A no-holds-barred cage match where the only thing transparent is the hypocrisy
By Louis ‘Barok‘ C. Biraogo — November 19, 2025
WELCOME TO THE COLOSSEUM NG MGA HIPOKRITO
(Where Principles Go to Die and Confidential Funds Go to Narnia)
1. BLOODBATH NG MGA PUTIK: The Grand Opening of Mud-Wrestling Season 2025
Two dynasties enter. One anti-corruption brand leaves. The rest of us drown.
2. DUEL OF THE DEFLECTORS: Who Can Pretend to Be Cleanest While Stinking the Most?
A blow-by-blow evisceration so savage even the cockroaches in Malacañang are taking notes.
- Sara’s Oscar-Worthy Monologue: “Crisis of Confidence!”
(Translation: “Please look at Marcos while I hide my P612 million receipts behind this very large flag.”) - Claire Castro’s Mic-Drop Counterpunch: “Pot, meet kettle. Kettle, meet pot.”
(Translation: “We may be slow, but at least we’re not the ones with ghost students eating ghost lunches.”)

3. THE REAL SCRIPT THEY THINK WE CAN’T READ
(Pro tip: we can. And it’s written in 2028 campaign ink.)
What Sara actually wants:
- Own the anti-corruption halo before anyone else can
- Make sure any probe that digs too deep into DPWH also digs up Marcos budgets her father signed
- Keep INC and the mob warm for when she needs bodies on the street again
What Marcos actually wants:
- Castrate the most dangerous presidential heir in the country
- Rebrand himself as Mr. Due Process (the boring but “clean” guy)
- Survive the protests long enough to deliver at least one high-profile scalp (preferably not a cousin)
Current score: Both bleeding. Public trust flatlining. 2028 still up for grabs.
4. WHILE ROME FLOODS: A Masterclass in How to Fiddle with Confidential Funds During a Deluge
Billions vanish into ghost dikes.
Children float to school on Styrofoam.
And our leaders? Busy measuring whose dirt smells worse.
This isn’t governance.
This is a live-action telenovela titled “Parehong Bulok, Sino Ang Mas Bulok?”
5. THE ONLY WAY TO END THIS SHITSHOW
(And yes, I’m yelling because whispering clearly isn’t working)
To Sara:
Open the goddamn books. All P612.5 million of them. Independent audit. Live-stream it. Today. No more “national security” fairy tales.
To Marcos & Claire:
Stop using “due process” as a polite word for “cover-up.” Publish the full list of ghost projects, contractors, and the politicians who pocketed them. Set a hard deadline for arrests. If your relatives are on the list, handcuff them on national television. Anything less is just another season renewal.
To both dynasties:
The Filipino people are not your supporting cast.
We are the ones dying while you audition for 2028.
Clean up.
Or get swept away.
Because the next typhoon doesn’t care which family owns the anti-corruption trademark.
Barok, out.
