Biden LAUGHS OFF White House cocaine scandal and refuses to answer reporters' questions - while press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre suggests drugs found in West Wing belonged to a visitor
Daily Mail ^ | 7/05/23 | Emily Goodin

President Joe Biden laughed and again ignored questions about the cocaine found at the White House - as the administration tried to distance the first family and staff from the shocking discovery by suggesting it was a visitor.

Biden sat and watched reporters as they tried and failed to get his response to the drug scandal while he was in the Oval Office with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Wednesday.

Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre implied in her daily briefing that a member of the public left the Schedule A substance in a 'heavily-traveled area' of the West Wing - the office space that includes the Oval Office and an area for staff.

Despite repeated questions, she refused to get into 'hypotheticals' about the investigation and insisted the Secret Service would find the culprit who abandoned the drugs while Biden and son Hunter were in Camp David for the weekend

The cocaine was found on Sunday in small, zippered bag in a cubby hole in the lobby area of the West Wing, where visitors leave their cell phones and other electronics before entering the White House complex.

A member of White House staff must accompany guests who tour the West Wing, and the Biden administration tests new hires for illicit substances.

Jean-Pierre said Biden had been briefed on the matter, but the president didn't acknowledge questions shouted at him during the meeting with Kristersson.

He also didn't answer questions about it on Tuesday.

The Secret Service is conducting an investigation, including looking at security cameras and visitor logs.

The substance was found during a routine Secret Service sweep on Sunday evening and tested positive as a drug.

Jean-Pierre noted the lobby sees a lot of foot traffic on any given day.

I’m absolutely shocked they haven’t tried to hang it in Trump somehow. 🤔

The Blue blue-check Twitterati were blaming the coke on Donald Trump Jr.

I’m sure that this will be investigated every bit as thoroughly as the Supreme Court leaker was.

Laughter can mean many things. It may be nervous laughter due to the fact that the world and reality are closing in on him.

And when they find out it was Hunter……the coverup begins.

Hunter's dealer dropped by and left some free sample material.

They’ve got surveillance cameras in nearly every room of the WH. But I’m sure they’ll be every bit as successful finding the culprit as they were the SCOTUS leaker.

And it may have been planted to create trouble for Joe...to encourage him to think about retirement instead of a reelection campaign.

His handlers may have been dismayed at Joe's recalcitrance regarding their advice and decided to send a message to him.

Absolutely the most corrupt potus ever.
And nobody cares. Because that pile of human dung is no more corrupt than any other democRAT. And members of the Repugnant party just consider the whole charade to be business as usual.

Of course we can trust the federal agencies in charge of the investigation to be truthful to the public about their findings. /big SARC

Unless this is an "Immaculate Baggie", there are fingerprints on it.

How much Fentanyl was in the bag, mixed with the cocaine?

when they review the security tapes, they are more likely to produce evidence that Epstein hung himself than they are to identify the baggie dropper.

Anyone else would have expressed anger about the situation, and vowed that the person responsible would be found and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Instead, Biden thinks the whole thing is a big joke. That tells us he already knows who left it there.

“Hunter’s dealer dropped by...”

Your right on it IMO.

It’s called a “dead drop”.

Item is placed at a pre-agreed upon time and location by deliverer, then picked up later by receiving party...which keeps both parties from being in the same place at the same time in case location is being surveilled....I really believe that’s a plausible scenario.

To be fair.. it is possible the coke belongs to any number of leftards that visit the WH.

Celebs,Sports figures,fake journalist,illegals,drug dealers and/or FBI.

I doubt the WH has the sanctity it once had.
That all went out the window when homos had Sodomy in the Lincoln bedroom.
