White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre shut down multiple questions during Wednesday’s press briefing related to the cocaine that was found inside the White House at the start of the week.

Jean-Pierre refused to disclose where in the West Wing the cocaine was found or what entrance was closest to where the cocaine was found.

She said that the Secret Service needs “space” to be able to conduct its investigation into how the illicit drug made its way into the White House.

“As you know, the president and the first lady and their family were not here this weekend, as you all reported on this and as you also know that they left on Friday and returned just yesterday,” she said. “Where this was discovered is a heavily-traveled area where many White House – West Wing, I should be even more specific, West Wing visitors come through this particular area, I just don’t have anything more to share.”

Fox News White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich asked Jean-Pierre: “How determined is the president to get to the bottom of who brought illegal drugs to the White House?”

“The Secret Service is getting to the bottom of it and that’s what matters, and it’s under their purview,” the press secretary responded.

“But the question was how determined is the president,” Heinrich pushed back.

“The president thinks it’s very important to get to the bottom of this,” Jean-Pierre replied. “That’s why the Secret Service, which is under their purview, is looking into this. And they’re going to look into what happened this weekend. So the president thinks this is incredibly important to get to the bottom of this.”

A left-wing publication faced backlash this week for citing an anonymous law enforcement official who said that it was unlikely officials will find out who brought cocaine into the White House.

Secret Service confirmed on Wednesday that the substance, which was discovered Sunday night, was, in fact, cocaine after additional testing was done.

POLITICO reported that a “official familiar with the investigation” said that it was unlikely that they would ever know who brought the illicit substance into the White House.

“It’s gonna be very difficult for us to do that because of where it was,” the official claimed. “Even if there were surveillance cameras, unless you were waving it around, it may not have been caught.”

The report was slammed online by a wide range of different media and political figures.

“We can now accurately predict all future headlines,” said Scott Adams. “Here’s one we all knew was coming.”

“I could come up with at least one culprit,” said Fox News contributor Lisa Boothe.

Attorney and columnist Kurt Schlichter sarcastically remarked, “Of course – in the most secure, surveilled building in America.”

Former Trump administration official Monica Crowley tweeted, “It’s a giant mystery that has the nation’s most sophisticated investigatory minds perplexed.”

“Apparently they’ve got the same crack investigative team assigned to the Dobbs Supreme Court leak on this,” said radio host Buck Sexton.

DeSantis official Bryan Griffin tweeted, “Odd – why isn’t @politico more interested in who (D)id this?”

The popular Twitter account David Burge wrote: “Apparently the clever cocaine dropper was able to elude the 24/7 saturation security cameras like a ninja cat burglar parkouring through a diamond museum’s laser beams.”

“This means it was Hunter,” claimed radio host Dana Loesch. “Good thing it wasn’t an explosive or anything. Maybe the White House should invest in 24/7 security camer– oh wait.”
