The FBI, which is now considered a left-wing extension of the Democrat Communist Party by most Americans, is under an incredible amount of scrutiny after the role they just played in the unprecedented Trump Mar-a-Lago raid.
Not only has political bias appeared to have played a monumental part in their decision to raid Trump’s private Florida residence, but the Director Of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, was not at all aware that the raid was going to happen, leading several members of the GOP to believe that the FBI acted with malicious intent.
But the political stunt isn’t the first time the bureau has run defense for the Left, and it appears that whistleblowers from the agency, who have now confirmed that the leadership at the top is compromised, seem to be spooking their colleagues into resigning, including an FBI agent who was accused of bias in handling the investigation into Hunter Biden’s laptop.
According to Fox News, FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Timothy Thibault is no longer with the bureau. Thibault retired over the weekend, according to a source familiar with the matter. He was walked out of the building on Friday, which is standard procedure, per the source.
Thibault’s name has been in the news for his alleged bias and allegations that he tried to run interference in the Hunter Biden investigation.
Thibault was named by Senate Judiciary ranking member Chuck Grassley in a July 18 letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland. Grassley cited whistleblowers who alleged a pattern of political bias from high-ranking officials, including Thibault.
According to Grassley, the whistleblowers said that DOJ and FBI employees must follow strict substantial factual predication guidelines to open an investigation and that Thibault did not follow these guidelines.
“As you are aware, Assistant Special Agent in Charge Tim Thibault is not the only politically biased FBI agent at the Washington Field Office,” Grassley wrote. He added that “the FBI answers to Congress and the American people.”
During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing earlier this month, FBI Director Christopher Wray called the whistleblowers’ allegations “deeply troubling.” He promised that the whistleblowers would be protected and removed Thibault from his supervisory role.
Thibault was one of 13 assistant special agents in charge at the Washington field office. He was not involved in the FBI raid on former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate earlier this month at any level.
