Comey was appointed FBI Director in 2013 under President Barack Obama and was fired by President Trump during his first term in May 2017. Trump was unhappy that he was being investigated over his ties to Russia, ties that were in fact true, even if the president now calls them all a hoax.

The former FBI director wrote "cool shell formation on my beach walk" on Instagram with an image of seashells that read "8647".

U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard called for former FBI director James Comey to be "put behind bars" on Thursday. The post Tulsi Gabbard Says James Comey Should Be ‘Put Behind Bars’ for ‘Issuing a Hit’ on Trump first appeared on Mediaite.
