Duterte to Cabinet: Face Senate only as I tell you

In his series of attacks against senators, President Rodrigo Duterte on Monday night directed members of his Cabinet to secure his clearance first before attending Senate investigations.

"This time, I will require every Cabinet member to clear with me any invitation, and if I think walang silbi (it's useless) except to be harassed, to be berated in front of [the] public, eh, hintuin ko na 'yan at pagbawalan ko na (then I will stop them from going)," Duterte said.
