The Secret Service is investigating former FBI Director James Comey after he was accused Thursday of calling for violence against President Trump in a since-deleted Instagram post.
Comey, who was fired by Trump early in his first term, had posted an image of seashells arranged in the shape of the numerals “8647.”
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem indicated that the Secret Service is now involved in the matter.
“Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump,” Noem wrote on X. “DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”

Comey, who launched the investigation into allegations of collusion between Russia and Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign — which rested on debunked intelligence from the infamous Steele dossier — claims he “didn’t realize” some would view the post as a call for violence.
“I posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on a beach walk, which I assumed were a political message,” Comey said in a statement, posted on Instagram. “ I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence.”
Book him Dano.
He’s a poor liar.
This idiot served as Deputy Chief of the Criminal Division for the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern NY District from 1987 to 1993 where he helped prosecute the Gambino family...a mafia organization, but claims he had no idea was “86” means.
“which rested on debunked intelligence from the infamous Steele dossier — claims he “didn’t realize” some would view the post as a call for violence.”
Two lies in one sentence. It wasn’t “debunked intelligence”, it was pure fraud he was in on the creation of.
And the second part is a flat ass lie, and his denial is childish for a 64 year old man.
It’s well past time for Jim Comey’s comeuppance.
I hope this is followed through as far as the investigation can go. Let him feel the heat.
What does this guy have to do to get locked up? Good grief.
Liar to the end
The guy is a fraud, and idiot, or a terrorist. Is being an idiot a defense to conspiracy to 86 47.
Maybe they can bankrupt him and his family. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
One thing to remember is that many things, like Russiagate, were not intended to find a result — they were intended to invoke a process that, by its mere weight, would take down a candidate or a President. I see it as poetic that an investigation process is being invoked against Mr. Comey. Enjoy your time in the spotlight, asshole!
LOL. The guy really does think we must be idiots… F him. I don’t care if they convict or not and with. DC jury there is probably no chance of conviction, but charge his slimy ass anyway and make him spend the money on scummy DC lawyers.
REMEMBER:

He probably won’t get in any real trouble, but I wouldn’t cry if he had to drop $10,000 in legal fees over this. What’s lawfare for the goose is lawfare for the gander.
Was he involved in previous assassination attempts? Could this be a message to a sleeper cell?
Comey shouldn’t be worried.
Of all.people, one would think a former FBI Director would know better than to do that.
Especially lame, stupid and ignorant for a previous director of the FBI to blatantly lie like that.
What REALLY Happened: Bill Clinton got there before Comey and arranged the "8647" stones that Comey "found"...
On June 6, 1994, during the 50th anniversary commemoration of D-Day, President Bill Clinton was photographed arranging pebbles in the shape of a cross on Omaha Beach in Normandy, France.
This is all a bogus set-up. I think it has all the earmarks of a Russian disinformation operation! 51 or mmore Democrat operatives agree.
