AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Senate Impeachment Pressure: Catholic bishops urged the Senate to start VP Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial without delay, warning against any move that looks like evasion as the chamber reels from last week’s gunfire and leadership shake-up. ICC Fugitive Standoff Fallout: The NBI released footage of the May 13 Senate shooting, with Sen. Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa still at the center of the crisis and officials trading blame over who fired first and whether “warning shots” were justified. Security vs Politics: Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro downplayed destabilization fears, saying active-duty ranks remain professional, while the Ombudsman ordered a six-month preventive suspension for Senate sergeant-at-arms Mao Aplasca. Heat and Power Strain: PAGASA flagged 44 areas under “danger” heat index levels, as Cotabato residents brace for a long scheduled power interruption. Regional Moves: ADB offered up to $1.75B to help the Philippines cushion the Middle East crisis, and Japan is reportedly considering exporting surface-to-ship missiles after Balikatan drills. Sports Spotlight: Ginebra crushed Phoenix to reach the PBA semis, while Rain or Shine also advanced after beating San Miguel.
