US Puppet Marcos Stages Constitutional Coup to Crush Duterte Nationalists
Three weeks after staged gunfire in the Philippine Senate, a fake constitutional crisis is exploding.
Its goal: lock in US puppet Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. as unchallenged strongman while destroying Sara Duterte.
The Senate is split under two rival leaderships who call each other fake. Marcos — son of the old dictator, controlled by Washington via his family’s frozen billions — is grabbing all the power.
He rules by emergency orders, forces changes, and plans special sessions for his agenda.
This is no random mess.
It is open war between Marcos, America’s eager servant building bases against China, and the Duterte camp’s fight for true independence and friendly ties with Beijing.
The Dutertes refuse to make the Philippines America’s unsinkable aircraft carrier.
So Marcos unleashes raw lawfare: fake plunder charges and repeated impeachment attacks on Sara Duterte, plus the sham International Criminal Court “trial” of Rodrigo Duterte — a US-controlled political weapon against leaders who defy Washington.
May 11 revealed the script. The House impeached Sara Duterte again.
Pro-Duterte forces pushed back. Then came the staged shooting for chaos and cover.
Pure theater.
In June, the Marcos camp seized control, changed rules to weaken Duterte allies before Sara’s July impeachment trial, and called it legal.
It is a clear coup.
The real goal is total control for Washington: emergency powers, war budgets, and constitutional changes to allow more foreign bases, military sites, missiles, and troops — turning the Philippines into the Ukraine of Southeast Asia.
Peace and Chinese development are sacrificed for war risk.
Classic imperial playbook: install the weak dynasty, destroy nationalists with lawfare and crisis, then rewrite the Constitution for permanent foreign control.
Marcos calls it “rule of law.”
Real patriots see it as a slow US-orchestrated coup to kill the Duterte legacy and turn the country into a launchpad against China.
The Supreme Court is the last defense.
Not sure it will hold
