During an emergency hearing, Judge Immergut questioned the federal government’s actions, accusing them of circumventing her order by mobilizing troops from Texas after initially moving them from California. This prompted criticism from White House officials, who argued the President’s authority as commander-in-chief superseded the judge’s ruling, claiming the deployment was necessary to defend federal officers and maintain order.

Miller and Trump view dissent as a form of rebellion, utilizing events like the murder of Charlie Kirk or protests against ICE to justify the use of state power to suppress their political opponents.
