President Donald Trump has vowed to reopen an investigation into the cocaine bag incident in the West Wing—a case that many believe was prematurely closed. In a recent interview with The Spectator on February 28, 2025, Trump suggested that the bag of cocaine found nearly two years ago could have been left by President Joe Biden or his son Hunter Biden.
In what appears to be the latest twist in a politically charged controversy, Trump’s remarks have reignited debate over whether the investigation into the incident—which took place in July 2023 during President Biden’s absence from the White House—was handled appropriately. According to Trump, the discovery of the small bag of white powder, later confirmed to be cocaine, was followed by an investigation by the United States Secret Service that was ultimately closed due to a lack of conclusive physical evidence.
The Incident and the Initial Investigation
In July 2023, while President Biden was away at Camp David, a small plastic bag containing a white powder was discovered in a storage cubby near a West Wing entrance. The discovery prompted an immediate evacuation of the area and the initiation of an investigation by the Secret Service. Their investigation reportedly included advanced fingerprint analysis and a thorough search for any other physical evidence that could shed light on the origin of the substance.
