biden administration is trying to focus on the jobs report and shut down accusations if the drugs belonged to anyone in the first family. lucas tomlinson kicks things off for us right now. what s the latest? good afternoon, griff and aishah. white house officials say they hope to have this investigation wrapped up as early as early next week. we re not sure if we re going to hear about a list of suspects or somebody being arrested or charged, however. now, jean-pierre has been asked about the caper and this pointed question. i m asking again, can we say once and for all, whether or not the cocaine belonged to the biden family. i was very clear when talking about this over and over again as i was being asked the question, as you know, and the media outlets reported this, the biden family was not here. so to ask that question is actually incredibly irresponsible and i ll just leave it there. the biden family including first son hunter, who admitted to using crack every
actually incredibly irresponsible and i ll just leave it there. the biden family including first son hunter, who admitted to using crack every 15 minutes did not leave until 6:30 p.m. on friday, june 30th, 48 hours before the dime sized bag of cocaine was found by secret service agent on a routine patrol. the cocaine was found on the ground floor of the west wing near where visitors are taking tours and supposed to be leaving mobile phones. as you mentioned off the top, it s the job numbers not cocaine that the white house wanted to talk about yesterday. and the u.s. economy added 200,000 new jobs in june, smallest job growth since december of 2020 which experts shows a slowing of the labor market and the number of part-time workers rose by more than 450,000. the biggest jump in more than three years, griff. not a good sign for the white house.
