00:00Vice President Sara Duterte visited the province of Ifugao.
00:04Amidst the issues she faced, she sent a message of apology to Tina Pangaliban-Perez.
00:14Impeach Sara now!
00:18The violation of the trust of the people or betrayal of public trust
00:24Vice President Sara Duterte was convicted of the second impeachment complaint
00:27filed against Vice President Sara Duterte and endorsed by three congressmen
00:33because of the fraudulent use of Visa in the confidential funds of her office.
00:39She used it for the wrong things in the wrong way.
00:44Vice President Duterte was the first to cover up her fraud
00:49through fake receipts, fake acknowledgment receipts,
00:56and false documents that she submitted to the Commission on Audit.
01:00We focused on the betrayal of public trust because it is all encompassing now.
01:05And that is for us, one of the highest, if not the highest, treachery of a public official.
01:14The second impeachment complaint filed against Vice President Sara Duterte
01:17was formally filed in the House of Representatives.
01:1975 individuals from different sectors filed the complaint.
01:24The impeachment complaint was filed on Monday
01:28and the complaint will be transmitted by the House Secretary General to the Speaker.
01:33We assure the public that this process will be conducted with integrity,
01:40guided by the principles of due process,
01:43and adherence to the Constitution.
01:47We call on all parties involved to respect the legal proceedings
01:53and allow the constitutionally prescribed process to take its course.
02:00Malacanang first denied that they had nothing to do with any impeachment complaint filed against Vice President Duterte.
02:08But how about the complainants and endorsers of the second complaint?
02:12This impeachment complaint is a challenge to Congress
02:15to show its independence,
02:17to show that it can stand on the side of the people
02:20even though the President is saying and calling for other things.
02:24We are a separation of powers,
02:26the Congress should stand up for the right position in this matter.
02:35In the history of the Philippines,
02:37four government officials were impeached.
02:39Joseph Ejercito Estrada was the first impeached President of the country.
02:45But the impeachment trial in the Senate was not completed
02:49because of the violation of People Power II.
02:51The first magistrate impeached was Chief Justice Renato Corona.
02:56The Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez was also impeached
03:00and the Commilec Chair Andres Bautista.
03:03There is no statement yet about one of the impeachment complaints filed against him,
03:07VP Sara.
03:08But in his visit to Ifugao as part of the anniversary of the OVP,
03:13he gave a message about forgiveness.
03:17Christmas is a time of forgiveness, love, and giving.
03:24I always say that it is good for people.
03:30But because I am the Vice President,
03:32I need to tell you that this is the message of Christmas.
03:39But I will not forgive.
03:43The Vice President did not give a direct statement, but he said,
03:46It's up to you.
03:48If you will forgive,
03:50because people are different.
03:52Some of us forgive quickly,
03:55some of us take a long time,
03:58and some of us really put their lives on the line.
04:01The three SABPINA members facing the NBI
04:05regarding the investigation in the statement of Vice President Duterte
04:09against the President, First Lady, and House Speaker.
04:12They are the witnesses, including those who asked in the Zoom meeting of the Vice President.
04:17This is the first news.
