There is a process to take a passport back, and that requires a legal hearing and due process. Law enforcement cannot take one gratuitously as part of a search warrant unless they have good reason to believe it was part of some criminal activity, which in this case it clearly wasn't.
Wrong! You need one to enter another nation. In fact, some countries are pretty pedantic about it. Ever enter Japan? They photograph you separately from checking your passport, and you have to fill out several forms. They want a blank page in your passport too, or they won't accept it.
No, it didn't any more than it did for them to rifle through Meliana's wardrobe.
The "US Government" wasn't the legal agency searching, the FBI was. There are laws and regulations about making searches. The reason the DoJ doesn't want the affidavit released is because it almost certainly contains stuff that is damning to their case and the issuance of that warrant. If there wasn't, they wouldn't had specifically sought out a Trump hating magistrate of low level to go through for this warrant. They could have gotten it from a federal judge if it were on the up and up.
If you don't have it in your hand, you can't use it. That requires a hearing and a legal reason to take it from someone. Normally this is done in criminal hearings where the person is a flight risk.
On demand means that they just have to demand it, and you have to hand it over. I have been through that process a hundred times. They demand it, and I hand it over. There is no hearing. Due process is any officer of the government demanding it. It belongs to the US Government, so it would take due process not to present it on demand... Not the reverse.
Starting about 20 years ago, you needed a passport to enter the USA. Before that, you could enter the USA with just a drivers license, or some other piece of ID. It was not always easy, but it was possible. Many other countries have not started enforcing such severe rules.
The FBI is part of the US Government, so is allowed to take possession of US Government property.
They had that covered with their search warrant.

DOJ says his passports were stuffed in a drawer in his desk along with top secret government documents.
They temporarily confiscated the passports and contents of the drawer because they are evidence. Evidence that Trump knew he had top secret docunents in his possession, that he knew they were improperly secured, and that was reviewing them. With this evidence, Trump can't blame his staff for misplacing government secrets.
