#CjCorona is great no doubt, but being an appointee of CGMA is a nightmare for him !

Ang tindi ni Chief Justice Corona to be sitting in the senate - listening to Tupas insults, accusations.

How dare they say that the people want CJ Corona impeached. This is another attempt of the prosecution to try the Chief Justice publicly.

Cj Corona said only death will make him give up....Most of us just want a fair & independent Supreme Court, so please just resign. #CJCorona

So far, what I see on twitter is more people support CJ Corona. I am one of them too.

For me, ousting the Chief Justice is just fine if it has undergone due process. The trial was approved by the congress in a flash. Mas mabilis pa sa alas quatro ika nga. And this trial is initiated by the President. Old Ombudsman gone and new one appointed by him. Let's see if PNoy will succeed in his attempt to appoint his own chief justice.
