00:11why, hindi ko talaga maintindihan, bakit there's room for interpretation, maraming
00:17excuses na pwedeng gawin, maraming magaling, gaya nga na sinabi ni Kung Pao, pati yung
00:22kapit-bahay nila may opinion, but the end of the day, andali naman kasing intindihin
00:27when you say forthwith, agad-agad.

00:34The impeachment process, the Senate acting as an impeachment court, is a venue for both

00:50So there's no reason para harangin o siraan o gamitin pa sa politika.
00:55Let's follow our constitution at our sentidokumon na pagsinabing forthwith, agad-agad.
