Ping Lacson on Imee’s allegations vs Bongbong: ‘Very un-Filipino’
Senator Panfilo Lacson criticized Senator Imee Marcos for publicly accusing her brother, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., of drug use during a large anti-corruption rally.
Lacson expressed his disappointment, stating that such accusations, whether true or not, should not have been made in front of a massive crowd during a religious gathering.
He described Senator Marcos' actions as "very un-Filipino," emphasizing that family disputes are traditionally resolved within the home, not in public gatherings.
Lacson suggested that Imee's accusation was politically motivated, given their divergence in the recent presidential slate.
Palace Press Officer Claire Castro also denounced the elder Marcos' statement as a "desperate move" via her personal vlog.
