I'm not an authority however, when Obola throws the doors open and goes forth with his plan, couldn't our (spineless) representatives leverage Article 8 of The Constitution, which lists the Enumerated Powers of Congress to:

To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress

I would think, if they had any cajones at all, could fund militia's (apart from the National Guard, which was found not to be a militia) in the border States to repel an Invasion that we know is coming.

The insurrection is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
