Ang Tinuod nga Ugat sa Kasamok— Ambisyon, Korapsyon, Ug Traidor nga Kaalyado

All roads lead to one name. Behind the betrayal, behind the chaos, behind the slow and calculated dismantling of the Duterte legacy — lies the towering ambition of one man: Speaker Martin Romualdez.

Let’s stop pretending this is just about policy disagreements or party realignments.

Ang tinuod nga rason nganong nagkaguliyang ang politika karon, nganong gipasakitan si former President Rodrigo Duterte, ug nganong ginapakaulawan si Vice President Sara Duterte — is because Romualdez wants to be President.

And he will destroy anyone who gets in his way.

From the start of the Marcos Jr. administration, klaro na ang lihok: padaganon si Romualdez as the next President, bisan pa og maguba ang tibuok Pilipinas. But to do that, he had to eliminate the strongest political brand in the country — Duterte.

And so, naay coordinated moves: ICC pressure. Budget slashing. Political isolation. Disinformation. Sara was cut off. Duterte was dragged through the mud.

And all this while Romualdez and his loyalists in Congress quietly enriched themselves.

Let’s be honest: corruption in Congress enabled this entire mess. While the country was still reeling from the pandemic, they were busy increasing pork barrel, approving confidential funds for pet agencies, and scheming behind closed doors.

Para asa? Para sa eleksyon. Para sa pondo sa presidential campaign ni Romualdez. Di lang ni pang-politika. This is treachery.

They used the Marcos name, they hijacked the UniTeam brand, and now they want to rewrite history by erasing everything the Duterte administration stood for: discipline, sovereignty, and fearless leadership.

Ang mga politiko nga nagsunod ni Romualdez karon, wala nagserbisyo sa katawhan — nagserbisyo sila sa plano nga magpabilin sa gahum ang ilang kampo hangtod 2034.

So this May 2025 elections, let’s be clear:

A vote for anyone associated with Speaker Romualdez is a vote against Duterte.
It’s a vote against Vice President Sara.
It’s a vote for betrayal, ambition, and the return of traditional trapo politics.

Kung gusto nato nga maprotektahan ang baruganan ni Digong, kung gusto nato nga ipaglaban ang tinuod nga serbisyo, kung gusto nato nga mohunong ang pag-abuso sa pondo ug gahum — ayaw og botar og mga tuta ni Romualdez.

The fight is no longer just between candidates. It’s a fight for the soul of the nation.
