10 2 / 2012
One of our most-retweeted Twitter posts about the Corona impeachment trial is a dialogue between the prosecution and PSBank President Pascual Garcia III. Garcia first appeared at court on Wednesday, February 8. He responded to the impeachment court’s subpoena on behalf of PSBank Katipunan branch manager Annabelle Tiongson.
Tiongson has been ordered to attend Monday’s session.
Prosecution: Good afternoon sir.
PSBank Pres: May I consult with my counsel, sir?
Prosecution: I just said “Good afternoon!”

"These are very disturbing times. When you impeach the chief justice, those who are against his policies, maybe unrelated to the ongoing controversy, will also seize the opportunity to rise against him. So that becomes an atmosphere of instability."
