Senate faces uncertainty over impeachment case against Vice President Sara Duterte

rappler.com

Vice President Sara Duterte is facing an impeachment complaint over allegations of fund misuse and other issues. This complaint comes amid rising tensions between her and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., following her departure from his Cabinet in June. While the House may support the impeachment, the Senate's response is uncertain. Currently, at least four senators are expected to back Duterte, with potential support from others, but many senators have expressed reluctance to engage in impeachment proceedings. Senate President Chiz Escudero has advised senators to avoid public comments on the matter, as they may act as judges if the case progresses. Current indications suggest that the impeachment is unlikely to succeed in the Senate.
