NATIONAL ANTHEM, 'INSTRUMENTAL' LANG NOONG UNA 🇵🇭 Bago ito naging “Lupang Hinirang” na kinakanta natin ngayon, nagsimula muna ang Philippine national anthem bilang isang martsa na walang titik. Unang narinig sa publiko ang tugtugin noong June 12, 1898 sa Kawit, Cavite, sa araw ng pagdeklara ng kalayaan ng Pilipinas. Kalaunan, nabigyan ito ng mga titik mula sa tulang “Filipinas” ni Jose Palma, hanggang mabuo ang bersyong Filipino na kinikilala natin ngayon. Alamin dito ang ebolusyon ng ating pambansang awit, mula sa instrumentals hanggang sa lyrics. Bisitahin ang gmanetwork.com/news/ para sa pinakabagong mga balita.

Happy 128th of Independence mahal kong Pilipinas. Kahit kailan hindi mawawalan ng pag asa na piliin at ipaglaban ka palagi. 🇵🇭

Sobrang disappointing how Ateneo is handling this tragedy.

You don’t mess with Filipinos especially not during Independence Day. Deserved nyo ma cancel— mga ingrato. 🇵🇭

Ungrateful half bitches using The Philippines for fame and money. 🤮

Prayers for Mindanao. 🙏🏻

SOOO FUXKING AMAZIINGGGGGG!!! 🔥

Disgraced ex-SP Cayetano desperately dragged my name in a bogus BRC hearing without an iota of evidence or even a tiny bit of basis or reason except to pull me into a corruption controversy. He exposed his loathsome behavior by using overstretched innuendos. He is disgusting.

HAHAHAHA SABI NI DRAMA QUEEN SIYA NAMAN DAW ANG EEKSENA SA HAGDAN. 😂😂😂

12 SENATORS ENOUGH TO CREATE QUORUM - SC RULING The new Senate majority bloc on Wednesday cited the Supreme Court’s ruling on Avelino v. Cuenco as their legal basis for the leadership revamp in the chamber. The case involves 12 senators who held a quorum after then Senate President Jose Avelino and nine of his allies walked out of the session and replaced him with Sen. Mariano Jesus Cuenco. READ MORE: inqnews.net/AvelinoVCuenco…

EXPLANATION Why Avelino vs Cuenco 1949 is enough for a quorum of 12 Normally, the Senate has 24 senators, so quorum is 13. Senate PH Rule II says that for Senate officers: they are elected by “majority vote of all its members.” So if all 24 are counted, 12 is not enough. But the anti-Cayetano camp’s argument comes from Avelino v. Cuenco, 1949. In that case, the Supreme Court accepted the idea that because one senator was outside the country and could not participate, the Senate could be treated as having only 23 participating members. That made 12 a majority. The Supreme Court said that “an absolute majority (12)” of the Senate “less one (23)” could be quorum, and Justice Feria explained that the count may be based on “actual members or incumbents” who are not incapacitated or outside the Senate’s jurisdiction. Applied today: if Jinggoy Estrada is unable to participate because he is arrested, they can argue the working Senate is 23, not 24. So 12 becomes quorum under Avelino logic. Now add the Cayetano issue. A Senate President is not the owner of the Senate. The Senate Rules say the Senate normally meets at 3 PM on weekdays, unless the Senate decides otherwise. If a session is postponed, the Senate President must consult the Majority and Minority Leaders. And the Senate President cannot just suspend or adjourn a session by himself without a motion or resolution approved by senators present, except in the specific postponement situation. So if Cayetano refuses to preside or tries to stop the chamber from functioning, the anti-Cayetano camp can say - the chair cannot kill the chamber. That is also consistent with Avelino v. Cuenco, 1949. In that case, the Senate President abandoned the chair and did not attend. Worse, Cayetano not only was absent, he did not designate a Presiding Officer either - the Senate is not functioning. The anti-Cayetano senators continued, and the case records say the deliberate abandonment made it necessary for the remaining members to continue “in order NOT TO PARALYZE the functions of the Senate.” So the anti-Cayetano camp’s legal theory is basically this: (1) The Senate is bigger than Former SP Cayetano. (2) If he refuses to preside, and enough senators are present, the Senate can still function. (3) If Jinggoy cannot participate, Avelino gives them an argument that 12 is quorum. (4) Once quorum exists, the Senate can act on its internal organization, including committees per the Senate Rules. They are on stronger ground when reorganizing committees, because committees are part of Senate internal organization. Rule X says permanent committees are formed by the Senate after organization, including the Committee on Rules (take notice, yan ang unang call to motion ni Sotto). So what did Cayetano did wrong? Essentially by refusing to attend the Senate or any of the presiding officers (ie: Former Pro Tempore Legarda, and Former Majority Leaders), the situation became more and more similar to Avelino v. Cuenco, 1949. The former Majority could even argue that Avelino v. Cuenco, 1949 is a "special circumstance" . However, the similarities between then and now became more apparent with the former Majority leaders absence and made the arguments of the anti-Cayetano camp stronger. With this, the new Majority got their quorum and they rearranged leadership. So why only the leaderships and not the actual Senate Presidency? So the pro-Cayetano camp can ask: "If you truly have quorum, and the majority of all members, why not also elect a Senate President?" Short answer: Because of the Constitution. The Constitution makes electing a new Senate President more sensitive because it specifically requires a “majority vote of all its respective Members” for that office. The Constitution then separately says each House may choose “such other officers as it may deem necessary.” For Senate President: The Constitution itself sets the rule. The Senate President must be elected by “a majority vote of all its respective Members.” For President Pro Tempore and other officers: The Constitution does not give a specific voting threshold. It only says each House may choose “such other officers as it may deem necessary.” (Sec. 16) It also says each House may determine its own rules. That is where Senate Rule II comes in: the Senate used its rule-making power to say its officers, including the President Pro Tempore, Secretary, and Sergeant-at-Arms, are elected by majority vote of all members. LOGICAL DIFFERENCE: So the Constitution does not dictate the definition of "all members" for other Senate officers - only for the Senate President. Thus, the dictation and definition of "all members" lies on Senate Rules per the Constitution Sec. 16, "...as they deem necessary..." But with Avelino v. Cuenco 1949 coming in... The Senate PH has already defined "majority of all members" to be "active members of the Senate - that could participate" In the ruling, Justice Feria said the count may be based on the Senate’s “actual members or incumbents,” excluding those unable to discharge their duties because of death, incapacity, absence from jurisdiction, or other causes making attendance impossible (ie: arrest). Feria treated the Senate as having 23 actual members, so 12 became a quorum and majority.

Not accurate. Sen Cayetano is no longer SP. With 12 senators present, a quorum was declared out of the base number of 22 since Sens de la Rosa and Estrada are outside the “coercive power” of the Senate (Avelino v Cuenco. GR No 2821). Hence, we voted to declare all positions vacant, although we could not yet elect a new SP because we lacked the 13 votes required under the Constitution.
