Former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey was accused of threatening Trump by writing “86 47” with seashells, he appeared in court yesterday for the second time, which stems from his infamous “86 47” post in May 2025

US prosecutors say the post amounted to a threat against Trump, while Comey says he remains innocent stating the Instagram post saying ‘8647’ was a ‘cool shell formation’

Comey had deleted the seashell photo in 2025 and denied the allegations

President Trump directly calls out James Comey, accusing him of knowing exactly what the phrase means and questioning whether he misled the FBI about it.
