VP Duterte trades barbs vs. lawmakers from the Senate, House on confidential funds
Transcript
00:00 In every budget hearing, agency heads and cabinet officers will always have allies and detractors in both chambers of Congress when asking for more money.
00:10 The second highest official of the land thanked those who supported her request for confidential funds, while had stinging words for opposition lawmakers who grilled her and gave her a hard time.
00:22 Daniel Malanastas is back with more.
00:27 Vice President Sara Duterte traded barbs against lawmakers both from the Senate and the House on the issue of confidential funds.
00:36 She claimed the Makabayan bloc and Representative Franz Castro keep telling lies on the office of the Vice President's confidential funds last year.
00:46 VP Duterte also hit Senator Risa Hontiveros. To quote, "Senator Risa Hontiveros, while she amuses the nation with her flair for drama, could only wish the 2022 confidential funds was accessed legally."
01:01 Duterte added, "It's a shame they still cannot produce a proof to support their alleged dirty or malicious imagination."
01:09 Hontiveros had this response in reply.
01:12 "Hindi kayo special. If you're so confident about those confidential funds, then defend them publicly."
01:21 Castro, meanwhile, responded by saying she only laid out or spoke of the facts on confidential funds.
01:28 Meanwhile, one of VP Duterte's allies said, "During the OVP and DepEd's budget hearing in the Senate for 2024, the issue on confidential funds was explained well."
01:40 "Properly explained namanya, nungan dito sa hearing, di bahal. Matagal ba yung datang patung hearing. It explained namanya.
01:48 And, uh, pa lagi sila sabi nya. DICS is only up to proposal. Proposing their budget.
02:00 Well, hindi pa. As I said, process yan eh. Process yan. Committee level muna, then afterwards, plenary level.
02:08 So, hihintayin natin sa, ano may discussion yan doon sa plenaryo. Kasi sa plenaryo kasi nandun lang lahat na senador."
02:20 Daniel Manolastas for the Nation.
