We beg to differ.
The eleven minority Philippine senators versus the thirteen (presumably pro-Duterte) majority framed as a good-versus-bad battle is just the “good” pot calling the “bad” kettle black. Recall how the same senators were falling all over themselves and one another currying favor with the administration during the term of former President Rodrigo Duterte. The only “opposition”…
Think what you may of the administration of President Bongbong Marcos. Whether you are a Dutertard or a Yellowtard, one thing’s certain: the Marcos presidency had single-handedly neutralised two polar camps of rabid cults of personality.

The morons in the Philippine Opposition continue to discuss and debate about why they continue to lose elections without even taking time out to get feedback from the voter base which wins people elections to begin with. Their efforts to vilify former President Rodrigo Duterte didn’t succeed. Their efforts to vilify the Marcoses succeeded for…
