CLAIM: Vice President Sara Duterte shouted at senators pushing for her impeachment.
RATING: FALSE
A YouTube video falsely claimed that Vice President Sara Duterte shouted at senators trying to push for her impeachment.
The thumbnail featured photos where Duterte and other senators looked like they were shouting. The video is titled “Sara Duterte, BINULYAWAN ang mga SENADOR na nais syang IIMPEACH! KAGULUHAN panoorin!”
(“Sara Duterte shouted at senators who wanted her to be impeached! Watch the chaos!”)
However, the uploaded video featured the June 10 plenary session of the Senate.
On the same day, the Office of the Vice President (OVP) announced in a Facebook post that Duterte would be on a personal trip to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia “to attend the Independence Day celebration and engage in an OVP program consultation with Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW).”
Moreover, Duterte has yet to appear at the Senate for an impeachment hearing.
On June 12, PDP Laban Official Facebook page shared some pictures of Duterte during the 127th Philippine Independence Day commemoration in Malaysia.
As of writing, the uploaded YouTube video has amassed 9,040 views and 323 likes. Azriel Gilson Dela Cruz
