IMPEACHABLE OFFENSESThe Constitution limits the offenses to the following: culpable violation of the Constitution, treason, bribery, graft and corruption, other high crimes, or betrayal of public trust.In the 1935 and 1975 constitution, betrayal of public trust was not an impeachable offense.Culpable violation of the constitution EditFor purposes of impeachment, "culpable violation of the Constitution" is defined as "the deliberate and wrongful breach of the Constitution." Further, "Violation of the Constitution made unintentionally, in good faith, and mere mistakes in the proper construction of the Constitution, do not constitute an impeachable offense."Treason EditAccording to the Revised Penal Code, treason is defined as "Any Filipino citizen who levies war against the Philippines or adheres to her enemies, giving them aid or comfort within the Philippines or elsewhere."Bribery EditThe Revised Penal Code defines bribery in two forms:Direct bribery is "committed by any public officer who shall agree to perform an act constituting a crime, in connection with the performance of this official duties, in consideration of any offer, promise, gift or present received by such officer, personally or through the mediation of another."Indirect bribery is "committed by a public officer when he accept gifts offered to him by reason of his office."Graft and corruption EditAny violation of the Republic Act No. 3019, or the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act is an impeachable offense.Other high crimes or betrayal of public trust EditIn Francisco Jr. vs. Nagmamalasakit na mga Manananggol ng mga Manggagawang Pilipino, Inc., the Supreme Court purposely refused to define the meaning of "other high crimes or betrayal of public trust," saying that it is "a non-justiciable political question which is beyond the scope of its judicial power." However, the Court refuses to name which agency can define it; the Court impliedly gives the power to the House of Representatives, which initiates all cases of impeachment.
I had been struggling with this for the longest time and I have to say beforehand na mahal ko at idol ko ang pamilya Robredo, bawat isa sa kanila. Alam ni Mam Leni how much I admire each and every member of her incredible family hence I have been asked so many times why I am not #RoRo as everyone expected. So let me be my usual honest self here on FB(na alam ko alam din ni Mam Leni) and say na na-disappoint ako talaga nung tumakbo si Mam Leni (kaibigan ko siya sa totoong buhay at dito rin sa FB) hindi dahil sa hindi ako naniniwala sa kakayahan niya( she's a lawyer) or her principles(Sir Jesse always paid tribute to her as the woman behind him) but moreso because of her choice to run for VP with Mar.Yan ang totoo.Ngayon lang sa FB ko, lumabAs ang post niya About her President being the best choice Kaya just allow me to share why I struggle with this and why I won't vote for any VP when everyone thinks she is the lesser evil choice because she is simple and sincere. I agree on all those points and laud and love her for it but it doesn't mean that is the best choice for me or for us.We shouldn't settle.I sincerely wished she had said no to Mar then I would've applauded her for it. You see, that was the harder choice to make.Her choice of Mar says a lot and let me share why it matters to me.Nung buhay pa si Sir Jesse nakakasama ko siya ng dinner tuwing Dec.25 sa Naga dahil mayroon kaming common close friend na nagbbday taon taon. Dun ko siya nakakausap at marami akong alaalA ng mga lessons na natutunan sa kanya kasabay ng mga personal niyang kwento. Pero nung naging DILG Secretary siya, I knew he'd be in trouble. How could he not be? The one truly honest politician in a sea of dishonest wolves. The first Xmas after he was at the DILG, umiba ang hitsura niya. Mukhang pagod,tumanda. Hindi ako nagulat. Naawa ako sa ginawa nila sa kanya nung bus hostage crisis. Sa kanya binaling ng gobyerno ni Pnoy ang pagsisisi. He humbly apologized and swallowed everything. Naisip ko noon, nagsimula na ang paninira sa kanya para maalis siya sa pwesto. The following Xmas I saw him I told him to keep strong and that we would pray for him. Hindi ko makalimutan hanggang ngayon [textspeak!] sinabi niya sa akin. He told me na yes, he needed our prayers. Di ko makalimutan sinabi niya kung bakit .."Alam mo ba Eva sa purchasing of firetrucks pa lang, kung bibigay ako, isang pirma lang,I get nine million per district." ... I understood what he was saying. Katulad din ng struggle natin sa pang-araw araw na buhay pagdating sa tama at mali. Mahirap dahil talamak na at ginagawa ng marami. It was normal to just sign and he was struggling all by himself NOT to. Pagkatapos noong Xmas na yon di na kami masyadong nagkita hanggang nung namatay siya. To be honest, I believed the stories and suspicions that the government did it...that maybe he was assassinated.Because he was not going with the flow I believed in the possibility. I struggled to accept that the bodyguard lived and he ddn't.Kung buhay siya ngayon, I don't think we would be arguing on who would be President.So l freaked out when I saw the photo of Mam Leni with the Pnoy people at the wake smiling in front of Sir Jesse's ataul on the national dailies.Inisip ko paano niya kinaya?Naisip ko nun such bad taste dahil ni imbestigasyon kung paano nangyari, walang ginawa sina Pnoy at Mar.Nung ipinalit si Mar ke Sir Jesse that's where they lost me fully. Walang kaalam alam si Mar sa ganon. He was never a mayor who dealt with local government, policemen,etc. and sureenough, he proved, all by himself, what a disappointment he could be. Nanghinayang ako.Idol ko siya noon sa DTI kasi dun siya magaling. Months on, nag -fade nalang ang kaso ng pagkamatay ni Sir Jesse pero di ko nakalimutan [textspeak!] kuwento niya about the firetrucks. Kaya ganon nalang ang pagkagulat ko noong pumayag si Mam Leni. Naisip ko kung ako, alam ko [textspeak!] kwento ng firetrucks, malamang alam din niya. So why is she choosing to support the govt that she knows firsthand still supports graft and corruption? If you know my wall, hindi pa viral noon, I would repost scenes of Mam Leni commuting kasi totoo un, pati si Sir Jesse ganon.Simple, totoo at kakaiba sa nakasanayan ng mga politiko.Pero how I wished she had said no to running for VP this year on the same premise that as much as I believe in her and Poe's sincerity, learning from Cory (when it shouldve been Doy or Salonga) , we shouldn't vote for people based on surnames alone. I wish she had run for Senator first instead. That experience coupled with her being congresswoman would've made her an absolute choice for me as VP or maybe President in the next elections even. But for this election, I've always remembered Sir Jesse Robredo's firsthand account and kept in mind his practice about doing what's right and not popular.Integrity when no one was watching.Sir Jesse was truly brave.Hence I chose Digong for he, like Sir Jesse ,are of the few who are truly brave.One ,standing up against the #silentmajority who just want you to sign blindly and in exchange,give you their full oligarch support. I want to support someone who is bravely choosing to fight against the establishment so that more people in government wouldnt have to struggle signing like Sir Jesse did.Doing what's right would be the norm,the popular.Mam Leni I wouldve supported had she been braver-saying no to the party who would continue the corruption, saying no because it's not yet the right time and saying no,I believe, in being the running mate of a man who is , passionately fighting to continue everything that was wrong about the government Sir Jesse struggled to be part of.
