Report Shines Light on TRUMP Admin Drug Use: Staffers Would Down Xanax With Alcohol

TRUMP 'The Candyman,' And An Administration Hopped Up On Speed ... Trumps’ White House Was ‘Awash in Speed’ — and Xanax


MSRAW 6 MAR 2024





It was recently reported that a doctor who served in Donald Trump's administration was quick to hand out certain medications, but a new investigation has revealed the extent of the purported abuse.



In January, it was reported that Republican Congressman Ronny Jackson, when he was the doctor for Trump's White House, improperly handed out certain prescriptions. He faced backlash following a critical report by the Inspector General of the Department of Defense, according to Newsweek.

Now, Rolling Stone has released an exclusive report detailing the extent of the alleged drug abuse.

The report, called "Trump’s White House Was ‘Awash in Speed’ — and Xanax," quotes the outlet's insider sources as saying the White House Medical Unit was “like the Wild West,” and "staffers had easy access to powerful stimulants and sedatives."

"According to interviews with four former senior administration officials and others with knowledge of the matter, the stimulant was routinely given to staffers who needed an energy boost after a late night, or just a pick-me-up to handle another day at a uniquely stressful job," the report says. "As one of the former officials tells Rolling Stone, the White House at that time was 'awash in speed.'"

The report continues:

"Knowledgeable sources say that samples of the stimulant were passed around for those contributing lines to major Trump speeches, working late hours on foreign policy initiatives, responding to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, coping with the deluge of media inquiries about that investigation, and so much more."

It WAS NOT just speed, according to the report.

"Modafinil — also known by its brand name, Provigil — wasn’t the only controlled substance that Trump officials young and old routinely acquired. 'It was kind of like the Wild West. Things were pretty loose. Whatever someone needs, we were going to fill this,' one source with direct knowledge of the matter recalls," the outlet reported.

It also says the "anti-anxiety medication Xanax was also a popular, easy-to-get drug during the Trump years, three sources tell us. Neither Xanax nor its generic, alprazolam, is mentioned in the Pentagon report, which notes that it is not a comprehensive list of the controlled substances ordered during the Trump years. Two people with direct knowledge of the situation recall senior officials getting Xanax from the White House Medical Unit — and sharing it with colleagues."





The report further says, "During Candyman Trumps’ presidency, two sources say, senior staffers would repeatedly down Xanax with alcohol."
