20.10.2026 ⇢ The Day the Supreme Court Amnestied Junqueras
⌨

The death toll from DANA Adam rose from four to six with the discovery of a farmer, as attention moved from rescues in Valencia and Alicante to damage assessment, with citrus and avocado harvests feared lost. Sánchez visited the forward command post in Oliva, announcing a disaster-zone declaration and urging a country-wide climate agreement amid a tense reception.

Feijóo confirmed negotiations with Vox over Senate lists to counter the left front, offering to withdraw candidates and cede autonomic senators and Mesa places to retain control, six seats short of full dominance and key to the Constitutional Court. The PP also pressed Exteriores over the suspended ley de nietos vote.

The Supreme Court extinguished criminal liability for Junqueras, Romeva, Turull and Bassa for embezzlement, applying the amnesty while accusing the Constitutional Court of interference, expansionism and unnecessary grandiloquence.
