The DOJ has admitted 18 USC 1715, the federal ban on mailing handguns, is unconstitutional, citing Bruen, Heller, and McDonald. However, they are seeking dismissal rather than a definitive ruling, which the speaker argues is a "shell game" to retain leverage.

The speaker emphasizes that rights should not be subject to executive discretion.
