00:00Good afternoon, Usec.
00:07In a Facebook Live last night, Davao City Mayor Bastedo Terte mentioned, or he described,
00:14that their situation is difficult now, that they are being singled out by the President,
00:21and that they are being targeted by the Marcos administration.
00:27Did he say something like that?
00:30He mentioned that it is difficult for them to be targeted,
00:37and that it is difficult for them to be singled out by the President.
00:42That's what he said.
00:44Okay. Does being singled out mean that he wants more people to be targeted?
00:49Let's remember that in the War on Topharis, the former President Duterte was described as an indirect co-perpetrator.
00:59So, did he mean that his father should not be the only one to be arrested?
01:04Because there are people who did not even go to the police station.
01:08Well, anyway, what this means is that he wants to reach the people,
01:14but the Dutertes are pitiful again because they are being singled out.
01:20The Warrant of Arrest is only for the former President Duterte.
01:25There are no other co-perpetrators there yet.
01:30So, we cannot avoid the fact that the former President Duterte is the only one to be surrendered to the ICC.
01:38Let's remember that this case, we will repeat, was not filed during the time of the former President Marcos of PBBM.
01:49This is still the time of his father, the former President Duterte.
01:55He just left the ICC to avoid filing a case.
02:00Let's remember why he filed a case in the ICC.
02:02Because in the ICC, immunity from suit is not recognized.
02:07That is why he is the only one in the ICC.
02:11So, there is no single out here.
02:13What happened here, the cases here about the crimes against humanity,
02:19will also be done by his father who is being targeted by them.
02:25And another, Usec.
02:27He also mentioned that it is just a diversionary tactic of the Marcos administration to have his father arrested
02:34so that the public will forget about the issues in PhilHealth and GAA 2025.
02:41PhilHealth is easy for us to explain.
02:45Before this happened, we talked about it.
02:48As I promised you, before this arrest and surrender happened to the former President Duterte,
02:53we will talk to PhilHealth.
02:55We already have one.
02:56We are not just releasing it because the issue now is about the ICC.
03:02And maybe people will not understand if we are talking about a different issue.
03:08But it is easy to explain what happened to PhilHealth.
03:12And about GAA, we will let it be because we are following the principle, the Enrolled Bill Principle.
03:19This is not a diversionary tactic.
03:22Okay?
03:24What we will not talk about now is about the confidential funds.
03:30It is good that these fake receipts came out again.
03:38Because it seems that people will forget where the confidential funds are
03:43that were entrusted to Vice President Pipisara.
03:50So this is not a diversionary tactic.
03:52These are not diversionary issues that we will talk about.
03:55Why?
03:56It is just happening.
03:57This is what is happening.
03:59Day by day, news is happening.
04:01So this is not a diversionary tactic.
