Rep. Imee Marcos accused House Minority leader Francis Escudero of "bullying" his colleagues into signing a new impeachment complaint no one seems to have seen yet. Imee had the misfortune of being treated heavy-handedly by her own allies.

A wise move. And decisive. The first is cutting down on power and gasoline expenses by 10 to 20 percent. The department heads gave their nod to the move to adopt austerity measures.
