Philippine president shrugs off calls to remove his second-in-command
Philippine leader **Ferdinand Marcos Jr** doesnt want to waste time on VP impeachment process. His statement comes after VP **Sara Duterte** made unusual public threats against him and other officials
In a surprising turn of events Ferdinand Marcos Jr said that pushing forward with VP impeachment would be pointless for the Congress (showing his laid-back approach to political conflicts)
The statement comes after Sara Duterte made some eye-raising comments about wanting to end lives of top-brass officials – including the president his wife and house speaker – if she gets targeted in some not-yet-explained assassination scheme. The vice-president is knee-deep in other problems too: shes accused of mis-managing secret government money
Multiple citizen-groups are ready to start legal actions‚ but the presidentʼs dont-bother stance might slow down their plans. However its unclear if his words will stop these groups from moving forward with their complaints against his second-in-command – who seems to be getting more unpredictable lately
