Are legislators supposed to distribute nonsense material now?

This goofy data center nonsense “Notice of Maladministration” material was apparently put on desks in the House chamber by Representative Dylan Jordan this morning.

(Seriously, I don’t look for this goofy stuff).ย  If they ignore or fail to deliver this notice, they agree to pay $30,000.

Does this mean that legislators are supposed to defer to all the goofy nonsense material sent to them, or is it just Rep. Dylan Jordan?

  1. My eyes crossed in confusion so many times while reading this, that they could have crocheted a nifty yarn pot holder.

  2. He should use the paid version of Chat GTP and filled in the blanks it leaves.

    There’s no way he knows what any of those words mean.

  3. Listened to Mary from Gary spouting this. Her reading of the constitution should cause all sales tax exemptions to be invalidated. We will have so much money we wonโ€™t know what to do with it I guess?

    We live in the dumbest of times. And soon enough the poorest of times. Weep for our future as development moves annywhere else but here.

  4. If you read closely, the constitutional bits cited are either property tax-related, which HB 1005 does not address, or related to granting [something I won’t bother to define] to a SPECIFIC corporation. It makes no claim about classes of corporations, but about “a class of citizens OR corporation”. Corporation here is pointedly NOT plural, which would be necessary if it were referring to a “class of corporations”.
    That said, I propose an amendment to add an Oxford Comma here to make the list make more obvious sense. If any legislator wants to propose it, we can REALLY confuse voters!

    1. Sovereign Citizens, or individualists, or whatever stupid name they call themselves nowadays are pretty guilty of verbose, idiotic, nothingness.

  5. Most of the above could be viewed as routine politicking between legislators. However, when reading the inclusion of a dollar amount to be paid, presumably to the issuer of the flyer, some legislators may want to read Joint Rule 1B-1. If they ain’t gonna legislate, they may as well play good game of King of the Hill. Have DOT dump a load of snow in front of the capitol.

    Other legislators may want to reach out to the fine folks who run the Boys and Girls State programs and see if they can get a waiver to join the ’26 class.

  6. From my rear view mirror,; 30 years of term limits! You reap what you sow. Would that someone says, “keep your eyes on the ball” or “that’s goofy”, before the “rino hunters” hinder the cause further.

  7. I think this is uttering simulated process, a class 1 misdemeanor under SDCL 22-12-5. Dylan Jordan should be removed.

  8. That there is what I technically refer to as Sovereign Citizen Bull***t.

    The state is awash in these idiots right now. Thanks to Chat GPT and some outfit that is clearly distributing forms (probably for a fee) this stuff is all over.

    The only thing I can say for these new and improved forms is that they are easier to read, thanks to word processing. That is not to say any of it makes sense. You cannot make sense out of the stuff. These folks think they have discovered the secrets taught in some Dark Arts Legal Jurisprudence class at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Law School.

    These folks harass public officials on the regular. Not so much legislators but the people working hard at the courthouses- you know, the people who do the hard work every day to make sure we have things like safe jails and good roads.

    These give warning, declare people in default and then go file phony liens in other states. They are a drain on public resources and in some cases downright scary.

    Total drain on taxpayer resources.

    And, it is nearly impossible to get law enforcement motivated to go out and get criminal cases going against them under existing statutes.
