TL;DR Summary

Cocaine was discovered in a cubby hole in a West Wing entry area of the White House, where visitors place their belongings before going on tours. The Secret Service is investigating the matter, checking visitor logs and cameras. Possession of cocaine is a misdemeanor in Washington, D.C. The West Wing is heavily trafficked, with hundreds of people passing through regularly, including political staff, guests, and members of the press. The substance was found during a routine Secret Service sweep, leading to a brief closure of the White House complex. President Joe Biden and his family were not present at the time, but the president considers it important to get to the bottom of the incident.
