Guys, baka may nakakaalam dito kasi genuinely curious ako. 😭

Noong 2025, si Nadia Montenegro ay political affairs officer sa office ni Sen. Robin Padilla. Nag-resign siya noong August 2025 amid reports of an alleged marijuana incident inside the Senate, although she denied being the person involved. Dineny niya, weh di ako naniniwala? 👀

Tapos nitong June 2026, lumabas ang news na kaka-graduate lang pala niya ng high school through ALS, at ayon sa interview niya, Grade 7 lang ang natapos niya dati dahil maaga siyang pumasok sa showbiz.

So ang tanong ko talaga:

ANO ANG QUALIFICATIONS PARA MAGING POLITICAL AFFAIRS OFFICER SA SENATE? 😭

Kasi kung noong 2025 ay hindi pa siya high-school graduate, paano siya naging qualified para sa isang position na nasa legislative office?

Hindi ko naman sinasabing “walang diploma = walang kakayahan.” Obviously, hindi naman automatic na educational attainment ang sukatan ng intelligence o competence.

Pero government position ito, at political affairs officer pa. Surely may qualification standards, job description, appointment process, or at least some explanation kung bakit siya ang napili?

At mas lalo akong napapaisip dahil si Robin Padilla mismo ang nag-hire sa kanya bilang political officer.

So curious lang ako: ano ba talaga ang qualifications ng position na ito at paano na-justify ang appointment niya?

Kasi kung may special qualification/experience na sapat para ma-override ang educational requirement, sabihin natin. Kung contractual/personal staff position naman na walang formal degree requirement, sabihin din natin.

Pero kung ordinaryong taxpayer ka lang na nakikita ang headline na:

“Political Affairs Officer sa Senate”

tapos makalipas ang ilang buwan:

“Nadia Montenegro graduates high school at 54”

mapapa-“TEKA LANG, ANO???” ka talaga. 😭😭😭

And please, bago tayo mag-conclude ng kung anu-anong conspiracy tungkol sa dalawang tao, baka mas magandang magsimula tayo sa pinaka-basic:

Ano ang actual job description at qualification standards ng Political Affairs Officer ng isang Senator?

Kasi THAT is the question na gusto ko masagot. 👀

Marami akong kakilala sa kapitolyo since dati akong nagtrabaho run (I have resigned since grabe ang pambubully ng bagong admin. Looking at you Maan).

Anyway, a lot of them have said na this guy Ethan was invited by Guico-C to make a positive video about the capitol ground development and the cutting of trees of course. He was paid upwards of 150k.

This is just an attempt of *appeal to authority* para ijustify yung pagputol sa mga puno.

Pansinin niyo, never nabanggit yung mga acacia trees na pinutol. At paulit-ulit din niyang sinasabi na expert forester siya. Pansinin niyo rin na all out ang trolls ni Guico sa comment section. Watch the video again.

Kung someone like Celine Murillo siguro maniniwala ako. Celine turned down an invite to Switzerland kasi di pasok sa ideals niya yung topic doon.

Ganto rin ba ang Stub sa inyo para sa relief goods? Tignan niyo tong sa Calumpit, Bulacan.

Akala mo photocard ni Mayora Lem, eh kung sanang galing sa sariling pera niya yung pinamimigay. Eh hindi naman.

Paalala lang po na ang relief box na galing sa DSWD ay galing ho sa taxpayer’s money at hindi sa bulsa ng mga polpolitiko ng mga bayan natin.

Tigilan sana yang early electioneering na ginagawa. Sana kung photocard ng Bini yan, eh parang Buni naman yung sa Calumpit.

We need real and long-term solutions aside sa relief goods na hindi kine-credit grab ng mga Hudas nating Buni ng Bayan. Kadiri.

WOW HERMES AT ROLEX Atbp!!!

Sobrang flex naman sa social media nitong dating VMX artist at model. Saw her once with a politician she was reportedly associated with a Politiko. JIL Joel V.👀

BAHA NA NGA Flex nang flex pa, pero sana malinaw din kung saan nanggagaling ang perang pinangfi-flex. If public funds are involved, pera ng bayan ’yan—hindi personal na pang-luho. Konting hiya at accountability naman.

Dahil sa dalawang U turn na binuksan to cater to your 2 FUCKING entrances TRAFFIC NA SA MARCOS HIGHWAY! Before your existence when u turn was still nasa dulo ng intersection AND NOT TO YOUR FUCKING ENTRANCES traffic was okay. Sincr you started MANIPULATING WHERE TO PUT THE U-TURNs WALA NA TRAFFIC NA! Until now na baha yung areas along Marcos Highway, Aba hindi nyo pinatinag yang U turn nyo ano?? At talagang sa Vermont Park pa kaming lahat mag u-uturn??? TANGINA NYO! It's the police's job too to fix the fucking traffic but since ya'll introduced na dapat sa vermont park mag u-turn to get to the other side, syempre wala ng maiisip na ibang solusyon diba?? As if ganon katalino yung yung mga traffic enforcer jan.

Check the second pic, talagang hinarangan nila yung uturn slot para di makacounter-flow yung mga sasakyan, while motorists are free to counterflow. HAHAHA what stupidity Antipolo! Tangina nyo SM tangina nyo YNARES

Shameful. As the daughter of a mayor and politician, this woman openly flaunts a lavish lifestyle constantly traveling abroad, carrying designer bags, going on private cruises, and even enjoying private helicopter rides. Then suddenly, many of those posts are gone. When your family holds public office, this kind of extravagant lifestyle naturally raises questions. People deserve transparency and accountability, especially when public service is involved.

Minsan hindi mo talaga alam kung saan kumukuha ng kapal ng mukha o kung meron pa bang natitira kahit katiting sa mga tao na ‘to.

I can’t wait to leave Bacoor and I feel bad for those who can’t.

So, during the Delarama fire incident, ₱1.2 million was given for the victims, but only ₱200,000 reportedly made it to the affected families.

Quick math: ₱1.2M − ₱200K = ₱1 MILLION.
And that’s not exactly loose change you find under the sofa. 😏

The records can verify the figures, so maybe this mystery doesn’t need Sherlock Holmes—just a proper accounting of where the missing ₱1 million went.

And with the talk in Masville about the money allegedly ending up in gambling, perhaps the simplest question is:

Was the ₱1.2 million really for the fire victims—or was ₱1 million given a different destination?
Receipts, please. The victims deserve answers. 💸

In June 2025, the internal watchdog inside the DICT (the Department of Information and Communications Technology) sent a memo to the Commission on Audit, the government’s official auditor, raising red flags about a senior official, Undersecretary David Almirol Jr., and the e-government office he runs. The memo attached three reports.

The first is small in peso terms but points to a bigger problem. The DICT’s online bidding platform adds a ₱47.50 “convenience fee” every time someone pays online, but that money does not show up anywhere in the department’s official financial records. There is also no clear legal basis for charging it, and the platform was never properly registered as a payment operator the way the law requires. On its own the fee is tiny, but money being collected from the public that cannot be traced is the kind of thing auditors take seriously.

The second report is about security. A string of cyberattacks hit government agencies, the telecoms regulator, the police, the transportation department, and a local government in Ilocos Norte. The report claims these attacks look similar to methods used by previously arrested hackers, some of whom are allegedly connected to Almirol’s former company, Multisys, and to another former DICT official, Jeffrey Dy.

The third report is where the real money is, and it is a lot. It says Almirol approved a series of large government tech contracts (the eGov app, the eLGU system, and the National Government Data Center) that went to companies tied to PLDT, in many cases without full open bidding. Some highlights of what the auditors flag:

- Over ₱426 million in contracts for “managed” and “consultancy” services that may have been mislabeled to avoid registering the results as government property.

- A data center where 100 server racks were leased but 97% sat unused, while the government pays ₱36 million every single month, roughly ₱432 million a year.

- Additional rack leases worth ₱120 million on top of that.

- Contracts in 2024 that appear to repeat what was already paid for in 2023, meaning the government may have paid twice for the same thing.

- Software built with public money whose source code was never handed over to the government, so taxpayers paid for systems they don’t fully own.

Independent reporting has since put the total universe of these PLDT-linked eGov contracts at more than ₱1.5 billion.

The bottom line: a ₱47.50 fee got the auditors’ attention, but the reports describe potential exposure in the hundreds of millions to over a billion pesos. The auditors are asking the Commission on Audit to launch full independent investigations and to refer the officials involved to the Ombudsman and other agencies to determine whether any laws were broken.

JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED!
