Ben Shapiro, Megyn Kelly, and others reacted on Thursday to news that the Secret Service has closed its probe into the cocaine found recently at the White House without identifying any suspects.
The federal agency announced in a statement that “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,” prompting lawmakers and many on social media to decry it as a “cover up.”
“We are now being asked to believe that the most secure building on the planet has no surveillance necessary to effectuate the identification of the person who left cocaine there,” Shapiro tweeted. “Suuuuuuuuuuure.”

“I mean, it’s not as though Secret Service has ever tried to cover up a Hunter Biden crime,” he added, retweeting a headline in Politico that read, “Sources: Secret Service inserted itself into case of Hunter Biden’s gun.”

Shapiro concluded his thread with a sarcastic missing poster of “white powder” with “Reward offered: one oil painting.”

The host of the Sirius XM “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast opened her show on Thursday comparing the end of the investigation to that of the search for the individual who leaked a draft of the Supreme Court opinion in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case.
“There’s no suspects, nor do they care to continue investigating … so convenient,” Kelly told her audience. “Look, it’s probably not Hunter Biden’s. This whole thing has me thinking it’s good to be a Biden. It’s really good to be a Hunter Biden, [President] Joe Biden, you have everyone running interference for you.”
“Or just a Democrat,” she added. “It’s great to be a Supreme court leaker and have the Supreme Court marshal cover up for you. And probably Chief Justice … They don’t go after Hunter on his most severe tax evasion for all his Burisma payments he got when Joe was VP … And if cocaine shows up at the WH, as opposed to like a Trump White House, they don’t really have a lot of interest in it. Who are they trying to kid?”

“Closing White House” started trending on Twitter too as the news surfaced that the cocaine prob was closed.
One person tweeted, “What an utter joke. So now the Secret Service is corrupt like DOJ and FBI. What a disgrace. Do they think they are fooling anyone? Now I believe more than ever that Trump was correct AGAIN. It was Hunter’s and Big Guy’s stash.”

Another added, “Yeah, it’s a real mystery who might’ve brought cocaine into the Biden White House. Our government is run by corrupt gangsters who lie about everything while imprisoning you for their crimes.”

OutKicks’ Clay Travis wrote that “The Secret Service just announced it has concluded its investigation into the cocaine found at the White House and says they can’t determine who brought the cocaine there. Your federal government will now resume its true focus: putting grandmas in prison for January 6th.”

Columnist Joe Concha tweeted to his followers, “The most surveilled property in the world somehow can’t produce video evidence of who left a bag of cocaine near the Situation Room at the White House. And apparently the suspect was wearing gloves in the middle of summer. Incredible.”
