Philippines LIVE: Senators Push Marcos To Target Romualdez, ‘Big Fish’ In Flood Control Corruption

Senate Session No. 32 | Bongbong Marcos | Martin Romualdez | Big Fish Accountability | Flood Control Scandal | Philippine Senate LIVE | Corruption Investigation | Kickback Scheme | Budget Insertion | Senate Hearing | House Speaker Romualdez | Marcos Administration | Anti-Corruption Crackdown | Breaking News Philippines | Political Crisis | Arrest Warrant

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is facing renewed pressure to hold Speaker Martin Romualdez and other high-ranking "big fish" accountable in the massive flood control corruption scandal, with administration officials vowing more arrests before Christmas 2025. Romualdez stands accused of receiving millions in kickbacks through intermediaries, orchestrating P142.7 billion in questionable budget insertions, and allegedly leveraging budget control to coerce lawmakers into voting for Sara Duterte's impeachment. Senate pressure intensifies as the Blue Ribbon Committee confronts credible testimony from construction firm owners alleging that 17 House members—including allies of Romualdez—demanded 25% kickbacks on flood control projects, forcing senators to either demand Romualdez's immediate subpoena or risk appearing complicit in a cover-up. Today's Senate session will test whether Marcos follows through on his anti-corruption rhetoric or shields his cousin, a deciding moment for institutional credibility and the legitimacy of the anti-graft movement.
