MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell speculated Thursday that the individual who brought cocaine into the White House isn’t an “average” visitor as the Biden administration previously suggested.
According to the latest “Cocainegate” developments, not only was the illegal drug found in the West Wing of the White House but it was spotted by Secret Service on Sunday in a cubby near the Situation Room.
While the bag of cocaine is being tested for DNA and fingerprints, Mitchell attempted to narrow the field of suspects by focusing on where specifically it was found.

O’Donnell told Mitchell that if any member of the public were to come through that area, they’d have to have gone on a “private tour” led by a White House staffer as their sponsor.
“The fact that it’s close to the Situation Room is certainly notable,” O’Donnell said.

President Biden and his son Hunter, who is a recovering crack cocaine addict, were based at Camp David at the time of discovery, according to the White House.
An anonymous law enforcement official told Politico on Wednesday that the case is unlikely to be cracked.
