VP Sara, kalmado kahit anuman ang resulta ng impeachment trial

Vice President Sara Duterte stands firm and calm amid the looming storm of her impeachment trial. Set to begin tentatively on July 30, Duterte declared on Friday that she is “at peace” with whatever verdict comes her way.

Speaking at a campaign event for local candidates in Zamboanga City, she dismissed any personal agenda behind the proceedings. “I won’t entertain talks about my impeachment because some might think this is about my own interests. Just leave the impeachment to me. I am at peace—with the outcome, whether acquitted or found guilty. I have accepted both possibilities,” she told reporters.

The saga began on February 5, when 215 members of the House of Representatives backed a verified complaint that led to her impeachment. Although the Articles of Impeachment were swiftly delivered to the Senate that same day, Senate President Francis “Chiz” Escudero chose not to address the case immediately and adjourned the sessions.

Critics called for swift action, but Escudero insisted the trial could not proceed while Congress is on recess. If his timetable holds, the Articles will be formally presented on June 2 when sessions resume. The impeachment court is expected to convene the following day.

More than just a personal battle, Duterte emphasized the broader stakes: “This is not only about me. It’s about politicians and this administration’s promise to the Filipino people—that genuine public service will be delivered.”

Meanwhile, Duterte has already taken her fight to the Supreme Court, filing a petition challenging the legitimacy of the impeachment complaint. The political drama is far from over, and the nation watches closely as events unfold.
