cocaine scandal at the white house. and now the secret service just wrapped its investigation into the matter without even naming a suspect. hello and welcome, everyone. sandra smith in new york. mike, great to have you here today. mike: great to be working with you. this is america reports, the conclusion of that probe comes 11 days after cocaine was found. located inside a heavily trafficked lobby where staff go in and out and tour groups gather to drop their phones and other belongings. and despite surveillance footage of the area, and an fbi crime lab analysis, investigators couldn t find a single suspect in the case? mike: ari fleischer joins us coming up. the secret service says it s because it was awaiting the fbi test results of fingerprint and dna analysis to see if they could determine who brought the cocaine into the west wing. tests came back without any results. so now the secret service says it has wrapped up the investigation. we got a statement from
that was congressman darrell issa tamping down talk of impeachment. it was just a few weeks ago, mike, that house speaker kevin mccarthy used the impeachment word when talking about garland. republicans seem to be cooling tensions a little bit when it comes to the impeachment talk. mike. mike: david spunt live at the justice department. many thanks. sandra: more on that in a moment, but the top story, south carolina senator lindsey graham is joining us, also a ranking member on the senate judiciary committee. i want to dig into that in a second, the letter senator graham, thanks for being here. but why is this investigation already concluded over the findings of the cocaine at the white house without a single suspect being named? i mean, isn t that the most secure building in america? apparently not. so here is what the story is telling us. that somebody brought cocaine into the white house and the
mike pence chose iowa to launch his campaign. iowa s legislature just passed a six week abortion ban, a policy pence has previously said he supports. most of these candidates will speak at a forum tomorrow in des moines. asa hutchinson has a vfw fundraiser, and nikki haley and vivek ramaswamy will hold pancake breakfast events. i hear they are good at those. and they are hitting them all. mike: rich, thanks a lot. what do we want? contracts. when do we want it? now. when we fight. we win. no writers, no shows. what do we want? fair contracts. when do we want it? now. sandra: actors preparing to join picket lines after studios fail to reach a deal with their union. writers have already been
they want to see everybody in one place. so, i don t know, mike. you have thoughts? mike: best players on the course at the same time is what you want, and hopefully they can figure it out and get back to normal. sandra: i think they will. all right. right out of the tornado come right out of the sky, was over our car, was spinning, i seen two guys taking a film and looking up, and it comes toward the car. i moved the car over and it rolled over us and started destroying everything. god be with us all, this is a bad one. irreplaceable. lives aren t. that s the whole thing. i would rather have that be replaced than lose somebody. sandra: people scrambled for safety as tornadoes barrelled through the chicago area, this happened yesterday. one twister touched down near o hare international airport, forced thousands of travelers to shelter in their place, not just o hare, but midway as well across town.
