Sen. Ping Lacson threatens to spill beans on Pidal II
August 13, 2008
Opposition Sen. Panfilo Lacson is threatening to drop a bombshell on the presidential couple amid reports of a lifestyle check probe on him by the Ombudsman which he insists is Malacañang-initiated.
He said his exposé will prove to be far worse than his exposé on the Jose Pidal case where he pointed the finger at presidential spouse Jose Miguel “Mike” Arroyo as the brains, adding a privilege speech will be delivered by him if Malacañang does not back off from “harassing” him.
An obviously peeved Lacson yesterday warned Malacañang that he will strike back if Palace minions will continue harassing and intimidating him, the latest form taken being the not-so-discreet lifestyle check being conducted by the Office of the Ombudsman as well as the reported efforts of Malacañang and its loyal generals in reviving the Dacer-Corbito double murder case implicating him.

Judge orders Joc-joc Bolante “removed” from USA
June 4, 2008
It’s the end of the line for former Department of Agriculture (DA) Undersecretary Jocelyn “Joc-joc” Bolante in his bid to seek political asylum in the United States on claims that he is being politically persecuted by the Philippine Senate to get back at President Arroyo.
The US Immigration Court not only threw out Bolante’s appeal by denying his asylum bid plus his application for withholding removal case, but US Immigration Judge George Katsivalis also ordered that the “respondent (Bolante) be removed from the United Sates to the country (Philippines)” as required by US law.
The former undersecretary alleged to be the brains behind the P728-million fertilizer scam, if he does not appeal his case before the US Supreme Court, will have to be deported to the Philippines.

SEN. Ping Lacson links Gloria to P2.5B swine scam
April 4, 2008
SEN. Panfilo Lacson will ask the Senate to investigate Quedancor’s P2.5 billion Swine Program fund in 2004, saying there is an indication that President Arroyo had a direct hand in the anomaly surrounding it.
“Nang inilipat ni GMA ang Quedancor sa OP (Office of the President) mula sa DA (Department of Agriculture) ‘tsaka nangyari ang ’swine-dling’. May indikasyon na may direct hand ang Pangulo sa anomalya ala fertilizer scam,” he said.
Quedancor (Quedan and Rural Credit Corp.) was placed under the OP during the elections in 2004.
Lacson said just like the P728-million fertilizer fund scam, the billions of pesos supposedly for the purchase of livestock could have been used to fund the 2004 campaign of Team Unity candidates.
