00:05referring to the trial where she would have defended herself, won't happen at least for now.

00:10This as she reacts to the Senate's decision to archive the articles of impeachment against her.

00:16As I said, I wanted a bloodbath, meaning I wanted all the pieces of evidence

00:25from the prosecution and all the pieces of evidence from the defense presented for everyone.

00:32But unfortunately, wala na siya sa pagkakaroon.

00:36And of course, as I said, kinahanglan pangandaman ang tannan na posibleng mahitabo.

00:42So possibly, wala takibalo 2026, 2027, 2028 na ay mga mag-file na kod o impeachment.

00:52That will be another opportunity to answer.

00:57Duterte also says had the trial proceeded, she and her legal team were ready.

01:02In a Rappler Talk episode, Duterte's defense team spokesperson Michael Poa said

01:06the alleged misuse of confidential funds is being handled by the Commission on Audit,
