Hiniling ni Rep. Drixie Cardema sa pagdinig ng House Quad Committee na magkaroon ng patas na proseso at isama ang mga biktima ng mga durugista sa pagdinig.
Nagbigay din ng pahayag si Cardema tungkol sa mga kongresistang umano'y ikinabit niya sa grupong NPA.
Bilang tugon, sinabi ni Rep. Romeo Acop, “Kung gusto niya magpa-imbestiga, mag-file siya ng resolution… I beg to disagree na sila lang ang nakikipag-laban at marunong makipaglaban sa kalaban.”
Dagdag pa ni Rep. Robert Ace Barbers, “Mag-attend kayo ng hearing, hindi yung a-attend kayo kapag nandito lang ang dating pangulo at ating bise presidente… this Quad Comm makes announcements of all its hearings.”

00:00We were elected by a few thousand Filipinos.
00:07But with us today is President Duterte, the most voted Philippine leader of 2016.
00:16And his son, Vice President Sara Duterte, the most voted Philippine leader of 2022.
00:25I would like to manifest that the Filipino people want to punish the criminals, drug addicts, and NPA terrorists.
00:36That is why they were elected and continue to be loved by the Filipinos.
00:41That is why we want a fair hearing.
00:45I hope we include the thousands of parents whose children were victimized by drug addicts.
00:54The ordinary Filipinos who walk from work and were stabbed or killed by drug addicts.
01:02All the women, even infant women, were raped by drug addicts.
01:09Thousands of their parents and loved ones who are not here today.
01:16The Filipinos feel sorry for the innocent families that were raped by President Duterte.
01:25President Duterte's drug war was just a policy.
01:31It would not have been implemented if it was not led by the 6-year-old Congress.
01:37The majority of the people here were on the Duterte Feast for 6 years.
01:45The Duterte Youth Party List continues to support President Rodrigo Duterte and Second President Sara Duterte
01:55who served the drug addicts, criminals, and NPA terrorists to protect the millions of Filipinos.
02:06Why is no one investigating this?
02:09Or why are we being invited by so many Filipinos who were victimized by drug addicts?
02:15And lastly, to the Congressmen who are allies of the NPAs,
02:22we are embarrassed on the topic of killing.
02:26Because you are not talking about the killing of NPAs to the police, soldiers, and Filipinos.
02:34Also, to the remaining resource persons who want to become lawyers for the ICC,
02:41to Atty. Maria Cristina Conti, who is now a candidate for the Bayan Muna Party List.
02:47Also, to your neighbor, Nery Colmenares of Bayan Muna.
02:53The NPA recruits youths to overthrow the government
03:00and kill the police, soldiers, and troops of the government.
03:05You are not condemning their killing.
03:08What you are condemning now are the two most trusted leaders of the country
03:14who, with all their efforts, protect the millions of Filipinos.
03:20In support of the advocacy of President Duterte,
03:24the Duterte Youth Party List, this Congress,
03:28is one by one evaluating the return of the death penalty
03:32for rapists, kidnappers, drug addicts, and terrorists.
03:39In behalf of the Duterte Youth Party List,
03:43we are grateful for the full support of President Duterte and VP Sara Duterte
03:50to the troops of the government and to your persecution of criminals,
03:55rapists, and NPA terrorists.
03:58That's all. Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
04:01Thank you, Congresswoman.
04:03Thank you, Mr. Chair.
04:05You are not allowed to clap here. If you want to clap, do it outside.
04:08May I?
04:10Mr. Chair.
04:11There is no violence here.
04:13Okay, Congressman Acop, you're recognized.
04:16Thank you, Mr. Chair. I beg to disagree with my colleague.
04:19Because he is still young.
04:21I have given up my life for this country.
04:25The former president is only two years older than I am.
04:29But I have been fighting for this country.
04:33I was a member of the Philippine Constabulary
04:36and became a policeman after Republic Act 6975 was enacted.
04:43This statement of my colleague betrays her ignorance.
04:47If she wants to investigate, she should file a resolution
04:51and maybe refer to the appropriate committee to be fair with her.
04:57She is a congressman. She knows the rules.
05:01However, your statement or your statements betray your ignorance
05:07of our rules here in this House of Congress.
05:12So I beg to disagree, Mr. Chair,
05:14that they are the only ones who know how to fight the enemy.
05:20As I've said before, I have given the most part or most years of my life
05:27fighting the enemy of this country.
05:30Thank you, Mr. Chair.
05:31Thank you, Congressman Acop.
05:33Yes, let me emphasize that there is no monopoly of love for the people here.
05:38We are all equal here.
05:40And following the suggestion of Congressman Acop,
05:45if you want to invite someone, attend a hearing.
05:50You won't be able to attend if our former president is here.
05:56Come and attend.
05:57This committee hearing, this quadcom makes announcements of all its hearings.
06:03And from here on, we want to expect and we want to see you in our hearing.
06:08And please submit to the committee secretary all the persons you want to be invited.
06:14If you want to invite someone, that's fine.
06:19I just want to clarify that there is no monopoly of love for the people here.
06:26It's not you, it's not us.
06:28We are all equal in loving the people.
06:30We are all equal in serving.
06:32Don't say you are better.
06:35We won't say we are better.
06:38But if you love the people, we are all equal.
06:42Don't say that because Congressman Dan Fernandez will be angry.
