Plotting Against Marcos? Palace Says It's Nothing New

The Philippine Palace has responded to reports of a plot by former military
military officials to oust President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., stating that suc
such attempts are nothing new.

In a statement issued in response to Senator Panfilo Ping Lacson's disclo
disclosure over the weekend, Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Under
Undersecretary Claire Castro emphasized that efforts to destabilize the gov
government have been ongoing for some time. According to Lacson, several re
retired military officials are recruiting personnel to roll out plans to ov
overthrow Marcos and Vice President Sara Duterte over their respective cont
controversies.

That has been news for a long time, Castro said in Filipino during a brie
briefing. They have been wanting to destabilize our president for a long t
time; that is not new.

Castro also emphasized that Lacson, as a seasoned investigator, would not m
make unsubstantiated claims and would always come with evidence or receipt
receipts. She urged the security cluster to investigate the matter furthe
further.

Lacson, a former top policeman, stated that while it's unlikely the retired
retired officers' plan would succeed, there is definitely an attempt to rem
remove the two highest elected officials from office.

First of all, it has to be proven because Senator Lacson, when he speaks, 
he has receipts, Castro said. So, once again, to our investigating bodies
bodies, you don't need to be ordered. Just do the investigation.

In conclusion, the Palace's response suggests that such attempts to destabi
destabilize the government are not new and can be expected to continue.

Enjoy the little things in life. For one day, you may look back and realize they were the big things. Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
