00:00Never again, that's the answer of Vice President Sara Duterte when she was asked if she would get back together with the Marcos.

00:07In her statement to the camera regarding the wrong use of the fund of her employment,

00:12she again mentioned the impeachment as a motive for why she is being investigated.

00:17Breaking news of Ian Cruz.

00:22Please stand up and raise your right hand.

00:24Vice President Sara Duterte was just seated while the resource persons from the Budget Department and the Commission on Audit

00:33for the hearing of the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability.

00:37The vice president was the first to be questioned.

00:40What's in your rules, only the witnesses are voting.

00:44You don't have rules for the resource persons.

00:47Ma'am, that's just a term, but you're also considered as a resource person.

00:58Yes sir, I am a resource person.

01:01You're also a witness and a resource person.

01:04The vice representative, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, defended the vice president.

01:08We cannot just trivialize.

01:11You're also a witness and a resource person.

01:16They are not the same.

01:17The Supreme Court says they are not the same.

01:20And somebody who appears to be the accused has a different tier of protection from a witness.

01:26The point of the Honorable Arroyo is well taken.

01:30But we will proceed to the outtaking.

01:33If the vice president refuses to take her oath, we will respect that.

01:41The hearing was conducted by the Honorable Team Manila Representative, Rolando Valeriano,

01:47who pointed out the wrong use of the OVP fund.

01:51But the vice president said they did not do anything wrong and the fund was not embezzled.

01:56If there are any audit findings, they are ready to answer it in court.

02:02What we are witnessing now is no ordinary legislative inquiry.

02:08This exercise is a well-funded and coordinated political attack.

02:14This much is evident from the very words of the privileged speech that prompted this inquiry.

02:24A speech that simply meant to say, do not vote for Sara on 2028.

02:31It is clear to me that this inquiry is not about misused funds, accountability, or governance.

02:39Instead, it is solely aimed at discrediting my name and my office to prevent future political contests.

02:49What you are trying to do is make a case for impeachment.

02:57I am not a candidate for the upcoming election.

03:02In the last hearing of the House Appropriations Panel,

03:05VP Sara emphasized the importance of spending confidential funds on the OVP in 2022.

03:12The Appropriations Committee also recommended that the OVP budget be increased by more than P1 billion for 2025.

03:20You have the complete freedom to do whatever you wish with the OVP budget.

03:28If you feel that all the documentary submissions are not enough,

03:33then by all means, do not give a budget.

03:36You may try to destroy me.

03:38You can skin me alive and throw my ashes to the wind.

03:44But let it be known, you will find me unbowed.

03:50She approached Chuang Bisih and returned to her seat.

03:53May I request to leave the inquiry?

03:57Ma'am, you may leave considering that you did not vote.

04:02We know that you are doing a lot of things.

04:05The Vice President is excused.

04:10If the Committee on Good Government calls her again,

04:13Bisih will not back down.

04:15If she will return to the hearing,

04:17it all depends on what the Committee will do.

04:21In the ambush interview, Bisih said that the bodies are preparing for impeachment against her.

04:29What they are doing is very obvious.

04:32They are practicing what they will do.

04:36I have no idea about impeachment.

04:38We are just doing our job.

04:41She was not dismissed.

04:42Vice President Duterte responded to the statement of Speaker Martin Romualdez.

04:47We cannot ignore the reality that there are those who seek to undermine our work.

04:54Critics.

04:55Critics who speak of accountability while conveniently ignoring their own misuse of public funds.

05:04To these individuals, I say, let us be clear.

05:09This chamber will not tolerate hypocrisy,

05:12nor will it stand idle in the face of such blatant disregard of public trust.

05:19I am sure of that because you are asking me about his speech.

05:24And I am saying,

05:28what they are doing inside is what he described in his speech.

05:37For now, they have not talked to President Bongbong Marcos yet.

05:42They have not talked to President Bongbong Marcos yet.

05:45They last talked to him when he served as Education Secretary.

05:50No. We did not talk to him.

05:53We are not friends.

05:56We just met because we became running mates.

06:00And asked if there is a chance for him to have a tandem with the Marcos.

06:05Oh, never again.
