No sniffing dogs

What I find absolutely hilarious is that, unlike other federal entities, the Secret Service doesn’t have dr*g-sniffing dogs. For example, if a law enforcement officer finds a powder or any other substance on White House grounds or in nearby areas, they have to request the assistance of D.C. Fire and EMS. The discovery of the “mysterious item” prompted another “precautionary closure” of the White House, as explained by the Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi in a statement on Tuesday. Guglielmi explained that D.C. Fire was initially called to evaluate the substance and establish if it was “non-hazardous.” Mr. Biden wasn’t at the White House over the weekend, as he and first lady Dr. Jill Biden, along with other members of their family, went to Camp David on Friday. They soon returned to the White House on Tuesday for an upcoming event with the National Education Association and Fourth of July festivities.
