The administration first claimed to have no knowledge of gun running to Mexico, then claimed executive privilege over the documents, which can only be had for documents created by the administration. It is terrible.

When the guns can be tracked to the murder scene of a federal agent and border patrol officer it then goes really bad. That and those guns can be tracked to the deaths of several Mexicans, thereby prompting the lawsuits you referenced.
It is the perfect good cop/bad cop routine. But in this case, it went really wrong and they are trying really hard to cover their asses.
