The House justice committee proceeds with the first impeachment hearing against Vice President Sara Duterte on March 25, 2026, despite her and her lawyers' absence. The agenda includes ground rules, pending motions, subpoenas, and witnesses for the April 14 public hearing. Officials stress the proceedings are evidence-based from official audit findings.
Lawmakers hit back at a Supreme Court petition by Vice President Sara Duterte's allies seeking to block her ongoing impeachment proceedings in the House of Representatives. The move comes after the House justice committee advanced two complaints to hearings.

Vice President Sara Duterte's camp frames her impeachment proceedings as a political distraction from the escalating energy crisis, while House lawmakers assert they can address both accountability and economic challenges.
The House public accounts panel and Bicol Saro Rep. Terry Ridon have raised concerns over a potential conflict of interest, as two members of Vice President Sara Duterte's legal team in the ongoing impeachment proceedings could serve as witnesses in the handling of confidential funds. Ridon stated that including Michael Poa and Reynold Munsayac on the defense panel raises serious questions due to their direct involvement in issues surrounding the confidential funds of the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education.

In a follow-up to his 2024 affidavit accusing Vice President Sara Duterte of ties to drug dealers and offshore gaming operators funding her 2022 campaign, detainee Ramil Madriaga rejected a P500 million to P1 billion bribe offer from former colleagues to stay silent, his lawyer revealed. The disclosure coincides with a jail confrontation prompting transfer requests for his safety.

A false claim alleging that the Supreme Court ordered the expulsion of Manila 6th District Rep. Bienvenido Abante Jr. from the House of Representatives has been debunked by fact-checkers. Abante remains a member and recently endorsed the fourth impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte. No evidence exists of such a decision from the high court.
