A fuming Vice President Sara Duterte cursed President Marcos, First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos and House Speaker Martin Romualdez as she held a midnight press conference on Saturday, Nov. 23.

Duterte fumed over the political persecution that the Office of the Vice President (OVP) is currently experiencing from the administration and dug up the supposed "lies" that President Marcos, her running mate during the elections, had said only to secure the votes of the people.

Duterte claimed Marcos lied when he promised the people that he could sell the rice at P20 per kilo.

"Either he did not know what he's talking about, he's so incompetent or he was lying to his teeth to get the votes of people," she said.

The Vice President cursed the First Lady as she remembered the controversial white envelopes that Department of Education (DepEd) officials supposedly received from the OVP.

Duterte claimed Liza had prior knowledge about the said envelope.

"Ginigitgit nyo 'yung mga tao ko dyan sa envelop na yan. Liza Marcos, naalala mo nagpadala ka sakin ng video sinabihan mo ako saan kukunin ang pera? (You are persecuting my people because of that envelope. Liza Marcos, do you remember sending me a video asking me where to get the money?)," she said.

"Wala ka ngang posisyon sa gobyerno, namimigay ka ng pera ng gobyerno eh (You do not even have a position in the government but you're giving out money)," she added.

The Vice President also cursed at Manila 3rd District Rep. Joel Chua, who ordered the detention of her chief of staff, Zuleika Lopez, at the House of Representatives and the late night transfer of Lopez to another facility.

"They started destroying my name, pummeling me in the media with the multi-million PR campaign. Binastos nila ako ng mga pagsisinungaling nila na kesyo taksil, kesyo korap, abusado (They disrespected with the lies that I am a traitor, a corrupt and an abuser)," she said.

"'Yung mga congressman na yan na naghi-hearing, ano ang sinasabi nila pagkatapos... pasensya na kayo ha kailangan kasi namin ng pera mag-e-eleksyon na...Di mo pala gusto ginagawa mo eh bakit mo sinisira pangalan ko Joel Chua? (Those congressmen who are conducting hearings, what are they saying after? They're sorry because they have to do it for money? If you do not like what you're doing, why are you tainting my name, Joel Chua?)" she added.

Duterte, who hurled an expletive-laced rant against the First Couple and some congressmen, appeared at the midnight press conference that was initially held for Lopez.

This came after Lopez said several individuals barged into her detention room in the middle of the night and attempted to transfer her to the Women's Correctional Facility in Mandaluyong City, as ordered by Chua.

Duterte, who requested to stay at the House compound to join Lopez, was serving as the latter's current legal counsel following the incident.

Duterte then asked the administration to end their "show" at the House so the OVP can finally continue its responsibilities.
