The Secret Service is investigating after cocaine was found Sunday at the White House. It wasn’t the first time an illicit drug had made it in.
“President Reagan was welcoming my teammates and me at the White House and giving his little speech about how inspirational our victory was. And the cocaine had me floating in my own private world. … I was standing a couple of feet behind him, looking in his hair, thinking, ‘this guy has more dandruff than your average man.’ Thinking thoughts like, ‘I could push him in the head, just a little tap, and make news across the world.’ That’s how high I was,” McLain wrote.
By the late 1960s, Grace Slick was the famously brash and psychedelic singer of Jefferson Airplane hits like “White Rabbit.” But once upon a time, she had been Grace Wing, a student at an elite girls’ finishing school. White House daughter Tricia Nixon was also an alum and decided to have a White House tea party for all the school’s graduates. Slick got her invitation for “Grace Wing” and enlisted her activist friend Abbie Hoffman to accompany her.
