White House Cocaine Story Takes Another Bizarre Twist as It Changes Again
Red State ^ | 07/03/2023 | Nick Arama

Posted on 07/04/2023 9:06:08 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

When we first heard the story of a hazmat situation and the White House being evacuated on Sunday, we were told by the media that they’d found cocaine hydrochloride “near the White House.” Then it was described as being on the White House complex. That could be anywhere, including on the grounds. It was also described as “cocaine hydrochloride,” with suggestions it could be an anesthetic.

Then came the report that it was in the White House library, which is on the ground floor of the executive mansion, according to the Washington Post.

But now the Secret Service is contradicting that report about the library. Newsmax reporter James Rosen said that according to multiple officials with the Secret Service, contrary to the prior reports, the cocaine was found “in a work area in the West Wing,” not in the White House library, and that it was in a “baggie” when discovered, not loose or concealed.

BREAKING: Multiple officials at @USSecretService tell @NEWSMAX that contrary to more recent published reports, the cocaine was found “in a work area in the West Wing,” not in the @WhiteHouse library—and that the cocaine was “in a baggie” when discovered, not loose or concealed.

— James Rosen (@JamesRosenTV) July 4, 2023

“The item was not found in the residence or in the library, so I don’t know where that came from,” a source told Rosen. “It was found in the West Wing in a work area, which is quite a distance from the mansion.”

It gets even more interesting. According to the new report, it was in an area where you would have top aides to Biden or guests.

The substance was found in a common area of the West Wing, which houses the Oval Office and offices of some of the president’s top aides and support staff. A senior law enforcement official told CBS News the substance was found in a storage facility in a cubby routinely used by White House staff and guests to store cellphones.

So if top aides or guests of Joe Biden or his staff stash their stuff there, then the question is: Who put it there? This probably kills the “some random person from a tour brought it in” theory if it was found in that work area location. One would have to imagine that there are cameras and security all over the building. Who is bringing cocaine to the White House? Where are the cameras and the logs of the people who it could have been?

As we reported earlier, the left was pushing a ridiculous talking point that it could be Donald Trump Jr. who hasn’t been there in two and a half years. So that just didn’t make a lot of sense. Of course, they did that because they wanted to skip over any more logical conclusions: that someone connected to Joe Biden brought it in.

Hunter Biden has been in and around the White House for the past couple of weeks, attending a state dinner on June 22 and then going to Camp David for the past two weekends with his father. That sparked a lot of speculation from some since Hunter Biden is a recovering addict.

The Secret Service is reportedly looking into who brought it in, but given the way the Biden team works, I wonder if we’re going to get a real investigation here. If they don’t want to tell us, watch for the FOIA requests coming fast and furious because some reporters will undoubtedly dig for an answer to this one.

Many sensitive or classified govt. areas prohibit smartphones or any device with a recording capability. Groups of small lockboxes often are placed outside of such areas. An individual places items in a box, locks it with the key that’s in the lock, then takes the key with him/her into the secure area. There’s nearly a 100% probability surveillance devices are trained on the lockboxes in the West Wing where the cocaine was found. The SS already knows who is the culprit (Crackhead).

White House guessing game begins after cocaine found in library forced Hazmat evacuation - two days after recovering drug addict Hunter Biden was on the property

Secret Service found a suspicious white powder during a routine round at the White House on Sunday that tested positive for cocaine
Substance was found in the library, which is open to public White House tours

Biden was not there at the time of discovery, but he and son Hunter were at the White House on Friday before departing for a long weekend at Camp David
By KATELYN CARALLE, U.S. POLITICAL REPORTER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

PUBLISHED: 07:29 EDT, 4 July 2023 | UPDATED: 16:04 EDT, 4 July 2023

President Joe Biden, his son Hunter and members of the first family arrived back at a White House mired in controversy on Tuesday after cocaine found by Secret Service agents sparked an evacuation and Hazmat situation.

A dispatch call reviewed by DailyMail.com reveals a preliminary test found that the white powder discovered on Sunday tested positive for cocaine – and led to emergency services shutting down 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

The Secret Service has now launched an investigation to track down how the substance got there and who was responsible for the breach.

The discovery came two days after recovering drug addict Hunter, 52, was last seen at the White House as he headed to Camp David with his father for the long holiday weekend.

Trolls are speculating that the president’s addict son is the source of the illegal substance.

However, The White House library is part of the public tour experienced by hundreds daily, meaning there could be multiple suspects. It is also two floors below the first family’s living quarters.

While the dispatch recording clearly says ‘library,’ a source familiar with the incident told DailyMail.com that the substance was not found inside the executive mansion but was discovered in a ‘work area’ in the west wing of the White House.

Hunter Biden was at the White House Friday before departing for a long holiday weekend to Camp David with President Joe Biden.

CELEBRITIES WHO USED ILLICIT DRUGS AT THE WHITE HOUSE
Snoop Dog: The rapper known for his love and frequent use of ganja said in July 2014 that the year prior he smoked weed in a White House bathroom.

Willie Nelson: Musician said he rolled and smoked a joint on the White House roof when Jimmy Carter was president. He said he ‘should have been’ afraid of getting caught, but wasn’t at the time.

Gary McLain: The former collegiate basketball player for Villanova said he was ‘wired on cocaine’ when meeting President Ronald Reagan in the Rose Garden after his team won the NCAA title. McLain wrote in Sports Illustrated more than a decade ago: ‘The cocaine had me floating in my own private world…I was standing a couple of feet behind [Reagan], looking in his hair, thinking... thoughts like, I could push him in the head, just a little tap, and make news across the world. That’s how high I was.’’

Erkan Mustafa: British actor smoked weed in the White House while visiting the U.S. to promote then-First Lady Nancy Reagan’s ‘Just Say No’ initiative. Mustafa claimed in a 1998 report he and others from hit British TV show Grange Hill smoked marijuana and bumped cocaine in the White House when they were flown to D.C. to promote the anti-drug campaign.

Honorable Mention – Grace Slick: The musician and painter intended – but failed – to spike Richard Nixon’s tea with acid. She detailed in a 2011 interview that she was invited to the White House by First Lady Tricia Nixon and planned to spike his tea but wasn’t let into the premises due to a mix-up with her last name.

A Secret Service statement confirms this.

‘On Sunday evening, the White House complex went into a precautionary closure as officers from the Secret Service Uniformed Division investigated an unknown item found inside a work area,’ the statement reads.

‘The DC Fire Department was called to evaluate and quickly determined the item to be non-hazardous,’ it continues. ‘The item was sent for further evaluation and an investigation into the cause and manner of how it entered the White House is pending.’

Hunter arrived back in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday for the annual Independence Day celebration on the South Lawn. In tow was wife Melissa Cohen and their unhappy son Beau, 3, who was crying as his father carried him to the car at Fort McNair to head back to the White House.

U.S. Secret Service is conducting further testing to confirm if the substance is the illegal drug.

He also said that President Joe Biden was not in the executive mansion when the substance was discovered.

Authorities are investigating how the cocaine got into the White House.

Pro-Trump Republican Rep. Jim Banks tweeted: ‘They never found cocaine in the Trump White House!’

‘The Bidens are unfit to live in the White House!’ he wrote in a follow-up tweet with a link to a story on the cocaine found in the mansion.

Meanwhile, far-right Newsmax host Robb Schmitt said during a report on the cocaine discovery: ‘It wouldn’t be a thumpin’ July 4th weekend without Hunter Biden ripping lines off of a bust of Teddy Roosevelt.’

‘Cocaine was found at the White House and Hunter Biden currently lives at the White House. FBI has no clue who it belongs to. Anyone want to help them?’ a Twitter journalist with nearly 200k followers wrote.

A uniformed member of the USSS found the white powder substance while conducting a routine round through the White House.

Discovery of the illegal drug led to a brief evacuation of the White House.

The D.C. fire department team that responded to the call determined the substance did not pose a threat – and the recording of a dispatch from the fire crew confirmed testing found it was cocaine.

‘We have a yellow bar saying cocaine hydrochloride,’ a firefighter with the D.C. department of hazardous materials radioed at 8:49 on Sunday, according to the Post.

‘Bag it up and take it out,’ the firefighter instructed.

The library where the cocaine was found is right off the White House visitor entrance and is part of the tour of the mansion, which means the room sees a lot of foot traffic from members of the public. It is also located two levels below the first family’s residential quarters

Some Republicans on Twitter are questioning whether the cocaine really did come from Hunter – noting possible other sources.

‘I am not ruling out possible members of the White House press,’ conservative radio host Mark Levin tweeted in response to the discovery of cocaine.

Matt Wallace, who has 1.1 million followers asserted: ‘The Cocaine found at the White House is not from Hunter Biden.’

‘The real story is actually much worse than that! Many of Joe Biden’s Top Staff regularly use Cocaine and other Hardcore Drugs. The cleaning crews are tasked with hiding all traces but this weekend was especially bad!’

Hunter Biden, who is known to struggle with substance abuse, was at the White House on Friday before departing with his father to Camp David for the July 4 holiday weekend.

The president and his son maintain that he has kicked his addiction.

Most recently, the younger Biden reached a plea deal with Justice Department prosecutors to avoid jail time after lying on a federal form to purchase a firearm. He checked a box claiming that he did not use and was not addicted to illegal substances – a fact that would disqualify him from buying the gun.

The form contradicting the timelines and claims made in Hunter Biden’s own memoir.

Biden critics and conservative decried Hunter’s plea deal, claiming that anyone other than the president’s son would receive jail time for the same offense.

The deal also saw Hunter plead guilty to two tax misdemeanors.

Listening to Dan Bongino who worked in the White House as a member of the SS, agents cover up all sorts of illegal acts committed by the people they protect or their friends & guests. Not much chance we’re going to know who did it (Hunter “Crackhead” Biden).

EDITED Rumors circulated in April that Hunter Biden was hiding out at the White House to avoid being served with court papers by the mother of his love child.

In his memoir “Beautiful Things,” Hunter detailed his years-long battle with cocaine addiction, which he claims intensified after his brother Beau’s death in 2015.......which the Bidens celebrate usually when an election looms or Biden has a political problem........to milk the “sympathy vote.”

Unasked, and uncalled for, the Bidens recently celebrated the 50th anniversary of his first wife’s death......the first time Biden brought up her death as president.

Many photos, text messages and other communications revealing his cocaine abuse ended up on the first son’s now infamous laptop, including recently surfaced images of Hunter smoking crack behind the wheel of his car in a residential Arlington, Va., neighborhood in the summer of 2018.

Recently, images surfaced of Hunter smoking crack behind the wheel of his father’s Corvette in 2018 in a residential Arlington, Va., neighborhood.

Last month, the first son reached a probation-only plea deal with the Justice Department for tax misdemeanors and entered into a pretrial diversion agreement for lying on a federal gun-purchase form about his drug use.

If a judge approves of the deal, Hunter Biden will likely serve two years of probation and be barred from owning a firearm again.

He also must remain sober........and drug free.......or the plea deal is a no-go.

Like Seth Rich’s killer, and the person who left the pipe bombs on January 6th 2021; we’ll somehow never know who the owner of that baggie of coke was.

This, folks, describes the secure area outside a SCIF.
