...the power of the federal government to suspend habeas corpus “in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety” is clearly spelled out in Article 1, Section IX. And an insurrection of eleven states would certainly qualify as such. State governments are elected governments with sovereign rights.

State governments are elected governments with sovereign rights. Within their own borders and so long as their actions don't violate the Constitution.
