Border guards do not need a search warrant to search you and your property at a crossing or point of entry. The search was perfectly legal.
"At a crossing" means with 100 miles of any border or port of entry. Which is about 67% of the country. It is complete bullshit of a policy.
67% of the population lives in that border area, not 67% of land area. But yeah, it’s silly.
I believe you're right. My mistake. I misremembered that factoid.
