Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey is under federal investigation for an Instagram post that some interpret as a call to assassinate President Donald Trump.
On Thursday, the deep state operative posted a cryptic Instagram photo of seashells arranged to spell out “86 47,” with a caption that read, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.”
But patriots and truth-seekers on social media weren’t fooled, quickly decoding the sinister message: “86” — a known slang term for “to kill” or “get rid of” — paired with “47,” a clear reference to Trump, the 47th President of the United States.
Comey deleted the post after major backlash, and he updated it with an unbelievable comment.
So Comey expects the public to believe that he, a former FBI Director, did not know the meaning of “86.”
The Secret Service, along with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, is now investigating the matter.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem didn’t mince words, blasting Comey on X: “Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump. DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”
Even Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett demanded action, posting, “Arrest Comey.”
