What "information" could the WMF disclose that isn't already available

visible to volunteer CUs; deleted revisions and log entries are visible

There is plenty of reason to think the government would be interested in
Wikipedia access logs.
On the other hand, there's very little reason to believe an organization
when they say they haven't been turning over information under a top secret
order which they're not allowed to tell anyone about.

I think an official statement would be unnecessary and ill advised. It
doesn't affect Wikimedia projects, there is no reason to think it
does, and involving itself would be a mistake the WMF can and should
avoid.
