An Open Letter To President Bongbong Marcos, Jr.

May 24, 2025 Pol Pinoy Leave a comment

To His Excellency, President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. :

I write this with the sincerest intention of uniting two great political dynasties who have generously ruled—er, served—the Filipino people. In the spirit of reconciliation (and mutual survival), may I humbly recommend the re-appointment of Madam Sara Duterte to a top cabinet post, preferably something as powerful as “Secretary of Everything.”

Her qualifications are unimpeachable: she once rode a big bike in a gown, mastered the ancient art of political poker face, and vanished from DepEd just in time to avoid accountability. Truly, a ninja of governance.

Appointing her would show your statesmanship, your generosity, and, most importantly, your desire to not have Davao Mayor Paolo Duterte call you “that guy” on Facebook.

Let us bridge the North and South—preferably with a highway named after both your fathers.

Sincerely yours,

A Concerned Citizen (with political instincts and possibly future ambitions)

Senator Bong Go’s Absence Is Telling

Senator Bong Go’s absence from The Hague, despite being Rodrigo Duterte’s most loyal aide, is striking—and politically telling.

While Duterte’s family, allies like Robin Padilla, Harry Roque and even fringe personalities like Maharlika and that insignificant Brit have made appearances in the Netherlands — with Senator Bato on his way — Go has remained notably distant. His silence and physical absence, in contrast to his once-constant shadowing of Duterte, suggest a calculated pivot.

With the 2028 presidential elections looming—and Go emerging as a frontrunner after topping the recent senatorial race—his avoidance may be strategic. Aligning too closely with a detained former president under ICC scrutiny could alienate moderate voters or international partners.

Go’s brand of loyalty may now be measured in optics, not proximity. As he seeks to broaden his appeal beyond Duterte’s base, he may be deliberately distancing himself from an increasingly controversial figure. The question isn’t whether Go has abandoned Duterte—but whether he’s repositioning himself as more than just Duterte’s man.

Wow, What A Concept! Marcos- Marcos-Romualdez!

Imee Marcos as Senate President? What a thrilling plot twist—straight out of a teleserye, but with more dynastic flair!

According to her, some senators approached her about it. Approached where, though? In a dream? A seance? Imagine: Bongbong as President, Imee as Senate President, and Martin Romualdez as Speaker. It’s like the Avengers, if the Avengers all shared the same last name and controlled three branches of government.

And who stands between them and total power? Sara Duterte, the lone wall between the Marcoses and a family reunion in Malacañang. But what if she resigns… or worse, suffers a tragic apple-choking incident during a merienda? Then Imee, her “BFF,” becomes VP. A Bongbong-Imee administration—like The Parent Trap, but with national consequences.

Philippine politics, truly where satire writes itself, and nepotism is just another family value. Stay tuned, this teleserye’s just getting started.
