The 'Judas' Within: Who Betrayed Duterte? why Girlfriend went free and Papa is Jailed?

 

One Swift Save, with Force and Might, The Other's Loss, Shrouded in Night.

It's been half a month since FPRRD was detained. And like many of you, I'm grappling with the sheer improbability of it all. It's almost inconceivable that such an arrest could happen so swiftly.

Friends, I find myself pondering the whispers, the rumors: who delivered the 'kiss of Judas' to Rodrigo Duterte? Who betrayed Digong? We can't definitively point fingers, but my mind keeps returning to a troubling question: how?

What truly confounds me is the stark contrast between Sara Duterte's actions regarding Zuleika Lopez and her apparent inaction in her father's case. It's no secret how fiercely she intervened on behalf of her former chief of staff. Remember the dramatic rescue from Congress? Imagine, she bypassed protocols, stormed the House of Representatives, surrounded by her bodyguards.

We witnessed Sara Duterte blatantly disregard process and protocol. She even confronted police officers at the Veterans and St. Luke's hospitals, effectively wresting Zuleika Lopez from their custody. She moved heaven and earth to secure Zuleika's freedom.

Yet, here's the crux of my bewilderment: her own father, Rodrigo Duterte, was within reach, just outside the Villamor Airbase. She, who so effortlessly bypassed security at the House and overwhelmed law enforcement at the hospitals, remained passive.

There's a missing piece to this puzzle. Social media and whispers suggest finger-pointing towards Bong Go, fueled by Baste's public grievances. But I ask: how could Sara, who moved mountains for Zuleika, not do the same for her father?

Rodrigo Duterte placed immense trust in his daughter. He repeatedly stated, 'Wait for Sara, she will come.' And echoed this sentiment to Gen. Torre. Sara was nearby. Why the stark difference in response? Bong Go lacks the direct, forceful intervention Sara demonstrated for Zuleika.

This leads me to a disturbing thought. Could there be a fracture within the Duterte family? Sara herself acknowledged in the past that there were 'issues.' Family feuds are not uncommon in politics.

Is it possible this was a calculated move? A deliberate humiliation of her father and his other family, Kitty and Honeylet? A message?: 'You are powerless.' Perhaps Rodrigo Duterte became too difficult to control, and Sara decided to take matters into her own hands.

These are mere speculations, I admit. We lack concrete evidence. But the contrast is undeniable. Sara's all-out rescue of Zuleika is a matter of public record. Her apparent short of action in her father's case is equally evident.

Could it be that Sara knew her father was walking into a trap? Was this a calculated move to eliminate perceived rivals, including her half-sister and stepmother?

Why the 30-word tirade against Bong Go? Could it be that Bong Go and Honeylet are aligned with Rodrigo Duterte, while Sara is carving her own faction, perhaps with Imee? is Pulong and Baste another faction?

These are the questions swirling in my mind. The undeniable fact remains: Sara Duterte fought tooth and nail for Zuleika Lopez. Why not for her own father?

And then, there's Mon Tulfo's public allegation, a question really, that Sara Duterte is a 'T-Bird' and that she and Zuleika were publicly known together. Could this, however shocking, be a piece of this complex puzzle? I am not stating this as fact, but it is a question that has been raised and must be considered.
