Did the “resistance” in question take the form of saying “nooo don’t”? If the governor of the state doesn’t want them there, they have their own national guard to facilitate that.
“This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.”
Yeah! Speak up so that…so that…hmm. Maybe so that people with more power and authority than themselves individually deploy their power and authority on behalf of the people? Like some sort of… representative… Intriguing concept
It consisted of suing the federal government and getting an injunction from a judge saying they can’t be deployed. They are there. Legally they aren’t supposed to be doing anything. Beyond that, I’m not sure what you want the governor to do. Rally his own private militia to fight them off? If he did that it would literally justify their presence there and eliminate any legal restrictions.

I’m assuming it means 500 people.
