    Psaki was always incredibly prepared, and the zingers were stuff of legend. Karine seems to struggle with simple details and responses.

    On claims "the cocaine found in the White House had belonged to either the president or his son. Are you willing to say that that's not the case?"

    nice clipped quote. here is what was actually said, per the link you posted.

    Q    Thanks.  Is the United States tracking the location of Wagner leader Prigozhin after the Belarusian leader said that he was not there and had returned to either St. Petersburg or Moscow?
     
    MR. BATES:  I am not going to address his whereabouts.  You will need to consult other sources for that.
     
    We continue to monitor the Wagner Group, as we’ve disclosed to all of y’all.  We have — we have applied biting sanctions to them.  They commit a wide range of crimes in the countries in which they are active.  But I do not have new details to provide about whereabouts or anything else concerning Prigozhin or the Wagner Group.
     
    Q    On a separate topic, do you have any new details on the investigation into the cocaine found at the White House?  Can you confirm that it was a “small baggie” and that DNA testing is taking place?
     
    MR. BATES:  I respect there is interest in this.  To be transparent with you, I do not have additional information to provide beyond what Karine laid out in the briefing room yesterday, which is: This is something we take seriously.  The law enforcement professionals in the Secret Service are investigating after this substance was discovered in a highly traveled area.  We’re willing to assist in any way needed.  Beyond that, I’m going to respect their process.
     
    Q    On — another one on Russia.  There was a report from NBC News that said senior U.S. off- — former senior U.S. officials at the Council of Foreign Relations had made outreach to Russian nationals, including Foreign Minister Lavrov, about laying the groundwork for peace talks with Ukraine.  Was the administration read in on those talks?  And do you support them?
     
    MR. BATES:  I’m not going to speak for any private citizens who are not members of the administration.  I would suggest you contact those individuals who the reporting concerns. 
     
    Our focus is on continuing to help Ukraine succeed on the battlefield so they can negotiate from a position of maximum strength on their terms and on no one else’s. 

    Q    One more.  You know, President — former President Trump has made some pretty wild posts recently on social media.  One of them was that the cocaine found in the White House was — had belonged to either the President or his son.  Are you willing to say that that’s not the case, that they don’t belong to them?
     
    MR. BATES:  I don’t have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act. 
     
    What I will say is that I have noticed there does seem to be some increasing frustration coming from that corner in general.  And I think it is probably rooted in the contrast between their substantive policy records. 
     
    As you have all covered, there is a long list of areas where this administration succeeded for the middle class where our predecessor did not.  For example, infrastructure is no longer a punchline.  And now the biggest infrastructure investments in 70 years are rebuilding America.
     
    President Biden is bringing manufacturing jobs back at the fastest rate in modern history.  And like I mentioned, we have doubled the construction of manufacturing facilities in just two and a half years.  Whereas during the previous administration, it only grew at an anemic 2 percent. 

    Medicare is now negotiating lower drug costs.  I’m old enough to remember when that was someone else’s campaign promise.

    The economy we inherited was in freefall.  We turned it around by creating more jobs in two years than any other president in four. 

    So it would be unsurprising if there’s a little bit of frustration on the part of people who worked in the last administration. 

    And, of course, this dovetails with today’s announcement from Enphase.  It comes at a moment when we have crossed the threshold of $500 billion in private sector investment due to Bidenomics, which is about growing our economy by growing the middle class.  There is no better way to do that than giving people good jobs coming to America, thanks to policies like the Inflation Reduction Act.

    Like Hunter or Brandon would have to check their cell phone in a cubby like a tourist, or insurrectionist, on a tour of the White House would, if the reporting on where it was found is accurate.

    It's obviously not a Hatch Act violation, but so what?  Hunter Biden went to Camp David on Friday.  Remember right wingers were all mad about that?  Then 72 hours later, when he's still there, cocaine is found in the WH.  So are you telling me that the white substance was in the WH for 72 hours before the SS found it?  Let's use our normal brains and not our conspiracy-addled one.

    Cmon, you’re party, you’re friends, you’re family are likely supporting a man responsible for the deaths of five cops and two of his own voters, yet you refuse to own up to that. Yet you endlessly come up here with conspiracy theories that have zero to do with governing @JB16057

    And the blow was discovered on Sunday evening, two days before the fireworks, while Brandon and family were at Camp David. Enjoy your cult.
