Former president Rodrigo Duterte accuses President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. of being a drug user, while Marcos accuses Duterte of being addicted to fentanyl. Mayor Sebastian 'Baste' Duterte calls for Marcos' resignation. House Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez and Sen. Maria Imelda Josefa 'Imee' Marcos openly quarrel.

The word war between the Duterte and the Marcos -Romualdez camps has now turned into a ' drug war .' Former president Rodrigo Duterte has publicly accused President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. of being a drug user and claimed that the latter was included in the drug watch list which the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) showed him when he was still mayor of Davao, a claim which PDEA has denied.

Maria Imelda Josefa 'Imee' Marcos, who is seen by Marcos loyalists as having abandoned her brother, are openly quarreling and adding to the noise around the already muddled issue of constitutional change
