Ethics experts were baffled by the White House's invocation of the Hatch Act to dodge a question on the cocaine found this week at the presidential residence.
The culprit behind the White House’s July snowstorm has yet to be found, and the Biden administration isn’t answering whether President Biden or Hunter Biden owned the Independence Day cocaine dominating the headlines this week.
"I could envision other legitimate bases for declining to respond, such as respecting the integrity of the ongoing investigation, but references to the Hatch Act seem misplaced," Moss continued. "What the —— does the Hatch Act have to do with cocaine?" Painter told Fox News Digital in an email."This is the most ridiculous invocation of the Hatch act I’ve ever heard."
Conservative journalist Jerry Dunleavy quipped that Bates was referring to that"famous Hatch Act provision which doesn’t allow you to say White House cocaine doesn’t belong to the president or his son.""The same White House who said 'mega MAGA' from the briefing room podium ," Republican State Leadership Committee communications director Mike Joyce wrote.Other users bore down on the White House over the dodge.
Overseas sportsbook BetOnline.ag gives Hunter Biden +170 odds as the owner, placing him as the most likely wrongdoer among their listed suspects, which also appears to contain joke offenders peppered throughout the list.
