Cocaine mystery remains unsolved as Biden leaves the White House

 By Jeff Mordock - The Washington Times - Wednesday, December 25, 2024

President Biden will end his term next month leaving behind one of the biggest White House whodunits of all time as the public and politicos still wonder who brought cocaine into the most secure building in the world.

Roughly 17 months after cocaine was discovered in a storage box near an entrance to the West Wing, the culprit remains a head-scratcher. And with the Secret Service closing the investigation in July 2023 after 11 days without interviewing a single suspect, security experts say it’s unlikely a culprit will ever be identified.

“I don’t think that we are ever going to hear anything about the cocaine ever again, unfortunately,” said Robert McDonald, a former supervisory Secret Service agent who worked in the presidential protection division. “It’s a sad state of affairs that the Secret Service chose to close the investigation as quickly as it did, and it’s a sad state of affairs that the administration did nothing to assist the investigation.”

Many questions remain unanswered.

• Why did the Secret Service close the investigation without a single interview?

• Why did the Secret Service “dispose” of the cocaine immediately after concluding the brief investigation?

• If someone could bring cocaine within feet of the president, what about other, more dangerous, powdery substances such as anthrax or fentanyl?

• Why did the White House in 2021 fire five staffers who failed a test for marijuana, which is legal in many states, yet seem disinterested in this case?

There's an "O'Keefe"-style sting video floating around in which an alleged White House staffer claims that the cocaine was actually Harris', that it was stashed by a staff member trying to get it to her but was nearly busted, and that Biden was torqued because Hunter had to take the blame.

Here it is, for what it's worth:

• Why did the Secret Service close the investigation without a single interview?

Because Jill told them to.

• Why did the Secret Service “dispose” of the cocaine immediately after concluding the brief investigation?

Because Jill told them to.

• If someone could bring cocaine within feet of the president, what about other, more dangerous, powdery substances such as anthrax or fentanyl?

The Bidens trust their close family members not to bring anthrax into the White House.

• Why did the White House in 2021 fire five staffers who failed a test for marijuana, which is legal in many states, yet seem disinterested in this case?

Because the five staffers who were fired did not have 'Biden' as their last name.


(btw, I believe the cocaine belonged to Ashley, not Hunter)

Could be.  The lack of Secret Service and media interest in that story is telling.  Maybe Trump will order the SS to release what it knows once he's in office?

There is a certain logic here.
