Assistant Special Agent in Charge (“ASAC”) at the Washington Field Office, Timothy Thibault, likely violated several federal regulations
WHY: Because both of these losers are as partisan as Thibault!
It has come to my attention that while serving in a highly sensitive role that includes threshold decision-making over which Federal public corruption matters are opened for investigation, Assistant Special Agent in Charge (“ASAC”) at the Washington Field Office, Timothy Thibault, likely violated several federal regulations and Department guidelines designed to prevent political bias from infecting FBI matters, including the Attorney General Guidelinesfor Domestic FBI Operations and FBI social media policies.1 Specifically, as illustrated below, based on a review of open-source content, ASAC Thibault has demonstrated a pattern of active public partisanship, such as using his official title for public partisan posts relating to his superiors and matters under the FBI’s purview, that is likely a violation of his ethical obligations as an FBI employee. Accordingly, his actions present a grave risk of political infection and bias in his official decision-making process, creating serious questions with respect to oversight of investigative matters under his purview.
Continuing, Grassley then proceeds to give examples of what the agent, ASAC Thibault, did wrong on social media that shows his partisan activities on social media, such as highly partisan articles that he posted on LinkedIn and posts that he shared on Twitter, such as a Lincoln Project tweet that included the statement, “Donald Trump is a psychologically broken, embittered, and deeply unhappy man.”
Further, Thibault has continued his highly partisan posting since the end of the Trump presidency, posting things such as this recent tweet in which he suggested that Kentucky be given to Russia.
