Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte just posted bail after being arrested on charges she allegedly plotted to assassinate President Marcos and his family — a shocking claim from her 2024 press conference that she denies. Now facing both criminal charges and an impeachment trial, her political future hangs in the balance, especially as she eyes a 2028 presidential run. Court proceedings revealed she felt unsafe and accused authorities of harassment, while officials insisted she was treated respectfully. Bail was set at $1,900 per count — a symbolic gesture amid mounting legal and political pressure. The scandal also includes separate accusations of misusing public funds, all while exposing deep fractures within the Philippines’ powerful political dynasties.
