Cocaine discovery in White House leads to nowhere

Cocaine discovery in White House leads to nowhere

The discovery of a bag of cocaine in the White House has sparked much speculation, but no clear answers.

The mainstream media reported that a bag of the illicit substance was found in one location, only to change its story soon after. It is not clear whether it was found in a cubby used by White House visitors or a work area near the White House’s Situation Room. Then there was a report that it was found near the work areas of Vice President Kamala Harris.

For example, Politico said that the bag was found in a “highly trafficked” area by visitors and staff, which allegedly would make it near impossible to find who brought the cocaine into the White House.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told a White House press member that it was an “irresponsible” question to ask whether it was one of the Biden family members who snuck cocaine into the White House.

Former Obama official and current Biden national security advisor Jake Sullivan blamed a construction worker for bringing in the bag of cocaine, adding another confusing turn in the scandal.

Yet no confirmation of the basic details is a telltale sign that the Biden White House is not serious about finding the culprit.

Conservatives said that this scandal is full of excuses by the Biden administration to deflect criticism and delay the investigation. Former Secret Service agent and conservative political commentator Dan Bongino said that “only family” could sneak in cocaine, not any White House staff, government officials or visitors.

Some conservatives have pointed out that President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, is a known cocaine addict and was in the White House for official events throughout the week. Meaning, Hunter could have been the culprit all along.

It is safe to say that if a bag of cocaine was found in the White House during the Trump administration, the media would be clamoring for answers of who brought the bag into one of the most secure locations in American government. But with Biden, he gets a free pass from the press.
