00:00Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
00:04On the last day of the session, Vice President Sara Duterte was impeached by the Camera.
00:11She is the first vice president to be impeached in the history of the country.
00:16More than 200 lawmakers advocated for the impeachment of the vice president
00:20because of the violation of the Constitution,
00:22defamation of the trust of the country, trust and other crimes.
00:26Tina Pangaliban Perez was tuned live.
00:29Tina.
00:33Mel Emil was the first time a vice president of the country was impeached by the Camera.
00:44215 congressmen endorsed the fourth impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:52More than 102 or one-third of all the members of the Camera
00:57so that it will not be rectified here in the Camera.
01:00Following the rules on impeachment of the Camera,
01:03the House Secretary General immediately brought the articles of impeachment to the Senate,
01:08which is the Senate Impeachment Court.
01:10Considering that the Secretary General has certified that at least 215 members
01:19of the House of Representatives have verified and swore before him
01:25this said impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Zimmerman Duterte
01:32and consistent with our rules,
01:35I move that the Secretary General be directed immediately to endorse the same to the Senate.
01:44There is a motion to direct the Secretary General to immediately endorse to the Senate
01:50the impeachment complaint.
01:52Having been filed by more than one-third of the membership of the House
01:56or a total of 215 members, is there any objection?
02:01The chair hears none.
02:03The motion is approved.
02:05The Secretary General is so directed.
02:08The session is suspended.
02:14Thank you very much.
02:44The worst-case scenario that we see is...
03:14Peace and net worth.
03:15This includes more than 2 billion transactions from 2006 to 2015
03:21in some of the joint accounts of former President Rodrigo Duterte
03:26when he was a local official of Davao City.
03:29In addition to the complaint,
03:31he was also involved in extrajudicial killings
03:34and he repeatedly attacked the Marcos administration
03:39including his involvement in a rally that was called upon by the President to step down.
03:45According to the impeachment complaint,
03:47it was shown by those who moved,
03:49and said by Vice President,
03:51the violation of the trust of the people and abuse of power
03:56that proves that he is not qualified to serve the government.
04:00The three impeachment complaints filed in December
04:03against Vice President Sara Duterte
04:06will not be transmitted to the Senate.
04:08But only to the archives of the Camera.
04:11Although Vice President Duterte has already been impeached,
04:14he will not be removed from his post
04:16because the Senate Impeachment Court needs to proceed with the litigation.
04:21Once it's approved, it will be transmitted to the Senate.
04:25Sir, that means Vice President Duterte has already been impeached.
04:29Yeah, yeah. Well, the word is impeached.
04:32But of course, she has to be tried by the Senate.
04:36So even if she's impeached and not yet convicted by the Senate,
04:41she is still the Vice President.
04:51On the list of signatures,
04:53the names of Presidential Son and Ilocos Norte,
04:57Representative Sandro Marcos,
04:59none of those who were involved in the impeachment.
05:02Former President Gloria Arroyo,
05:04who is now the President of Pampanga.
05:07Emil?
05:08Thank you very much, Tina Panganiban Perez.
05:12The GMA Integrated News is working hard
05:14to get Vice President Sara Duterte's signature
05:17in the impeachment of the Camera,
05:20but she still has no answer.
05:22But Duterte said in December
05:25that it's good that the impeachment complaints were filed
05:30so that she can answer the accusations against her.
05:33Rep. Paulo Duterte called her
05:36desperate and politically motivated
05:39to hasten the impeachment of his brother.
05:43Political persecution,
05:45the manipulation of some lawmakers
05:48to get signatures
05:50and quickly get rid of the baseless impeachment case.
05:54GMA Integrated News is also working hard
05:57to get the signature of former President Rodrigo Duterte,
06:01who was the first to say that his legal counsel
06:04is his son, VP Sara.
