Ah, the dynamic duo of Karen Davila and Richard Heydarian, our trusted voices of reason in the world of Philippine politics. In separate posts, they discussed the House of Representatives’ decision to cut off confidential intelligence funds for the Office of the Vice President, along with other agencies. According to them, it’s a victory for the people – their voice was heard. But not just any people, it’s the “new PEOPLE’s army.”

Davila and Heydarian, our modern-day prophets of populist wisdom, have truly outdone themselves this time. Forget the intricacies of budget allocations and national security; they’ve uncovered the true puppet masters at play – a clandestine organization of citizens, perhaps armed with smartphones and social media accounts, intent on reshaping the nation.

In this dystopian reality, Davila and Heydarian are our saviors, bravely standing up against the ominous “new PEOPLE’s army” armed only with microphones and questionable logic.

The satire writes itself – in a world where facts and reason are scarce, thank goodness we have our intrepid hosts to guide us through the madness.
