James Comey’s Riddle in the Sand

"He is about to experience the hell he has put so many other Americans through."

 The American Spectator  

Comey may be criminally charged and/or convicted. But, even if he isn’t, he is about to undergo the absolute and ruinously expensive hell that he and his agents have put so many others through. For, in our system of justice, even at the investigative phase, the process is the punishment.


"On April 11, 2025, Aliakbar Mohammed Amin was arrested in Georgia for allegedly threatening to kill Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and her family. He was charged with transmitting interstate threats after sending text messages targeting Gabbard, her husband, President Trump, and the White House.

"The messages included statements such as “You and your family are going to die soon” and “Prepare to die, you, Tulsi, and everyone you hold dear. America will burn.” Federal agents searched his social media and found similar threats as well as images of a firearm pointed at photos of Gabbard and her husband. A firearm was recovered from his home during a search. He is in custody pending trial and faces up to five years in prison if convicted.

"Amin has been charged pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Sec. 875(c) which provides, in relevant part, the following:

Donkey Hotey
(c) Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication containing any threat to kidnap any person or any threat to injure the person of another, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

"This statute prohibits threats sent through interstate systems such as text messages, emails, or social media. However, under the relevant caselaw, it must be proven that the defendant transmitted the communication with the purpose of issuing a threat or with knowledge or reckless disregard that it would be interpreted as a threat. Also, the transmitted communication must convey a serious expression of intent to commit unlawful violence as distinguished from hyperbole, political speech, or idle talk.

"Which brings us to May 15, 2025, when — like an empty-headed, attention-seeking 13 year old — former FBI Director James Comey posted a photograph on Instagram showing seashells arranged on the beach to form the numbers “8647.” Comey captioned the picture as follows: “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.” (RELATED: James Comey’s Insane ‘86 47’ Threat)

"The post was deleted shortly thereafter due to backlash from those who interpreted it as a threat against Donald Trump, the 47th president, with “86” being slang for “get rid of” or “kill.” Comey then issued a follow-up statement on Instagram saying, “I posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on the beach walk, which I assumed were a political message. I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down.” . . .

86 47 and what madness the U.S. is coming to   

. . ."Suffice it to say that Trump has been triumphant on many things, but the judiciary will likely be this country’s executioner. As Lincoln once noted, “If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we must live through all times or die by suicide.” But Abe probably didn’t see the judiciary as the entity doing the euthanizing."

So where are the Democrats who condemn James Comey's implicit call to kill the president? 

. . ."The only thing that can be concluded here is that they condone these threats. That would correspond to many polls of Democrat ideas and attitudes as their party goes downhill. One poll, from the University of Buckingham, taken shortly after the first assassination attempt on President Trump, found that a third of Democrats were sorry the assassin missed the president. This tells us all we need to know about the atmosphere in that party."
