Ex-FBI Director James Comey Under Probe Following "8647" Post; Trump Officials Call It Death Threat

The United States Secret Service has launched an investigation into former FBI Director James Comey following allegations that he incited violence against President Donald Trump in a now-deleted Instagram post, according to a report by The New York Post. Comey, dismissed by Trump during his first term in office, had shared a photo showing seashells arranged to form the number "8647." Officials from the Trump administration, along with President Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., viewed Comey's post as a threat to the president's life. In a statement posted on Instagram, Comey said he was unaware that the numbers could be linked to violence.
