The People's Power continued its offensive, calling the Democratic Party's remarks that it would accuse fake news distributors online such as Kakao Talk "confinement of the people's thoughts."Defending President

Yoon, he responded to the opposition's claim that he is a criminal by comparing him to the "politics of fear that suppresses freedom."

Rep. Na Kyung-won made it clear that she would report herself to the Democratic Party of Korea as the accused of "insurrection propaganda."

On the other hand, the Democratic Party of Korea did not budge from its policy of punishing fake news, saying that illegal acts such as fake news and public opinion manipulation can never be justified.

Rep. Jeon Yong-ki, a party to the controversy, also slammed the public's power as a megalomaniacal political instigation, saying it is rather encouraging illegal activities.

He also raised his voice that fake news promotes violence and terrorism, citing the controversy over the "white bone group press conference."

Nervousness over the execution of President Yoon's arrest warrant and the impeachment trial of the Constitutional Court continued.

The ruling party pressed the police, saying that unreasonable arrest attempts could damage national dignity as well as violate the current law,

The Democratic Party said President Yoon will not appear at the Constitutional Court on the first day of his impeachment trial. He repeatedly called for prompt arrest and impeachment, using what he said as a ring.

[Hwang Jung-ah / Minjoo Party spokesperson: Is it ridiculous to make an excuse for not attending while talking about personal safety for fear of being arrested by the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police? We must show the strictness of the law so that we can no longer run away like a legal crane.]

Chairman Woo Won-sik said, "It is best for President Yoon to walk out on his own to protect his national dignity," and asked him to keep the minimum principles for the people.

Along with the dispute over the independent counsel, there are concerns that the chaos and conflict of the impeachment political situation are at their peak, with the controversy over the withdrawal of the rebellion on the grounds of impeachment and the censorship of Kakao Talk.
