[Townhall] Last night, Fox News host Jessie Watters, like the rest of the nation, couldn’t stomach the United States Secret Service’s conclusion that it couldn’t figure out who brought cocaine into the White House. The law enforcement agency has the names of 500 individuals in or around the vestibule where the drugs were discovered, but supposedly no video evidence that can zero in on a person of interest. Due to the lack of a solid suspect, the agency is closing its investigation. How does one end what has never begun ?
It’s not believable. The world’s best security service and the high-tech systems at the White House couldn’t identify a suspect. Maybe agents should drug test the 500 potential suspects at this point. It sure looks like a cover-up is happening before our eyes, and it doesn’t help to diffuse those insinuations when the head of the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle, used to be on Biden’s security detail as vice president...
In the meantime, all files relating to this sham investigation will remain under seal, with the agency confident that the public will accept its half-a**ed probe into the matter. I don’t think so.

If they've closed the investigation, they shouldn't be able to refuse to answer questions because "it's an ongoing investigation", right?

A usual, holding back critical points about an event until the media attention span is exhausted allows for the creation of confusion about the actual truth. This was a drug drop off, using controlled locker and key, undoubtedly for someone in residence at the White House. The key to locker 50 will never be found but my guess is that it is/was in Hunter's possession. Only an addict in residence would craft such a scheme with the attendant risks associated with its compromise, but an arrogant one would do it as yet another display of invulnerability to the rules that govern the rest of us. Sound familiar?

Secret Service sacrificing its reputation to protect drug offender in the White House
By Thomas Lifson
"Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., told Fox News Digital that, during the briefing, she inquired about specific security measures in place for the lockers where the cocaine was found. Boebert said the Secret Service admitted that the key to the locker in question "is missing." "There are 182 lockers in that foyer and currently... locker number 50 where the cocaine was found, that key is missing," Boebert said. "There were more than 500 people who went through the West Wing during the weekend of when this substance was found, when the cocaine was found in the White House, and none of those people who have come through are classified as suspects."
"We do not know how many were tourists, individual citizens, or staffers, and they currently are not looking any further into those more than 500 people who entered that foyer of the West Wing during that weekend," she said. "Instead, they are quickly wanting to close this investigation and move on to the next Biden crime crisis." "
#3
No need to further discover what has already been discovered.
Breitbart - Officials at the White House know who brought cocaine into the White House and have confirmed that finding via fingerprint analysis, according to a report which contradicts a statement released by the Secret Service.
A security source told Soldier of Fortune magazine, “We know who handled it… We’ve known since last week.”
According to the report — which Breitbart News has not independently verified — two sources disclosed the name of the person who is believed to have handled the cocaine, but the magazine is withholding the name pending official confirmation.
The report alleged that the second test by the FBI “brought back a hit on fingerprints.”

If I were leading an effort that sought to discredit the Biden White House regarding the coke, I would attack these vulnerabilities regarding the incident:
1. Have a group like Judicial Watch flood the zone with FIOA requests to the WH Press Secretary and her staff for emails and internal communication regarding the location that the cocaine was found.
2. I would encourage OMG to target Eisenhower Executive Office Staffers to see what they are talking about when they are hammered in DuPont Circle. Why should we know less than the CCP about our government?
3. I would have a company like Rasmussen conduct some polling about whether Americans believe that there is a coverup concerning the cocaine and confront KJP about the result.
4. I would call the head of WH security in front of Congress for a grilling concerning the practice of allowing unvetted, unsearched, cokehead contractors free access to the WH in which it would be established that that’s not what happened.

I wonder if the "coke dealer to the White House" is actually a direct connection to one of the cartels.
Such a person could use money / threats to quiet a lot of people.

The key to locker 50 is missing. Ok, who was issued that key?

I don’t accept the premise that it was in a locker. Sunlight ought to be applied to the Press Secretary. Executive privilege does not apply unless she was providing counsel to the president. Some WH fixer is not president for Constitutional purposes.

This "investigation" brought to light that 2 other times drugs were found in the Biden White House. They were marijuana but these 2 were kept secret but somehow came to light after the cocaine was found. What else is being kept secret?

If we assume the worst then we're probably about right for the Biden White House. My assumption would be that all or most of the people who work there are high on drugs most of the time and it will be covered up. I assume that if Biden White House employees were not sociopaths they would not be Biden White House employees. And yes, Murcek, a direct connection to one or more of the Mexican drug cartels should be assumed, the money going through one or more of Hunter's offshore accounts. They don't leave that border wide open for nothing. I would also assume that any cocaine found in the White House is the good stuff.

Got a kick out of an article today about how, if that cocaine had been found in our house that DEA would confiscate under asset forfeiture it willy-nilly.
So now 1600 Penna. Ave. is no different than some dive in any urban setting.
#22
... and I think it was a delivery. Hunter will NOT be seen out on the streets picking up cocaine. He will have it delivered by someone who has access to the White House
#23
Only someone in security would know the blind spots. I don’t accept that the coke was in the cubbyhole. I believe that there was a couple of narrative tries at a location that would allow them to say that the perp could not be identified. The Hazmat testing took place in the library of residence. No security protocol would have you move possible anthrax from the office side of the White House into the residence. It was found in the library. You don’t march possible anthrax around. When it is moved it goes out of the building. The Administration is lying and doing it badly.

So the finger prints will not be Hunters on the bag. Only the supplier's. By the way. Why has Hunter not been seen since the find? If he was innocent, why is he NOT vehemently running around defending himself.
#25
If the cubby was a delivery, the baggy will have the dealers prints. If Hunter left it in the library, it would have his prints. The balcony snort is why he is not visible. He will make no statement until his plea deal. Jill is making a bad mistake not getting him into rehab immediately. If anything bad gets into Hunter’s supply, how will that look for the first family? If the powers that be have decided that Joe needs to go, facilitating a Hunter OD would help move that along.

[FoxNews] Video footage shows little girl squirming to avoid kiss from Biden.
The eyebrow-raising behavior from the president came as he concluded a five-day trip to Europe, where he participated in a Lithuanian summit to shore up support for Ukraine amid its war with Russia and showcase Finland's NATO membership.
During the trip, Biden committed multiple speaking gaffes, which included confusing Russia and Ukraine, as well as their leaders.

[Qoshe via Bongino] We can fight about who the nominee should be and we will until the convention, when people who actually care about the country and put beating the Democrat communists ahead of their petty prejudices and feuds will unite to get our GOP nominee elected in November. But what then? Well, here is a plan for any of the serious candidates — sorry Asa and that governor of East Dakota guy — for his/her first day in office.
January 20, 2025, Inauguration Day, will be seriously lit.
Our next president will awaken and I suggest some good, strong coffee and a light breakfast. It’s going to be a big day of kicking Dem tail. Kurt has a better grasp on solutions than anyone running

Also, order the US Marshals to raid the FBI HQ, seizing all records-paper and electronic, all phones and ALL weapons. Shoot any who resist or claim "I'm the FBI, you can't do th-*BANG*." Tell the new Federal DA's they get a 25k bonus for the conviction of each FBI agent, NSA agent, or other federal agents. Order the IRS to audit every member of congress, no matter of party EVERY SINGLE YEAR. Order the borders secured and invader's repelled by gunfire. Announce that any state, city, or county with Sanctuary policies on the books will have their governments arrested and charged with aiding and abetting the invasion of the United States.
[ZeroHedge] Tucker Carlson utterly dismantled the necon talking points of Trump's former Vice President Mike Pence, during an on-stage interview before a large audience of the FAMiLY Leadership Summit in Iowa on Friday.
Rather than respond to Carlson's criticisms about why tens of billions of taxpayer dollars are being spent on far-away Ukraine (which Carlson note is a country "most people can't find on a map") rather than focusing on protecting and restoring American cities in decline, a visibly irritated Pence instead vaguely said he could "do both". Watch Pence squirm below, as the crowd loudly cheered Carlson's question...
#1
Tucker ended more than Pence. Mike was done already. The House and Senate members that have been prioritizing support for Ukraine at our expense are now fully exposed and vulnerable to primary challenges. We have given them mandates repeatedly to accomplish our goals and not the projects of their globalist paymasters. We have not given them the option to support our desires. Mandate means mandatory. Certainly, some of them will survive their terrible voting resumes through corruption in 2024, but the tide has turned and the sea will take out the garbage or we will rake it off the beach.

[Epoch Times] The Biden administration has announced stringent new rules to reduce the use of coolants used in most air conditioning units and other appliances in the name of fighting climate change, with experts warning it will likely mean Americans will have to pay more to stay cool.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) this week issued a final rule to slash the use of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) by 40 percent by 2028 while decrying the chemical a "climate super-pollutant."
The rule dovetails with earlier efforts under the 2020 American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act to reduce the production and consumption of these chemicals by 85 percent by 2036. A hefty hidden tax on current air conditioners, paid through maintenance contractors, to save the planet from scorching hot temperatures, like we're having now, but which the news tells us every day is due to man-caused climate change.
"Service technicians say that replacing refrigerant lost from a leak now costs upwards of $800, about double what it did a year ago," Mr. Lieberman wrote. "Moreover, EPA’s HFC quotas tighten in the years ahead, so the ratchet will keep turning, surely causing homeowners’ bills to increase further still."
And while the environmental benefits of phasing out HFCs have become conventional wisdom, these, too, have been challenged.
"The U.S. HFC phasedown program, bolstered by domestic innovation to develop alternative chemicals and equipment, is paving the way for the United States to tackle climate change and strengthen global competitiveness," Joe Goffman, principal deputy assistant administrator of EPA’s Office of Air and Radiation, in a statement. Read through that dude's title and tell me we don't have enough administrators.
Patrick Michaels, a senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, and Benjamin Zycher, a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, penned a critical op-ed in the Washington Examiner when EPA first unveiled a proposal (pdf) to begin curbing HFCs back in 2021.
"The HFC phaseout makes no sense as part of a larger international effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions," the pair wrote. They performed a calculation based on the EPA’s estimate that slashing HFCs in the United States would eliminate the equivalent of 4.7 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide. About the same as Kerry's world travels, private or commercial jets, and/or private yachts.
"The 4.7-million-ton equivalent reduction would be 17 one-thousandths of 1 percent, the temperature effect of which would be undetectable," they argued.
"This phaseout has nothing to do with environmental protection and everything to do with classic Beltway rent-seeking by a special interest group. It should be rejected," they wrote. Do I detect a pattern? Gas stoves? Internal combustion vehicles? Gas-fired power plants? Gates 'baby nuke' in Wyoming? Coal-fired anything?

I think they should start by completely banning air conditioning in federal offices. In Washington and everywhere south of there. And especially in the EPA offices. See how they like it.

EPA was founded to address clean air and water. Obviously, that has been accomplished as temperature was never in their original mandate. Time to close the doors and turn out the light.

Start with all government offices banning A/C. Next replace all government vehicles, especially those up-armored SUVs, with BEVs. Don't Say It -- Do It! ...won't ever happen.

[NYPOST] A member of the bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit ... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang... Police Board of Commissioners has resigned in disgrace after he was caught in the act with a hooker in his car — then asked officers if they could "help him out."
Bryan Ferguson, who represented District 1 for the DPBC and was the former chair of Detroit’s police oversight board, announced his resignation Thursday after news broke that he had been found with the sex worker on Wednesday morning.
"It has been an honor and a privilege to serve the residents of Detroit in police oversight," Ferguson told the Detroit Free Press in a statement.
"After further consideration of the best interests of my family and the Board, I am choosing to resign as District 1 Police Commissioner effective immediately."
Undercover narcotics agents from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department spotted Ferguson committing a lewd act with a known sex worker around 7:15 a.m. Wednesday.
Capt. Jason Bates said he asked deputies at the scene if they could "help him out" and told him his position.
"At that time, Mr. Bryan Ferguson stepped out, identified himself as a Detroit police commissioner," Bates told Fox 2 Detroit.
"A title or position doesn’t make them above the law."
Ferguson told the Detroit Free Press the allegations are a "big misunderstanding" and said he "has nothing to hide."

In CA in the 70's at least there was a tradition of cops handing out "Get Out of Jail Free" cards to friends and folks who did them a favor - basically a note that said "Please extend what ever level of consideration is appropriate under the circumstances". If the arresting cop let you off he kept the card and used it to claim a solid from the issuer. Two-tier Justice ain't new.
[NYP] Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday called on the US to “reduce population” in an effort to combat climate change, but she meant to say “reduce pollution,” according to the White House.
The shocking gaffe happened as the 58-year-old vice president delivered remarks at Coppin State University in Baltimore, Md., on the need to build a “clean energy economy.”
“When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles and reduce population, more of our children can breathe clean air and drink clean water,” Harris said, eliciting applause from the audience.
The official White House transcript of her speech acknowledges and corrects Harris’ disquieting error.
In the transcript, “population” is crossed out and “pollution” is added in brackets to denote what the VP intended to say.

That harridan meant what she said. But I suspect it's the other way around. The Davos/Gates Gang use climate change and methods to "fight it" to slow human social and economic growth which eventually results population reduction.
The irony is Gates' push for the vaccines. First he says there are too many people on the planet, then he pushes vaccinations "to save lives", but the vaccination maims and kills.
But not to worry. Vaccines are finding their way in the food we eat.

[Just The News] The House Judiciary Committee on Thursday opened a formal investigation into why the FBI snooped on two Republican House Intelligence Committee staffers during the height of the Russia collusion probe, suggesting the seizure of their private email and records may have been retaliation for the panel's efforts to expose bureau misconduct.
The letter from Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to FBI Director Christopher Wray was prompted by reporting in Just the News and the New York Post revealing that Kash Patel, the chief investigator on then-House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes' team, had his email seized from Google back in late 2017, just before the release of a report that identified significant failures and abuses in the Russia collusion scandal.
