The #ISLD, that job really chews through people.

That is a paraphrase from a former coworker.

#ISLD
"These men work in the dark. They see everything."

#OMFG. Why there hasn't been a mass shooting incident at the #ISLD I do not know. They're relying on #BlueCollar overturn I guess.

My father, as I've often said, was an old Chicago boy, and I worked at the Idaho State Liquor Division #ISLD for two decades. Bought in his memory 350 ml 90 proof FEW Straight #Bourbon Whiskey, distilled in Evanston, Illinois, his birthplace and that of Prohibition. Support your #LocalProduct.

If under the #ISLD the "#legislature" is pre-eminent over a state's laws, wouldn't the development of the state constitution also be a legislative act, and thus, also pre-eminent? The #Constitution doesn't specify that the state "legislature" is a specific body. Aren't #initiatives and amednments also legislative?

Moore v. Harper is a test of whether this Supreme Court can ever be trusted with power.

At the beginning of this year I tried to sound the alarm. In order to do so, I had to teach myself about the Independent State Legislature Doctrine (#ISLD)

Here is my thread where I try to walk you through my own self-taught understanding of the anti-democratic theory.
