In A Move That Shocked The Liberal Party, VP Robredo Formally Joins Duterte Camp

692D75C3-AD25-4E19-8994-9DA5B6E5B958NAGA CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – One by one, they fall.  The Philippine Opposition is being decimated.

Nowhere is this more evident than in the last two days where the Supreme Court ruled to keep Senator Leila De Lima in jail and the House of Representatives voted to impeach COMELEC Chair Andy Bautista.

But no one ever thought that the leader of the Liberal Party, no less than Vice President Leni Robredo would herself change color.

Realizing that hope for the Opposition is all but dead, Robredo formally joined the Duterte camp and pledged to be a good girl from now on.

She joined Philippine National Police Chief Bato de la Rosa and other Naga City officials in a swearing in ceremony to formally join Duterte’s PDP-Laban Party.

All’s well that ends well.

Today, just days after the Supreme Court ruled to keep Senator Leila De Lima in jail and just hours after the House of Representatives voted to impeach Commission on Elections (COMELEC) Chair Andy Bautista, Aquino has come out for the first time to defend his successor.

To anyone who cries, “EJKs,” the former president has this to say:

”Buhay ka pa naman, di ba?’ (You’re still alive, aren’t you?)

Today, Bautista says he was resigning effective end of the year.

God finally talked to him.
