The Secret Service found marijuana twice in the White House in 2022, long before cocaine was located in the West Wing.
The Secret Service revealed the information to members of Congress during a classified briefing on the investigation into cocaine found in the West Wing over the Fourth of July weekend, and confirmed the pot discoveries to Fox News Digital.
Possessing less than two ounces of marijuana is not a crime in Washington, D.C., but the substance is still not allowed on federal property — including the White House.
A spokesperson for the Secret Service told Fox News Digital that agents had found "small amounts of marijuana" on two separate occasions, in July and September last year.
"No one was arrested in these incidents, because the weight of the marijuana confiscated did not meet the legal threshold for federal charges or D.C. misdemeanor criminal charges, as the District of Columbia had decriminalized possession," the Secret Service spokesperson said. "The marijuana was collected by officers and destroyed."
The spokesperson told Fox News Digital that agents had found "less than .2 ounces of marijuana in both instances" and noted D.C.'s marijuana decriminalization.
