The Philippine Senate, sitting as an impeachment court, opened proceedings against Vice President Sara Duterte in May 2026 after the House transmitted articles alleging threats against the president and other misconduct. The full trial is scheduled to begin July 6, with Duterte filing a detailed response by the June 1 deadline that challenged the articles on constitutional, procedural, and substantive grounds. Conviction requires a two-thirds Senate vote, or 16 of 24 members, while Duterte needs only nine supporters to block removal and disqualification. Senate leadership changes and documented alliances have positioned several members to resist conviction, consistent with the chamber’s handling of the prior impeachment attempt that ended before trial. These institutional and political alignments underpin the current trader consensus reflected in the 68.5% probability against conviction.
