with = because of?

Because of the intervention of a cabinet secretary or White House, the very power for drug approval is at the risk of being abused?

Context:

THE unilateral decision last week by Kathleen Sebelius, the secretary of health and human services, to block the Plan B One-Step contraceptive pill from being sold to adolescents without a prescription is shocking in more ways than one.

Not only was it unexpected, but for the first time in American history, a cabinet secretary — and by extension, a president — has overruled a drug-approval decision by the Food and Drug Administration.

The precedent risks placing the real power for drug approval not just with a cabinet secretary, but with the White House itself. The only solution, then, is to make the F.D.A. truly independent. Americans have already done this, through the Federal Reserve, to protect our money supply from political meddling; it’s time to do it for drugs.

I'm sure (at least I hope!) you didn't intend for your post to come across as astonishingly rude and demanding, but it did!

Thank you for the comment.

But I didn't mean to be rude. Because I didn't know "wake up and rise" would be so coarse in your ears. So it is more important than the thread itself to know the fact that may help avoid future misunderstanding.

I appreciate your response.

Do you know the word "purview"?

Placing it "with" = Placing it in the purview of.
