Photos Released of Cocaine Discovered at White House

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Photos were released on Monday of the cocaine that officials discovered over the summer that prompted an evacuation of the facility.

The photos, published by the Daily Mail, show a small baggie containing a white powdery substance sitting inside a cubby hole where people can store personal belongings near the White House’s West Executive entrance.

Officials confirmed the substance as cocaine during preliminary and subsequent testing.

President Joe Biden and his family, including admitted cocaine-addict Hunter Biden, who was kicked out of the military for testing positive for cocaine, were reportedly at Camp David when the drugs were found.

The FBI and Secret Service conducted an investigation into the owner of the substance but allegedly shut down the investigation due to a “lack of evidence” after narrowing down a list of potential suspects to 500 people, the report said.

Veteran Feds Cry Foul on White House Cocaine Probe: ‘This Is a Cover-Up’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The conclusion of an 11-day Secret Service probe that failed to find which White House staff member or visitor left cocaine in the West Wing looks like a whitewash, former federal investigators told The Post Thursday.

“This is a cover-up. How can they say they have no leads?” one ex-agent said. “It is a restricted area and they have a log book, you don’t have to be Columbo to figure out who was there.

“Suppose it was anthrax,” the same person raged. “Would they have the same answer?”

“We have a tale of two countries,” another former fed said. “They identified hundreds of people who were in the Capitol building on Jan. 6 after an extensive investigation, but they don’t know who left something in an 8 x 10 room in the White House?”

The Secret Service concluded its inquiry Thursday without identifying a suspect, citing “a lack of physical evidence” after FBI forensic testing yielded no fingerprints and insufficient DNA evidence. (Read more from “Veteran Feds Cry Foul on White House Cocaine Probe: ‘This Is a Cover-Up’” HERE)

Hunter Biden Catches July 4th Fireworks With Joe at White House — Hours After Drugs Found on Premises; Cocaine Found Inside White House

/2 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. First son Hunter Biden joined his father and other members of the Biden family at the White House Tuesday to take in the Fourth of July fireworks following a weekend getaway to Camp David – during which a powdered substance found in the West Wing initially tested positive for cocaine.

President Biden and first lady Jill Biden were accompanied on the balcony of the South Portico by Hunter Biden, his son Beau Jr., first daughter Ashley Biden and other members of the First Family.

“Welcome to your house, the White House. We’re just rentin’,” the 80-year-old president told military families, National Park Service staff and their families, and members of his administration and their families during brief remarks Tuesday night.

The Bidens and others in attendance for the president and the first lady’s Independence Day celebration had front-row seats to the fireworks spectacular over the National Mall.

Attendees were also treated to musical performances by the United States Military’s Premier Bands, Grammy award-winning country musicians Brothers Osborne and three-time Grammy award-winning musician NE-YO, among other artists, according to the White House.

Report: Cocaine Found Inside White House

By Breitbart. A substance found inside the White House on Sunday that prompted an evacuation tested positive for cocaine, according to a report.

The Washington Post reported late Monday evening that the substance — found Sunday evening “inside the White House” was “a white powder” that “indicated positive for cocaine.”

The recording of the dispatch is posted on openmhz.com, which posts all radio transmissions from police and fire departments.

The Post reported that at 8:49 p.m. ET, a firefighter with the D.C. Fire Department hazmat team radioed in the results of a test, saying, “We have a yellow bar saying cocaine hydrochloride.”

That dispatch, which was also reviewed by Breitbart News, came about an hour after the hazmat crew arrived at the White House, according to photos taken by an independent journalist. (Read more from “Report: Cocaine Found Inside White House” HERE)

Feds Seize JP Morgan Ship With $1 Billion in Cocaine, Investigation Heats up Big Time

/0 Comments/in , /by

Federal authorities are combing through “voluminous” evidence including audio in obscure languages, texts, navigation data, and physical evidence after seizing $1 billion worth of cocaine on a ship owned by JPMorgan this summer.

Prosecutors indicted Nenad Ilic, a nautical engineering trainee from Montenegro, last month. Court filings show they accused the MSC Gayane crewmember of taking part in a conspiracy that involved mobile “narco” phones, ski masks, fake container seals, acts of intimidation, and smuggling drugs onto the ship under the cover of darkness. . .

“This case is so unusual and complex due to the nature of the prosecution, including the volume of discovery materials and the large number of potential witnesses, that it is unreasonable to expect adequate preparation for pretrial proceedings or for the trial itself within the time limits,” Judge Brattle ruled on a motion for a speedy trial.

Judge Brattle underlined the immense scale of the MSC Gayane in the court order. He highlighted that it carries thousands of shipping containers, spans “more than three football fields in length,” and contains an “extensive network” of navigation technology and other computers and electronics.

This Is the Horrifying Thing Cocaine Can Do to Your Brain, According to Experts

/1 Comment/in , /by

High doses of cocaine can cause the brain to eat itself, research suggests.

A mouse study found that the drug can trigger out-of-control ”autophagy” – a process by which cells literally digest themselves.

When it is properly regulated, autophagy provides a valuable clean-up service – getting rid of unwanted debris that is dissolved away by enzymes within cell ”pockets”.

Dr Prasun Guha, from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in the US – who led the research published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, said: ”A cell is like a household that is constantly generating trash.

”Autophagy is the housekeeper that takes out the trash – it’s usually a good thing. But cocaine makes the housekeeper throw away really important things, like mitochondria, which produce energy for the cell.” (Read more from “This Is the Horrifying Thing Cocaine Can Do to Your Brain, According to Experts” HERE)

Border conspiracy: local law manipulates crime stats for feds (+hidden video)

/2 Comments/in , /by

Every year, the federal government doles out roughly a billion taxpayer dollars to local law enforcement agencies in the form of grants. These agencies — city police and constables, state agencies, county sheriffs — apply for the grants through the Department of Justice’s COPS (for Community Oriented Policing Services) program and use them to hire more personnel, purchase vehicles and equipment, and enhance their crime-fighting capabilities.  But do the federal grants actually help fight crime?

Local law enforcement agencies insist that the grant money is vital to fighting crime and even to their departments’ survival. But is there a dark side to federalizing local law enforcement funding? PJ Media has obtained exclusive hidden camera video that shows federal grant money creates an incentive for local law enforcement to falsify their crime statistics. The fake stats tell a story that ends up benefiting the local agencies that clamor for the grants, while helping Washington sell its story that the border is safer than it really is:

 

Case in point: Hidalgo County, Texas. This border county is home to McAllen, one of the fastest-growing cities in the entire United States. Hidalgo County boasts the most border crossings of any county along the Texas-Mexico border. Property values are rising here despite the stagnant U.S. economy. The county is home both to gang-infested barrios and to a posh neighborhood that boasts fountains, manicured lawns, beautiful new custom homes, and many cars bearing Mexican license plates.

Hidalgo County sits across the border from Reynosa, Mexico, one of the most violent and troubled cities in the Mexican drug wars. But according to some local officials, Mexico’s drug war has not spilled over into their bustling Texas community. They say this even though U.S. forces engaged drug cartel members in a firefight at Chimney Park in Hidalgo County in 2011.

Hidalgo County elected Democrat Guadalupe “Lupe” Treviño sheriff in 2004 and then re-elected him in 2008, and this spring he reportedly spent more than a half a million dollars to clinch the Democratic nomination for a third term as the county’s sheriff. In this heavily Democratic county, Treviño is a cinch to win that third term. The former Austin police officer claims that Hidalgo County has seen a dramatic reduction of violent crime during his tenure. Sheriff Treviño dismisses the presence and influence of drug cartels in his border county. To hear Sheriff Treviño talk, domestic violence may be a bigger issue in Hidalgo County. But as a local news story that was published August 10, 2012, shows, many residents of Hidalgo County do not feel safe and do not believe that crime is down at all. They also do not believe that Sheriff Treviño’s office is concerned about them.

More Pentagon incompetency: Hugo Chavez “does not represent a threat to US security”

/0 Comments/in , , /by

U.S. Gen. Douglas Fraser on Tuesday backed up President Obama’s appraisal that Venezuela does not represent a threat to U.S. security. The only thing that statement proves is that both men refuse to acknowledge a menace that has grown worse on their watch.

Gen. Fraser is the last in a long line of regional commanders who have refused to mud-wrestle with Hugo Chavez. I have profound respect for men and women who are willing to risk their lives fighting our enemies or ordering others to do so, and I understand fully why they want to keep such conflicts to a minimum. However, the best way to prevent such confrontations is to kick over rocks to find the hidden threats and to take careful measure of our foes.

On Gen. Fraser’s watch, Mr. Chavez has consolidated a narco-state in Venezuela. U.S. law enforcement and federal prosecutors have gathered fresh, compelling evidence implicating Venezuela’s National Assembly president, minister of defense and Mr. Chavez himself in narcotics trafficking. If a foreign military using its personnel, vehicles and aircraft to shovel cocaine onto U.S. streets and schoolyards is not a national security threat, what is? If such activities by Venezuela’s government are not a threat, why do we spend billions of dollars to counter the problem? Why does Gen. Fraser’s own command website call drug trafficking “a significant threat to security and stability in the Western Hemisphere”?

On Gen. Fraser’s watch, Mr. Chavez and his senior military commanders have provided material, financial, logistical and political support for Colombian drug traffickers who are branded terrorists by the U.S. government. American authorities know Mr. Chavez’s regime has issued Venezuelan passports or visas to thousands of Middle Eastern terrorists and offered safe haven to Hezbollah trainers, operatives, recruiters and fundraisers. During a March visit to Southern Command headquarters in Miami, now Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin E. Dempsey said, “[W]e recognize the threat that transnational organized crime presents, not just because of what they transport to our shores, but what they could also transport — terrorists and weapons and weapons of mass destruction.”

On Gen. Fraser’s watch, a half-dozen Iranian companies sanctioned by United Nations, U.S. or European authorities have built suspicious industrial installations at various sites in Venezuela. Those facilities were important enough to attract secret visits by Iranian Maj. Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the Revolutionary Guard Corps aerospace commander, who previously headed Iran’s missile program, in July 2009 and November 2011.

Drug money funds voter fraud in Kentucky (+video)

/6 Comments/in , , /by

Voter fraud has a shocking new meaning in eastern Kentucky.

That is where in some cases, major cocaine and marijuana dealers admitted to buying votes to steal elections, and the result is the corruption of American democracy. The government continues to mete out justice in the scandal, as two people convicted in April in a vote-buying case face sentencing this week, and another public official pleaded guilty Tuesday to conspiracy.

“We believe that drug money did buy votes,” Kerry B. Harvey, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Kentucky, said of a separate vote-buying case.

He described a stunning vote-buying scheme that includes “very extensive, organized criminal activity, involving hundreds of thousands of dollars, and in many cases that involves drug money.”

Harvey has led a recent string of federal prosecutions exposing the widespread and accepted practice of vote buying in eastern Kentucky. The soft-spoken federal prosecutor, along with his team and state authorities, are waging a battle against what he characterizes as a vote-buying culture embedded in many of the communities for generations.
