Post re-construction (civil war) LAW gives the president the authority to federalize a states national guard. This gets around the Posse Comitatus in the Constitution.

The federalized national guard can be ordered to arrest the governor, every legislator, every justice all the way down the chain to the janitors. Any federalized national guard that refuses is charged under the UCMJ and would probably go to federal prison for 20 years if lucky.

Brings to mind the National Guard forcing Gov George Wallace to integrate the schools in Alabama.

The President has some awfully big sticks he can use to put a stop to all this leftist nonsense. It appears that he's going to be forced to use one or more of his big sticks to bring our nation's domestic enemies to heel.

I'm with him, whichever way he decides to handle this.
