The Washington Post reported the preliminary results late Monday, corroborated by two individuals close to the investigation and a dispatch recording from responding D.C. firefighters:

A spokesman for the Secret Service, Anthony Guglielmi, said the substance is undergoing further testing to determine what it is, and authorities are looking into how it got into the White House. He said the D.C. fire department determined the substance did not present a threat.

The discovery prompted an elevated security alert and a brief evacuation of the executive mansion, Guglielmi said. He said President Biden was not in the White House at the time. Guglielmi said there is “an investigation into the cause and manner” of how the substance entered the White House.

Guglielmi declined to say specifically where in the White House the substance was found or how it was packaged. He said it was found by members of the Uniformed Division of the Secret Service conducting routine rounds through the building.

In a dispatch with an 8:49 p.m. timestamp, a firefighter with the D.C. department’s hazardous materials team radioed the results of a test: “We have a yellow bar saying cocaine hydrochloride.”

According to the Daily Mail, a small bag of cocaine found in the White House Library prompted the evacuation and emergency response. Hunter Biden had allegedly worked from his laptop in the same room two days before. (RELATED: Biden Lawyer Blames Hunter’s Texts On Client’s ‘Horrible Addiction’)

The Mail reported that Secret Service agents suspected it belonged to Hunter and did not collect fingerprints as one would expect. It should be noted that the White House Library is part of the White House tour, which members of the public regularly shuffle through.

Addiction has plagued Hunter Biden for most of his life. Multiple sources claim increasing scrutiny over Hunter’s overseas business dealings, personal life and sweetheart plea deal has the president frightened his sole surviving son will relapse.

      Security doesn’t pat down Hunter when he comes and goes so there was no problem in it getting there. Of course once Hunter realized he had ” misplaced” his pick me up he went a little nuts running around the white house. The security people finally told him that it was found and turned in for testing. Now he had to get in contact with his supplier rear fast before he started with the sweating and shakes. What a poor sheltered life he leads.

    All the evil is coming home to roost with this corrupt family.

    In a house occupied by someone who many believe is a crime family boss, what would a white powder most likely be? Why wouldn’t the crew who also occupies the place be just as corrupt and lawless as the, “big guy”? Of course, maybe it was just one of the big guy’s, son’s, friends, visiting. Hunter is the finest most intelligent person the big guy knows.
