The lawlessness and violence is overwhelmingly coming from ICE.

This is not a situation in which deploying the military is necessary.
And really, in this case...
The military would be deployed not for the purpose of quelling violence and lawlessness, but for the purpose of enabling the violence and lawlessness that we are seeing from ICE.

That is something that the administration has argued in other cases.
It is a longstanding position of the executive branch that there is such an inherent constitutional power.
