In a surprising twist, former Trump White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany has publicly defended Hunter Biden amidst the ongoing probe into the discovery of cocaine at the White House, according to RadarOnline.com. McEnany confidently dismissed Biden as a potential suspect during her co-hosting gig on Fox & Friends Thursday morning.
The cocaine was reportedly found in a frequently visited area within the White House premises, a location easily accessible to numerous individuals. The substance was discovered by vigilant Secret Service officers rather swiftly, implying it hadn't been present for an extended period.
During her Fox & Friends segment, McEnany reasoned, "So it couldn't have been there for days and days. It had to have been there for — I would say — minutes before someone took notice."
Further cementing her stance, she emphasized the fact that the drug was located on Sunday, a day when Biden and his family were not residing at the White House. The site in question is one that visitors and staffers alike can frequent. She added, "For it to be Hunter Biden, he left on Friday, he was at Camp David. There’s no way. It’s inconceivable to think cocaine could sit for a 72-hour period, so I would rule him out at this point."
However, McEnany's co-hosting was not devoid of criticism. She expressed disapproval towards the current White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, for not providing regular updates regarding the probe to the public. Earlier this week, Jean-Pierre had assured that "The president thinks it's incredibly important to get to the bottom of this."
As the investigation proceeds, the Secret Service is diligently trying to identify the person responsible for introducing the illicit substance into the White House. The seized cocaine, found in a baggie, is currently being examined for fingerprints.
It's worth noting that White House staff undergo a fingerprinting process upon commencement of their employment. They are also required to participate in periodic drug tests.
Earlier this week, the Secret Service revealed that an investigation was pending to decipher how the cocaine had gained entry into the White House premises, following a brief closure of the establishment.
