does the militia clause in art 1 section 8

allow us to federalize the right wing militias and deploy them to harmless locations?

Nope, militias can't be forced into governmental service. The National Guard can, that's why it's not a militia.
no?

Article I, Section 8, Clause 15:

[The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions; . . .

The states as well as Congress may prescribe penalties for failure to obey the President’s call of the militia. They also have a concurrent power to aid the National Government by calls under their own authority, and in emergencies may use the militia to put down armed insurrection.1 The Federal Government may call out the militia in case of civil war; its authority to suppress rebellion is found in the power to suppress insurrection and to carry on war.2 The act of February 28, 1795,3 which delegated to the President the power to call out the militia, was held constitutional.4 A militiaman who refused to obey such a call was not employed in the service of the United States so as to be subject to the article of war, but was liable to be tried for disobedience of the act of 1795.

I'd bet good money that those good ole boys can outshoot almost all LEOs. You don't need to be a lean, mean fighting machine to shoot accurately.
if an army marches on its stomach, the maga militia are ready for parade.

Are you not aware of the 2nd Amendment section and the constant fighting over the wording? A yes or no will suffice.

And please stop the dumb American childish clichés.
