Senators Bato dela Rosa and former Special Assistant to President and now re-electionist Senator Christopher “Bong” Go are in for a “big fight” for their political and personal lives. Worse, these issues being thrown at them may eventually impact the perception of their “publics” and frustrate their re-election chances.

Former PCSO Chair Garma directly implicated them in the controversial “rewards system” connected with the highly contentious anti-drugs campaign of their principal, former president Rodrigo Roa Duterte. The two gentlemen tried to parlay the verbal blows, with Bato accusing Garma of inventing the so-called “rewards system” patterned after what Garma said ” the Davao Model” in eliminating so-called scums of the earth, like drug pushers.

While former SAP Go issued a statement that specifically denied Garma’s accusations, one thing seems odd–his defense centered on the time he spent as SAP. He claims that even if such a reward system was implemented during his boss’ previous term, it happened when he was no longer a Malacanang habitue.

really now, hmmm.

Remember friends, that when Go became a Senator, he was always seen with the President. Just Google him and you’ll find Go always beside the President during most of the time. Go even prides himself being close to Mr. Duterte. So, now, Mr. Go, are you now saying that you don’t have the ear of the president or even privy with the goings on inside the Duterte administration? Hindi ba ang yabang mo nun na you have the eyes and ears of your boss, ex President Duterte? Why all of the sudden you are distancing yourself from him?

Worse, Go tried to appeal to the public to “preserve the gains of the anti-drugs campaign” of his former president. Really now? What was those gains, Senator Go?

Lesson: if you want your life to be simple and violence or scandal-free, always do the right thing.
