“Folks, there’s no way that story’s true,” retired 12-year Secret Service veteran Don Bongino declared Thursday, reacting to reports that the Agency was unable to find any leads in its investigation into who brought a bag of cocaine into the White House and left it there.
“So, there’s clearly a political motive here to make this story go away,” Bongino said on his syndicated radio program, noting that, in his 12 years as an agent, he’d never heard of cocaine being found in the White House. So, it’s suspicious that the substance is suddenly found in the White House, now that there’s a president’s son who has a history of using the drug, Bongino noted:
“All of a sudden you get a guy with a history of a cocaine-crack problem, okay, Hunter Biden, moves into the White House – he’s got a problem with drugs – and, all of a sudden, they find drugs in the White House.”
….
“Based on just reason, and strict probability calculations, the likelihood is it was either Hunter Biden or one of his friends.”
Bongino explained that White House security is so tight that no one could possibly stash a bag of cocaine less than 75 yards from where the president works and go undetected.
“That’s B.S.,” Bongino said. “I don’t buy it.”
It’s simply not believable that, not only didn’t White House security have a prime suspect, but it didn’t even have any leads, the former White House secret service agent added.
“That’s the part I don’t believe,” Bongino said.
On Thursday, Secret Service officials reported that the failed investigation into who brought the cocaine into the White House, and how it got there, will be closed on Friday.
