The hammer is starting to fall.
Special Agent in Charge Timothy Thibault is out.
Reports are now breaking that Thibault has been forced out as the coverup of the Hunter Biden laptop story is probed.
Done
Thibault was reportedly canned on Friday, according to the Washington Times, but the reports are just now starting to surface.
The Times reported that Thibault was seen exiting the FBI offices with several “headquarters-looking types” escorting him out.
It was unclear if he resigned or was forced out, but we have to assume the latter considering he was walked off the premises.
Thibault has been with the FBI for 25 years, but he has been on leave for about a month.
This was due to his controversial comments while leading the public corruption unit.
Thibault has been on the radar of Republicans for some time, his name often being mentioned during congressional hearings.
Throughout 2020, Thibault posted negative comments about Trump on his social media.
Since we now know the Hunter Biden probe was slow-walked, at the very least, perhaps the trail of breadcrumbs on this front is leading back to Thibault.
This is a developing story and we will update with new reports as more information becomes available.
