In cases of Inherent Contempt, the Sgt. at Arms and deputies arrest and detain the defendant. I can find no source where US Marshals were used legally, unless perhaps they were deputized and acting as instruments of the Congress, but again I found no source. In any case, it’s been close to 90 years since the Congressional power to arrest and detain someone found in Inherent Contempt has been used.

In Civil and Criminal contempt cases, due process through the executive and judicial branches applies.

I refer the conservative Justices to the legal principle of Don't Start No Shit, Won't Be No Shit. LudwigPastorius May 2022 #1
Pretty sure your principle has no legal weight behind it. LiberatedUSA May 2022 #3
