Another whistleblower has emerged, shedding light on behind-the-scenes efforts within the FBI to protect Hunter Biden, and by extension, his father Joe Biden, during the 2020 presidential election. Retired Special Agent Timothy Thibault, formerly the No. 2 supervisor in the FBI’s Washington field office, provided crucial testimony to the House Judiciary Committee. Thibault revealed that the FBI’s Washington field office had a politically connected informant providing information on the Hunter Biden tax case but was instructed to “shut down the source” before the 2020 election.
The identity of this informant remains undisclosed in Thibault’s testimony, but bestselling author Peter Schweizer believes he may be the person referred to based on Thibault’s past comments and recent reporting. Schweizer clarified that his involvement in providing evidence related to potential criminal activity by the Biden family was based on factual information and not driven by political motivations.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan summoned Thibault for the interview as part of an investigation into allegations that U.S. Attorney David Weiss and his team deviated from standard investigative procedures when probing the Biden family’s overseas business dealings.
Despite previous criticisms directed at Thibault, his 25-year service record reflects a nonpartisan approach. He has successfully led investigations into public corruption, overseeing inquiries into figures like Democratic congressmen and the Clinton Foundation. Thibault’s testimony raises concerns about whether the FBI or Justice Department obstructed certain lines of inquiry into the Biden family as Joe Biden prepared to become president.
This revelation adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting that the Biden family received preferential treatment from law enforcement agencies. IRS and FBI agents were reportedly hindered in their investigations into Joe and Hunter Biden, including difficulties obtaining search warrants, due to interference from the Biden transition team. The testimony also highlights the existence of another informant who provided information to the FBI but faced similar suppression.
These allegations of interference and selective enforcement raise serious questions about transparency, accountability, and the impartiality of law enforcement agencies, especially when dealing with politically connected individuals. Investigations into these matters are essential to ensure the integrity of our justice system and the principle that no one is above the law.
