0:00.0	Welcome to Midas Touch Legal AF. If it is Saturday, it is Legal AF Live. If it is Sunday,
0:10.8	it is also Legal AF. Just not live. That's available for all the fine folks who Legal AFers
0:18.7	who will listen to this on their podcast. Michael Popak, I'm cheering because we are heading
0:25.7	into the holiday season with accountability. We're going to be talking about on the podcast.
0:32.8	We're starting to see stiffer sentences in connection with insurrectionists who have been
0:38.3	charged in connection with January 6th. We're going to talk about some of those sentences

2:01.7	injunction setting or an emergency appeal. But most, the vast majority of justice moves
2:08.2	at its own pace, a pace that you and I are used to, but our listeners and followers
