Now they're hijacking Ninoy's martyr legacy

Whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad. VP Sara Duterte needled the AFP Thursday for not stopping the PNP from arresting her father, ex-president Rody Duterte.

She sounded totally out of it. Why should the AFP prevent the PNP from enforcing an Interpol arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court? As Defense Sec. Gilberto Teodoro clarified, the AFP was in fact tasked to support the PNP action.

At a pro-Duterte rally in The Hague, Sara opined why President Bongbong Marcos should resign: "Hindi mo pinapakita sa taumbayan na maayos kang mag-isip at kaya mo mamuno."

Only last Oct. 18 Sara live-streamed on her Facebook page how she would behead BBM. Scowling into the camera, she held an imaginary head which she knifed on the neck.

She then said she'll dig up BBM's father Marcos Sr.'s remains at the Libingan ng mga Bayani and hurl it into the sea.

She did it again Nov. 23 on nationwide live stream. She threatened to assassinate BBM, First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos and Speaker Martin Romualdez. "No joke, no joke," she assured viewers of her sanity.

Sara proclaimed it her duty as VP to be at The Hague to get a distressed Filipino (Papa Rody) released from jail.

Yet on July 24, as a super typhoon battered millions of Filipinos, she and family flew to Germany for a Taylor Swift concert.

Sara accused Malacañang of succumbing to foreign interest — the ICC.

Yet she was silent when her father let Chinese Maritime Militia trawlers poach Philippine seas, ram Filipino fishing and coast guard boats and blockade Sandy Cay.
