Poor Secret Service, can’t tell who did it do to the political shake out and thus looks Incompetent when for whatever excuse they use to explain the drugs were unable to be traced. A lose lose situation.

We will see if the Hatch Act excuse holds.... 🧐

legislation that prohibits federal employees from talking about or using federal resources for campaign purposes

🧐 wouldn’t that apply to Trump and all the charges they have dreamed up against him?

Hunter has so much cocaine in his system that he sweated, dripped it into a plastic bag and it evaporated leaving behind a white powder.

This is easy to explain. White house staffers have decided that if they all act like they’re on drugs, it won’t be so easy to figure out which one of them stashed that bag of cocaine.

Hatch act? easily explained. He’d be using his government position to campaign for the cocaine vote.

What’s really ridiculous is that every word that emanates from the White House Press Secretary is said for political advantage and is the essence of campaigning. If they really cared about the Hatch Act, that position wouldn’t exist.

If the FBI cannot be trusted, why should the public trust the Secret Service?

That could have been a shrewd answer.
Consider that Trump made the allegation; Trump is campaigning for Federal office.
There are lots of other answers that could have been used to say “no comment”.
Of course, Bates is no KJP. One would have to work to be as stoopid as her.

The guy on Outnumbered on Fox (saw a brief soundbite) said there is always one Secret Service agent sitting directly in front the people passing that famous cubby and they definitely saw who did this.

And if it were anthrax or another dangerous powder this would have been a danger to the President and staff.

He said they know who it was but won’t allow us to find out.

What a country.

Gif....

Biden: Hunter, you have always been like a son to me. It looks immature for you to play party games putting your face into confectioner’s powdered sugar. People will make fun of you.

Someone needs to drag out the Rick James meme on this one.

Some DOJ azhos “dismissed” Hunter’s felony gun violation because he promised to be a good boy. I guess they won’t try too hard trying to find out if the younger pervert needs to be charged again with the felony gun violation.

Maybe they know that it is Hunter’s cocaine, and this is the only defense they have.

If both Biden and Hunter were not involved, they would just throw a underling under the bus.
There is far more going on than just a bag of coke.
They don’t want the world to know that Biden is doing drugs too.

Maybe the fat lady is warming up; can see Pelosi, Schumer, and the black representative ( his close friend) from South Carolina) walking over to the WH and telling Biden it’s time to go.

Lindsey Graham is suspicious that it’s Russian Cocaine, and it requires a six year “Investigation.”
