Since nobody expects an investigative committee to actually investigate, the only remaining interest is in seeing how they do it, especially when the big names are involved. And just as Mr. Handsome donned retro glasses and devoured the Senate committee that questioned him about corruption in the PSOE, Feijóo was today just another one of the crowd who go to Congress to throw a tantrum when the cameras are around.

Feijóo is still being teased about how he never became president because he didn't want to. The worst thing that can happen to an aspiring general is for his rank to go unnoticed. Especially in such a predictable session where the members of parliament seemed bored with their own questions about a drama.sub iudiceLike the DANA storm, and when the jury had already unanimously delivered its verdict on the afternoon of the state funeral.

Feijóo's problem is that while Mazón needed an afternoon and a shower to get his bearings, the PP president spent a whole year defending him. That's why today he appeared with an answering machine: Mazón had no information; the State did. Mazón attended the funeral for the victims of the DANA storm; Sánchez didn't attend the funeral for those who died in the Adamuz train crash. If you tell me that Vox put up Mazón's replacement, I'll tell them that you're putting up with Pedro Sánchez. And everything.

Or almost everything. Feijóo has tried to emulate Ayuso with Bildu and Esquerra, but he lacks the cunning that's in vogue now. He said to the Bildu representative, "And you and your party talk to me about dead bodies and crimes?"—such a forced way of going from the DANA storm to ETA that it was embarrassing to hear.

The only investigation from which Valencians can expect justice is that of the judge in Catarroja.
