The Governor of Arkansas had ordered the ANG to stop the forced integration. Eisenhower activated them to put them under his command instead of Arkansas's command and ordered the 101st to make sure they complied. The problem is the 101st isn't guard, and thus he didn't have the legal authority to deploy them on American soil. But that didn't stop him since it was in service to the goal of harming White Americans.
What I've heard recently was that Dwight ordered the NG to return to their barracks to stand down & play cards until it's through.
Then somehow deputized actual service units to do the dirty work.
