Every case this prick ever worked on should be tossed.
Every agent who knew about this prick and said nothing should
have their head removed and placed in their lap.
Legal counsel for an FBI agent ,who retired last week following
allegations that he tried to run interference into the Hunter
Biden laptop probe, are denying reports that he was politically
motivated.
Assistant Special Agent in Charge Tim 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.
Morrison & Foerster LLP, who is representing Thibault clarified
that their client retired from the FBI and was not fired, nor
forced to retire or asked to retire. Morrison said Thibault
turned in his security badge and walked out of the FBI field
office with two long-time special agent friends.
Thibault, who had been with the FBI for more than 30 years, was
eligible for retirement and informed his supervisors about a
month ago of his intentions, Morrison said.
The firm pointed out that Thibault had led and supervised
multiple investigations into public corruption by both Democrats
and Republicans.
Morrison said the Office of Special Counsel is investigating
allegations that Thibault’s social media posts potentially
violated the Hatch Act, which restrains the political activities
of federal employees.

"Thibault is cooperating with that investigation, urges the
Office to complete its review, and expects to be fully
exonerated," Morrison said, adding that Thibault, regardless of
retirement, welcomes any investigation into allegations that he
"took certain actions in investigations for partisan political
reasons."
"He firmly believes that any investigation will conclude that
his supervision, leadership and decision making were not
impacted by political bias or partisanship of any kind,"
Morrison said. "He is confident that all of his decisions were
consistent with the FBI’s highest standards for ethics and
integrity."
The firm reiterated that Thibault was not involved in either the
planning or execution of the FBI raid on former President
Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida earlier this month.
The firm also said Thibault "did not supervise the investigation
of Hunter Biden," which, they added, is now being handled by the
Baltimore Field Office.
"In particular, Mr. Thibault was not involved in any decisions
related to any laptop that may be at issue in that
investigation, and he did not seek to close the investigation,"
Morrison said.
