Duterte: No need to explain order to retain Marcos
"As head of government and chief executive, the police is under me so the PNP chief is under my supervision and control. I do not have to explain to you why I made the order for him to sit down," said Duterte.
"Sabi ko, 'ilagay mo siya diyan' (I said, 'keep him there'). My purpose? Huwag ka na magtanong (Don't ask). Protocol? You are all government employees. There is no such thing as protocol when there is absolute control and supervision. I can amend or revoke in this executive department," he said.
So he is now above the law? But, that’s what I would also say when I don’t have an explanation on why I did it. Just plain bullshit.
He shuts up when he should actually talk. Dictatorship in the making. Maybe he will not announce Martial Law but he’s just going to do it in his own way para may excuse pa rin siya at and dutertetards.
