And this, of course, is what happened to the justices of the Supreme Court who have reportedly decided to vote for the ouster of their own Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno in an absurd quo warranto proceeding, after DU30 declared that Sereno is his enemy and he wants her out of the court.
Under the Constitution, to which every justice owes his or her office, no impeachable official like Sereno may be removed except by death, permanent disability, resignation, or impeachment for, and conviction of culpable violation of the Constitution, treason, bribery, graft and corruption, other high crimes or betrayal of public trust, with the concurrence of no less than two-thirds of all the members of the Senate.
But DU30 has barked out his order, and the justices would not risk provoking the anger of this particular god. Better kill the Constitution and the highest court than defy his wishes.
