I think that the only exemptions that can apply is if the State Government requests it, and I doubt that's going to happen.

If its considered to be in support of the Insurrection Act which is what happened in LA

Or if its a law enforcement situation that revolves around NBC materials.

I can't see him being able to use any of the above to move federal forces in that involve the military unless he can convince the Governor of the State and he's already said he doesn't want the national guard in Chicago.
I don't have the foggiest idea, I'm just reporting what he inferred. Something along the lines of 'clean it up or I will' in one of his ridiculous meandering interviews.

And he seems like he intends to do what he says he will do. Given his first week's work.
