Sara Duterte-Carpio

Sara Duterte-Carpio is the current Vice-President of the Philippines. She is newsworthy due to facing multiple impeachment complaints filed against her. These complaints, awaiting action from the House of Representatives, accuse her of offenses related to her wealth and alleged threats. The impeachment proceedings are significant because if convicted by the Senate, she would lose her position and be barred from holding future office. This is particularly relevant as she is considered a potential frontrunner for the presidency. The impeachment attempts are seen by some as difficult due to her popularity. Simultaneously, an impeachment complaint has been filed against President Marcos, which some observers believe may be a preemptive tactic against stronger challenges.
