Hunter Biden, who is 53 years old, was evidently staying with his father when the Secret Service discovered a bag of cocaine inside the White House. According to the Washington Post, the scandal-laden First Son, his second wife, and only son moved into the executive mansion on June 21, one day after securing a (since-imploded) sweetheart deal to skirt jail time for his tax and gun crimes.

The Secret Service discovered the coke in question on July 2, just two days after Hunter and the rest of the First Family headed to Camp David. Hunter returned to the White House on July 4 and moved out the very next day.

SCIENCE LOSES IN MONTANA COURT

Not leaving anything to chance, the Secret Service closed its investigation into the origins of the Schedule II narcotic just 11 days after its discovery. While Occam’s Razor would have us believe that the most likely culprit is the White House resident who was discharged from the Navy for cocaine abuse, the more troubling context presented by WaPo is Hunter’s corruption and chance for colluding with the executive branch to cover up his criminality, not potential drug crimes themselves.

Consider what we now know about that plea deal. For the small cost of pleading guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges and a pretrial diversion program mandating that he entirely abstain from alcohol and drugs, the Biden legal team and the Biden Justice Department believed that Hunter would be immune from future charges relating to ongoing investigations, including those into whether he was illegally acting as an unregistered foreign agent while his dad was vice president. It was only once Judge Noreika forced the DOJ to fess up that the deal blew up, as she described the deal as potentially “unconstitutional,” without precedent, and “not worth the paper it is printed on.”

So why does it matter that Hunter was living in the White House in the interim, whether he was polluting the place with illegal drugs in violation of his plea deal or not? Perhaps because he proved the very point of Noreika’s concern that the Biden DOJ had obliterated precedent to protect the only Biden Boy. Just think of the timeline: The Biden legal team and the Biden DOJ ink their deal on the 20th, Hunter moves into the White House on the 21st, and Hunter rubs shoulders with the boss of the DOJ, Merrick Garland, at the White House state dinner on the 22nd. What objective observer could expect that the DOJ was entirely unbiased in bending the rules for Hunter when the attorney general himself was celebrating with the Big Guy’s son just two days after nearly getting away with the cover-up of pending future criminal charges?

Hunter bailing on the presidential palace the day after he returned and realized, “Oh crap, they found cocaine,” is almost quaint next to the third-world corruption of the Biden family’s collusion with the nation’s premier law enforcement. One wonders why a middle-aged man would need to shack up at Dad’s in the first place, but it wouldn’t be the first time in Hunter’s adult life that his inability to cut the cord has interfered with his professional life.
