Defensor Claims Politics Behind Sara Duterte Impeachment Push

Mike Defensor outlines his position on the impeachment efforts against Vice President Sara Duterte, framing the move as politically driven ahead of the 2028 elections. He addresses allegations tied to the EJK investigation involving former President Rodrigo Duterte, including claims about military witnesses, affidavit pressure, and evidence such as documented fund deliveries.

The discussion extends to COA audit findings, focusing on confidential funds and comparing them with larger unresolved balances across multiple government agencies. Defensor highlights what he describes as selective scrutiny, contrasting the attention on the vice president with the absence of similar actions in other departments.

He also examines issues surrounding flood control funding, infrastructure budget reallocations, and the role of congressional financing. Additional points include reactions to Blue Ribbon proceedings, statements from the Ombudsman, and broader concerns on transparency, accountability, and systemic corruption within government processes.
