00:00When Senator Francis Tolentino says there are far more pressing problems of the country to focus on
00:06than impeaching the daughter of her former boss,
00:09it is a preview of how he is likely to vote on the impeachment complaint when judgment time is up.
00:16An identical or similar sentiment, at least six to ten senators share if, and that's a big if,
00:24and when they form the lineup of the 20th Congress tasked to educate or adjudicate on the complaint,
00:31our Daniel tells us more to include the latest NBI charge filed against the embattled vice president.
00:40As the National Bureau of Investigation made another move against Vice President Sara Duterte
00:45for Senate President Francis Escudero, this won't affect the impeachment proceedings.
00:53Escudero said the Senate will just be passive and will sit as jurors of the impeachment court,
01:08as he explained that unlike any other Senate committee investigation, it is not their job
01:14to issue subpoenas to gather evidence, as this is the job for the prosecution and the defense.
01:23Senate Majority Leader Francis Torrentino meanwhile finds the impeachment as distraction
01:39in light of various problems that have beset the country.
01:53However, he sees the point of some legal opinions saying the current Congress which started the
02:14impeachment shall also conclude the proceedings and pass the final judgment on the complaint.
02:23Congress should likewise finish it. Although there is another school of thought,
02:27that the Congress is a continuing body, they can continue to decide.
