The episode opens with a promotional message from Renee McGinnis of CROI Health. The main news segment begins at 12:05, focusing on legal proceedings in Spain. The Supreme Court has started the trial of former Transport Minister José Luis Ábalos, his advisor Coldo García, and businessman Víctor de Aldama. They are accused of irregularities in mask purchases by the Transport Ministry during the pandemic. Ábalos and Coldo requested the trial be suspended, but this was denied. The first declarations included written testimonies from Congress President Francina Armengol and Minister Ángel Víctor Torres, who were allowed to avoid in-person appearances. Both distanced themselves from the corruption case in their statements. Lawyers for Ábalos and Coldo unsuccessfully tried to suspend the trial. Next, Ábalos's son, Víctor Ábalos, testified as a witness. He denied being a custodian of his father's money, contradicting reports from the UCO police unit. He stated he only provided financial help to his father when needed, not as a custodian. Other witnesses, including a partner of Víctor de Aldama and the brother of Coldo García, Joseba García, refused to answer questions because they are implicated in the same case at the National Court. Coldo García's brother did answer his lawyer regarding the hiring of a prostitute, Jessica Rodríguez, at the public company Ineco. Rodríguez is scheduled to testify next in the Supreme Court trial. The episode also covers another trial, the Kitsen case, in the National Court. This involves former PP minister Jorge Fernández Díaz and others for alleged espionage against Luis Bárcenas. The prosecution opposed suspending this trial, as requested by the defenses, arguing the National Court is competent and no rights violations occurred. The prosecution also rejected investigating former PP secretary general María Dolores de Cospedal. Vox spokesperson Pepa Millán commented on both trials in Congress, accusing Spain's two main parties of sustaining a corrupt system. She claimed this system has institutionalized corruption, deindustrialized Spain, robbed young people's futures, and made jobs insufficient for financial security. The episode concludes with promotional mentions for Libertad Digital and Es Radio.
