A top FBI official has stepped down just as House Republicans have announced plans to investigate recent operations and actions at the bureau.
Attributing the decision to wanting to spend more time with his family, he added, “Deciding to retire was not easy, it is extremely difficult to say farewell to the mission and the wonderful people I work with, but in making my decision I knew it is time to hand the reins over to the next generation of FBI employees.”
News of D’Antuono’s retirement comes just weeks after Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee named him as one of nine FBI employees they would “require prompt testimony” from as they seek to investigate potential political bias at the bureau.
“Over the past twenty-one months, we have made several requests for information and documents concerning operations and actions of the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” the congressmen wrote in a Nov. 12 letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray.
“To date, you have ignored these requests, or you have failed to respond sufficiently,” the letter continues. “Please be aware that if our requests remain outstanding at the beginning of the 118th Congress, the Committee may be forced to resort to compulsory process to obtain the material we require.”
At a Nov. 17 press conference announcing the investigation, incoming Oversight Committee Chair Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) said evidence had been uncovered that indicates Biden lied about his knowledge of and participation in those deals.
“As part of our investigation, we have evidence that the finances, credit cards, and bank accounts of Hunter and Joe Biden were commingled, if not shared,” Comer noted.
When asked what his message to Republicans seeking to investigate his family would be, he quipped, “Lots of luck in your senior year, as my coach used to say.”

Attributing the decision to wanting to spend more time with his family
Thats the oldest excuse in the book.
RAT jumping ship.
Think he will repent?
FBI agents respond to duties handed to them from above, including the head of the FBI and the head of the DOJ and the president, and the congressional leaders in the house and senate.
All of the high-end government officials are responsible for the corruption that has been ongoing for more than a decade now, and it’s time to get at them.
Government employees should not be able to retire to avoid answering questions regarding their actions while still employed and paid by the tax-payers.
Wray must be worried about all these strongly worded letters from the R’s.

Confiscate the turd’s passport.
I’m not sure what they’re afraid of. Ultimately, even if there are any criminal charges, a D.C. rat jury would never find them guilty.
Well, if he's like the other compromised thugs in the FBI he would answer the first three hundred questions with "I don't remember".... Isn't that what Comey did?

Stepping down to spend more time with his family lawyers.
/\
Him AND James Baker
( who was fired by musk for hiding tweets in the big release the other day )
.
I was thinking something similar. After the pussies, I mean Republicans, investigate. They will send their findings to the Department of Justice.
Is it necessary to comment on the absurdity of that course?
Nobody fears the GOP investigation.
Congressional Republicans will be howling at the moon—the good news is they will enjoy themselves....obviously in the real world it means nothing.
All he has to do is deny, deny, deny, deny..then after a period of time, switch to “why are you talking about this, it’s old news and distracting from todays issues”...
Then issue orders to the media to drop the story, and bingo, home free...
Anyone scared of a Republican investigation is a wuss..
His work is done,
, now he rides off into retirement sunset to enjoy his rewards.
