ABOGADO: Congress' Independence: Necessary Check or a Point of Constitutional Tension?

August 7, 2025 Episode #ABOGADO with Atty. Karen Jimeno and Atty. Mike Toledo – where legal minds meet, tough questions get real answers, and perspectives are challenged. No filters, no compromises—just the law, the issues, and the truth. The legal showdown begins — only on BNC. What does the Senate’s move to archive VP Sara Duterte’s impeachment case mean for constitutional checks and balances? Joining us on ABOGADO is Atty. Tranquil Salvador III — senior partner at Romulo Mabanta Law, respected law professor, and former defense counsel in the impeachment trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona. With his deep legal insight and experience in high-stakes litigation, Atty. Salvador breaks down the implications of the Supreme Court ruling, the Senate's decision, and the broader impact on institutional independence. 🕥 8:30 p.m., Thursday 📺 Free TV Ch. 31, Cignal Ch. 24, Converge Ch. 74, SkyCable Ch. 33, Samsung TV Plus, TCL Smart TVs 📱 Cignal Play, BNC YouTube and Facebook Visit our website: https://bnc.ph Check out our official social media accounts:   / bncphl     / bncdotph     / bnc.ph     / bnc.ph      / @bncphl   #bilyonaryonewschannel #bnc #abogado Warning: Unauthorized use of any BNC videos without proper approval will lead to legal action to the fullest extent of the law.
