What a week. And it only just started. You're on the intersection with Michael Popock exclusively on the Midas Touch Network.

0:10.2

All right, let's dive in. I don't even need an intro. I just want to get to it. Let's start with the stupid.

0:15.7

And we'll probably because we talk a lot about the Trump administration and back with the stupid before this whole

0:21.4

thing is over. And I just have to call it out for what it is. So Pam Bondi, and when she issued her new

1:21.6

You lost in court.

1:23.3

Okay.

1:24.2

Brian Schwalber, who is the only attorney general I respect in D, who is the D.C. attorney general, kicked your butt in court.
