Clearly the President does not 'know' about every interdiction
effort. No one claims that (well, no one sane anyway). Just as clearly, the President *does* set both the overall 'tone', and the direction such enforcement programs take. By default, the choice of AG sets this tone, irrespective of the presence/absence of any overt actions by POTUS. So, no need to be coy Larry. When you break the law, and get caught, suck it up and deal with it (whether it be politically motivated protest or not). This type of interdiction program does not solely affect lawbreakers however.

Upon searching his camping gear they came across a large jar half filled with brown "crystals" labeled Ovaltine. They confiscated the jar and, determined to find more, tore apart his airplane all over the tarmac, finding nothing. Because a Customs employee is a complete idiot, is it the President of the United States' fault? Did the President know about this overzealous inspection so we can blame him for it? You don't REALLY believe POTUS knew anything about this incident any more than my friend's Ovaltine bust, do you? They broke the law and law enforcement did its job. Larry W4CSC No, no, Scotty!
