An old theory by FBI director Dan Bongino concerning cocaine discovered in the White House has gained attention once more, now that the FBI has decided to reopen the investigation into the matter.
Bongino previously hinted that there is ‘zero’ chance the Biden family wasn’t involved in bringing the substance into the building.
“There’s absolutely ZERO chance anyone other than a family member brought that cocaine inside the White House complex,” he posted on X.
“No chance that would make it past the mag/security checkpoints.
“Family bypasses those.”
Bongino shared his suspicions on X two years back after a small bag of cocaine was found in a cubby close to an entrance of the West Wing on July 2, 2023.
The substance inside the bag tested positive for cocaine, leading many people to theorize that Biden’s son, Hunter, was responsible for it.
The son of the former president, who had a past struggle with crack cocaine addiction, was spotted departing the White House merely two days before the cocaine was uncovered.
Hunter, 53 at the time, was visiting the Capitol to celebrate Independence Day with his family.
Despite his years of addiction, Biden’s youngest son says he’s completely sober.
“Makes sense. I cannot imagine a staffer bringing drugs into the White House, even in the Biden Admin,” one woman replied to Bongino’s post.
“That would be beyond idiotic.”
The Secret Service closed its investigation just 10 days after the drugs were found, citing a lack of evidence.
“Without physical evidence, the investigation will not be able to single out a person of interest from the hundreds of individuals who passed through the vestibule where the cocaine was discovered,” the agency said at the time.
In February 2025, Trump echoed Bongino’s hunch about the Biden family, questioning why there was no substantial proof found.
Trump assumed that there were usually “hundreds and even thousands” of fingerprints on the locker where the drugs were found, but there weren’t when investigators arrived.
“And when they went to look at it, it was absolutely stone cold, wiped dry,” Trump told The Spectator.
Since stepping back into the White House, Trump said he’s even more convinced “either Joe or Hunter” was behind the scandal.
What unsolved White House mysteries is the FBI investigating?
- White House cocaine discovery – On July 2, 2023, a dime-sized bag of cocaine was found in a locker near a White House entrance. The Secret Service closed its investigation 10 days later and said there wasn’t enough physical evidence to hone in on a suspect.
- Supreme Court Roe decision leak – On May 3, 2022, Politico published a report that revealed justices’ decision to overturn Roe v Wade. Investigators are looking into how the draft of the decision was obtained by the outlet.
- White House pipe bombing – A suspect placed pipe bombs near the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee headquarters the night before the US Capitol riots. Footage of the suspect has been released, but investigators still haven’t tracked down an identity.
While the owner of the mysterious bag of cocaine has yet to be named, that may be changing soon.
On May 26, Bongino announced that the FBI would investigate the case, along with a couple of other instances that displayed “potential public corruption.”
“We made the decision to either re-open, or push additional resources and investigative attention to these cases,” he wrote on X.
“These cases are the DC pipe bombing investigation, the cocaine discovery at the prior administration’s White House, and the leak of the Supreme Court Dobbs case.”
