Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche announced today a two-count indictment against former FBI Director James Comey from the Eastern District of North Carolina for threats against President Donald Trump. [Indictment Here]
According to the Press Release: […] “The Indictment includes two counts, first in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 871, alleging that James Comey, 65, knowingly and willfully made a threat to take the life of, and to inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States. This charge alleges that on May 15, 2025, by publicly posting an image over the internet via Instagram depicting “86 47”, which a reasonable recipient who is familiar with the circumstances would interpret as a serious expression of an intent to do harm to the President of the United States.
The Indictment also charges Comey in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 875(c), that James Comey consciously disregarded a substantial risk that his communication would be viewed as threatening violence, and that he knowingly transmitted a communication in interstate commerce that contained a threat to injure the person of another, which a reasonable recipient who is familiar with the circumstances would interpret as a serious expression of an intent to do harm to a person.” (SOURCE)
James Comey is charged with Threatening the President in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 871(a) and Transmitting a Threat in Interstate Commerce in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 875(c). If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.
Additionally, similar to the criminal referral connected to former ICIG Michael Atkinson, today’s grand jury indictment creates a pressure point for ongoing DOJ investigations into additional related matters concerning FBI Director James Comey.
Hey Gov Whitmer, how you doin?
If you can indict her you break open 2020 election fraud.
Perfect. I posted her photo up above
THIS, ABSOLUTELY! 💯%. She is an evil witch!
The boys in School at Forest Hills called her “Stretchen Gretchen”
I bet your imagination can figure that out.
Please, please, please, destroy this witch and her two other members of the coven.
Comey is so many bad things I cannot begin to cuss and swear and say all the nasty things about him I’d like to.
But for him to write “86 47” in the sand by using sea shells, take a photo of it, and then post that photo online was the act of a terrorist.
The left seems to think that Comey including commentary on the shells in his post — as if they just serendipitously came into spelling something out — is just peachy. We all know insanity rules the leftist collective.
For Comey to write, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” whether he set each shell in place or not, then send the photo and his remark out to radical socialists who have a killing field mindset, makes him a co-conspirator to every attempted murder against President Trump.
Comey thinks he is above the law. I pray the law does not prove him right.
We can hope until we are blue in the face, but fact is this will go nowhere. Only thing we can hope for is the financial hit he may take by his lawyers.
I noted in his response that he basically pleaded with the judiciary to save his sorry arse.
Don’t worry, vengeance is the lords, he promised. We are to pray for this soul.
Soros, or someone like him, will pay the bill.
well, using the process is the punishment seems to be the American Government way now, if it was good for them, it can be good for us. (Not saying its right, but it is a tool being used).
I am aware that other people have had something like this “fall through”… but Comey is not a regular person, his position and his platform sending this out in passive agreement….. well, yeah.. to me…Treason
kinda hoping it may- astoundingly- go somewhere now
Exactly. Posting it for the public and adding the “cool” commentary, then defending his supposed ignorance instead of apologizing is nothing but the act of a covert terrorist.
Comey is a malignant weenie. He is vicious man pretending he is virtuous .
He would not hesitate to prosecute someone for the very crimes he has committed.
AKA a malignant narcissist, his passive-aggressive antics being classic hallmarks.
WWJD? Pray for him, that’s what our lord would do. That’s what I am doing. I am praying for his repentance. These people’s hearts are so sick they cannot see light before them.
IMO, this is the warm-up act. While it has several purposes, the end result is to keep him looking over his shoulder waiting for the next shoe to drop. Making his miserable is before the next act opens is likely the primary purpose. Russiagate is the prize.
Look at his wife and daughters and maybe James did do it but his radical pink ear hat wearing wife would certainly do it or his SDNY daughter.
Just consider thisComey graduated from William and Mary. (Not far from Camp Peary, “The Farm” and just down the peninsula from Quantico.
“Oh, no. William and Mary won’t do.”~ Steely Dan 1973
Loving referred to as William and Larry.
So DOJ needed an indictable offense that would take comey out of the realm of the lawless dc activist judges…? Looks like the 2-tiered justice system came down a level for a wanker who thought he was above all laws. Sweet justice….
God bless the Republic
No DC for thee…James Comeee!
Tulsi comments on this. She’s fantastic.
Thanks for posting!
Wonder if anything in over-CONfident Comey!s written books and or recorded speeches will help give him away.
-arrogant thug….creep
I’m pretty confident that this “shells” prosecution is just the beginning for him. The well runs deep for this traitor, and I’m guessing they will use it all. I’m so thrilled to see some aggressive action after the wasted year+ of Blondie.
Crudely put, this is a ‘hand that cradles the bollocks’ prosecution. Once he feels it, knows it won’t be slapped away by an equally corrupt judge, and knows what comes next (given it’s SOP for the DS) he’ll talk.
As for the ‘wasted years year’ I don’t think it was. I think what we’re seeing now is a wave of prosecutions produced by a diligent demolition team who’ve been working quietly away, laying the charges for a controlled cascade collapse. In fact I’d argue that some of the invective against Bondi was a classic deception ruse that convinced the DOJ stay-behind snakes that she was ‘one of them’, and had indeed ‘wasted a year’.
The change in leadership was anticipated by LawFare, but the scale of the work that her team had been doing building the foundations of the cases, and now revealed in a chain of prosecutorial detonations, must have the Eisen mob reeling.
I know some may think my take is overly-optimistic, and I’m sure in certain aspects it is, but in my defence I’ve often found that an understanding of someone’s background can be critical in giving an insight into what they’re doing and how they intend to do it. Trump’s past is construction, he knows how to build and how to demolish structures that have stood for decades, he’s also highly experienced in the world of TV that thrives on deception, and finally he’s experienced the way the DS operates.
Put all of those elements together, then allow a four year planning period and the divine element that motivates Team Trump, and you’ve created a plan with such synergistic force that it is capable of achieving a paradigm shift unequalled in modern political history. The DS could soon be literally looking at the rubble of their century old project, a tower built on hubris and taken down by their nemesis in less than a term.
Comment of the Day: Thanks for putting your coherent thoughts in writing this morning.
I’m amazed that Todd is getting so much done. I’m hoping Comey finally pays the price for all of his wrong doing!
Starting with HRC’s illegal email server …
we will all pay a price for what we have done. We will answer to a much higher authority than man one day. I am storing up treasure in heaven. Not here.
This should cost him another $100,000.
To indict on just a post with a photo seems like a long shot. Any chance Comey was stupid enough to buy the shells from a beachside souvenir store and feds found proof?
Just what I was thinking, especially with his demonic minders in DC.
Were Comey to have posted “Nice family, be a shame if something happened to them” with a nice picture of the Trump family be a long shot?
This! I was saying this to my friends when this first got posted by that dingus. Comey is just dopey enough to do something like that. Those shells are not ‘random’ from the beach just due to the even coloration and similarity in size. The odds of finding those in a random pile?… gimme a break. Those indeed are some kind of decorative shells sold in all sorts of knick-knack shops in beach towns.
This fool surely bought these himself. He is surely also dumb enough to use a credit card/phone-tap. As long as the FBI/investigators don’t just half-butt the field-work, they should be able to find the store and the transaction.
Its bad enough if he did just happen to find them on the beach, I think it elevates the crime to actually go out and purchase them for the expressed purpose of making the threat. I could also argue that it would take a very deranged mind to scour the beach to find such similarly sized/colored shells if they can’t find a financial transaction for their purchase. Imagine some nutjob spending hours on the beach looking for such nicely matched shells!
That should give the prosecution two good working theories to present at trial:
1) was he dumb enough to deliberately plan, buy and execute the arrangement?
OR
2) was he obsessed enough to scour the beach for hours, maybe even days?.. to find such nicely matched shells?
Either goes a long way towards the whole mens-rea angle.
It is an interesting photo. Notice there are no animal tracks within the sea shells, which means either the animals avoided the shells or the shells were put down “recently”, after the animal tracks and before any wind could have covered the shells. It also took some intent / time to go find the different kinds / colors of shells.
Or 3) they were from a collection of memorabilia seaside vacation gifts over the years, possibly from his daughter at the SDNY.
Depends on how many shells are on that beach.
A judge can’t easily override a grand jury’s indictment based on the judge’s idea of evidence alone. Doing so undermines the whole purpose of grand juries.
What they usually do is find a flaw in the case filing, etc. With the last Comey case, it was the interim appointment of Halligan and her lawful authority in signing the indictment. Bondi bothched that one IMO. In this case, the DOJ attorney, Ellis Boyle is also interim but it looks like they did everything correctly. He does have authority to sign the indictment and he appears to have been submitted to the Senate for confirmation within the proper time limits. My understanding (which may not be 100% correct) is that the 120 day interim clock stops once an interim DOJ attorney is submitted for confirmation. So the Senate doing its usual foot dragging should not be a factor.
It’s is a bit concerning that over 70% of these DOJ attorney positions are still interim. This is a sort of Lawfare they use now — drag out the appointments in hopes something isn’t done 100% to the letter of the interim appointment law so cases can be thrown out.
I think part of the plan here (just speculation) is to go for as many grand jury indictments against the conspirators as possible. Start weighing them down. Start creating costs and reasons for individuals to flip. Comey is certain to be indicted as part of the bigger conspiracy case(s) grand juries in Florida are supposed to be hearing — assuming those grand juries indict.
Getting these grand juries outside of DC and other heavy blue areas is a key part of this.
The other angle I heard speculated on Newsmax is, with the indictment, they can now subpoena phone records, etc. Chances are Comey, Mr. Smugness that he is, said something to someone about what he really meant.
This is the other reason to get indictments: Evidence and discovery can reveal a lot that may also help other cases. Another area where you have to do everything by the book though.
Bondi was not up to this level IMO. Blanche seems to be. It cannot be purely coincidental that with Bondi out and Blanche in, we see a number of things now moving. Trump wasted precious time appointing Bondi IMO.
Blanche is a horrible public speaker.
I would tend to agree BUT listening the other day his hesitation in answering questions is his legal shield. He plays close to the vest but is a litttle to refinded to fill the air with witicisms or a weave LOL
I don’t drink, but I’d highly entertain having a celebratory glass the day I see this obnoxious jacka$$ in chains and a prison jumpsuit.
I have always been interested in how Comey was able to skate on the fact that he signed off on a FISA warrant in the fall of 2016 and then briefed Trump in 2017 of some of the sorts of things that he would have to worry about as President, things like the salacious and unverifed Dossier.
Wait, what ? You knowingly used an unverified dossier as a basis for applying to renew a FISA warrant ?!
We need the Fort Pierce Florida Grand Jury to begin producing indictments. July 2026 is the 10-year mark for Hillary setting up the “Get Trump” trap with President Obama.

That MS Now piece is comical. Still hanging their hat on “Russia! Russia!” and Mueller.
They ignore the hidden classified docs that Tulsi has uncovered and the burn bags.
Also laughable that they’re gnashing teeth over possibly vague or flimsy allegations. And they must be politically targeting since it’s all Obama people! Well, yeah … who do you think is going to abuse power to try and retain power against Trump? Then when you consider how they actually changed laws to try and get Trump in NY and the Georgia sham. No flimsiness or vagueness there.
Michael Atkinson and the unknown Eric Ciarmarella: A narrative that doesn’t fit tougether!
I Prelude: FBI’s Washington D.C. field office submitted request to Public Integrity ai Main Justice to open a preliminary Clinton Foundation probe on 1/29/16
On 5/17/16 and 7/16/16 Chairman Grassley wrote two letters to then FBI Director James Comey about public corruption issues. Both letters (and the possible answers) are not found on provided server.
On 12/15/25 Chairman Grassley [1] followed up on his 7/18/25 letter to AG Bondi/Director Patel (neither letter nor their answers are online available).
Exhibition 2 (pp 17-40) shares “The Clinton Foundation Invastigation” from 4/21/10 to 1/9/20, written by redacted FBI staff. In essence, hundreds of documented events laying out the repeated political obstruction those agents faced from FBI/DOJ leadership. whether Secretary Clinton was engaged in a pay-to-play corruption scheme involving her family foundation.
II. USAO-DC Michael Atkinson has been ask to support the initiation of a Preliminary Clinton Foundation probe
In Exhibit 1 (pp 7-19) of Chairman Grassly’s letter to AAG Blanche/Director Patel from 4/27/26 we find redacted opening from 1/29/16:
Prosecturial Opinion (p 15):
Possible Violations (p 18)
III. FBI’s Little Rock’s preliminary findings from 1/29/18
Within Exhibit 2 (pp 19-62), persons who were involved (pp 23-24), entities (p 25), and donors (pp 47-49) are labeled out
{1] 12/15/25: Grassley to DOJ, FBI – Clinton Foundation
[2] Grassley to DOJ FBI – Uranium One et al.
There will be a conga-line of lawfare lizard lawyers jockeying to defend BIG JIM “pro-bono” or at substantially reduced rates.
The left will do the go fund me route.
Will he have to claim this money as income?
good. they will be occupied and cant be engaged in other activities
Do they have enough lawyers to defend all the potential targets brought before non washington courts.
They have been sucessful on the home field and when they initiate the game and choose the refs .Maybe they are not that good . Playing poker with your stacked and marked deck you will always win and look like a genius. The AG just sat down to the table and unwrapped a fresh set of Bicycles.
—–Eastern District of North Carolina—-
There should be a third count for utter stupidity and obvious mental illness.
Maybe the “Cardinal” should call up the Pope
I’m ambivalent about these charges, but here is the positive side:
It is hoped that this will not preclude him from being charged with the much greater crimes he needs to stand trial for.
And one last crucial point: when will the son of a bitch be perp walked?
My money is on the swamp finding a skell to come forward and say he was the one who placed the shells, not Comey. And the swamp will manufacture all the necessary receipts to prove the dupe was in the area at the time of the text photo from Comey.
Or worse, the case won’t hold and Comey smirks as he walks away.
doesnt matter if he placed them (Although proof of that cinches the case) just that he publicised it. My guess is a search of his legal career and in a sworn statement or testimony somewhere is multiple references to 86ing somebody.
I know it takes time to build cases but for something this blatant, no way! It has to be the leadership change at the DOJ?
So, Blanche chose charges on which he will lose, and say, “We tried.” And the deep state operative will go free. Something for everyone.
I pray it is not so cynical as that.
Comey and Morens Indicted? Color Me Skeptical
Benjamin Bartee
Apr 29, 2026
“…The Comey investigation, however, doesn’t pertain to his well-documented directing of the Russiagate McCarthyite witch hunt designed to subvert the democratic process during the 2016 election; it’s about an Instagram post containing the cryptic phrase “8647,” an alleged reference to assassinating Trump. My prediction: Comey’s well-paid lawyers are going to argue it was innocuous, a sympathetic jury will bite, and he’s going to skate — assuming it ever gets to trial at all….”
https://armageddonprose.substack.com/p/comey-and-morens-indicted-color-me
Lets see they now have Comeys Personnel Phone the entire contents of which have been review by a third party.
that review is designed to limit acess to his personnel unrelated life. So what is pertinet to the case?
Frame of mind: Any rant or statement indicating anger frustration or desire to inflict literal figerative or imaginery damage to trump.
Moive: Any indication of concern he had that there could be a personel or financial or political damage to his intrests by Trump.
Fortehought: Any planning or discussion of this act or any other conspiracies to act in a way to hurt injure kill or damage Trump.
Actions: Any record or explanations of actions taken to act in a way to hurt injure kill or damage Trump.
Thats the best my non legal mind can come up with for what kind of discovery they can do on that camera phone of his My guess is their is an existing piece of builerplate for this.
Marcie if you are lurking am i right about evidence search of phones boilerplate?
When arrogance marries stupidity James Comey is the result!
why can’t we just get him on a real crime instead?
Now do Alex Soros for his pic of $47 and a bullet hole he tweeted or put on instagram.
Saint Comey: The world’s most sanctimonious man.
James Comey is not a good man in any way, shape, or form.
I started to call him a weasel, but that would put Comey and a weasel on a level playing field.
Weasels do what they do out of instinct.
Comey did what he did because he willingly chose to do it.
We are all sinners. Some of us are more corrupt than others.
All of us have done things we should not have done.
Honestly, I would love to see Mr. Comey realize the error of his ways, repent, and accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior.
That does not mean he shouldn’t get some time for the error of this ways.
Whether comey gets indicted or not, he has to dig into his pockets to pay for defense attorneys. Like Michael Flynn, these cases can drag on for months and years. Comey isn’t in govt employ any longer, and AFAIK, can offer nothing in return for free legal work. The process is the punishment, and may he continue with the rest of his life broke and destitute until he no longer breathes air.
We can only hope comey goes to prison. Ex fbi, cops, etc. do not fair well in stir. If he goes to prison, I hope the inmates give him a rousing welcome and special treatment throughout his sentence.
So much for the ruse about interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan.
I still say put him in a 6x6x6 cell with rounded corners so he can never stretch out and play Trump speeches on a loop 24/7.
The message actually looks like it was written with pebbles.
Several Legal opinion pieces have said it’s a first amendment issue. I disagree. The first amendment doesn’t allow slander, liable, calls to violence or harm. The posting on any social media platform with hundreds of followers and re-posting of the image is in my eyes is a clear threat. I know a gentleman who was prosecuted for a chat between him and others on a facebook posting for suggesting Obama could be eliminated with a long range fire arm. He did five years for that.
Nothing will Come(y) of this.
Nothing.
