The Verity

Ato ning klarohon.

🚫 DDS CLAIM #1: “Heidi Mendoza falsely testified that $28 million entered Corona’s dollar account.”

🚫 DDS CLAIM #2: “Heidi Mendoza persecuted Corona and drove him to su***de.”

Both claims are fabricated lies born from the Duterte propaganda network to smear reformist officials who stood for transparency and accountability during the Aquino administration.

🟢 THE FACTS

Heidi Mendoza never testified against Chief Justice Renato Corona. She was a Commissioner of the Commission on Audit (COA) — not a member of the impeachment prosecution team.

The $28 million figure came from Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales, who cited official Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) data, not from COA and certainly not from Mendoza.

The COA has no access to personal bank accounts. Its job is to audit public funds, not to investigate private bank holdings. Claiming that Mendoza “fabricated” or “lied about” dollar figures is illogical — she had no jurisdiction, no data, and no role in that testimony.

Renato Corona, meanwhile, died in 2016 of a heart attack, confirmed by his family and hospital reports. There is no evidence of su***de.

No police record, no autopsy, and no credible news source ever reported it. The “su***de” story was invented later online to make him appear as a victim and to emotionally charge a false political narrative.

🟢 HOW THE DISINFORMATION SPREAD

The Duterte-aligned online network recycled the lie in a familiar pattern:

1. Mix up the names. Attribute Ombudsman Morales’ AMLC testimony to Heidi Mendoza.

2. Demonize the reformists. Paint Mendoza as a personal persecutor of Corona.

3. Add drama. Insert a fictional su***de to stir outrage and pity.

4. Repeat it endlessly through troll farms, YouTube videos, and meme cards that mix truth and lies to confuse the public.

🟢 THE BLUNT TRUTH

Heidi Mendoza did not lie.
She did not testify against Corona.
She did not fabricate figures.
And she did not cause anyone’s death.

Renato Corona’s impeachment was a legal and institutional process backed by documentary evidence and decided by the Senate — not by one auditor. His death was a medical event, not political persecution.

The whole story is a propaganda myth, designed to rewrite history and vilify those who fought corruption. Facts remain facts: Heidi Mendoza stood for transparency; the trolls stood for deceit.

Truth doesn’t kill. Lies do.

Para sa mga Pilipino na hindi alam ang totoo...

“Masyadong malalim itong Duterte na ito,” sabi ni Miriam Defensor Santiago noong 2016, sa isang panayam na inilathala ng GMA News noong Mayo 6, 2016. Sa parehong panayam, tinawag niyang “the most dangerous man to lead the country” si Rodrigo Duterte dahil sa kanyang mga koneksyon at kontrobersyal na pahayag. Dagdag pa ni Santiago, “What about the plunder charge by Trillanes? We do not have any acceptable reason for all those accusations against him.” Ang pahayag na ito ay tumutukoy sa kasong inihain ni Senador Antonio Trillanes IV sa Office of the Ombudsman noong 2016 kaugnay ng umano’y P2.4 bilyong piso na dumaan sa mahigit 11,000 bank transactions sa mga account ng pamilya Duterte mula 2006 hanggang 2015, kabilang ang umano’y undeclared deposit na P211 milyon.

Ang pagtutol ngayon ng mga kaalyado ni Vice President Sara Duterte sa impeachment proceedings ay hindi hiwalay sa mga isyung ito. Ang isang impeachment trial ay may kapangyarihang magpatawag ng mga dokumento at bank records alinsunod sa Rule VI, Section 6 ng Impeachment Rules ng House of Representatives, at sa ilalim ng Republic Act No. 1405 o “Bank Secrecy Law,” maaaring mabuksan ang mga bank accounts kung may kaugnayan sa imbestigasyong judicial o legislative sa ilalim ng sworn authority o subpoena. Sa madaling sabi, kung matutuloy ang impeachment, posibleng mabuksan ang mga rekord ng transaksyong matagal nang isinasantabi ng mga awtoridad.

Hindi ito simpleng pagtatanggol ng mag-ina. Ito ay malinaw na pagtatangkang protektahan ang nakaraan. Takot silang mabunyag ang pinagmulan ng mga pondong hindi naipapaliwanag, at takot silang maungkat muli ang mga alegasyon ng “undeclared wealth” na unang binanggit ni Trillanes. Sa ilalim ng Republic Act No. 6713 o “Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees,” obligadong ideklara ng bawat opisyal ng gobyerno ang lahat ng asset, liability, at net worth (SALN), at anumang hindi deklaradong kayamanan ay maaaring gamiting basehan ng kasong administratibo o kriminal gaya ng perjury o ill-gotten wealth.

Habang nagtatago sa likod ng “confidential funds,” nananatiling tahimik ang mga bangko at ahensya na may tungkuling mag-ulat sa ilalim ng Anti-Money Laundering Act (RA 9160) kapag may “suspicious transactions.” Kaya nga ayaw nilang matuloy ang impeachment. Dahil kapag nabuksan ang mga account at nailabas sa public record ang mga trail ng transaksyon, babalik sa isipan ng mga tao ang mga tanong na iniwan ni Miriam noong 2016 — may kabuluhan ba ang mga alegasyong iyon, o tinakpan lang ng kapangyarihan?

Hindi ito simpleng pamilya. Isa itong network ng impluwensiya, pera, at takot na patuloy na nilalamon ang sistemang dapat sana’y para sa taumbayan. At ang totoo, ang inaakala ng marami na “strong leader,” matagal nang naging “strong cover-up.”

Paano nasisikmura ng mga pulitiko at mga kawani ng DPWH ang pagnakawan ang mga kababayan natin na a
sobrang dumadanas ng hirap dahil sa mga daan at paaralan na iniwan na lang sukat. Sana nga matupad na ang wish ni Ms Kara David ,upang nang sa ganun ay mapaglingkuran naman ang mga mamamayan na nasa dulo ng Pilipinas at pinagkaitan ng tulong at serbisyo ng mga lingkod- bayan kuno,subalit magnanakaw naman pala at dayukdok sa perang hindi kanila.

Aired (August 9, 2018): Isang mas malalim na pagtingin sa pamumuhay ng ating mga kababayan sa isa sa pinakamahirap na lugar sa Pilipinas. Panoorin ang video....

A Tribute to Ms. Emman Atienza

Such a young soul…
She had everything in life-wealth, beauty, and intelligence, but none of these erased the pain of the trauma she experienced as a little girl.

At only three or four years old, she was abused by her own yaya. Then, when she reached the age when she was supposed to live freely and happily, as a teenager, she suffered again, this time from the cruel words and actions of her classmates, including those she once trusted.

Based on her interview in Toni Talks, Emman revealed that her parents, both famous and wealthy, were too busy working from morning until night. Because of this, she never had the chance to tell them in detail what really happened to her in the hands of her yaya. Kaawa-awang bata, she was abused in the very place where she was supposed to feel safe, her own home.

As she narrated her story, one could sense her deep longing for love and affection- something she failed to receive and feel, even up to the present.

In a world where it is rare to meet genuine people, we must learn to strengthen both our hearts and minds. If we don’t, pain can consume us and lead us into lasting sorrow.

The story of this young girl is not hers alone; it represents the silent cries of many who hide their suffering behind beautiful faces and successful lives. Her story reminds us that material wealth can never replace emotional presence and genuine affection.

The truth is, many of us have been victims of bullying or emotional neglect in one way or another. Some survived and became stronger; others, sadly, did not. Like Emman, amid the bashing she received on social media, she could no longer hold on. She felt the relentless pain that suffocated her, and once again, she had no one to call or talk to.

I firmly believe that parental presence and emotional support are the cornerstones of raising a child. Money may provide comfort, but a warm embrace offers love, safety, and a sense of belonging. Parents must remember that children need to be seen, heard, and cared for- not just provided for materially.

Teachers, too, play a vital role. We must be the guiding light and protectors of our learners inside the school. As educators, we should consistently remind our students never to bully others. We must teach them to treat their classmates like family and to remember that no one has the right to belittle anyone, for none of us is perfect. Instead, we must encourage them to extend their hands to those in need and to make kindness a lifelong habit.

If every home, every school, and every community chooses to nurture love and compassion, then perhaps no child will have to hide behind fake smiles or silent pain. Let us remember: a child’s heart, once broken, takes years to heal, but a single act of love can make all the difference.

Masisi n'yo ba ako, kung hindi ako naniniwala sa mga relihiyon na ang doktrina ng founder ang nasusunod, at hindi ang totoong salita ng Dyos?

Tingnan ang Senador sa ibabang larawan, nangangaral ng salita ng Dyos,subalit pangalawang beses nang nasasangkot sa pagnanakaw sa gobyerno.

Maaring sa unang beses na madawit ka, pwedeng baka magkamali,although si Ombudsman Morales ang nag-imbestiga at nagbaba ng hatol na iyon. Kilala natin ang kalibre ni Morales; matalino at matuwid.

Ngayon,heto at sa ikalawang pagkakataon, nasasangkot na naman ang pangalan nya sa pagnanakaw sa kaban ng bayan.

Ibang pagkakataon, ibang presidente at magkaibang insidente: PDAF noon,ngayon ay flood control fiasco.

Hindi ka ba nahihiya? Nasa pulpito at nangangaral ka ,tapos nasasangkot ka sa pagnanakaw.

Kapal!

Bakit noong panahon ng tatay mo, may demokrasya ba?

Ang gulo- gulo noon, mapa- ekonomiya at mapa- pulitikal na aspeto. Walang direksyon at panay pagmumura, pambabastos at pagmamatapang lang ang naririnig ko mula sa bibig ng tatay mo, sa twing nasa telebisyon. Kung titingnan, sa panahon ng tatay mo nagsimula ang malawakang korapsyon sa gobyerno. Ang akala nyo lang at ng iba pang magnanakaw sa gobyerno ay forever ang unithieves, kaso nagkamali kayo, nagising ang katambal nyo at humiwalay.

Ngayon, kanya- kanya kayong batuhan ng dumi, e pare- pareho naman kayong marungis.

Nag- aanyong anghel talaga ang demonyo.

Si Lucifer man ay dating anghel na naghangad nang labis at na-inggit sa Dyos.

Kaya ang ending, ipinatapon sya sa impyerno.

Sana isama na yung tao na nasa piktyur sa baba.

Tandaan,Bibliya na ang nagsabi: "Hindi lahat ng tumatawag sa Akin, na 'ama ko', ay akin ngang anak."

Dear Atty. Regal,

Sometimes, the hardest thing to face is not the mistake itself but the silence that follows it.

When the applause fades and the crowd that once cheered your words suddenly turns away, you begin to feel how cold the air can be when relevance walks out the door.

It is not wrong to change your mind, nor is it shameful to stand for what you believe. But when an apology turns into a performance, when contrition feels like calculation, it stops being redemption. It becomes damage control.

Your fall did not begin with your opinion on the ICC. It began the moment you valued applause more than truth. And now, instead of reflection, you have chosen diversion. You seek to recover the affection of those who abandoned you, not by rebuilding your integrity but by attacking another, someone who had nothing to do with your undoing.

You cannot rebuild bridges by burning new ones. You cannot regain trust by borrowing someone else’s name to win back an old crowd. Every word you now release carries the scent of longing, not conviction.

If you believe that another point of view will buy your way back into their grace, think again. Because this path you are taking is not a road home. It is a slow descent into irrelevance.

And please, Attorney, do not drag Martin Romualdez into your redemption story. You lost the crowd by your own hand. Do not try to find your way back through his.

Ctto:
