A legal perspective worth considering: No judge realistically has the authority to order a federal enforcement agency to stand down from enforcing federal law within any particular state or locality. The jurisdictional framework simply doesn't work that way. Federal law enforcement operates under federal mandate, and local courts can't override that fundamental structure. It's a distinction that matters when thinking through how different regulatory layers interact.

No, wait, this logic sounds like a backdoor for certain law enforcement agencies... Does federal authority really have that much power?

Ha, isn't that just the separation of powers? The local courts want to oversee federal law enforcement... Dream on.

Speaking of which, this theory sounds reasonable, but in actual practice, the tug-of-war between the federal government and local authorities has never stopped...

Federal authority is indeed more complicated than most people think... Local courts really can't do anything against federal law enforcement.

This theory sounds great, but in reality? Federal law enforcement agencies have also been targeted by local courts quite a few times.
