The facts
On 22 July 2025 Marcos suspended preparations for the speech after photos of workers hanging his posters in heavy rain went viral, but neither Malacañang nor Congress cancelled or postponed it. The House said 90 to 95 percent of preparations were done, Marcos said his speech was 80 percent complete, and he delivered it as scheduled on 28 July. VERA Files rated the claim misleading.
