PM Accuses Opposition Leader of Grabbing at Straws

The political back-and-forth is heating up. Since news broke of Jose Mai’s resignation from Cabinet, Opposition Leader Tracy Taegar-Panton has been on the offensive.

Today, we put the question directly to John Briceño.

“Does this look crumbling? Right? Yeah, it’s funny, I sometime, I kind of feel bad for, for, for the leader of the position and kind of commiserate with her sometimes because, you know, when we were in a position, you know, trying to find anything that we can grab onto to create. An issue or to create as an issue of instability or, or whatever it is. I wish her well, I wish her well, but it’s nonsense. There’s nothing more I can answer to that.”
