They are masterpieces in pawn moves in chessboard of political power struggle between North and South corridors of power. There were no bloodbaths, impeachment no fireworks on the surface but effectively:
1. The coffers of the southeners have been defunded; no ammo for 2025 and 2025 political battles
2. The perception for the Southeners have been lowered and political clout have been diminished
1. Connecting Alice Gou, Tony Yang to durgs, pogo and criminality
\ 2. PCSO death, Leonardo and GM of PCSO links war on drugs ICC investigation
3. Bato and Bong Go's future for reelection have been dimmed by connecting them to number 2
This is masterful. By gathering congressmen who are adept at interrogation/investigation, they have gathered much more evidence and prevented white or blackwash if NBI, CIDG, were allowed to handle the same Effectively this was an impeachment, a demolition job and the other side could not do anything to stop this. They could only mobilize the trolls.
However one worries what the fmr leader would do if cornered. He does not make empty threats/promises. It is clear that their former friends from the north have reneged on their promise not to have ICC warrants of arrest. But it is now becoming louder. We do not know what Senator Bato, and former generals or those who will be persecuted in the drug war could stage if cornered if not given a choice. Another military upheaval. ?
