The discovery of cocaine near the West Wing of the White House!
But it looks like this is causing a political headache for ex Vice President Joe Biden (You know the guy who claims he's now President... HA!), leaving him exposed to criticisms from his GOP opponents while raising concerns about security at the complex.
“I’m sure it’s incredibly frustrating. This is also the struggle with any White House. You plan and you plan and you plan and you have perfect events and the perfect schedule and something unexpected is thrown into the mix,” said a Democratic strategist and aide in a previous administration. But seriously how un expected is this when you have coke/crack addicts in the white house?
The story has been dominating television news since the discovery Sunday inside a work area of the West Wing, which led to a precautionary closure of the White House complex, according to administration officials. The Secret Service confirmed Wednesday that the substance was cocaine.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre spent much of that day’s briefing fielding question after question about the discovery, with few additional details to share other than the Secret Service would “get to the bottom of this.”
Conservative media, however, opted to associate the cocaine found to the president’s son Hunter Biden, who has had a history of drug use, despite there being as they said "no such links" just pure dumb luck I guess? LOL That's some luck Hunter is there and so is "cocaine" I mean COME ON! Oh man this sort of comedy doesn't write itself folks...
Neither Hunter nor Joe Biden were at the White House that day so they claim as normal the media turned this into a chance to try and involve President Trump by saying that "meanwhile Trump, lashed out at the media for its coverage" because he questioned: “Does anybody really believe that the COCAINE found in the West Wing of the White House, very close to the Oval Office, is for the use of anyone other than Hunter & Joe Biden.” One source close to the administration, however, said it was handling the situation “very well.”
“It’s all political fodder right now, political bull s***,” the source said. LMAO! “I think it’s comical. Of course, you’re going to do what you need to do. Any time the opposition has a way to lean in and provide some type of antidote or response that’s going to get people wired up (Good... Nice choice of word there "Wired" when dealing with cocaine! HA!) they’re going to do so,” the source added.
When asked about Trump’s comments, the White House hammered into the president’s top political rival. “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 efforts,” said White House spokesman Andrew Bates. “There is a long list of areas where this administration succeeded for the middle class where our predecessor did not.”
Bates then tried to bring the conversation back to what the White House wants to focus on, namely their “Bidenomics” agenda that they have pushed out for the last two weeks. Which is laughable since it's all build on lies. So let's keep over looking the Biden's drug use and keep with more lies? OK!
The questions came as the president was headed to South Carolina for a speech on the economy and his investments in clean energy. On Wednesday, the president met with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson at the White House in a show of support for Sweden joining NATO by the deadline of the summit next week.
The White House has stressed that they are taking the investigation seriously but that it is in the hands of the Secret Service. The White House did not respond to a request for comment about whether dealing with the discovery of cocaine is distracting from other topics. “I respect there’s interest in this,” Bates told reporters Thursday.
Jean-Pierre repeatedly noted Wednesday that the drugs were found in a highly traveled area of the White House and that the president and his family including Hunter Biden were at Camp David at the time.
But even by Thursday, drawing such a conclusion kept the chatter going. Trump’s former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany broke with her former boss, saying there is “no way” the cocaine belonged to the younger Biden considering he wasn’t at the White House.
“There is no way, it is inconceivable to think cocaine could sit for a 72-hour period [at The White House], so I would rule him out at this point,” she said Thursday on Fox. Which she is wrong if he left it behind 3 days before and let's say he hid it somewhere to not have it on him but forgot to go get it as he left which is often the case with Hunter and leaving things he forgets about when high. LIKE A LAPTOP! I mean has she learned NOTHING from Hunter? She's proving to be some what Naïve in this matter. As coke/crackheads have lapses in memory and often forget where they stash something in emergency.
But wait there is more! Check out this video from FOX!
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) responded to the incident by writing a letter to the Secret Service, demanding details on whether anyone has access to the White House complex without passing through security and if the Secret Service has encountered illegal drugs in the past five years. House Republicans have already launched probes into Hunter Biden and whether he got preferential treatment during the investigation into his failure to pay taxes, and the GOP are likely to keep hammering away at the incident when they return to Washington next week.
Amid the public focus on the cocaine situation, Biden allies argue that the White House is doing the right thing by letting the Secret Service handle it. Because they done a great job so far by letting it get past them to start with right? Lol “Every president has faced a host of embarrassing events for which they’ve had no control. This just happens to be one such event,” said former Rep. Chris Carney (D-Pa.).
Carney, a senior policy adviser at Nossaman LLP, added that it’s the best move for the White House “to let the Secret Service do an unfettered investigation, make a report, and take any measures deemed necessary.”
Conservative media has used Hunter Biden’s frequent appearances at high-profile events at the White House as well as his traveling with the president as part of the argument for why the cocaine may have belonged to him. Biden allies say that connection was inevitable no matter the circumstances.
“I’m not sure there’s anything anybody could say who would prevent the conservative social media world from being whipped into this frenzy. No facts matter to them so what does one say,” said the Democratic strategist and aide in a previous administration. “Regardless of what the investigation shows at the end of the day, there are those who come from that world who will say something is being covered up.”
The White House has dodged questions over how transparent they would be about any conclusions to the investigation or if the culprit could ever be determined, exposing Biden to further GOP attacks as he heads into 2024. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who is trailing Trump in the Republican presidential primary, took a jab at Biden over the situation, but left his son Hunter Biden out of his remarks. “I’ve long believed, I think a lot of us have believed that the Biden administration’s been blowing it on a lot of fronts,” the presidential hopeful said. “But I guess it’s a little bit more literal than even I had thought.”
Now let's take a look back two years back when TRUMP suggested that Biden's performance was enhanced, and asked for him to get drug tested before the debates... Wonder how much of the drug use of Biden Trump knows but watch these videos below.
