Legal experts are pushing back on skepticism surrounding the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, arguing the Department of Justice would not have brought the case without meeting key legal thresholds.
"Lots of folks are saying the case is going nowhere, but, way too early to reach that conclusion," former Democratic U.S. Attorney John Fishwick, who served in Virginia during the Obama administration, said, cautioning against prematurely dismissing the case.
The indictment, brought last month in the Eastern District of North Carolina, alleged Comey, a longtime Trump nemesis, threatened the president and delivered interstate communications containing threats when he posted a photo on Instagram of seashells reading "8647" last year.

As I have said in prior postings, the issue here is the intent with which Comey constructed his little "86 47" seashell design. That's going to open up a lot of evidence that would otherwise be inadmissible of Comey's prior illegal activities that were all directed at framing and destroying Trump. The trial could be one huge circus where much of the conspiracy behind Russiagate gets exposed.

Why 86 47 instead of 25 47?
The term 86 45 has a history.
