Marcos to adhere to ouster process

2 min read

PRESIDENT Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. would comply with due process, pledging to provide congressmen with all documents required as impeachment proceedings against him move forward in the chamber.

“If it is necessary and it is said that any document must be provided, again the President respects the process,” Palace Press Officer Clarissa A. Castro told a news briefing in Filipino on Tuesday.

This followed the House of Representatives’ move to begin impeachment proceedings on the twin raps against Mr. Marcos, which the Palace counted as an attack against the administration.

The President is facing two ouster complaints following allegations of his hand in a multibillion-peso public works scam tied to faulty flood mitigation projects.

Both complaints accused Mr. Marcos of betraying public trust by enabling large-scale corruption by distributing infrastructure funds to congressional districts, resulting in substandard or unfinished projects that left the public shortchanged.

Mr. Marcos earlier said he did not commit any impeachable offense, maintaining his confidence that the raps would not prosper.

The House panel will decide whether the accusations are sufficient to advance the case to the Senate, which convenes as an impeachment court.

Referring the complaints to the committee also bars other groups from filing separate cases and shields the President from facing another impeachment attempt within the same calendar year. — Chloe Mari A. Hufana

Fed’s Hammack Backs Restrictive Policy Over Fed Rate Cuts

Fed’s Hammack Backs Restrictive Policy Over Fed Rate Cuts

The post Fed’s Hammack Backs Restrictive Policy Over Fed Rate Cuts appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cleveland Federal Reserve President Beth Hammack has advocated for a restrictive monetary policy amid growing concerns of rising inflation . Her comment comes as Fed officials remain divided on whether they should make a Fed rate cut at the October FOMC meeting, a move that would impact the crypto market. Hammack Raises Inflation Concerns Amid Fed Rate Cut Debate Hammack stated that inflation continues to exceed the Fed’s objective and remains a concern across both headline and core categories. Speaking on CNBC, she noted that price growth remains above the Federal Reserve’s 2% objective and is not expected to return to target until the end of 2027 or early 2028. The Fed president added that pressures are most apparent in the services sector, where inflation has proven more persistent. Notably, her comments follow the first Fed rate cut of the year, two weeks ago at the September FOMC meeting.  In her remarks, Hammack said monetary policy must remain restrictive to ensure progress toward the inflation target, indicating that she doesn’t favor further Fed rate cuts for now. She explained that the Federal Reserve’s dual mandate requires balancing price stability with employment, but argued that inflation remains the greater challenge at present. “When I balance those two sides of our mandate, I think we really need to maintain a restrictive stance of policy so that we can get inflation back down to our goal,” she said. Inflation Over the Jobs Market Hammack pointed to service-related spending as an area where inflationary pressures remain strong. She explained that both headline and main price levels are still above target, with little evidence of near-term relief. She described the U.S. labor market as “reasonably healthy” and overall balanced, noting that current conditions do not show major weaknesses. However, Hammack stressed that maintaining this balance…
