Summary
Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte is locked in a high-stakes impeachment trial after being charged with threatening the president — a move she calls political persecution. Facing the Senate impeachment court, she’s vowed to be “bloodied but unbowed,” as evidence including video clips surfaces to back the allegations. The rift began after her ouster from the House in May, and her supporters see this as a bid to derail her 2028 presidential run. Meanwhile, her allies are crumbling — three senators backing her are now under arrest or on the run, with one facing ICC charges tied to his father’s past. With 16 of 24 Senate votes needed for conviction, the trial could either end her political future or set the stage for future criminal charges.
