If I check a suitcase full of money on my flight, or if I pass it through TSA security, I must consent to being searched (without a warrant) in order to fly.

It's not like I have a suitcase of money in my trunk and I've been pulled over by the police without cause and I can refuse to give consent.

Therefore I don't think the 4 amendment applies.

Isn't the argument for CAF that the mere possession of the large sum of money is just cause to confiscate it? That's why a time limit would work. DUring that time period, they could try to get a warrant. The judge would not give a warrant if that is the only evidence. Then the assets would be returned.
