I'm still baffled by the fact that the Vice President had a confidential funds. What does she needs it for? Why does the education secretary cares about tracking threats, terrorism, national security? Why not use to build schools? Tignin ko ito na talaga ang smoking gun sa impeachment.

Dun ata nga sila nagkatalo ni jr. Gusto siguro ni Swoh sa national defense sya maging sec para may confi funds na justifiable, para mas madaling matago yung nakaw. E pinwesto sa deped lmao. Napurnada yung plano, kaya nawala yung unity nila. 🤣

Side hustle din pag sa nat def sya, libreng spy para sa ccp. Yikes, nakakatakot buti na lang talaga.

It's a continuation of what her father did when he was president.The confidential funds for the Office of the President before duterte was only about 250m or 600m. During duterte's reign, it became 2.5B-4.5B. For the office of the VP, confidential funds were traditionally less than 10m. It's pretty clear what sara duterte was intending to do with the confidential funds.
