Atty. Ligutan propounded the same line of questioning that defense counsel Atty. Vinluan had used earlier only for Atty. Vinluan to object.
Atty. Ligutans response — “The sauce for the goose must be the sauce for the gander.”
HAHA. Checkmate. 😎
Imagine a Sara Duterte presidency with the Senate under her control.
Partida hindi pa siya Presidente ngayon pero para bang kontrolado niya ang Senado.
Imagine an insane, corrupt, abusive, and a violent person in the most powerful seat in the Philippines — WITHOUT GUARDRAILS.
Ang pinaka magiging unintentional effect talaga ng kung ano mang ginagawa ng majority ngayon ay ang pagkakabuo nito 11 senators as a minority, probably the strongest minority we’ve seen for a while.
These would have been different had the open fire incident didn’t happen. Mas tumibay yung paninindigan nung 11 senators dahil karangalan na ng institusyon yung nakasalalay. At sa bawat galaw ng mayorya, tumitibay yung bond na nabubuo sa grupong ‘to at umiingay din ang pangalan nila.
Nakakatuwa kasi hindi na nag-iisa si Sen. Risa na umaalma. May boses na ang minorya.
This group is one to watch over the next few weeks or even months.
Alan Peter Cayetano, stop using the Bible for your propaganda. Comparing yourself to the Prophet Jeremiah is insulting. Jeremiah stood for truth and accountability, not political theatrics. Filipinos are tired of politicians weaponizing faith for personal ambition!
Kaloka! Matagal na absent at hindi nagtrabaho. Pumasok lang para mamulitika at ipagtanggol si Sara.
Because they cannot muster a strong defense for VP Sara, they choose to prevent the trial from convening
As I said, I serve at the pleasure of my colleagues. But rest assured, Senate President or not, my allegiance is to the Constitution and my loyalty is to the Filipino people. I lift everything to my creator. God bless the Philippines.
'NAKAKAHIYA NAMAN — DAHIL SA IMPEACHMENT LANG, MAGPAPALIT NG LIDERATO'
WATCH: Senator Erwin Tulfo denies knowledge of any efforts to unseat Senate President Tito Sotto ahead of a potential impeachment trial, adding that he sees no need for a change in leadership.
Senator Loren Legarda, another member of the majority bloc, says "wala naman" but she stopped short of confirming whether colleagues had approached her regarding a brewing leadership coup. | @eimorpsantos
Doesn't show up to work for six months while still being paid, destabilizes the Senate, ousts the sitting SP.
I love it when our taxes line the pockets of incompetent manchildren 🙃
