Philippine House of Representatives votes to impeach Vice President Sara Duterte
The Philippine House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly on Monday to impeach Vice President Sara Duterte on charges including alleged unexplained wealth, misuse of public funds, and threats against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. The impeachment, which moves to the Senate for trial, marks the second impeachment attempt against Duterte, whose conviction would disqualify her from the 2028 presidential election. The vote occurred amid broader political turmoil between the Duterte and Marcos camps, including a concurrent leadership change in the Senate.
