Former FBI Director James Comey faces indictment for allegedly threatening President Trump via an Instagram post of seashells spelling “eighty-six forty-seven”—a phrase his defense argues is protected political speech, not a threat. Prosecutors say a reasonable person would interpret it as a serious intent to harm, while Comey insists he opposed violence and removed the post without realizing the numbers could be linked to harm. His legal team is filing motions to dismiss, citing selective prosecution and warning the case could chill political dissent. With arraignment set for late September, Comey maintains his innocence amid heightened scrutiny over his past role in investigations involving the President.
