00:00House Speaker Martin Romualdez did not yet realize that the statements of Vice President Sana Duterte
00:06that President Bongbong Marcos and First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos will be killed
00:11are the ones that became the headlines of the Vice President.
00:13Romualdez said that Duterte is just removing the issue about the confidential funds of OVP and DepEd.
00:21Breaking news from Mackie Polido.
00:23In the plenary of the House of Representatives, Speaker Martin Romualdez responded to the statements of Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:33It is alarming and it is impossible to ignore the statement of the Vice President
00:37that President Bongbong Marcos, First Lady Liza Araneta Marcos, and Speaker Romualdez will be killed.
00:44Because these kinds of statements are dangerous, they need to be answered.
00:49This is no longer a joke. This is no longer a normal speech.
00:54This is a direct threat to our democracy, to our security, and to the security of the country.
01:08Such statement is not just reckless, it is dangerous.
01:12It sends a chilling message to our people.
01:15A message that violence can be contemplated by those in positions of power.
01:27The Vice President's unfounded and baseless accusations that I am plotting to destroy her
01:35because of alleged political ambitions for 2028 elections.
01:40My colleagues, these accusations are not only untrue, they are a desperate attempt to distract from the real issues at hand.
01:49The issues surrounding confidential and intelligence funds, the questionable disbursements, and the lack of transparency demand answers.
01:59We will not tolerate and accept vague explanations and evasive responses.
02:07If you have nothing to hide, why don't you answer the questions?
02:11It is the right of the people to know the truth.
02:15Romualdez also denied obeying the protocols of the Camera.
02:20Disrespect for the protocols, security measures, and leadership of this institution is not just a breach of rules, it is a breach of trust.
02:32After Romualdez's speech, some congressmen also spoke to condemn the statements of the Vice President
02:39and called for an investigation in order for him to be held accountable.
02:43The House must take immediate action.
02:46We must call for a full investigation into the Vice President.
02:51Mr. Speaker, the behavior cannot just be tolerated.
02:55And we demand that the Vice President face the full force of the law for actions.
03:01We cannot and will not allow anyone, even the Vice President, to threaten the very foundation of this Republic.
03:10Congressmen also condemned the resolution asking for support from the President and the Speaker.
03:16After the speech, the lawmakers, including Romualdez, also took pictures,
03:20including VP Sara's ally, former President and former 2nd District Representative Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
03:28Romualdez's jump was seen by VP Sara, who was inside the room at that time.
03:33We are still trying to get her statement from what Romualdez said.
03:38Macky Pulido reporting for GMA Integrated News.
