Re:DHS seems to have morphed (Score 1)

One of the sub-agencies of DHS is CBP (Customs & Border Protection) and it is now CBP's job (formerly US Customs who is now part of CBP) to clear shipments of incoming goods into the country. If a shipping container full of SpongeBob SquareShorts toys comes in and doesn't have the proper supporting license to sell using a trademarked item, it is rightfully denied entry. All you have is someone who didn't do their homework (If that is what really happened) It is *not* an expansion of powers because the former US Customs agency already had this power. You may now return to your previous level of paranoia.
