Garbin Cites SC Ruling on Impeachment Amid Senate Debate

LEGAZPI CITY – June 11, 2025 — Incoming member of the House of Representatives and Legazpi City Mayor Alfredo Garbin Jr. has weighed in on the Senate’s ongoing debate over impeachment rules, citing a 2003 Supreme Court ruling that clarified the process.

Garbin emphasized that impeachment is not a single act but a process with a beginning, middle, and end — all starting in the House of Representatives. Quoting constitutional framer Fr. Joaquin Bernas, he stressed that an impeachment proceeding is initiated once a verified complaint is filed and referred to the Committee on Justice, not when the Senate receives it.

“The House has the exclusive power to initiate all impeachment cases. The Senate only begins its role once the Articles of Impeachment are transmitted,” Garbin said.

His statement underscores the House’s constitutional authority as political tension builds around potential impeachment moves.

THE MAGNIFICENT 5

Koko has proven true lineage — the firebrand son of Nene, carrying the torch with conviction.

Grace is no longer a foundling. She has found her family — the Filipino people.

Sherwin may be a plastic prince, but this time, he wins my support for showing grit beneath the gloss.

Nancy Binay rises above her name — the quiet strength of the Binay legacy with a voice uniquely her own.

Risa is simply Risa — fearless, principled, unwavering. She will always stand for what is right, no matter the risk.

Five names. Five stories. One shared trait: courage.

LOLA, PATAY; 2 SUGATAN SA AKSIDENTE SA BULA

BULA, CAMARINES SUR — Patay ang isang 83-anyos na lola habang dalawa ang sugatan matapos bumangga sa puno ng niyog ang isang SUV nang makatulog sa manibela ang drayber, bandang 6:30 ng umaga, Hunyo 9, 2025.

Batay sa ulat ng Cam. Sur Police Provincial Office, binabaybay ng pulang Nissan Terra 2.5 Sport ang kalsada mula Balaogan, Bula patungong Legazpi City, nang lumihis ang sasakyan sa gutter at diretsong bumangga sa puno sa Sitio Badbaron, Zone 5.

🗳️ PELIGROSONG PAG-ANTALA NG BARANGAY ELECTIONS

Ipinasa na ng Kamara ang panukalang House Bill No. 11287 na magpapalawig ng termino ng mga Barangay at SK officials mula 3 taon tungo sa 6 na taon—nang walang bagong halalan.

➡️ Ibig sabihin: Ang mga opisyal na nahalal noong 2023 ay mananatili sa puwesto hanggang 2029 kung maipasa ito ng Senado at mapirmahan ng Pangulo.
➡️ Ang halalang nakatakda sa Disyembre 2025 ay maaaring kanselahin.

❗ Pero tanong: Inihalal ba natin sila para sa anim na taon?
❗ Sino ang nagpasyang hindi na natin kailangang bumoto sa 2025?

🧠 Ang tunay na demokrasya ay may regular na eleksyon. Ang tunay na lider ay handang humarap muli sa taumbayan. Hindi umaalalay sa batas para manatili sa pwesto.

📢 Ipaglaban ang halalan! Igalang ang boto! Huwag pahintulutang gawing permanente ang pansamantalang kapangyarihan.

IBP-Albay Urges Senate to Act on VP Impeachment Case

Legazpi City, June 9, 2025 — The Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) Albay Chapter is calling on the Senate to take immediate action on the impeachment case filed against the Vice President, citing legal and political uncertainty caused by months of inaction.

In a statement issued today, the IBP-Albay Board of Officers expressed concern over the Senate’s failure to act on the Articles of Impeachment transmitted to it last February 5. They emphasized that the delay undermines the rule of law and erodes public trust in the Senate’s credibility and impartiality.

“The uncertainty serves only to erode the integrity of the Senate as the institution entrusted with duty to try and decide impeachment cases,” the statement said, stressing that the delay is unfair to both complainants and the respondent, who is being denied the opportunity to defend herself.

The group reminded the Senate of its constitutional role as the Impeachment Court, bound under Article XI, Section 3(4) of the Constitution to expeditiously act on such matters. “Like any other court, it cannot refuse to render a decision,” the IBP-Albay said.

They concluded by urging the Senate to fulfill its “sacred Constitutional duty” and decide the case in accordance with the principles of due process, fairness, and impartiality.
