Florida’s Governor waded into a controversy about cocaine apparently being found on the White House floor, claiming it was the latest example of the Joe Biden administration “blowing it.”
During an episode of a Tomi Lahren podcast, Ron DeSantis ripped the administration for being poor stewards of the public space amid the illicit drug allegations.
“I have long believed, I think a lot of us have believed, that the Biden administration has been blowing it on a lot of fronts. But I guess it’s a little bit more literal than even I had thought,” the Governor quipped during another friendly interview.
The Associated Press reports the baggie of cocaine was found on the lobby floor in the West Wing. Biden has been briefed, and his spokesperson told reporters Wednesday that the President is looking to “get to the bottom of this.”
DeSantis, who nodded when Lahren suggested the cocaine may have belonged to Hunter Biden, went on to tell the host that no commensurate scandal to the cocaine find would happen in Tallahassee.
“I could tell you in Florida, my wife and I, we have a 6-, a 5-, and a 3-year-old running around the Governor’s Mansion. So that’s not something that we see,” DeSantis said.
The Governor then offered a good-natured quip about raising kids in that space.
“We do have to occasionally get slime out of the carpet and get marker off the wallpaper. But that’s the extent of our adventures at the Governor’s Mansion.”
The Governor and First Lady Casey DeSantis have made raising their rambunctious children a leitmotif in speeches to crowds during the current campaign season.
“If you have a 6-year-old and a 5-year-old, spill slime all over, it’s OK. If you move quickly, it doesn’t get embedded in there and never comes out,” Mrs. DeSantis said this spring. “But when you come and visit Tallahassee and we invite you all and you take a tour, look around because you will see slime and crayon marks because it is our way of leaving our ‘mark’ on the mansion after we leave.”

Good afternoon America,
Go get ’em The Ronald. I, Earl Pitts American, have advised The Ronald to hit them hard and hit them often on this cocaine subject.
We are going to force the current administration to find some young dook 4 brains staffer to falsely “take the blaim” for the team. Then be pardoned as the current Resident of The White House leaves.
We will accept nothing less. So remember The Ronald this is not a once and done thing. Hit ’em hard and repetively The Ronald or I, Earl Pitts American, will leave and you will have to hire Mike Huckabee to take my place as your #1 Advisor.

Normal tourist

The cocaine is from a normal, everyday tourist. If the media hadn’t been on repeat about how there was cocaine, you wouldn’t even know it was anything but a regular day with normal tourists on a normal tour.

Presidents can decriminalize cocaine with just a thought.
Being that Joe Biden currently is president, when he claims to have done that, maybe his claim will actually count for something.

The Secret Service new exactly who is was within hours (Hunter) if it was not Hunters cocaine , Karine Jean-Pierre and Rachel Maddow would have been waiving Hunters negative cocaine blood test result .

Vegas odds published overnight by online bookmaker SportsBetting have Hunter Biden — the troubled son of U.S. President Joe Biden — as the 2-to-1 favourite, as of Wednesday morning.
Of course it Hunters he is a hardcore addict

Yeah Rona, as pure as Snow White at his Disney World wedding, right? If I had to bet I would wager that Tramp and Rona have shared lines before they broke up. After all, they spout the same vomit while destroying our Nation and it’s institutions. Just say Woke!

Trump threw plates of food against the wall in the Whitehouse… while his supporters threw poop inside the Capitol. Funny he didn’t mention what Republicans do to government buildings.

Can Ron address real issues. I want to know why my property insurance has doubled and what he is doing to help reduce insurance rates in Florida.
