Question for the freepers out there. I thought Customs only had authority to search (without a warrant) if the plane was coming in from a different country. True?
If not, wouldn't the Customs folks require a warrant?

His plane arrived from a foreign country.

Another article I read stated that Rush's plane was coming in from out of the country.

The plane, a private jet, arrived from the Dominican Republic. That is, as you may know, a foreign country. It's also a country with drug activity, and is a destination for sex tourism.
So...Customs was not out of line in checking bags from a plane arriving from there.
Sounds like Rush was engaging in some fornication down there in the Dominican Republic. That's his right, of course.
