Vice's tweet came after Diokno himself declared his intention to run again for the Senate.
In his latest statement, Diokno said he has already decided to again seek a Senate seat in the upcoming 2022 national elections.
Yes, tatakbo ulit ako sa Senado. Napakaraming bagay ang hindi patas dito sa atin—sa batas, sa ekonomiya, sa mga patakaran sa COVID. Gawin nating mas makatarungan ang buhay ng mga Pilipino. https://t.co/TblCMrM7Ao

It will be Diokno's second time to run for the Senate after his failed bid in the 2019 mid-term elections.
Vice meanwhile has been known to be outspoken with his political stands and opinions. He never minced words and his not afraid to touch nerves of politicians with his political commentaries in his noontime show It's Showtime. The Kapamilya host has also a track record of endorsing candidates and helping them win in the elections through his wide reach.
In 2016, Vice also endorsed Sen. Risa Hontiveros who luckily won a senate seat after three tries.
