JUST IN: Trump Hints At New Investigation Into Joe And Hunter Biden
President Donald Trump has suggested that either former President Joe Biden or his son, Hunter Biden, may have been responsible for a small bag of cocaine discovered in the White House almost two years ago. Recently, President Trump pledged to reopen the investigation, reigniting perusal over an incident that federal authorities had previously deemed inconclusive.
In July 2023, a small plastic bag containing cocaine was discovered inside the White House, prompting an immediate evacuation and a subsequent investigation by the United States Secret Service. The substance was found in a storage cubby near a public entrance to the West Wing, an area frequently accessed by visitors and staff.
At the time of the discovery, President Biden and his family were at Camp David. The Secret Service apparently conducted a thorough investigation, including advanced fingerprint and DNA analysis, but were unable to identify a suspect due to the lack of physical evidence.
The case was closed after eleven days without any charges filed. However, earlier this month, President Trump announced plans to reopen the investigation, suggesting potential involvement of Joe Biden or his son, Hunter.
In an interview released Friday with The Spectator, Trump was asked by Ben Domenech, “So… who actually left the cocaine in the White House?”
“Well, either Joe or Hunter,” Trump replied. “Could be Joe, too.”
“OK, so that was such a terrible thing because, you know, those bins are very loaded up with… they’re not clean, and they have hundreds and even thousands of fingerprints. And when they went to look at it, it was absolutely stone cold, wiped dry. You know that, right?” Trump asked.

Domenech said, “Well, because, I mean, I was briefly a Bush speechwriter. And so I knew exactly what they were talking about. And I was like, ‘Those things are filthy.’ They’re filthy.”
Trump continued, “And there were fingerprints. I mean, if you went to one, maybe we’re cleaner, but if you went to one at any time, you would see hundreds. Everybody in there would leave a fingerprint when they went in and that thing was wiped out with, with the strongest form of alcohol.”
“By the way, and I have to tell you, I think I’m going to look into that because it was… bad stuff happened there,” Trump concluded.
The handling of the case has faced criticism in the past, particularly regarding the Secret Service’s decision to dispose of the cocaine evidence. Reports indicated that former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, appointed by Biden, preferred to keep the incident quiet to avoid media attention, leading to internal disagreements within the agency.
According to a report from RealClearPolitics, Cheatle and other top agency officials allegedly attempted to have the cocaine evidence destroyed. However, the Secret Service Forensics Services Division and the Uniformed Division refused, leading to internal conflicts.
When the cocaine was found, initial reports varied on its exact location, eventually concluding it was in a vestibule near a White House entrance. The Secret Service sent the evidence for testing, which revealed a “partial DNA hit,” but no suspects were identified. The investigation was closed due to a lack of physical evidence.
The incident has also been a focal point for political debates, with various figures using it to criticize the Biden administration. Despite the controversy, no definitive evidence has been presented to implicate any individual, and the true source of the cocaine remains unknown.
