FBI announces new probes into Dobbs Supreme Court leak, White House cocaine incident

The FBI is launching new investigations into two high-profile cases: the leak of a 2022 Supreme Court draft decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, and the 2023 discovery of cocaine at the White House.

Dan Bongino, apodcaster and now FBI deputy director, announced the move on social media, saying he will receive weekly updates on both probes.

The cocaine incident, which happened near the West Wing entrance, sparked outrage from conservatives, including Donald Trump, who accused President Biden or his son Hunter of being involved despite the family being out of town at the time. A White House spokesperson previously dismissed the claims as "incredibly irresponsible".

In the Supreme Court leak case, Trump had also reacted strongly, calling the anonymous source "slime" and suggesting reporters be jailed if they didn’t reveal who it was.

Earlier investigations by the Secret Service and the Supreme Court failed to find those responsible.

Bongino, who has spread unsupported claims before, hinted that whistleblowers suspect someone close to Biden might be linked to the cocaine incident.

He also said the FBI will devote more resources to solving the 2021 pipe bomb case, when explosives were found near the offices of both major political parties the night before the Capitol riot. The person behind that act remains unknown.
