Biden crack pipes: New update from White House clarifies free smoking kit | LiveNOW from FOX

The White House is pushing back against claims that the Biden administration is funding a safe smoking kits program that hands out crack pipes to drug addicts as part of an effort to limit infections among drug users. Press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters that the crack pipes were never part of the safe smoking kit, which does contain items including alcohol swabs, lip balm, other materials to promote hygiene and reduce transmission of diseases.

I'm a recovered addict..33 years clean...this is not the FN answer.

[tazracet]

Spend money on kits and needles and injection sites instead of housing and therapy And rehabilitation even a child can understand how stupid this is

They're Hunter's old pipes. They ran them through the dishwasher and included them in the kit.

[naldovaz]

been clean 4 years now.. got my life back.. This is insanity

[FirstNameLastName-rsqo]

What i heard was, "We want to save lives by making drugs cleaner and safer from diseases so that the user can waste their life away properly and only die from the actual drug. "

[will_dikfit]

Is Hunter in charge of this crack distribution?
Is he gonna get a new lap top???

[thinkingimpaired]

Crackpipes for Democrats provided by the Build Crack Better program.

She's such a poor liar & we're paying for drug addiction.
Great gas price Joe thanks.

[BigPennyStockAlerts]

She went from being very happy, to very angry. Her job is probably weighing on her, and it’s got to get tough remembering all the lies.

[Brynden-Rivers]

Lmfao, joe biden: hunter is this technically a crack pipe?
Hunter biden: no dad, its a "smoking kit."
Cnn: "breaking news....our expert confirms biden administration is not handing out crack pipes."

[gianelogan]

Close the border to stop drugs… we don’t want drug kits. How about medical care and rehab

[HandleThiSS]

Lol. "We need to combat the opioid addiction"
They never go after the pharmaceutical companies, prescribers, pharmacists and insurers.

[lisaalane]

Saving lives with lip balm? I wish I had had that in my crash cart when I worked ER.

[kaponogates]

Just saw the kit, contains a crack pipe, meth pipe, needles, alcohol pads, lip balm, and peppermints. The lies are too much

[drunktamale]

First things first, if it’s a “smoking kit” why would you need sterile needles? Secondly if it’s a “epidemic” why not go for the dealers pushing the garbage instead of making it easier to use, I seem to remember a “epidemic” where you shut the country down for 2 years over a cold…

[NobodyNobodyerson]

"Other Materials" So she's avoiding actually telling the truth.

[srocker]

Close the border and the drugs won’t keep pouring in . Craziness!!!

[sharonneitzelt]

Close the damn border to help stop the drugs coming in .

[googleone]

I agree with these kits but arrest the drug predators and criminals, not just users. Drug use or no drug use if theres a violent drug crime charge it

[davidpaglia]

I never realized how keeping a straight face played such a role in her job. I wouldn't be able to breath i'd be laughing so hard trying to get through this
