They failed egregiously last year so now they're claiming an Instagram post of seashells Comey saw on a beach walk were an assassination threat. If you're laughing now, congrats, you're sane. So what actually happened?
First of all, Comey didn't even place the shells, which read "8647." He just took a pictures of it and put it up on Instagram. Some people interpreted it as a threat that Trump (the "47" part of it) should be "86'd." This is originally restaurant slang for being out of a menu item but now can be interpreted as "get rid of." There isn't even any violence directly implied.
But when Comey found out some were interpreting it that way he took it down, explaining he was unaware of any implied threat of violence.
Look, I'm no fan of Comey, who I feel interfered in the last days of the 2016 campaign regarding Hillary's emails, effectively putting his thumb on the scales. But this indictment smacks of revenge. Good thing it's so weak on its face it is sure to fail.
PS: A judge just gave Comey's daughter, a fired former Justice Dept. lawyer, to sue the Dept. over her firing.

Not a fan of Comey but this is absurd an abuse of power and malicious prosecution. Real banana republic stuff. We're talking seashells on a beach people. Que up the fake outrage from you know who.

I do know who - you …all the fake outrage is coming from you and all your rabid leftist hack comrades, as evidenced by your post and the others.

No. That's not right. Try again. Actually, please don't. We know where you stand. In the underground parking garage in the extremist right-wing bubble.

Your own fake outrage and continue the fake outrage.

She's the Official Puppet of TER.  Zero self control. Zero brains. Zero integrity. She's a laughing stock

Takes the bait again and denies it. His level of self-delusion can only be explained by the amount of Santorum he has felched at his personal Glory Hole.

In the 2016 election, Comey announced the reopening of the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails, unduly influencing independent voters and leading to Trump's election. Now, Comey is being pursued by the very king he helped put on the throne. Karma's a bitch!

"James Comey’s confidence that Hillary Clinton would win the presidency informed his decision to notify Congress just 11 days before election day that an investigation of her emails had been reopened – an act many, including Clinton, believe instead helped usher Donald Trump into the White House." - The Guardian

Fast forward . . .
"Yes, multiple officials in the Trump administration used private email accounts and unofficial messaging apps for government business. At least six high-level advisers, including Jared Kushner and former aides Steve Bannon and Reince Priebus, used personal email for White House matters. This practice continued into 2025 with officials using personal Gmail accounts, and continued into the 2024-2025 transition period." - Gemini AI
.
"Yes, a Pentagon inspector general review confirmed that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth used the Signal messaging app for official business, including sharing sensitive information about military strikes in Yemen. He used the app on his personal phone and a, sometimes, unsecured desktop connection within the Pentagon, involving, in some instances, family members and close associates in chat groups, which sources say violated Department of Defense regulations and created security risks." - Gemini AI

Yet no one in the Trump administration was disciplined.

...but...I thought the GOP was the party of cutting waste.

seizing millions in assets from the Blue State fraudsters and send many of them to jail.  

Millions in settlement fees to Comey...hang in there dude. You're gonna be a rich SOB
Alot of people will be getting rich in about 3 years

I don’t see a jury convicting him on this charge.
