[0:18] Kung saan, anumang minuto mula ngayon, ano, ay magsisimula ng oral arguments. [0:24] Kung papayagan pa ng impeachment court ang pagsapina sa mga bank records, BIR records, and AMLAC records. [0:31] Patungkol sa Article 2 ng impeachment trial laban dito kay Vice President Sara Duterte. [1:04] Please bow our heads and pray. [1:12] Heavenly Father, we come to you seeking the gift of your grace as we gather in this August Chamber to fulfill our duties as Senator Judges. [1:23] Grant us the gifts of humility, discernment, and wisdom. [1:28] Keep our sights set firmly on the truth.

[2:12] The clerk of court will now call the roll. [2:17] Roll call of members. [2:20] Sen. Judge Aquino [2:22] Sen. Judge Cayetano Pia [2:26] Sen. Judge De La Rosa [2:28] Sen. Judge Ejercito [2:30] Sen. Judge Estrada [2:32] Sen. Judge Go [2:34] Sen. Judge Ontiveros [2:36] Sen. Judge Lacson [2:37] Sen. Judge Lapid [2:39] Sen. Judge Legarda [2:41] Sen. Judge Marcoleta [2:43] Sen. Judge Marcos [2:45] Sen. Judge Padilla [2:46] Sen. Judge Pangilinan [2:48] Sen. Judge Soto III [2:50] Sen. Judge Tulfo Irwin [2:52] Sen. Judge Tulfo Rafi [2:55] Sen. Judge Villanueva [2:56] Sen. Judge Villar Camil [2:58] Sen. Judge Villar Mark [3:00] Sen. Judge Zubiri [3:02] The presiding officer [3:03] Sen. Judge Escudera [3:05] Sen. President Cacchallian [3:06] With 90 senators present, the chair declares the presence of a quorum. [3:11] What is the pleasure of Sen. Judge Padilla? [3:24] Yes, sir? [3:25] Magandang tanghali po sa ating tagapamahalang hukum. [3:30] Magandang hapon din po. [3:31] At sa atin pong ginoong Pangulo, nais ko lamang po magbigay ng isang maigsing manipesto. [3:38] The gentleman has two minutes. [3:41] Maraming salamat po. [3:43] Aaudu billahi minasaitanu rajim. Bismillahirrahmanirrahim. [3:46] Mga mahamahal kong kasama, nais ko lamang pong idulog sa inyo ang aking nararamdaman, ang isang damdaming masasabi ko pong nagtatanong. [4:01] Sa pagkat ang mga nangyayari po sa ating hukuman sa mga oras na ito, hindi ko pa alam kung ito ba ay eksakto lang na nangyayari o ito po ba ay sinasadya. [4:16] Katulad po ng pagkakakulong ng ating dalawang Sen. Judge, na si Sen. Jingo Estrada at si Sen. Rodante Marcoleta. [4:28] At ang kagiyat pong pagdating ng aming mga masasabing galing sa ombudsman, sa akin, at kay Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano. [4:46] At kahapon, pagkatapos pong ng isang araw na mabanggit ang patungkol sa pagpunta ng ating mahal na NBI Director sa Bangkok, [5:00] at ito po ay kinwestiyon ni Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano, kahapon po ay biglang lumabas ang isang pahayag na iniimbestigahan daw po [5:14] yung patungkol sa pangyayari noong Southeast Asian Games. [5:21] Ito po ba ay eksakto lang o ito po ba ay merong dapat tayong pangambahan? [5:29] Sa pangkat, alam niyo po, ako din po ay dapat ay pupunta ng Iran. [5:36] Sa pangkat, isinagawa po ang pagbibigay-pugay sa namatay na kanilang leader, spiritual leader. [5:47] Pero hindi po ako tumuloy dahil may impeachment po tayo. [5:51] Tanong ko lamang po sa ating mga kasama, [5:55] dapat po ba tayong mangamba? [5:57] Dapat po ba kaming mangamba? [5:59] At tayo po ay parang eksakto naman lahat ito? [6:03] Hindi ba po tayo ay malayang korte? [6:07] Tayo po ay may karapatan na binibigay ng konstitusyon na magsagawa po ng pagdinig na ito. [6:15] Yung lamang po, maraming salamat po, ginoong tagapamahalang hukom. [6:20] The manifestation of Sen. Judge Padilla is noted. [6:24] What is the pleasure of Sen. Judge Cayetano? [6:26] Mr. Presiding Officer, [6:27] Rule 6 of the impeachment proceedings is that [6:32] the rules of the Senate is supletory. [6:36] And if there is anything that [6:38] affects the [6:41] honor, integrity, [6:44] or the functions of us [6:45] individually, or as a [6:47] Senate here, as an impeachment [6:50] court, someone can rise [6:52] on a question of personal [6:55] or collective privilege. [6:56] I won't do that, but may I [6:58] just respond to what [7:00] Senator Padilla said [7:03] since my name was mentioned [7:04] and since [7:05] the investigation [7:07] announced by the NBI yesterday [7:10] seems to be [7:12] pertaining to this person [7:15] as chairman of the [7:16] 2019 [7:17] organizing committee [7:20] of the Southeast Asian Games. [7:22] May I [7:22] maybe [7:23] in the [7:24] form of [7:24] manifestation [7:25] unless [7:26] the [7:26] presiding officer [7:27] or Senate [7:28] president [7:28] thinks that I should [7:30] elaborate on [7:31] by asking for [7:37] time on a [7:38] personal [7:39] collective [7:39] privilege, but I don't [7:40] want to start the [7:40] procedure. [7:41] Senator Judge [7:41] Cayetano may make his [7:43] manifestation. [7:44] For the record, sir. [7:45] So, first and foremost, [7:47] sa sinabi po ni [7:48] Senator Padilla, [7:50] I won't ask na ipa [7:51] play na yung [7:52] video, [7:53] but quite [7:54] exhaustive yung [7:55] sinabi ni NBI [7:56] director about the [7:57] Southeast Asian Games. [8:00] So, if the [8:00] intention was to have a [8:02] chilling effect, we [8:03] already have that [8:04] chilling effect. [8:06] May 11, [8:07] hinabol dito sa [8:08] session hall na to [8:09] ng mga ahente ng [8:10] NBI, si [8:11] Senator Bato. [8:13] May 13, [8:15] nagkaroon ng [8:16] enkwentro, [8:16] putukan, [8:17] pinipilit ng [8:18] NBI na hindi [8:19] sa loob ng [8:19] Senado, but we [8:20] have all the [8:21] evidence that it [8:21] was inside the [8:22] Senate. [8:24] Other [8:25] incidents, [8:27] I do not want [8:27] to evoke [8:29] a reaction [8:30] or debate [8:31] because I want [8:32] to respect [8:32] my fellow [8:33] Senators. [8:34] Much of this [8:35] has been [8:35] vented [8:36] in the [8:37] media, [8:38] is in [8:38] court. [8:41] Director [8:44] Matibag [8:44] has promised [8:45] us that he [8:46] will give [8:46] us a [8:46] warrant [8:47] issued [8:48] by the [8:48] ICC, [8:49] has promised [8:49] us that [8:50] he will [8:50] hold [8:50] his [8:52] agents [8:53] he will [8:57] be the [8:57] one to [8:58] implement [8:58] the [8:59] contempt [8:59] order [8:59] and hold [9:00] them in [9:00] his [9:00] office, [9:01] but [9:01] wala [9:02] ditong [9:02] natupad. [9:04] So when [9:04] I mentioned [9:05] his name, [9:07] his position [9:08] the other [9:08] day that [9:09] it was [9:09] bad taste, [9:10] walang [9:11] personal [9:11] yun. [9:12] I mean, [9:12] regardless [9:12] kung [9:13] sinong, [9:14] even if [9:14] it was [9:15] a [9:15] secretary, [9:20] an alter [9:20] ego of [9:20] the [9:20] president [9:21] who wrote [9:22] the [9:22] prosecution [9:23] team [9:24] or the [9:24] defense [9:24] team [9:24] to say [9:25] pwede [9:25] bang [9:25] next [9:26] week [9:26] kasi [9:26] may [9:26] seminar, [9:27] I would [9:27] have said [9:28] the same [9:28] thing, [9:28] di ba? [9:29] Na, [9:29] you know, [9:30] look at [9:30] the gallery, [9:31] completo [9:32] parati [9:32] diyan, [9:33] from [9:33] congressman [9:34] Ace [9:35] Barbers to [9:35] many [9:36] congressman [9:36] Ridwan, [9:37] I won't [9:37] name all [9:38] of you, [9:38] but you're [9:39] busy [9:39] people, [9:40] but you [9:40] think this [9:41] is [9:41] important, [9:42] so you [9:42] take [9:42] time [9:42] out, [9:43] and you [9:43] are [9:43] here, [9:44] di ba? [9:44] Of [9:45] course, [9:45] the [9:45] prosecution [9:45] team, [9:46] you [9:46] have to [9:46] be here, [9:46] you [9:47] are [9:47] here, [9:47] we [9:48] are [9:48] here, [9:49] despite [9:49] of [9:49] many, [9:50] many [9:50] other [9:50] important [9:51] things, [9:52] not only [9:53] investigations, [9:53] not only [9:54] the flood [9:54] control, [9:55] not only [9:55] the [9:55] BIR, [9:56] not only, [9:57] we're also [9:58] talking about [9:58] the nation [9:59] being [10:00] prone [10:03] to [10:03] volcanic [10:04] eruption [10:05] to [10:06] yung [10:06] bagyo, [10:07] buti, [10:08] well, [10:09] nasalanta pa rin [10:10] tayo [10:10] nung [10:10] bagyong [10:11] inday, [10:11] ibang [10:11] inday [10:12] ang pinag-uusapan [10:12] natin [10:13] dito [10:13] sa [10:13] impeachment, [10:14] but [10:14] still, [10:16] we [10:17] here, [10:18] so [10:18] it [10:18] was [10:18] in [10:18] good [10:19] faith [10:19] that [10:19] I [10:19] said, [10:20] as [10:20] an [10:20] example, [10:22] mukha [10:22] namang [10:22] masama [10:23] kapag [10:23] kayong [10:23] isang [10:24] bureau [10:24] head, [10:26] NBI [10:27] director [10:27] is a [10:28] very [10:28] important [10:28] position, [10:29] but [10:29] it [10:29] is [10:29] a [10:29] bureau, [10:30] so [10:31] if [10:31] a [10:31] bureau [10:31] head, [10:32] and [10:32] tignan [10:32] yung [10:32] invitation, [10:33] nakalagay [10:33] si [10:33] invitation, [10:34] or [10:34] your [10:35] representative, [10:36] and [10:36] we [10:36] resolved [10:37] it, [10:38] so [10:38] accidente [10:39] ba [10:39] na [10:39] yesterday, [10:41] suddenly, [10:41] after [10:42] I [10:42] mentioned [10:42] it, [10:45] and [10:45] after [10:46] during [10:46] the [10:47] weekend, [10:47] many [10:47] have [10:47] been [10:48] talking [10:48] about [10:48] na [10:49] dapat [10:49] ata [10:50] hindi [10:50] 16, [10:51] so [10:51] 21 [10:52] na lang [10:52] kami [10:52] ngayon, [10:53] so [10:54] 2 [10:54] thirds [10:54] of [10:55] 21 [10:55] is [10:55] 7, [10:57] pag [10:57] nabawasan [10:58] pa kami [10:58] ng [10:58] tatlo, [11:00] 13 [11:00] na lang [11:01] yun, [11:02] pero [11:02] some [11:02] will [11:03] argue [11:03] mabawasan [11:04] lang [11:04] kami [11:04] ng [11:04] isa [11:04] o [11:05] dalawa, [11:06] baka [11:07] 13 [11:07] na [11:07] rin [11:07] yun, [11:08] kasi [11:08] wala [11:08] naman [11:08] half [11:08] person [11:09] or [11:09] three [11:09] fourths [11:10] person, [11:11] so [11:11] all [11:12] of [11:12] these [11:12] issues [11:12] are [11:13] valid. [11:13] Question, [11:15] the chilling [11:15] effect is [11:16] there, [11:16] but [11:16] am I [11:16] intimidated? [11:17] Wala [11:17] na akong [11:18] choice. [11:20] Ilalabang [11:20] ko na to, [11:21] gagawin ko yun [11:21] yung dapat [11:22] kong gawin. [11:23] Bumaliktad [11:24] man yung [11:24] sitwasyon, [11:26] si [11:26] President [11:26] Marcos [11:27] ang [11:27] iniimpeach [11:28] and I [11:28] felt [11:29] a [11:29] certain [11:29] way, [11:29] ilalabang [11:30] ko [11:30] rin. [11:31] Chief [11:32] Justice [11:32] man [11:32] ang [11:32] iimpeach, [11:33] ilalabang [11:34] ko [11:34] rin. [11:35] But [11:35] for [11:35] the [11:35] record, [11:36] Mr. [11:36] President, [11:37] go [11:37] ahead [11:38] and [11:38] investigate. [11:39] First [11:39] of [11:39] all, [11:40] that's [11:40] been [11:40] investigated [11:41] many, [11:41] many [11:41] times. [11:43] COA, [11:44] I'm not [11:44] sure, [11:45] I think [11:45] the [11:45] Office [11:45] of [11:45] the [11:45] Ombudsman [11:46] ang [11:47] nag-file pa [11:47] ata, [11:48] Chief [11:48] of [11:48] Staff [11:48] mo eh. [11:50] Senator [11:50] Rob, [11:51] I'm not [11:51] sure, [11:51] but [11:51] parang [11:52] may [11:52] kaso [11:52] na nun. [11:55] Senator [11:55] Drilon [11:56] quizzed [11:57] us [11:57] here. [11:58] I [11:58] was [11:58] Speaker [11:59] of [11:59] the [11:59] House, [11:59] but [11:59] I [12:00] chose [12:00] to [12:00] appear [12:00] before [12:01] the [12:01] Senate [12:01] to [12:01] be [12:02] able [12:02] to [12:02] answer [12:03] all [12:04] of [12:04] those [12:04] questions [12:05] directly. [12:06] The [12:07] C [12:11] Huli [12:11] namin [12:12] yung [12:12] PR [12:12] na [12:13] sinabi [12:13] kikiam, [12:15] pinakain [12:15] daw [12:15] mga [12:16] Muslim [12:16] ng [12:16] baboy, [12:18] when [12:18] it [12:18] was [12:18] chicken [12:19] longganisa [12:20] na [12:21] pinakain, [12:22] pero [12:22] nasiraan [12:22] na tayo [12:23] sa [12:23] Malaysia, [12:24] Indonesia. [12:25] The [12:25] C Games [12:26] gave [12:26] us [12:26] so [12:26] much [12:27] honor. [12:27] So [12:27] far, [12:27] it's [12:28] still [12:28] the [12:28] biggest [12:29] C [12:30] Games [12:30] in [12:30] history. [12:32] Many [12:32] of [12:32] our [12:32] athletes [12:33] launched [12:33] their [12:33] career, [12:34] even [12:34] going [12:35] to [12:35] gold [12:36] medals [12:37] in [12:37] the [12:39] Olympics. [12:40] our [12:42] athletic [12:43] and [12:44] our [12:44] aquatic [12:46] center [12:48] in [12:48] Clark [12:49] is [12:50] one [12:50] of [12:50] the [12:51] best [12:51] in [12:51] the [12:51] world. [12:51] Ang [12:51] nagsabi [12:52] nito, [12:52] yung [12:52] Israeli [12:53] coach [12:53] ng [12:55] isang [12:55] foreign [12:55] team [12:56] doon. [12:56] But [12:56] go [12:56] ahead [12:56] if [12:56] you [12:57] want [12:57] to [12:57] investigate. [12:58] But [12:58] I [12:58] just [12:59] want [12:59] to [12:59] put [12:59] on [12:59] record, [13:00] mukhang [13:00] misfire. [13:01] Bakit? [13:03] Yung [13:04] sinasabi [13:04] niyang [13:05] infrastructure [13:06] na [13:07] walang [13:07] bidding, [13:08] first [13:09] of [13:09] all, [13:09] the [13:09] procurement [13:10] law [13:10] has [13:10] many [13:11] modes [13:11] of [13:11] procurement. [13:13] So don't [13:14] make [13:14] it [13:14] appear [13:15] sa [13:15] public [13:15] na [13:15] just [13:16] because [13:16] walang [13:16] bidding, [13:18] may [13:18] anomalya [13:18] na [13:18] to. [13:19] Okay. [13:20] Secondly, [13:20] bakit ko [13:21] sinabing [13:21] misfire, [13:23] hindi po, [13:24] I'm [13:24] referring to [13:25] director [13:26] ng [13:26] NBI [13:26] Matibag. [13:27] I [13:28] had [13:29] nothing [13:30] to [13:30] do [13:30] with [13:30] the [13:30] infrastructure, [13:32] the [13:32] chairman [13:32] of [13:32] the [13:32] committee. [13:33] In [13:34] fact, [13:34] I [13:35] had [13:35] to [13:35] resign [13:36] from [13:36] the [13:36] DFA [13:36] because [13:37] I [13:37] was [13:37] running [13:37] for [13:38] congressman [13:38] during [13:38] that [13:39] time. [13:40] So [13:40] doon [13:40] sa [13:40] sinasabi [13:41] ni [13:41] Director [13:42] Matibag [13:42] na may [13:43] congressional [13:43] insertion [13:44] to [13:44] fund [13:45] it, [13:46] it's [13:47] definitely [13:48] not [13:48] me [13:48] because [13:48] how [13:49] could [13:49] a [13:49] non-member [13:51] of [13:51] the [13:51] Senate [13:51] or [13:52] non-member [13:52] of [13:52] the [13:53] House [13:53] insert [13:54] anything. [13:55] Doon sa [13:57] sinasabi [13:58] niyang [13:58] infrastructure, [13:59] it was [13:59] done by [14:00] the [14:00] BCDA. [14:01] The [14:01] chairman [14:02] of the [14:02] BCDA [14:03] is one [14:03] of the [14:03] closest [14:04] advisors [14:04] of the [14:05] president [14:05] now. [14:07] The [14:07] president [14:07] of the [14:08] BCDA [14:09] is one [14:10] of the [14:10] closest [14:10] advisors [14:11] and is [14:11] a [14:12] secretary [14:12] now. [14:14] And [14:15] he [14:15] said [14:15] medyo [14:16] kaduda [14:16] tong [14:17] kumpanya [14:17] na [14:18] nanalo [14:18] walang [14:18] bidding. [14:19] If [14:19] I'm [14:20] not [14:20] mistaken, [14:20] it's [14:20] the [14:21] same [14:21] company [14:21] who's [14:22] making [14:22] the [14:22] city [14:22] hall [14:23] of [14:23] Pasig. [14:24] So [14:25] I [14:25] mean, [14:25] if [14:25] they [14:27] mentioned [14:29] the [14:30] organizing [14:30] committee [14:31] of [14:33] the [14:33] C [14:33] Games, [14:33] I'm [14:34] chairman [14:34] and [14:35] I [14:35] told [14:36] that [14:36] it's [14:36] great [14:37] and [14:38] if [14:38] there's [14:38] anomaliyah, [14:39] I'm [14:39] going to [14:40] go ahead. [14:42] But [14:43] my [14:44] point, [14:44] Mr. [14:45] Chairman, [14:45] honorable [14:46] members of [14:46] the [14:46] court, [14:47] to be [14:49] fair, [14:49] I've [14:51] never felt [14:52] any [14:52] intimidation [14:53] from [14:53] any [14:54] of [14:54] you. [14:55] I [14:55] mean, [14:55] you've [14:55] continued [14:56] to be [14:56] either [14:57] friends [14:57] or [14:57] for [14:57] those [14:58] who [14:58] are [14:58] former [14:58] friends [14:58] with [14:59] friends. [14:59] I [15:00] mean, [15:00] I [15:00] don't [15:01] know [15:01] if [15:01] I [15:01] nodded [15:03] to [15:04] Senator [15:05] DeLima. [15:06] He [15:06] did it. [15:06] He [15:06] did it. [15:07] He [15:07] did it. [15:07] He [15:08] did it. [15:08] Because [15:09] we were [15:09] friends once [15:10] upon a [15:10] time. [15:10] And [15:10] this [15:11] is [15:11] a [15:11] court. [15:12] We [15:12] owe it [15:12] to each [15:12] other [15:13] to be [15:13] professional. [15:14] So [15:15] don't [15:15] let us [15:15] come [15:16] to [15:16] someone [15:16] like [15:17] Director [15:17] Matibag [15:18] will [15:19] do [15:19] that. [15:20] My [15:20] point, [15:20] Mr. [15:21] President, [15:23] Mr. [15:23] President, [15:23] Officer, [15:25] he [15:25] could have [15:25] not [15:26] announced [15:26] it [15:26] and [15:26] investigated. [15:27] But [15:32] it [15:33] is [15:33] unfair [15:34] to me [15:34] and [15:34] unfair [15:35] to [15:35] the [15:35] court [15:35] that [15:36] when [15:37] he [15:37] will [15:37] call it [15:38] on. [15:39] What do you [15:39] intimidate [15:40] me? [15:40] I don't [15:40] want to ask you [15:41] to ask you [15:41] on Monday [15:41] because you [15:42] announced you [15:43] that you [15:43] did it. [15:45] Then you [15:46] said you [15:46] there [15:46] have [15:46] insertion [15:47] and not [15:49] liquidated. [15:50] Liquidated [15:50] all that. [15:51] So let [15:52] me talk [15:53] of [15:53] unfairness. [15:53] If I [15:54] come back [15:55] back to [15:55] say I [15:56] inimbestigahan [15:57] ko na [15:58] rin [15:58] kahapon [15:58] eh. [15:59] Ang [15:59] sabi [15:59] sa akin [16:00] mainit [16:00] ang ulo [16:01] ni [16:01] Director [16:01] Matibagta [16:02] kasi [16:02] may [16:03] contractor [16:03] na [16:04] daw [16:04] yung [16:04] binigay [16:05] na [16:05] lupa [16:05] para [16:05] sa [16:06] NBI [16:06] at [16:06] gusto [16:06] niya [16:07] sarili [16:07] niyang [16:07] contractor. [16:09] Would [16:09] that [16:09] be [16:09] fair [16:10] to [16:10] him? [16:11] No. [16:12] It [16:12] would [16:12] be a [16:12] Marites [16:13] accusation. [16:15] So [16:15] that's [16:15] the same [16:16] thing [16:16] he [16:16] announced [16:17] yesterday. [16:18] A [16:18] Marites [16:19] accusation [16:20] towards [16:21] me [16:22] that [16:23] affects [16:24] this [16:24] court [16:24] because I [16:25] am [16:25] now [16:25] a [16:26] senator [16:26] judge. [16:27] So [16:28] I [16:28] hope [16:28] this [16:28] is [16:28] the [16:29] last [16:29] time [16:29] that [16:30] I'm [16:31] going [16:31] to [16:31] have [16:31] to [16:31] speak [16:31] about [16:32] this. [16:33] But [16:33] definitely [16:34] we've [16:34] been [16:34] speaking [16:35] about [16:35] this [16:35] binabawasan [16:36] talaga [16:37] kami. [16:38] Iniisa-isa [16:39] even [16:39] yung [16:39] mga [16:39] vlogger [16:40] na [16:40] malapit [16:41] sa [16:41] administrasyon [16:42] sabi [16:43] two [16:43] down, [16:44] three [16:44] down, [16:44] may [16:45] kasunod [16:45] na. [16:46] Diba? [16:47] So [16:48] Mr. [16:48] President, [16:52] I [16:53] want [16:53] this [16:54] impeachment [16:55] to be [16:56] a test [16:57] that [16:59] the 1987 [16:59] constitution [17:00] works [17:01] and [17:02] that [17:02] despite [17:03] political [17:03] differences, [17:05] the [17:05] prosecution [17:06] and [17:06] defense, [17:07] I [17:07] saw [17:07] them [17:08] after [17:08] the [17:08] first [17:08] or [17:08] second [17:09] day, [17:09] nagkakamayang [17:10] kayo, [17:11] nagkakamustahan. [17:12] After [17:13] the [17:13] first [17:13] or [17:13] second [17:13] day [17:14] nung [17:14] mainit [17:15] nabaliktaktakan [17:16] dyan [17:17] sa [17:17] pretrial, [17:20] nagbabatian, [17:21] diba? [17:22] Even [17:22] in [17:22] court. [17:23] So [17:23] we [17:24] can't [17:24] help [17:24] but [17:24] be [17:25] emotional, [17:25] we [17:25] can't [17:26] help [17:26] but [17:26] get [17:26] mad [17:27] at [17:27] what [17:28] we [17:28] think [17:29] is [17:29] disgusting [17:29] or [17:30] sometimes [17:30] crossing [17:31] the [17:31] line. [17:32] But [17:33] is [17:33] there [17:33] any [17:34] question [17:34] that [17:35] for [17:35] this [17:35] verdict, [17:36] whether [17:36] it's [17:36] for [17:37] conviction [17:37] or [17:38] acquittal, [17:40] to be [17:40] accepted [17:41] by the [17:41] Filipino [17:41] people, [17:42] we [17:43] have [17:43] to [17:43] make [17:43] sure [17:44] that [17:44] the [17:44] integrity [17:45] of [17:45] the [17:46] court [17:46] is [17:46] intact. [17:47] I [17:48] will [17:49] admit [17:49] to [17:49] you [17:49] nahirapan [17:50] po [17:50] ko [17:50] wala [17:51] si [17:51] Senator [17:51] Marcolete [17:52] iilan [17:54] lang [17:54] po [17:55] kaming [17:55] abogado [17:55] dito [17:56] si [17:56] Senator [17:57] Pangilinan [17:59] Senator [18:00] Cheese [18:01] si [18:03] Aimee [18:03] is a [18:04] law [18:04] graduate [18:04] Senator [18:07] Pia [18:08] BAM [18:08] is a [18:09] second [18:09] year [18:09] law [18:10] student [18:10] and [18:10] I'm [18:11] encouraging [18:11] him [18:12] na [18:12] tapusin [18:13] niya [18:14] total [18:15] review [18:15] na [18:16] yung [18:16] nangyayari [18:16] ngayon [18:17] but [18:17] it's [18:19] not [18:19] easy [18:20] 24 [18:20] lang [18:21] kami [18:21] nabawasan [18:21] na [18:21] ng [18:22] tat [18:22] ro [18:22] so [18:22] I [18:23] hope [18:23] this [18:23] issue [18:23] of [18:24] the [18:24] integrity [18:25] of [18:25] the [18:26] court [18:26] becomes [18:26] an [18:26] issue [18:27] for [18:27] all [18:28] of [18:28] us [18:28] I'll [18:29] repeat [18:29] what [18:30] I [18:30] said [18:30] when [18:30] I [18:30] was [18:30] Senate [18:31] President [18:31] Director [18:32] hindi [18:32] mo [18:32] kami [18:33] natibag [18:34] so [18:35] huwag [18:35] mo [18:35] try [18:35] itibagin [18:36] tong [18:36] representation [18:37] na to [18:38] o [18:38] itong [18:39] impeachment [18:40] court [18:41] because [18:41] what [18:41] you're [18:41] doing [18:41] is [18:42] not [18:42] helping [18:42] investigate [18:44] whatever [18:44] you [18:44] want [18:45] investigate [18:45] you [18:45] want [18:45] to [18:46] investigate [18:46] ba [18:46] ako [18:46] nagpatubo [18:47] ng [18:47] balbas [18:47] investigate [18:49] mo [18:53] thank you [18:56] for the [18:56] leeway [18:57] presiding [18:58] officer [18:58] thank you [18:58] senator [18:59] judge [18:59] alan [19:00] quietano
