00:01Progressive groups file a second impeachment complaint against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Thursday, January 22.
00:08The impeachment petition, endorsed by the three-person Makabayan bloc, accuses Marcos of betrayal of public trust.
00:14The person supposed to receive the complaint, House Secretary-General Celoy Garafil, was not present.
00:19The petitioners insist that according to House rules, the complaint shall be filed with the office of the Secretary-General, not necessarily the Secretary-General herself.
00:29At yun na nga, ayaw nilang tanggapin, so ang ginawa ko namin ay nag-iwan kami ng kopya doon sa opisina.
00:37And as far as the complainants are concerned, we have complied with the rules.
00:44There is one impeachment complaint already filed against Marcos on Monday, January 19, endorsed by Pusong Pinoy Representative Jet Nisay.
00:52If that complaint is junked, Marcos essentially gets one year's immunity from impeachment.
00:57At ang pangamba natin, baka sinasadya na may mahilang complaint na sinasampa, at yun ang i-endorso, yun ang papaburan,
01:05para mapigilan yung iba pang complainants na maghain ng mas malakas na reklam.
01:11Later in the day, another group led by former Anakalusugan Congressman Mike Defensor attempted to file a third impeachment complaint,
01:17but was also unsuccessful due to Garafil's absence.
