The obsession with the right to overthrow the Sánchez government reached delirium with the unprecedented decision of the Supreme Court to open a trial against the state attorney general. To get there, everyone who could do it did so: the Popular Party, the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid, the “Illustrious” Madrid Bar Association, the Presidency of the Community of Madrid, the Council of Prosecutors, several media. and, icing on the cake, the Supreme Court, more precisely its second chamber, presided over by Judge Marchena, whom the PP intended to elevate to the presidency of the court to control justice “through the back door”. What about state institutions? And the quality of democracy? Well, fuck them. Spain is sinking and the patriotic urgency is to oust Sánchez.
I will not paint a detailed portrait of this disgusting offensive. My colleagues at elDiario.es are already doing it, with much more knowledge and depth. I will limit myself to providing a summary. This newspaper exclusively publishes that Alberto González Amador, the boyfriend of Isabel Díaz Ayuso, is under investigation for tax evasion and falsification of documents in relation to a mask company during the pandemic. The chief of staff of the Madrid president, Miguel Ángel Rodríguez, reacts with a drunken campaign according to which the prosecutor in charge of the case, Julián Salto Torres, offered González Amador a compliance agreement so that the case would not be brought before the courts. but the agreement was stopped “from above”. The message that Rodríguez intends to convey is simple: we are not facing a case of corruption but rather a political scandal whose objective is the destruction of Ayuso. To carry out his stratagem, he sends The world, Digital freedom, He Debate And Vozpopuli the copy of an email from prosecutor Salto to González Amador in which he tells him that the compliance agreement is possible. In reality, the request for agreement did not come from the prosecutor, but from the fraudster, and the e-mail is nothing other than a response to his request, but no matter: the four media publish obediently that the prosecutor is the one who proposed the agreement and, unless The worldThey spread the hoax in high places that he had been arrested. In response to journalists’ questions about this information and to safeguard the name of the institution, the prosecutor’s office published a press release the next day in which it clarified that it was González Amador who requested the compliance agreement.
