It occurs to me that Sisolak’s “Medical Emergency Powers” is, in reality, Martial Law by another name, with meaningless distinctions.

When openly called “Martial Law” the Governor exercises nearly limitless power, enforcing it with soldiers.

When the power is called “Medical Emergency Powers” the Governor exercises the same limitless power, but enforces it through “police” (which had only been formed on East Coast 20 years before NV statehood and was a mere shadow of the “standing army” police are today), as well as designating scores of Executive Branch employees “law enforcement”, thus doing what Jefferson referred to in the Declaration of Independence as “…sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance."

Any claim that Martial Law and Medical Emergency Power are not the same is arguing a distinction without a difference.
