Either repeal the 4th amendment (and maybe the rest of the bill of rights for good measure) or fire the TSA and stop the border patrol's random searching. There used to be rule of law in this country.

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

Stepping across the border or onto an airplane is not "probable cause".
