Immigrant from the Philippines Pleads Guilty to Illegally Voting in 2024 US Presidential Election

September 23, 2026September 22, 2026carlocarrasco

There definitely is such a thing as illegally voting in elections in the United States. Since Donald Trump returned as US President in 2025, the government has been unrelenting on pushing back against illegal immigration while restoring the integrity of American elections. That said, an immigrant from the Philippines pleaded guilty to voting illegally in the US Presidential election of 2024 and it happened just months after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under failed US President Joe Biden approved her for the green card, according to a news report by Breitbart.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Breitbart news report. Some parts in boldface…

Last week, the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced that 37-year-old Evelyn Miller of the Philippines, who resided in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty to illegal voting.

On Monday, Breitbart News learned that Miller, who was approved for a green card by Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in July 2024, registered to vote on October 9, 2024, and illegally voted in the presidential election on November 5, 2024.

“This alien from the Philippines pleaded guilty to illegally voting in the 2024 election in Pennsylvania,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in a statement. “Thanks to the hard work of the men and women of HSI, as well as our partners at the Department of Justice, this alien will soon face justice for her efforts to subvert our elections. American elections are for Americans only.”

In the investigation, Miller confessed to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents that she registered to vote online ahead of the election and voted in person on Election Day.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Does this case of illegal voting convince you that there should be more restrictions to prevent green card holders from voting in any election? What do you think is the ideal punishment for green card holders who actually voted? Are you convinced that Democrats would do anything to allow illegal voting in order to gain power?

September 22, 2026September 17, 2026carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, a man armed with an improvised firearm who caused trouble in a local community was arrested by police officers, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

A housekeeping worker was arrested after allegedly brandishing an improvised firearm and challenging residents to a fight in Parañaque City on Tuesday evening, Sept. 15.

The suspect, identified only as alias “Julius,” 31, a resident of Barangay Moonwalk, was arrested at around 6:20 p.m. on Saudi Arabia Street, Barangay Don Bosco, Parañaque City.

Police said a concerned citizen alerted officers conducting patrol in the area about a man who was allegedly intoxicated, causing a disturbance, and carrying a homemade firearm known as “sumpak”.

Responding officers reportedly saw Julius walking along the street while holding and brandishing the improvised firearm and shouting at nearby residents.

The officers ordered him several times to put down the weapon, but he allegedly resisted, prompting them to arrest him.

A search of the suspect reportedly yielded a heat-sealed sachet containing about 0.08 grams of suspected shabu, with an estimated price of P544. Also recovered were the improvised firearm and two live ammunition.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that violent crime will get worse in the next six months? Do you consider Parañaque a hot spot for loose firearms and improvised weapons?

Four Chinese Nationals Arrested in Parañaque City over Illegal Drugs

September 19, 2026September 13, 2026carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Parañaque, elements of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) raided a condominium unit and arrested four Chinese nationals over illegal drugs which the authorities confiscated, according to a GMA Network news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the GMA News report. Some parts in boldface…

Four Chinese nationals were arrested after the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) raided a condominium unit in Parañaque City allegedly being used to order and consume illegal drugs.

According to a report by John Consulta on “24 Oras Weekend,” the NBI Cybercrime Division arrested one woman and three men after opening the door of the target unit during an operation.

The agency searched the four rooms of the condominium and recovered high-grade marijuana or kush, from a side table and suspected shabu on the bathroom floor.

Drug paraphernalia and suspected drug residue were also found inside a cabinet in another room.

The NBI said its Cybercrime Division had monitored the suspects allegedly using cyberspace to order various types of illegal drugs, which were then delivered to the condominium disguised among food deliveries and other online orders.

“We monitored individuals through our Cybercrime Division who were using cyberspace to order drugs—various kinds of drugs,” NBI Director Melvin Matibag said.

The four suspects were subjected to drug testing, with two testing positive, according to the NBI. The two who tested positive were subsequently subjected to inquest proceedings for alleged violations of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.

Matibag also reminded the suspects that the use of cannabis and methamphetamine is illegal in the Philippines.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, are you concerned that there could be more Chinese nationals who could be doing criminal activities within the city? Do you think Parañaque is absolutely not a drug-free city at all?

Online Sellers of Fake and Unregulated Products in the Philippines Targeted by Police

September 12, 2026September 8, 2026carlocarrasco

If you have been purchasing a lot of products online here in the Philippines, was there a time when a seller cheated you or scammed you over a transaction? A lot of online sellers have been involved in the distribution of fake and unregulated products, and the Philippine National Police (PNP) is actively searching for them, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

The Philippine National Police has strengthened its intelligence and enforcement efforts against online sellers and networks involved in the distribution of fake and unregulated products that may endanger consumers.

PNP chief Gen. Jose Melencio C. Nartatez Jr. said they are now working with the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL), Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), and other partner agencies to identify those behind the illegal trade and build cases for prosecution.

“The PNP backs efforts to strengthen the crackdown against counterfeit goods online. We will continue to coordinate with our partner agencies to identify those behind the illegal trade and ensure that appropriate charges are filed,” Nartatez said.

Nartatez ‘statement was issued amid a call from consumer advocacy group Malayang Konsyumer for an immediate and sustained government crackdown on counterfeit products being sold through e-commerce platforms.

The group warned that fake medicines, vitamins, health supplements and beauty products may contain toxic chemicals, while counterfeit clothing, footwear, toys and perfumes as products that could expose consumers to hidden health risks.

It also raised concerns over substandard electronics that may cause fires or electrocution and fake household adhesives, sealants and building materials that may pose structural and health hazards.

“We will not allow online platforms to become a safe haven for counterfeiters. The PNP will strengthen intelligence gathering and enforcement operations against individuals and networks engaged in the sale and distribution of fake and unregulated products,” Nartatez said.

“Counterfeit goods are not only an intellectual property concern. They are also health and safety matters in most cases that need immediate and aggressive law enforcement response,” he added.

The PNP’s planned action will build on its existing campaign against smuggling and other economic crimes.

From January to June 2026, police conducted 8,986 anti-smuggling operations, resulting in the arrest of 2,560 individuals and the seizure of about P8.6 billion worth of smuggled cigarettes and equipment.

The campaign has also extended to other illegal goods as the PNP confiscated P628 million worth of smuggled goods, counterfeit products, and other illegal articles in nationwide operations in July.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Has any online seller released to you a counterfeit product? Do you believe that online shopping platforms like Shopee and Lazada have a lot of scammers and abusive online sellers?

ICC President Akane Calls Her Organization the “Last Bastion of the Rule of Law”

September 8, 2026September 8, 2026carlocarrasco

Tomoko Akane, the incumbent president of the International Criminal Court, called her organization in The Hague the “last bastion of the rule of law” as she labeled America’s sanctions against her illegal and unacceptable, according to a news article by Jiji Press.

This past August, the United States sanctioned Akane and ICC trial lawyer Abdoul Seye of Senegal which is a part of their campaign to dismantle the organization’s threat to American sovereignty. Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae called the sanctions against Akane (a Japanese citizen) “very unfortunate”. It remains to be seen how the ICC sanctions will impact the current state of US-Japan relations and cooperation.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the entire Jiji Press news article. Some parts in boldface…

International Criminal Court President Tomoko Akane, under U.S. sanctions, on Sunday called The Hague-based organization the last bastion of the rule of law in the world.

Support from people around the world is necessary for the continuation of the ICC, she said in an event held by a nongovernmental organization in Tokyo.

Akane, who attended the event online, expressed her sincere gratitude for assistance from Japan, such as a signature campaign.

The U.S. sanctions are illegal and unacceptable, she said, calling them a move to suppress justice through external force.

Akane said she has been able to receive her salaries through a local bank while facing problems remitting money. Companies have rejected transactions with her due to the sanctions, she added.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you find Akane’s words about the American sanctions on her rather twisted given the fact that the ICC itself threatened American sovereignty and even interfered Philippine sovereignty and justice system? Are you convinced that Akane is simply pretending to be a victim? Do you want to see the ICC come to an end soon?
