(CNN) — Former Director of the FBI James Comey on Thursday took down an Instagram post of seashells spelling out the numbers “86 47” after Republicans claimed that it was a threat against President Donald Trump.
The number 86 can often refer to getting rid of or tossing something out, while 47 corresponds to Trump’s current term in office as the 47th president.
“Just James Comey causally calling for my dad to be murdered. This is who the Dem-Media worships. Demented!!!!” Donald Trump Jr. posted on social media.
Comey – who emerged as a Trump critic after the president fired him early in his first term – denied that the picture was a call for violence.
In explaining why he removed the post, Comey wrote on Instagram that he had “posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on a beach walk, which I assumed were a political message.”
“I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down,” he continued.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wrote in a social media post Thursday evening that DHS and the Secret Service are investigating an alleged threat made against Trump by Comey.
“Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUSTrump,” she wrote. “DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”
A spokesperson for the Secret Service told CNN that the agency was aware of the social media posts but would not comment further on protective intelligence matters.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Of course they want to 86 #47. They missed last July.
I hope he had a productive visit with the Secret Service.
Comey, does it feel special to wonder how many of Trump’s hundred million supporters now want to 86 you?
I want tComey to have to testify under oath.
Comey still alive?
Shocking after what he did he hasn’t hanged.
He knew exactly what 86 stood for.
They better make an example out of him or this is gonna continue until someone does it.
20 years minimum. Hard Time.
Wait WHAT, seriously that’s the CNN headline..uproar from Conservatives, seriously..its not like people got pissed cause Comey posted a bad recipe for banana bread..he posted a THREAT to President Trump..a threat that if it had been made against Biden, or Harris, CNN’s headline would have been completely different
Lock him up?
Typical psychopath employing plausible denial. If course he knows to 86 means to eliminate.
sorry
And a former head of the FBI doesn’t know the slang term “86”?
Would “The Bishop” like call for him to be murdered or martyred?
I hope the DOJ uses any Red Flag laws to make sure the violent Comey does not have access to any weapons
It exactly meant kill President Trump. Comey is not that stupid. He knew what it meant. He was the director of the FBI. He knew and he was proud to post it. Comey FAFO and needs to understand no one is above the law. Go get him Patel.
Strange things are afoot at the Circle K..
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God (= 86) created the heaven and the earth.
Of course he did.
He is a liar. And a bad one. He is a threat to the US sitting Pres. Arrest him.
Oh, abd Fon Jr needs to learn how to spell. It’s not causally. It’s casually.
