Is he hiding or is he hiding?
Former Presidential Spokesperson Atty. Harry Roque appeared recently in social media claiming that he is not a “fugitive,” or someone running from the law. Instead, he says he is only running from the House of Representatives he now calls a ”kangaroo court.”
Now hold on there. Isn’t the House of Representatives the office of the agents of the people? Therefore, the House represents the people in general. So, it is safe to say that Roque is running from the people who want answers and not selfies and videos of him and his male assistants. The KOJC calls them “pastorals.”
Nevertheless, it would be best if he submits to the House committee the document he promised he would be giving them. House lawmakers suspect Roque’s involvement in the operations of POGOs because of a sudden rise in his assets and for helping secure a renewal of an illegal POGO license from PAGCOR.
The quad comm has also issued a show cause order to his wife Myla but it is reported she has left the country. The quad comm has been relentless in investigating the illegal operations of POGOs and drug-related EJKs during the Duterte regime.
But now comes Atty. Melvin Matibag, an ex-Duterte cabineteer who has filed a disbarment case against Roque for a social media post he made about the President in a deep fake video showing him snorting cocaine.
The same went viral in July, but it soon died a natural death because of its obvious fakery. But Roque said that the video is a matter of national security. This is the same Roque who called on the public to march to Malacañang and to prepare VP Sara Duterte for the transition to the presidency.
The PNP now have leads on his whereabouts and it won’t be long now until he is cornered in the same manner Apollo Quiboloy was, in all his arrogance and tittle-tattles.
KOJC’s fakery
The Kingdom Of Jesus Christ (KOJC) issued an official statement dated September 21, 2024 hitting the “brutality” of the PNP towards their “illegal, unlawful, forcible entry of police forces using lawless violence and the despicable and blasphemous desecration of KOJC holy ground search at random of every building, cathedral, made into as command post, using every facility for their personal use, urinating, smoking, defecating is the devil’s manifestation of evil at its worst.”
It is said that their members were harassed during their search for their “Messiah.” Well, I say the real danger is not the “siege” but the fakery of what Apollo Quiboloy has given his flock.
As sheep are known to be stupid and submissive and are unmindful of their surroundings, they have become the real victims of a shepherd in wolf’s clothing.
No amount of press releases and statements can alter the fact that Quiboloy must pay for his sins of his pretentious, abusive spirit. Hand him over to the US authorities pronto.
Imee now a hard sell
Honestly, it will be quite difficult for the Marcos loyalists today to swallow Imee. Given all the circumstances involving her pronouncements and seeming traitorous acts against her own brother, it would be much better to spit her out. Sorry to be blunt, but that is what I have gathered from the inner sanctum of the royal, loyal red shirts.
This is due to her continued friendship with VP Sara Duterte even to the point of defending her what with her blunders and intentional gaffes. Truth is, the Dutertes and their political allies are in for a cruel karmic force that will decimate all that they ever built.
The restless ghosts of the EJK victims will see to it that karma frowns at them incessantly, exacting revenge to the max. And from all that pretentious stance of loving our country, to the silly utterances against the Marcoses like these accusers were a better choice.
I foresee the end of the Dutertes come 2028, when party alliances and mergers would not endorse any of them to run for public office, but instead, would be running from the law. ICC may be coming just like Santa Claus this Christmas.
And for VP Sara Duterte leaving it all to Congress to decide on the budget of her office, one can never demand respect and not show it at the same time. But even her most rabid supporters know this, and simple pride dulls correct thinking and proper manners.
The hell with tradition – we are inquiring how public money was spent, which begs a satisfactory reply, and not some rude and ill-mannered behavior to smokescreen an obvious violation.
How could one go wrong with that, unless the one being asked is hiding something. So one wonders what Imee thinks about all these pain in the buttocks.
