Senator De Lima Blames President Duterte Why She was Ousted

I cannot hold to laugh at the situation, seeing Senator De Lima is pointing out her fingers to President Duterte, believing that the good man, the loving father, the living hero of the million Filipinos, the number one rightful man of this country - is the person she is blaming now why she was ousted from the Senate Chairmanship on the Justice and Human Rights Committee. Now Sen De Lima is the sweetest subject for headlines on print and digital media.

Why did the 16 Senators vote for her to be kicked out from the Senate Chairmanship of the Justice and Human Rights Committee?

Senator De Lima has violated the Senate Law or the Senate Rule, when at the time, she presented a witness in the named of Edgar Matobato on the Senate floor to testify that Extra Judicial Killings were achieved during the present administration that officially started from July 1, 2016 to date. But Matobato testimonies were found not connected to the present administration and that all the killings he presented in front of the Senate panel were happened from 1988 to 2013. The Senate found out that Mr. Matobato was not a credible witness but a big liar - being used to demoralize the president and eventually to oust President Duterte as planned by his political opponents.

Alam ko matalino si Sen De Lima, subali't ginamit ang kaniyang galing at talino at ang Senado sa pansariling interest para mapagtakpan at ma delay ang mga kasong haharapin niya na ayon sa lumalabas na mga balibalita ay naguugnay sa kaniya sa illegal drugs sa bansa.

The 16 senators who voted against De Lima are:

Senate President Aquilino Pimentel III
Senate Majority Floor Leader Vicente Sotto III
Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano
Sen. Juan Miguel Zubiri
Sen. Panfilo Lacson
Sen. Cynthia Villar
Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian
Sen. Gregorio Honasan
Sen. Sonny Angara
Sen. Joel Villanueva
Sen. Richard Gordon
Sen. Nancy Binay
Sen. Joseph Victor Ejercito
Sen. Manny Pacquiao
Sen. Loren Legarda
Sen. Grace Poe

Only 4 Senators voted for De Lima to keep the chairmanship of Justice and Human Rights Committee that is currently investigating the alleged extrajudicial killings happened during the Duterte administration. They are Senators Franklin Drilon, Risa Hontiveros, Francis Pangilinan and Paolo Benigno Aquino IV. And two senators voted abstain: Sen Antonio Trillaness IV and Sen Ralph Recto.
