Best case is that every federal department and agency was ordered to use part of its budget to purchase ammo, to try and keep it out of the hands of private citizens. Remember even Social Security Admin purchased ammo.
The worst case: the Federal Govt really does have some type of plan to weaponize a domestic army of bureaucrats, drawing from created armed units, against noncompliant citizens.
Neither scenario is worthy of trust or respect.
