LIVE: ANC Special Coverage: House impeaches VP Sara; Cayetano is new SP | May 11, 2026

In a historic and high-stakes day for Philippine politics, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano has been elected as the new Senate President, ousting Senator Vicente "Tito" Sotto III in a sudden leadership shakeup. The move comes just as the House of Representatives officially voted to impeach Vice President Sara Duterte, with 257 lawmakers in favor of transmitting the articles of impeachment to the Senate. The session was further intensified by the dramatic appearance of Senator Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa, who claimed he was assaulted and blocked from entering the chamber by NBI agents and former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV. Trillanes claimed to be serving an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant against Dela Rosa. In response, the Senate has placed Dela Rosa under protective custody and held the NBI agents in contempt.
