Ex-FBI boss Comey probed over Trump 'threat'

توضیحات:

The Secret Service is investigating former FBI Director James Comey after he was accused of calling for violence against President Trump in a deleted Instagram post. Comey posted an image of seashells arranged in the shape of the numerals "8647"—the number "86" being slang for getting rid of something. Trump, the 47th president, and his officials interpreted the post as a death threat. White House deputy chief of staff Taylor Budowich and Trump’s son Donald Jr. both expressed concern on X, while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed the Secret Service’s involvement. Comey later said he didn’t realize the numbers could be seen as a call for violence, noting he had assumed the post was merely a beach photo and had taken it down. The narrative follows the broader context of Trump’s own experience with a failed assassination attempt in July.
