This act explicitly prohibits the military or any other such unit (like the National Guard) under federal control from acting in a law enforcement capacity within the United States.

That is correct in terms of the United States Military as defined by the respective branches. However, the President can call forth the Militia(National Guard)and the President cannot organize, arm or discipline the Militia. All of those powers belong to Congress....

Article 1, Section 8
