The Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) will file a second impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte, citing “betrayal of public trust” linked to the use of ₱612 million in confidential funds from 2022-2023. The complaint, signed by 50 representatives, will be endorsed by opposition lawmakers. Malacañang has denied involvement, with President Marcos advising against impeachment to avoid distracting Congress. Senate President Escudero urged impartiality, reminding senators to refrain from commenting to maintain the integrity of the process. The Senate requires a two-thirds majority to convict and remove Duterte.
