Sánchez reveals his role in socialist corruption with his attacks on judges

I'm just a blogger. If I were accused of committing a crime, a judge would have to determine whether there's enough evidence to convict me.

In democratic countries, the laws are equally binding on everyone. Or at least that's what should happen. Likewise, in all democracies, judges have a fundamental role: guaranteeing a fair trial for those accused of committing a crime, assessing the indications and evidence (if any), guaranteeing the accused person's right to defense and the presumption of innocence.

For some time now, in Spain we have been seeing attacks on judges by politicians who do not respect democratic norms. This was what happened with those accused (and ultimately convicted) for their participation in the separatist coup of October 1, 2017 in Catalonia, an attempt to undermine constitutional legality. These attacks on judges were carried out by separatist and far-left parties that, coincidentally, are today the parliamentary partners of Pedro Sánchez's government. With these attacks, the coup plotters and their supporters sought to delegitimize the judges and place themselves above the law, aspiring to enjoy an impunity that is incompatible with the very essence of democracy.

Yesterday, in an interview on Televisión Española (a media outlet paid for by all Spaniards and which the government has turned into a propaganda organ at the service of the PSOE), Sánchez once again attacked the Justice system, claiming that "there are judges making politics", in a clumsy and crude attempt to discredit those who are investigating the corruption scandals that plague the environment Sánchez's staff and his government. This is the same Sánchez who came to power in 2018 presenting himself as a defender of regeneration against the political corruption of his rivals. Sánchez portrayed himself yesterday as the worst corrupt politician there can be: someone who believes he is above the law, someone who believes he should enjoy impunity and that in a democratic country the rules should apply to everyone except him and those close to him.

With this attack on the judges, Pedro Sánchez reveals his true idea of ​​democracy, delegitimizing one of its pillars: equality before the law. This equality is what guarantees that whether you are an anonymous citizen or a ruler, the law must be applied to you equally and no one should enjoy privileges simply because they hold political power. Sánchez's idea of ​​politics was already made clear a few years ago by copying the methods of the Venezuelan socialist dictatorship to control the judges and, finally, presenting a bill - also copied from Chávez and Maduro - to grant himself and Spanish socialism total impunity to break the law.

It must be said that Sánchez's attack on the judiciary is consistent with his good relations with some of the worst dictatorships in the world. With his actions, the socialist leader demonstrates that deep down he does not believe in democracy and aspires to become a dictator, a politician whose wishes are commands for the Spanish people and who is untouchable by the judges. This is already revealing: Is there any doubt about Sánchez's involvement in socialist corruption, seeing how he attacks the judges who investigate it? Would this be his reaction if he were not directly involved in these scandals?
