Masterful delivery by Sen. Marcoleta of motion to dismiss impeachment, later to archive the impeachment case vs the VP
It is more fun criticizing
The dellivery and content were well done and answering of the interpellation was incisive and clear. No one can dispute the facts. Sen Marcoleta is clearly the more cogent Senators, sharpened by long years of experience as trial lawyer and being involved in past impeachment cases
It is clear that from gist of arguments:
1. SC is not interfering in powers of Senate;
2. In a judicial review, it merely is saying that the Senate has not acquired jurisdiction because HOR did not follow the procedures as enumerated in the Constitution when filing impeachment cases
3. That there should be an impeachment vs impeachable persons is not being denied.
4. The arguments of the detractors is about law and order but constitional adherence has not been observed, as SC has ruled.
Sen Bam Aquino was forceful in going on with the impeachmentt but before he said there were other matters that needed attention. but now for him this is the important agenda.
Sen Hontiiveros we found later on relied on AI for her citing of precedents. It was found out that reversala of decisions came from the cases by 5 man divisions not the SC en banc.
The oppositors were clearly practicing what old lawyers have emphasized: if you do not have the facts, pound on the table
There is a one year wait until Feb. until a new case can be filed vs VP Sarah. Those who are hell bent on power struggle.
