Bullcrap.

Police and other law enforcement have no authority to obey illegal
orders, regardless of who issues those illegal orders.

Police took an oath. But to "serve and protect"?

Certainly not the public -

If the police or other law enforcement are not required to "serve
and protect" then what is their duty and obligation?

They took an oath. Nothing in that oath requires any of them to obey
the whims of a wannabe dictator gone mad. So why do some do it?
