Philippine VP Duterte Threatens President, First Lady, and Speaker with Assassination if She Is Killed
Nov 23, 2024, 12:04 PM
Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte has publicly threatened President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., stating she has contracted an assassin to kill him, his wife First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos, and House Speaker Martin Romualdez if she herself is killed. In a midnight virtual press conference, Duterte declared, 'If I get killed, go kill BBM, Liza Araneta, Martin Romualdez...no joke, no joke.' The Presidential Communications Office responded by stating her comments constitute an 'active threat' against the President's life. Malacañang Palace announced that the Presidential Security Command (PSC) will immediately act on Duterte's threat, and security agencies have stepped up safety protocols. The feud between the two powerful political families has escalated significantly.
