KJP: I’m not going to get into specifics. All I can say is: When people visit the West Wing, there is an ar- — there is the area of the West Wing where it is highly traveled …

Reporter: There are a couple of primary entrances into the West Wing. There’s the one with which we’re all familiar, right outside of the driveway where the Marine stands when the President is in — in the West Wing. And there’s another entrance off West Executive Avenue. Can you explain which — which entrance we’re talking about?

KJP: I’m going to let the Secret Service speak to that.

Reporter: Okay. Can you explain why you can’t explain it? I mean, you’ve described it as a heavily traveled area.

KJP: That’s what the Secret — I’m just saying what the Secret Service said. We got this from the Secret Service, so I’m sharing a little bit more with you from here …

Reporter: The substance was discovered late on Sunday. What’s the latest staff-led tours that happen in the West Wing on a Sunday?

KJP: You know, I don’t have the specific on how late the t- — the staff tours — staff-led tours go. But I can tell you that there was one on Friday, there was one on Saturday, there was on one on Sunday.

On 7/5/2023, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked a surprising number of questions from reporters at briefing on the subject of the discovery Sunday of cocaine in the West Wing. First and foremost, Jean-Pierre wanted everyone to know that Joe, Jill, Hunter and the entire Biden family were away from the White House starting Friday and did not return until Tuesday. The Bidens spent the long holiday weekend at Camp David, returning on Tuesday for the Fourth of July celebration at the White House where Hunter was given pride of place on the Truman Balcony during the fireworks show. Jean-Pierre strongly inferred West Wing visitors were to blame for the cocaine, saying the discovery was made in a “heavily traveled” area of the West Wing and that tours had taken place there on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
