Former FBI Director James Comey faces fierce backlash after posting a cryptic message targeting President Trump. His Instagram photo of seashells arranged as “8647” sparked outrage across conservative circles, with officials calling it a veiled threat. The controversy highlights the left’s escalating hostility toward America’s elected leadership.
President Trump slammed Comey’s actions as a clear call for violence. “A child knows what that meant,” Trump said, accusing Comey of pushing assassination rhetoric. This isn’t Comey’s first attack on Trump—he’s repeatedly smeared the president since being fired for incompetence in 2017.
MAGA patriots quickly decoded the numbers: “86” means eliminate, and “47” refers to Trump as the 47th president. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed a federal probe into the post, emphasizing that threats against leaders won’t be tolerated. Comey’s allies claim it was innocent, but conservatives aren’t buying it.
Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields tore into Comey during Friday’s “American Agenda,” calling the post reckless and unhinged. Fields highlighted the left’s pattern of normalizing hatred against Trump supporters. “This isn’t just about shells on a beach—it’s about the radical left’s war on democracy,” he said.
Comey deleted the post and claimed he “didn’t realize” the numbers’ violent meaning. Conservatives mocked this excuse, noting Comey’s decades in law enforcement. If a Trump supporter had posted similar symbols, media outlets would demand prison time. The double standard is glaring.
The incident exposes the left’s desperation as Trump surges in polls. With Biden’s failures crushing America, Democrats resort to intimidation tactics instead of debating ideas. Comey’s stunt mirrors the coordinated smear campaigns that targeted Trump since 2016.
Legal experts say Comey could face charges if investigators prove intent. Meanwhile, Newsmax viewers praise Trump’s strength in confronting deep state operatives. Every patriotic American must reject this toxic rhetoric and stand with their president.
This controversy proves the left fears Trump’s America First agenda. Comey’s post wasn’t art—it was a wake-up call. Conservatives won’t let coastal elites silence their voices or threaten their leader. The silent majority is done staying silent.
