Our constitution grants the power to try an impeachment complaint only to the senate. Does our constitution also states that they are supreme over all other institutions in the country?

he's right, from what I understand and from this simple mind I have, it is Senate that is co equal with the two branches, which yun ang sabi niya but while sitting as an impeachment court they are not Senate/Senators anymore, the reason why they took another oath..

and it just common sense, Senate as an impeachment court is above and supreme over the two branches since if it;s not, then they can't hear or even try the head of the other branches..

another common sense, if they are not supreme and above the two branches, then bakit pag nag decide sila ng guilty talsik either ang President ng Republic or Chief justice ng supreme court... they can't do that if they are still co equal with them...

di ko masisi na umaray ang FASAP at yung union nila.. sayang eh.. pera na naging bato pa... nakapag tataka din naman na sulat lang ay binawi na yung decision... na mukhang flawed nga dahil ibang division ang nag decide sa kaso ng ibang decision... nasa prosecutors now kung pano ipagkabit yung confusion na pano naging ibang division ang nag rule sa kaso ng ibang division at kung ano ang involvement ni corona dun...

pero.. as of yet.. i don't remember na naglabas na Supreme Court ng ruling after binawi yung ruling na yun upon letter from Atty Mendoza... meron na nga ba?

however, the law isn't just about common sense.

your interpretation of it is subject to grave abuse by the senators which we all all know are capable of that. if that happens, who will balance their power.

IMO, the constitution only granted them the right to try an impeachable official and make their own trial rules which in itself is considered a form of power over the executive and judiciary. but I am not sure if there is a provision that allows them to break some existing laws. good example dito yung PSBank president. so cgurado na bang makukulong siya kasi whatever step na gawin niya, subject to liability siya.

Kung walang tinatago si Chief Justice, sana iauthorize na lang niya mga bangko na pwede open lahat ng dollar accounts niya, para hindi na nahihirapan at naiipit ang mga bank officials at hindi magkaroon ng crisis ang 2 co equal branch...
