We called it back in the campaign leadup to the May 2022 national elections. Even back then, it was evident that the Opposition, presumed to be led by the Yellowtard-Communist Axis, already imagined the subsequent six years following that election marked by revenge directed at former President Rodrigo Duterte.
Among those they planned to “avenge” was the failure to renew the public broadcasting franchise of revered media conglomerate ABS-CBN. One of the pillars of the Opposition campaign was an initiative to get showbiz personalities to run for office and “push back”.

…the fact that the Opposition would actually espouse such an intellectually-bankrupt campaign platform as the Revenge Platform upon which former ABS-CBN starlets would run, as Badoy suggests, proves just how singularly-focused the Yellowtards are at seizing power at all costs. They would go as far as encouraging Filipino voters to vote like starstruck ignoramuses just to further their dishonest power-hungry agenda.
Fast forward to today with a catastrophic electoral defeat in that election behind them, the Yellowtard-Communist Axis remains firmly latched onto their quest for vengeance. Their strategy remains disturbingly the same — mount a trial-and-effort push into all conceivable avenues of attack. The avenues are all-too-familiar: impeachment, inviting foreign intervention, and getting in bed with enemies of their enemies among others. The latter is the most disturbing. They now cosy up to the administration of President Bongbong Marcos — people they once regarded as devils embodied.
To be fair, Opposition “thought leaders” find themselves in a conundrum. Marcos has, himself, cosied up to the Philippines’ former colonial master, the United States of which they are big fans of. Recall that the pivot away from the US and towards China that marked the Duterte administration was one of the things that sent the Yellowtards out hopping mad. The shared pro-America values they now share with the Marcos administration now has them “re-evaluating” their ideological foundations.
The only pathway to satisfying the bloodthirsty power-hungry agenda of the Yellowtard-Communist Axis is to crush the Duterte brand — even if it means getting into a mutual back-scratching alliance with the “evil” Marcos dynasty. The be-all-end-all objective here is to acquire (in the case of the Yellowtards, reacquire) power and glory. Often that means selling their souls to that singular goal. And these people will.

Okay big talker, I’d really love to watch you be the one to try and do it. Just make sure all of your affairs are in order BEFORE hand because you won’t be doing much afterwards. 😅😅😅
seems these nitwits are fixated on the inutile “international criminal court”
perhaps, a direct call to the justice league of america or the east coast avengers would be more appropriate in these critical and desperate times
better yet, i hear the new york sanctum of the sorcerer supreme is open 24 hours a day.
