NG deployments have been due to Antifa and rioters endangering public servants.
Right, and how does that translate to plenary authority for the President? Especially given that the President himself is the source for both of those claims.
Title 10 of the U.S. Code grants the President authority over the National Guard and provides specific powers for their deployment, particularly within the United States during domestic emergencies established by the Constitution.
Yes - but protestors are not the scale of emergency that this bill talks about - or that Trump is pretending they are.
Our brave antifa warriors risk their lives every day to bring us epic content we can share and laugh at together.

The only reason why deportation is more prolific now is because the Biden administration let so many extra millions enter illegally.Trump and MAGA need to realise that in a democracy, people have a right to disagree.
The 'enemy within' as Trump calls them are citizens distressed at the way ICE are turning up and grabbing people off the street - sometimes grabbing mothers and leaving their teenage daughters behind! (As happened in New York - just google it - it is quite distressing viewing.)
That is appalling behaviour. Many of the arrests are appalling and violent.
And it has the stink of demagoguery - of what sociologists call "Othering" - of Trump pretending to the people that there is a massive crisis - and he's the "strong-man" that's going to solve the crisis!

Is there any other realistic reason other than facilitating ICE getting their job of rounding up illegal aliens done?
Considering that that's not one of the conditions that grants the President the authority to federalize the Guard, Trump should probably come up with some other justifications if he wants any hope of the courts allowing him to do it.
