back would be to have a conversation with your husband about it." "You know how sometimes you wake up in the morning and the First Lady puts out a statement demanding you be fired from your job? We've all been there, right? What a day. "As you know, they had to cancel the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington on Saturday night after a man with multiple guns and knives crashed the party and may have shot a Secret Service officer. Fortunately, the guy was wearing a bulletproof vest and is okay. He was charged today. No one was hurt, thank goodness. A lot of people were shaken up on a night that is supposed to be light-hearted. "The White House Correspondents' Dinner, if you don't know, it used to be an annual event before Trump showed up, but every year they'd have a comedian roast the room. The President, the Vice President, members of the press—everybody got roasted. I did it once; I hosted it. It was a lot of fun. "But this year they said, 'No comedian. We're bringing in a mentalist instead.' So on Thursday, three days before the event, in order to keep that cherished tradition alive, I did my own version of the correspondents' dinner on my show. I put on a tuxedo. We pretended we had an audience of luminaries. We used old footage of the Trumps, of Pete Hegseth, J.D. Vance, Kid Rock, Vanilla Ice, all the members of his cabinet, and we made it seem like they were all together in a room. We had a little roast. "Again, this was Thursday, and there was no big reaction to it until this morning when I greeted the day facing yet another Twitter vomit storm, and a call to fire me from our First Lady, Melania Trump, saying I should be fired because of a joke I made, again, five nights ago. "It was a pretend roast. I said, 'Our First Lady, Melania, is here. Look at her. So beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.' Which obviously was a joke about their age difference and the look of joy we see on her face every time they're together. It was a very light roast joke about the fact that he's almost 80 and she's younger than I am. It was not, by any stretch of the definition, a call to assassination, and they know that. I've been very vocal for many years speaking out against gun violence in particular. "But I understand that the First Lady had a stressful experience over the weekend, and probably every weekend is pretty stressful in that house. And also, I agree that hateful and violent rhetoric is something we should reject. I do. And I think a great place to start to dial that back would be to have a conversation with your husband about it... because, by the way, I also should point out: Donald Trump is allowed to say whatever he wants to say, as are you, and as am I, as are all of us. Because under the First Amendment, we have as Americans a right to free speech."

The U.S. Embassy recently alerted Philippine law enforcement agencies about fraudulent activity, which led to the arrest of a U.S. visa applicant. Reminder: When consular officers find fraudulent Philippine documents in a visa application, the U.S. Embassy alerts Philippine government partners. Report visa scams and fraud to FPMManila@state.gov.

Aklan Gov. Miraflores said when he brought up the bridge project to PBBM again, “He  was surprised that it was approved without public consultations. In fact, he even said, ‘Dapat nagkaron ng public hearing.'” businessmirror.com.ph/2026/04/27/bor…

“Shots fired,” screamed the Secret Service agents. President Trump and Cabinet members were escorted out of the main ballroom by the Secret Service and the U.S. Marshals.

So weird to hear a President briefing the press about a criminal incident. Ang daming ek-ek. 'I fought like hell this day.' 🙄
