Maybe invoking the Insurrection Act.
But most US corporate media seem to have forgotten that deploying National Guard to Washington and other blue cities was never needed.

Well that worked so well under LNP Abbott, Morrison governments. Now Albanese Labor Govt having a go.
Cut guts out of skills and knowledge of public service in every industry, employed more expensive consultants who robbed Australia blind, offshored profits, and put the boot into the people.

This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.
