But from @rollingstone.com today:

Screenshot from the linked Rolling Stone article: The president can request, but not order, a governor to deploy their state’s National Guard. The governor can refuse the request, and Trump would not be allowed under the Constitution to send National Guard troops to California from other states. However, the Trump administration has previously mulled invoking the Insurrection Act, which could allow the president to deploy the U.S. military domestically, federalize the National Guard, and send in troops to quell uprisings or civil disorder.

I'm deferring to the lawyers on here.

Will just share relevant articles, with the understanding this administration is basically lawless.

@brennancenter.org, 2024:
The President’s Power to Call Out the National Guard Is Not a Blank Check
Domestic deployment under Section 502(f) has its limits, and for good reason.
