What would stop them from doing that to a bunch of 1st Mountain Marines on the sly, and then sending them to these cities as the “Federal Marshals”?

The law.

Don’t mean to be a pain, but which law? Posse Comitatus or something else? My understanding is that PC does not apply to the Marines. If there is another law, why wouldn’t it apply to National Guard troops also?
