@netizenrepublic: During the September 7, 2026 Senate session, Senator Robin Padilla questioned whether criminal proceedings should continue against Vice President Sara Duterte while she remains a sitting impeachable officer and is currently facing an impeachment trial. Padilla argued that the principle of immunity from suit applied to the President should also be considered for the Vice President. He said the purpose of such protection is to prevent harassment, distraction, and legal proceedings that could interfere with the duties of an impeachable official. #NetRepublic #VPSaraOnTrial #Philippines
