Day 41, The Shortest One Ever

It took  all of 26 minutes before the 41st day of trial adjourned. There were 22 senators  present and guess who was conspicuously absent. Hmm…Tatang Cuevas wore black, a change from his usual  white and off-white formal suit of the past. Bear with me, I am just making you laugh but the trial is no [...]

The Walkout (Drama On The 40th Day)

My head aches just thinking of what happened today at the Impeachment trial of CJ Corona. Gosh, it was a pathetic gesture of a man desperate enough to hold on to his position.  Here are his  famous last words, “And now the Chief Justice of the Republic of the Philippines wishes to be excused”.

Learning Something On Hearsay Evidence, HDO and WLO

Honestly, I Am Getting Tired Of This Impeachment Trial

Although this is a learning curve for most  of us simply because this [...]
