INSTEAD OF talking to the law enforcement, instead of talking to the barangay captains, instead of talking to itong mga taong handling the rehabilitation, she made an asshole of herself.
(President Rodrigo Duterte on Vice President Leni Robredo’s stint as co-chair of the Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs)
Boring
NOT SHOCKING, not surprising, not unexpected. Boring, actually. The more exciting question is, between PRRD and VP Robredo, guess who’s laughing now.
(Senator Panfilo “Ping” Lacson on President Robredo’s sacking of VP Robredo as co-chair of ICAD )
Gaining
DURING HER stay as co-chair of ICAD we have not really noticed any report or missteps but in the continuing discussion, of course, there is that exchange of ideas and insofar as discussion on higher level, the PNP is not really involved anymore…
We were able to gain a lot of ideas from her especially her advocacy and her desire for community-based rehabilitation of drug users and, of course, her desire for a more transparent campaign against illegal drugs.
(PNP spokesperson Brig. Gen. Bernard Banac on the VP’s stint at ICAD)
Lying
THAT IS a lie. He wanted me to keep the P7.5 billion in DFA and I would manage it from my office after which I will go to jail. I returned it to Ben Diokno in DBM. The President was surprised. Nobody returns money that big. Well I do.
