Summary
The Philippine Senate has launched a high-stakes impeachment trial against Vice President Sara Duterte, pitting her against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in a bitter political showdown. Accused of unexplained wealth, misuse of funds, and even threatening the president’s life, Duterte faces potential lifetime bans from public office — a major blow to her presidential ambitions. Once political allies, the Duterte and Marcos families are now locked in a bitter feud, fueled by Rodrigo Duterte’s ongoing ICC arrest over his drug war. With impeachment backed by Marcos-aligned lawmakers, the trial hinges on a 16-vote supermajority in the Senate — while key Duterte supporters face arrest or flee amid corruption probes and ICC warrants, the drama deepens into a national reckoning.
