"Several FBI whistleblowers say that the agency’s probe into
Hunter Biden was internally sabotaged during the 2020 election in order
to derail the investigation, after agents wrongfully deemed verified
evidence as “disinformation” to ignore.
According to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), agents investigating Hunter
“opened an assessment which was used by an FBI headquarters team to
improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation
and caused investigative activity to cease,” adding that his office
received “a significant number of protected communications from highly
credible whistleblowers” regarding the investigation.
A whistleblower also said Thibault “ordered closed” an “avenue of additional derogatory Hunter Biden reporting,” according to Grassley, even though “all of the reporting was either verified or verifiable via criminal search warrants.” The
senator said Thibault “ordered the matter closed without providing a
valid reason as required” and that FBI officials “subsequently attempted
to improperly mark the matter in FBI systems so that it could not be
opened in the future,” according to the disclosures.
The whistleblowers say investigators from FBI headquarters were “in
communication with FBI agents responsible for the Hunter Biden
information targeted by Mr. Auten’s assessment,” and that their findings
on whether the claims were in fact disinformation were placed “in a
restricted access sub-file” in September 2020, according to Grassley,
who added that the disclosures “appear to indicate that there
was a scheme in place among certain FBI officials to undermine
derogatory information connected to Hunter Biden by falsely suggesting
it was disinformation.“ NW
