An anti-Trump FBI agent, previously identified, reportedly played a critical role in initiating and advancing the bureau's investigation related to the 2020 election, linking President Donald Trump to the probe without sufficient predication, according to whistleblower disclosures obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley.
The investigation, known as 'Arctic Frost,' was formally opened at the FBI on April 13, 2022, with internal FBI emails and documents shared by Grassley and Sen. Ron Johnson revealing FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Timothy Thibault's involvement in initiating the case.
