On June 26, former president Rodrigo Duterte lashed out at Ellen Tordesillas, head of VERA Files, in his online show. This came after VERA Files debunked Duterte’s recent claims about his salary and his position on the involvement of cops in illegal drug war trade.
Read Tordesillas’ statement here:
Duterte does not dispute any of VERA Files’ fact checks that mentioned him.
That’s why he is resorting to vulgarity, the only language he knows.
I’m not stooping to his level.
Ellen Tordesillas
VERA Files president
