tv MANILA - Former Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II and columnist Mon Tulfo on Tuesday hurled insults at each other during a Senate investigation into an alleged corruption scheme at the Bureau of Immigration.

"He made them appear as lame ducks because of me... even if I have been out of government office in the past 2 years," he said. "Bakit hindi mo pinag-affidavit 'yung lahat ng nag-supply sa iyo [ng pictures]? Nasan ang isang testigo mo na magpapatotoo na may pera 'yang dinadala?" Aguirre said. The exchange got personal when Tulfo accused Aguirre of being kicked out of Duterte's Cabinet because the former Justice chief was "stupid."
