Death threats in Marcos-Duterte feud highlight the Philippines' problem with political violence

Family dynasties have a stranglehold on Filipino politics — and this week was a reminder that some dynasties at the top are militaristic and fond of violence.
The article from ABC News discusses the political tension in the Philippines involving Vice President Sara Duterte and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Sara Duterte has publicly stated that she received death threats, which she attributes to her political stance and her family's history of receiving such threats. This comes amidst a backdrop of political discord, where Sara Duterte's father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, has been charged with terrorism-related offenses by the Department of Justice under Marcos's administration. The charges stem from an incident where Rodrigo Duterte allegedly threatened to kill a lawmaker. The situation has escalated political tensions, with Sara Duterte suggesting that these threats and charges are part of a broader political vendetta. Meanwhile, President Marcos has not directly responded to the allegations but has emphasized the need for law and order, indicating that legal processes must take their course. This ongoing feud highlights the fragile political alliances and the intense personal and political rivalries within the country's leadership.
