The White House is apparently giving up on finding who is responsible for leaving an illicit drug in the executive mansion last weekend. At least, that’s what Politico reported based on the testimony of an unnamed law enforcement official.
“White House cocaine culprit unlikely to be found: Law enforcement official,” the headline reads.
A snarky subhead noted, “Lines may have been snorted and crossed,” but “it’s possible we won’t know by whom.”
Officials evacuated the White House on Sunday evening after a white powdery substance was reportedly discovered in a “work area” in the West Wing (the location later changed to “near the Situation Room”). Dispatches from the emergency crews at the scene quickly confirmed that the “unknown item” was a bag of cocaine.
“We have a yellow bar stating cocaine hydrochloride,” a D.C. firefighter said in a radio communication at 8:49 p.m. on Sunday.
The White House is supposedly equipped with state-of-the-art security that would make finding the druggie who lost his illegal loot incredibly easy.
White House staff and visitors are required to go through multiple security checkpoints before entering areas like the West Wing. Some of these screening areas are even equipped with dogs that are trained to alert to illegal substances and items. Where metal detectors and cameras may fail, swarms of Secret Service and White House visitor logs are designed to prevail.
Against a bag of cocaine, however, Politico’s inside man suggests all of these measures are moot.

Good points.
Zackly. They insist they know everything that happened in the Capitol on January 6th. But nothing about a dimebag of cocaine that turns up inside the White House.
Psst, hey Secret Service, the name of the perp rhymes with “Schlunter Riden.”
Everyone in the White House needs to be fired if they think we are that stupid.
The First Family is despicable! They have no moral authority. They are an embarrassment.
They planted a little baggie of cocaine because they didn’t want to talk about a mass shooting in Philly. Drugs in the WH I’m shocked.
Sign that the Secret Service is in a state of revolt? Even men who have sworn an oath have their limits.
👍👍👍👍👍
You need more help?? you can buy ythe test kits at CVS.
We are in a civil war, folks and lawfare is the democrat party’s favorite weapon. They only apply the law to their enemies and not apply it to their friends or themselves.
By weapons and ammo, folks.
That’s a great title. Would be good on a tee shirt.
It could have been fentanyl, I wonder if hazmat suits/PPE were employed during its removal. That would have been noticed, hence the reveal.
scrambling, some how the janitor or the house keeper will get blamed
<><> the WH “knows everything” that happened in the Capitol on January 6th
<><>”they know” every single classified document Trump took to Mar a Lago
<><>”they know” Slowjoe got 81 million votes in 2020
<><>”they know” Moms for Liberty is a hate organization
<><>”they know” crackhead whoremonger Hunter is a “good boy”
<><>”they know” they are going to win in 2024
But they know “nothing” about a bag of cocaine that turns up inside the White House.
This is the Clinton Playbook on steroids.
Slowjoe will just hang onto that stupid grin and not say anything; Cocaine in the WH never happened.
And when Hunter finally admits the cocaine is his, that’ll be “old news.”
Nothing to see.....just move on.
“And when Hunter finally admits the cocaine is his, that’ll be ‘old news’.”
Another of their favorites is “been debunked” when it hasn’t been debunked.
Yeah.......good point.
Translation: "Hunter is shown on camera stashing the blow and his fingerprints are all over the dime baggie, but we've been ordered to stand down."
Experts baffled by White House invoking Hatch Act to dodge Hunter cocaine question: ‘ridiculous’

Experts were baffled by the Biden administration invoking the Hatch Act when asked whether President Biden or his son owned the cocaine found at the White House.
The culprit behind the White House’s July snowstorm has yet to be found, and the Biden administration isn’t answering whether the president or Hunter Biden owned the Independence Day cocaine dominating the headlines this week.
White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates was asked during a Thursday press gaggle whether the president can deny that he or his son owned the cocaine found at the White House – a charge leveled by former President Donald Trump.
Bates invoked the Hatch Act — legislation that prohibits federal employees from talking about or using federal resources for campaign purposes — to dodge the white question on former President Trump’s claim that the Colombian bam-bam belonged to the president or his son.
“I don’t have a response to that, because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act,” Bates responded. “What I will say is that I have noticed there does seem to be some increasing frustration coming from that corner in general, and I think it is probably rooted in the contrast between their substantive policy records.”
Bates then compared Biden’s policy record to his predecessor’s record.
Attorney Bradley P. Moss told Fox News Digital he is “candidly at a loss as to why Mr. Bates believes the Hatch Act is relevant with respect to addressing that question.”
“I could envision other legitimate bases for declining to respond, such as respecting the integrity of the ongoing investigation, but references to the Hatch Act seem misplaced,” Moss continued.
