during the pre-election frenzy, the airspace around the Macarron airport was, as usual, closed to all traffic during Air Force one's approach and departure.  Despite that, 4 separate aircraft entered that air space, all private aircraft flown by commercial and private pilots.  They were rapidly intercepted by USAF and Navy Jets, escorted to the Jean airport south of town, required to land and cited by the FAA.

??  I was not aware that there was an airport at Jean.  Are you sure they weren't diverted to Henderson?
