      People really hate the Marcos family. When he died (which was in Honolulu, where he was being treated), the government initially didn’t allow his body to be brought to Philippines. It took four years till the next administration before his body was returned.

    Imagining a Star Wars style situation where she gets her apprentice to do the assassing but the apprentice hires a bounty hunter and the bounty hunter hires an assassin and the assassin uses a robot who uses some venomous bugs

    Here’s the source of saying that in GMA news, a Filipino news site and channel:

    https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/topstories/nation/927983/sara-duterte-marcos/story/

    She also “theoretically” threatened to throw president Bongbong’s father’s corpse into the sea

    Why is she doing stuff like this, you ask?

    Cuz Bongbong’s making an China-hawk policy, regarding the West Philippine Sea claims
