During a control session with the government of the communist Pedro Sanchez in the Congress of Deputies in Spain, the leader of VOX, Santiago Abascal, made a harsh, direct accusation against the Spanish president, questioning the moral integrity of his administration and severely pointing to the corruption surrounding the president's inner circle.
In a harsh speech, Abascal addressed the head of the executive with a phrase that quickly went viral: "Did you have breakfast this morning? How much of the Spaniards' money has gone to your brother, your wife, your party, or corrupt businessmen?"
The leader of the main right-wing force did not stop there. He accused Sanchez of leading an administration surrounded by dark schemes and asked, "How much of the Spaniards' money has gone down the drains of the corruption schemes that surround you?" while citizens "pay very high taxes so that some can spend them on prostitutes."

Abascal also pointed to a broader social problem, which is a direct consequence of the socialist management model. "It has never been so difficult to access housing as under your government," he stated, referring to the rising cost of renting and buying property that especially affects young people and the middle class.
In one of the most critical parts of his speech, Abascal highlighted the paradox between the privileges of the presidential inner circle and the growing precariousness of millions of citizens. "While your inner circle was stealing, more and more Spaniards are at risk of extreme poverty. What was left, you hand over to illegal immigrants," he said, linking the diversion of public resources to a migration policy that prioritizes illegal foreigners over nationals.

The VOX leader ended his speech with a direct accusation: "We can't stand the way you systematically humiliate and lie to Spaniards. You are corrupt and a traitor."
After making these statements, Abascal left the chamber without waiting for a response from the socialist president, leaving a Congress filled with tension and full of criticism from other parties against Sanchez.
