NextImg:White House Sources: We Kind of Lied About Where the Cocaine Was Found, But We Swear, It Was Totally In a "Highly-Trafficked Area"

Oh.

You lied about it being found in the West Wing.

But I should just go ahead and believe your next series of lies, right?


Multiple officials involved in the White House cocaine inquiry now say the bag of powder was found in a cubby near the White House's West Executive entrance, not the formal West Wing lobby as was previously reported.

Investigators expect to be done with the investigation by Monday, according to two sources familiar with the investigation. The inquiry was previously expected to take a couple of weeks.

In updating the location of where the cocaine was found, officials said that area was also heavily trafficked.

The cocaine was found in an entrance area between the foyer and a lower-level lobby, the sources said. The entrance is near where some vehicles, like the vice president's limo or SUV park. It is one floor below the main West Wing offices and the same floor as the Situation Room and a dining area.

Ari Fleischer says this is not a "heavily trafficked area" -- this is a staff entrance only. So only a VIP or staff member would be permitted here.

This changes things. If the cocaine was on the lower level of the West Wing -- and not on the main floor lobby, it makes it much more likely to be the staff and not a visitor. The lower level door is not regularly used by guests. It's a staff entrance.

The way this White House approaches comms is just wild.

"Yeah whatever. Just tell them we actually found the blow somewhere else."

By the way, there's a reason that the White House's first lie was to claim the coke was found in the library: Because the library is open to tours for visitors. (The colored rooms on this map are ones visitors are steered through on tours.)

But that was a lie. Then they said it was found in the West Wing lobby, which was a lie. Now they're saying it was found in an entrance area where people come in after being dropped off by.... the presidential limo.

Do many tour groups saunter through there, I wonder?
