The deputy director of the FBI, Dan Bongino, announced on Monday that the agency is reinvesting the case of cocaine found in the White House in 2023, an incident that led Donald Trump to speculate wildly that the drug belonged to the then President Joe Biden or his son, Hunter Biden.

Among other unresolved cases contaminated by “potential public corruption,” Bongino wrote, the FBI will also visit the pumps of pipes planted outside the headquarters of the democratic and republican party the night before the disturbance of the Capitol of January 6, 2021, and the filtration of federal protections of federal abortions of the Supreme Court of the Supreme Court.

In July 2023, the Secret Service discovered a cocaine bag in a bucket used by visitors and employees of the White House, causing unfounded assumptions on the source. Trump accused Hunter Biden and Joe Biden to inhale the stash. But the secret service said he could not identify the culprit and abandoned the case.

It is likely that the renewed interest in the matter is not coincidence after Trump exploded the controversy during his candidacy.

“Does anyone really believe that the cocaine that is found in the west wing of the White House, very close to the oval office, is for the use of someone who is not Hunter & Joe Biden,” he wrote about Truth Social that summer.

“But look, the false media will soon begin to say that the amount found was ‘very small’, and it was not really cocaine, but rather as the common aspirin, and the story will disappear.”

In 2024, Trump said Biden was “all expelled” during a speech from the State of the Union.
