Why the FBI & Secret Service HAVE TO KNOW who brought cocaine to White House



In the past, Glenn Beck has been blessed with the opportunity to visit the White House on several occasions. During his visits, he jokes that he went “through everything but a rectal cavity search.”

“You take everything out of your pockets. You know you’re at the airport — it’s almost the same thing.”

So, why, Beck wonders, do the FBI and Secret Service have zero clue as to who was doing cocaine in the White House?

“The Secret Service is either not doing their job and cocaine got past them, or somebody that doesn’t have to go through that search brought the cocaine in,” Beck says.

Those who don’t have to be searched would include members of the first family — and one of those members has a long history of carelessly revealing his own drug abuse.

“You have some pretty serious evidence like oh, I don’t know, videotape of the President’s son weighing crack cocaine with a hooker,” Beck comments.

Beck believes the Secret Service and FBI are either extremely incompetent, or they’re covering for someone important. Either way, he thinks they should all be fired.

“At some point you need to say, ‘You know, you’re really bad at these ongoing investigations because you’ve had an ongoing investigation on Hunter Biden for how many years? And you still don’t know what everyone in the public knows.’”

As more information becomes obviously hidden from the public, more and more Americans are turning to conspiracies to explain the blatant lies.

“And they wonder why Americans are buying into conspiracies,” Glenn says, adding, “There’s a difference between a conspiracy theory and a conspiracy fact. I’m pretty sure with the FBI and the justice system we are now looking at conspiracy facts.”

Secret Service now facing an investigation over White House cocaine scandal: 'Unacceptable and a shameful moment'



The Secret Service is facing congressional scrutiny over the White House cocaine scandal.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer wrote Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle on Friday demanding to know how cocaine slipped through the Secret Service's security measures.

"The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the details surrounding the discovery of cocaine in the White House. This alarming development requires the Committee to assess White House security practices and determine whose failures led to an evacuation of the building and finding of the illegal substance," Comer wrote.

"This incident has raised additional concerns with the Committee regarding the level of security maintained at the White House," he added.

To assist with a congressional investigation, Comer requested Cheatle provide Congress with a briefing by next Friday.

"The presence of illegal drugs in the White House is unacceptable and a shameful moment in the White House's history," Comer said. "Congress funds White House security procedures, and the Secret Service has a responsibility to maintain effective safety protocols."

What is the background?

The cocaine was discovered on Sunday when President Joe Biden and his family were at Camp David. They departed last Friday and returned on Independence Day.

Initial reports indicated the illicit drug was discovered in the White House library on the ground floor. But the latest report indicates it was found near the West Executive entrance, a highly secure area not far from the Situation Room.

Congressional oversight is now crucial because law enforcement sources have repeatedly told reporters that despite a Secret Service investigation, which has included forensics, the person responsible for the cocaine may not be identified.

The potential that someone could have brought cocaine into the White House undetected is indeed mind-boggling.

No one enters the White House without the Secret Service knowing. Not only is the White House one of the most secure buildings in the world, staff members and visitors are subjected to a high-level of security. If someone or something tries to enter the White House but does not belong, the Secret Service knows about it.

With visitor logs and countless surveillance cameras, finding the culprit would be basic investigative work (at least it seems).

Comer's letter was sent two days after Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) sent Cheatle a series of questions about the cocaine scandal, including whether the agency would arrest the person responsible.

TheBlaze reached out to the Secret Service for comment, but the agency did not respond.

New details reveal White House cocaine was found in 'much more secure' area where 'normal people' can't go



The cocaine discovered at the White House was reportedly found in a "much more secure" area than previously reported.

When news of the discovery first broke, reports indicated the cocaine had been found in the White House library on the ground floor. Then, it was reported that it was discovered in the West Wing lobby, specifically a locker area where staffers and guests stow personal belongings.

But NBC News reported Thursday the cocaine was found near the West Executive entrance, which MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell said is a "much more secure place" not accessible to "normal people."

"It was found, by my observation, in a much more secure place — limited-access place, in that West Wing reception area," Mitchell explained. "It's still a frequently traveled place, but it's down near the Situation Room, right off Executive Drive, down below. And, normal people, average people just can’t get in there even with the entry for the northwest gate."

NBC News correspondent Kelly O'Donnell explained the area is also "where, for example, the vice president's vehicle is parked."

"The fact that it's close to the Situation Room is certainly notable," O'Donnell emphasized. "We had earlier been told that it was one level above, in, also a lobby area in the West Wing, closer to where the Oval Office is. This is down below."

Meanwhile, O'Donnell reported the Secret Service investigation, which includes forensics, may be concluded by as early as Monday.

She also relayed that sources are cautioning as to whether the individual responsible for the cocaine will ever be found.

That assertion, which has been repeated for two days, strains credulity, because the White House is one of the most secured buildings in the world. No one enters the White House without the Secret Service knowing. Thus, reverse-engineering who traversed through the area where the cocaine was found — a basic investigative tactic — certainly would not be on the Secret Service's list of difficult tasks.

WH issues odd response to layup question on whether cocaine could belong to Bidens: 'I don’t have a response to that'



The White House directly addressed accusations on Thursday that cocaine discovered at the White House belonged to the first family.

While en route to South Carolina, a reporter asked deputy press secretary Andrew Bates about former President Donald Trump's claim that the illicit drug belonged to President Joe Biden or first son Hunter Biden.

"Are you willing to say that that’s not the case, that they don’t belong to them?" the reporter asked.

A layup question, right? Wrong. For some odd reason, Bates did not outright deny the accusation but instead declined to answer the question — and publicly clear the Bidens — by citing the Hatch Act.

"I don’t have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act," Bates said.

— (@)

The Hatch Act restricts civil-service employees from engaging in partisan conduct. It's not clear how denying that the cocaine belonged to President Biden or Hunter Biden would have constituted a violation of the law. After all, Bates' very job is to serve as a spokesman for the president and White House.

What is even more confusing is that after citing the Hatch Act, Bates launched into a partisan diatribe slamming Trump — under guise of attacking the "last administration."

Later in the gaggle, Bates declined to promise the White House would be transparent about the cocaine investigation because he does not want "to engage on hypotheticals about it."

Anything else?

Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany, who worked in the Trump administration, explained Thursday why the cocaine cannot belong to the Bidens.

The answer? It's simple: they weren't there.

"For it to be Hunter Biden— he left on Friday, he was at Camp David. There is no way. It is inconceivable to think cocaine could sit for a 72-hour period," she explained. "So I would rule him out at this point."

Indeed, the Bidens departed for Camp David on Friday and returned to the White House on Tuesday. The cocaine, on the other hand, was discovered on Sunday.

Meanwhile, NBC News reported Thursday the cocaine was discovered in a different location than previously claimed. It was, according to the report, found in the White House's West Executive entrance, not the West Wing lobby.

More from NBC News:

The cocaine was found in an entrance area between the foyer and a lower-level lobby, the sources said. The entrance is near where some vehicles, like the vice president’s limo or SUV park. It is one floor below the main West Wing offices and the same floor as the Situation Room and a dining area.

The Secret Service is conducting forensic tests to help determine who is responsible for the cocaine. NBC reported that the investigation could conclude as early as next week.

But despite the White House being one of the most secured buildings in the world — no one enters or leaves without the Secret Service knowing about it — law enforcement sources told Politico the identity of the person responsible for the cocaine may never be found.

Watch Press Sec, PANICS When Asked About Cocaine Found at White House

Official claims we may never know who left cocaine at White House, one of world's most secure buildings



The White House is one of the most secure buildings on planet Earth. But officials close to the investigation claim the person responsible for leaving cocaine inside the West Wing may never be identified.

On Wednesday, the Secret Service said laboratory testing confirmed the white powdery substance discovered inside the White House on Sunday is cocaine, ABC News reported.

An official close to the investigation later told Politico that "it's gonna be very difficult for us" to discover who the cocaine belonged to "because of where it was" found.

"Even if there were surveillance cameras, unless you were waving it around, it may not have been caught," the official explained. "It's a bit of a thoroughfare. People walk by there all the time."

Preliminary reports claimed the illicit drug was discovered in the White House library on the ground floor. However, the Secret Service later disclosed that it was found in a "work area of the West Wing." Multiple media outlets have since reported that it was discovered in a locker area where staff members and guests store personal belongings during security screening.

Former U.S. Secret Service agent Don Mihalek told ABC News that White House staff, members of Congress, and "others who have that privilege" lead tours through the West Wing on the weekends.

The Secret Service did not say whether any tours took place this past weekend. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, however, confirmed at the press briefing on Wednesday that there were tours in the West Wing on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Jean-Pierre declined to offer additional comment or provide specifics.

President Joe Biden was at Camp David at the time of the discovery. He departed Washington on Friday and returned to the White House on Tuesday.

Why the White House's cocaine mystery is ‘ABHORRENT’



Last Sunday, Secret Service agents discovered a suspicious white powder in the White House. Yesterday, on July 4, it was confirmed that the substance in question was cocaine.

Who it belongs to, unfortunately, has not yet been confirmed.

Naturally, many are quick to point to Hunter Biden, given the entanglement of scandals he’s been caught in.

But Glenn Beck isn’t so sure it’s Hunter this time.

“There are a lot of creeps in the White House that might be doing cocaine,” he says.

Stu, on the other hand, isn’t convinced.

“I think just from the sloppiness of the operation, Hunter had to be involved in some way. This would be the perfect statement right after getting a deal for all his crimes,” he says.

Regardless, the White House refuses to “divulge all of the details because of their investigation, which will take probably twelve years,” Glenn sarcastically adds.

“These people lie all the time,” though, Stu says.

“If Hunter was doing it off the counter” and “they all caught him,” they would inevitably come up with some “exact excuse. … There’s no reason to believe anything this White House says,” he continues.

But there’s another question to consider: Isn’t the White House one of the most secure and heavily monitored buildings in the entire country?

“There has to be a camera pointed at the place where this cocaine was found. Rewind the footage!” Stu argues.

“Come on, Stu. They’re not invading people’s privacy by putting a camera in the places of the White House where the tours go through all the time. Why would you have a camera there?” Glenn mockingly asks.

But in all seriousness, of course there are cameras in public areas of the White House, which raises the question: Was the cocaine found in a private area that was not under video surveillance?

This would totally contradict the White House’s statement that the substance was most likely dropped by a tourist.

Because if it did belong to a tourist, there should already be security footage to prove it.

“This nonsense that [the White House is] leaking out,” Stu says, “indicates they know it was in the private area, and they know it was something bigger than some tourist dropping it.”

“Maybe this is why Joe occasionally seems focused,” he laughs.

“I’m not willing to rule it out,” Glenn chuckles.
