Sure, they just make them an offer they can’t refuse.

They can do anything they want. They're the government. With a subpoena, it's even quasi-legal.
I always make the point to my Democrat brother in law - "Who's the only organization in the world that can take everything you have, or ever hope to have, and get away with it, and suffer NO consequences? The Mafia? NO! It's the government. And there's nothing you can do about it."
He regularly ignores me, of course.

Yes they can with a subpoena if they want. Also they can subpoena mail order billing documents (ammo, reloading, and firearms parts Internet sales).
Think insurgent warfare in the US that will dwarf anything you might have seen in Iraq.

Using FOIA, the Roanoke Times newspaper can publish the list of CWP holders.
So, “yes!”

No, Clinton already tried. using the IRS audit that happened in the early 90’s. NRA said “hell no”, and eventually won. Now, if F-troop, or a group like that showed up ...

A jackboot gets you past a lot of closed doors and a rifle butt to the head gets you through a multitude of passwords.
For everything else, there’s your pet judge in his little robes dancing to the music of the fedgov organ grinders.
