<h1>Threatened federalization under Insurrection Act to deploy troops against protests, with looming TRO on immigration enforcement and JAG reassignments</h1> The primary legal issue is the threatened invocation of the Insurrection Act to federalize forces and deploy the military for domestic law enforcement, which would authorize use of federal troops or federalized National Guard to suppress ongoing protests and override state governors' control. A second issue is pending federal litigation alleging constitutional violations (free speech and other rights) from the federal immigration enforcement surge; a judge has set a deadline for the Justice Department to respond to a request for a temporary restraining order, which could impose immediate limits on enforcement tactics if granted. A third operative change is the Pentagon's identification and temporary assignment of JAG officers to serve as special assistant U.S. attorneys, which reallocates military legal personnel to assist federal prosecutions.
