00:00President Bongbong Marcos is not in favor of the impeachment against Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:07He said that this is just a matter of time.
00:10But some congressmen said that they are ready for the impeachment complaint
00:14because Duterte needs to answer to his issue of confidential funds.
00:19Chino Gaston has a report.
00:22Such criminal acts should not be tolerated.
00:29That is my statement.
00:32This Monday, President Bongbong Marcos made a bold statement
00:36regarding Vice President Sara Duterte's interference in his life.
00:40But despite the issues being raised in his office,
00:43the President said that he is not in favor of the impeachment complaint against Duterte.
00:49This does not make any difference to even one single Filipino life.
00:54So why waste time on this?
00:56The President said that after he leaked his text message
01:00to the leaders of the Congress.
01:03The President confirmed that the message is true
01:05where he said that if everything is just a matter of time,
01:09VP Sara is not important.
01:12Yes, because that's really my opinion.
01:15What will happen if somebody files an impeachment?
01:18It will tie down the House. It will tie down the Senate.
01:21It will just take up all the time.
01:23And for what? For nothing.
01:26None of this will help improve a single Filipino life.
01:31As far as I'm concerned, it's a storm in a teacup.
01:35And as for Duterte, their relationship has reached the point of no return.
01:40As for the President...
01:41Never say never.
01:44For the Black people in Congress,
01:46weak leadership or weak leadership is what the President said.
01:51They are ready for impeachment
01:53because the Vice President needs to answer the confidential funds
01:58and other anomalies in the OVP and DepEd.
02:01Malacanang should not dictate how the Congress will do its mandate
02:06to answer the trusted officials.
02:09Malacanang has no comment on what Makabayan Black said.
02:13As for some leaders of the Camera,
02:16impeachment proceedings are not on their agenda.
02:19When the President went to Cap. Gen. Guillermo Nacar,
02:22part of his message to the soldiers was...
02:25Don't be distracted by what's happening.
02:28Let's stay focused.
02:30If we are distracted, I'll tell you what to do.
02:33That's easy. That's easy to answer.
02:35What's my mission? That's what I'm still learning.
02:38Followed by the questioning of former President Rodrigo Duterte
02:42on the continued support of the military to Marcos.
