Former FBI agent Timothy Thibault, accused of showing political bias towards Hunter Biden, meets Congress.
EXCLUSIVE: Former FBI Official Meets with House Judiciary Committee
A former senior FBI official, who has become a prime target for Republicans in their investigation of Hunter Biden, made a significant appearance on Tuesday morning. Timothy Thibault, previously an assistant special agent in charge in the FBI’s Washington Field Office, was spotted entering the committee’s meeting room accompanied by two others at around 10 a.m. While they did not entertain any questions, the meeting was attended by Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) and committee member Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL).
Thibault’s presence follows a series of letters sent by House Republicans to the former FBI official, requesting his voluntary appearance for an interview with the committee. However, Thibault’s legal counsel had pushed back against these requests. Committee Republicans are currently investigating allegations that Thibault worked to suppress an inquiry into Hunter Biden during his tenure at the FBI, as well as claims that he exaggerated the number of domestic violent extremism cases handled by the agency.
In January, Jordan had publicly expressed his intention to question Thibault and warned of potential subpoenas if the former FBI official failed to comply. The situation is still developing.
