Tough talking Philippines president has declared war on police corruption. Business Insider reports:
Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte on Tuesday summoned about 100 police officers accused of various crimes to his palace, lined them up in front of reporters, and threatened to kill them, the Philippines-based news site Rappler reported.
“You are useless to me,” he said in front of the cameras on the driveway of the Malacañang Palace, according to the report. “You are a scourge to society.”
He added: “If you keep doing that, son of a b—-, I’ll really kill you.”
Watch Duterte deliver those warnings in a mixture of Tagalog and English in the video below. It’s not clear whether the people standing behind him are the cops.

Is this the real deal or just a bluff?
President Duterte isn’t bluffing. Corrupt police or politicians and that goes for media as well is indeed a scourge upon any nation or people. Life is tough enough without self serving leaches grinding people’s faces in it.
I think they should line up the media in the same fashion and show them off to the country, the editors, the “reporters”, anyone that has anything to do with fake news, line them up in front of America and tell what they have all lied about, then get out all the congressmen and line the ones up that have broken the law and lied to the American people. Call these people out for what they are!
The problem with doing that in the US is that the media, would turn it into a fiasco, like they have done for years. These small countries in the far east, can get by with doing something like that because their media, doesn’t work against their president. How wonderful it would be in this country, if the media would back the president, instead of working against him, imagine how much good work could be done. It would be like the 50’s and 60’s humming along at warp speed. It at least is a wonderful dream, now only if we could make it a reality. Guess what we can vote for conservatives instead of liberals and the country will hum again.
How about if the media would just report the FACTS !
One can only dream!!!
Get off the corrupted to the core NAZI Demoncrat Communist plantation treasonous party (RINOs too!!! You know who you are!, So Get ready to lose your seats) and on the Trump train to success!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The United States Supreme Court should do the same. Line-up Hillary and Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Chuck Schumer, James Comey, President Obama and the entire staffs of CNN and MSNBC insult them in front of the nation then throw them all in prison.
that is for sure
Charge them with TREASON!!
And execute the penalty accordingly!
Good idea.
Duterte is crazy. He’ll kill them.
Just maybe what President Trump is doing will catch on around the world to other civilized countries. It truly is past time for the good guys to win and the graft, corruption, lies, and bad guys go to jail.
i hope they got the message, that guy is for real
Sounds like they have a President with some balls.
Kind of like what we finally go in the US.. not a politician, but someone who sees a problem and says.. HOW do we FIX this..
