00:09The rider just stopped on the other lane and was hit by a delivery van.

00:15Fortunately, he was not hit by the van.

05:33Vice President Sara Duterte was the first vice president to be impeached in the Philippines.

05:38Let's go back to the other officials of the country who faced impeachment in the breaking news of JP Soriano.

05:48This is one of the unforgettable meetings of the administration of President Joseph Estrada in 2000.

05:54On the verified complaint for impeachment against His Excellency President Joseph Ejército Estrada

06:00for alleged bribery, graft and corruption, betrayal of public trust, and culpable violation of the Constitution.

06:09The reading of the articles of impeachment against Estrada in the plenary of the House of Representatives

06:15was even tried by his allies.

06:18In section 3 paragraph 4 of article 11 of the Constitution of the Philippines

06:24and section 13 of the Rules of Procedures and Impeachment Proceedings to wit,

06:28in case the verified complaint or resolution of impeachment is filed

06:33Mr. Speaker, I rise to raise a point of order.

06:36endorsement of the complaint, resolution to the Senate, a verified complaint,

06:40but they were bribed.

06:42Accordingly, the Secretary General is immediately directed to transmit to the Senate

06:49the impeachment complaint prostituted in the articles of impeachment

06:53together with the verified resolution of endorsement.

06:57Session is suspended.

07:01Because of this, Estrada became the first president of the country to be impeached.

07:07The no vote habit.

07:10I represent!

07:13Even if his impeachment trial was not completed following the election of Edsa Dos

07:17who defied him in office,

07:20because Estrada was alive in the vocabulary of the Filipinos,

07:24the word impeachment.

07:27This is the process under the law for the removal of presidents,

07:33vice presidents, members of the Supreme Court,

07:37and leaders of constitutional commissions, as well as ombudsmen.

07:42In the investigation of the GMA Integrated News Research,

07:45it was first tried in 1949,

07:49when President Elpidio Quirino filed an impeachment complaint.

07:54In 1964, President Diosdado Macapagal also faced it.

07:59And in 1985, President Ferdinand Marcos Sr.

08:04All of those complaints were trashed.

08:07This process was also used against President Cory Aquino in 1988,

08:12but it also did not succeed.

08:14Former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo

08:17was impeached by subsequent impeachment complaints from 2005 to 2008,

08:23but none of them succeeded.

08:27Former President Inoy Aquino and Rodrigo Duterte also faced it in 2014 and 2017,

08:34but all of them were trashed as well.

08:37Impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Z. Duterte.

08:41Is there any objection?

08:43The chair hears none.

08:44The motion is approved.

08:46The impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte

08:50is a historical event

08:52because she was the first vice president to be impeached in the country,

08:57but she was not the first vice president to be impeached.

09:03Estrada was impeached in 1994.

09:09Vice President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo was impeached in 2000.

09:14None of them succeeded.

09:17Impeachment complaint against Vice President Noel de Castro in 2005

09:23and Leny Robredo in 2017 were also trashed,

09:26but none of them were endorsed.

09:30In total, five officials of the country were impeached after the end of the EDSA revolution.

09:36It was President Estrada in 2000,

09:39former Ombudsman Mercedes Gutierrez in 2011,

09:43former Chief Justice Renato Corona in 2012,

09:47former Cominec Chairman Andres Bautista in 2017,

09:51and now Vice President Duterte.

09:55J.P. Soriano reports for GMA Integrated News.

10:01To better understand the impeachment process of Vice President Sara Duterte,

10:05we talked to an expert on the law.

10:07Joining us is the Philippine Bar Association Committee on Public Issues and Public Relations member

10:12and Constitutional Law Assistant Professor Paolo Tamase.

10:16Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali.

10:20Good morning to you too.

10:22What was your first reaction to what happened yesterday

10:25regarding the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte, sir?

10:29Of course, I was surprised by the continuation of the impeachment against Vice President Duterte.

10:36We know that several complaints were filed in Congress in the past few months,

10:43but there was nothing to do with those complaints.

10:48So when it continued yesterday, even the lawyers were surprised by what happened.

10:53But please explain to us the process of impeachment

10:57because some are asking, of course, he is the Vice President,

11:01what will happen to his job as a vice while an impeachment trial is being conducted against him?

11:10So when an official is impeached, he is not yet removed from his position.

11:15He will be given a chance to defend himself if there is a trial in the Senate.

11:22Since the trial is not yet continuing and the Senate has not yet made a decision,

11:28Vice President Duterte is still the Vice President and his duties in the government will continue.

11:34I see. Okay.

11:35The Senate session adjourned yesterday.

11:39Some are saying that they can convene immediately if the Senate impeachment court wants to.

11:46What are the pros and cons of this if they return to the session before the elections or after?

11:55So as an academic, the Senate's duty to decide on this impeachment complaint,

12:05not because it is recessed, they cannot convene because the Senate is not doing it legislatively

12:12if they are filing impeachment cases.

12:15There are pros and cons, but those pros and cons are political.

12:19Of course, it has an effect on the upcoming elections

12:23and the decision of the Senate may also have an effect on the upcoming elections if the impeachment continues.

12:29Okay.

12:30You mentioned that it is possible for the congressmen to change their prosecutor and the senator judge.

12:37What will happen if the impeachment trial is changed to the new regular session of Congress, sir?

12:45So to be frank, it is not clear in the current law what will happen if the impeachment passes on June 30.

12:54The view of the academics will change.

12:56In my opinion, I think the trial should also end on June 30 because the Congress is changing when it comes to June 30.

13:05The Senate is changing.

13:07So the pending business in the Senate and the House cannot be passed by the Congress,

13:13including the impeachment.

13:15All right.

13:16Thank you very much for the insights you gave us about the impeachment.

13:20Thank you as well.

13:22That was Assistant Professor Paolo Tamase of the Philippine Bar Association.
