Summary
Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte publicly threatened to have President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., his wife, and the House Speaker assassinated if she were killed, escalating tensions between the two leaders.
Duterte accused Marcos and his allies of corruption, incompetence, and persecuting her staff, sparking the tirade.
The Presidential Security Command deemed the threat a national security issue and boosted Marcos’ protection.
This marks a severe fallout in their alliance after their 2022 election victory, amid broader political divisions and Duterte’s growing criticism of the administration.
The Repugs are way too united at this point. MAGA cultists would string Vance up in a heartbeat if he were stupid enough to fall out of line.
