Tulsi Gabbard asserts that former FBI Director James Comey was fully aware of his actions when he issued an “86 47” warning against President Trump and insists that Comey should be “incarcerated.”
According to reports from RedState, Comey subtly suggested violence against the President through a social media post. He shared an image of a seashell pattern spelled out as “86 47,” claiming it was a coincidence he encountered during a beach walk.
The “86” in this context signifies a desire to “eliminate,” with some interpreting it as a call for violent removal. Comey has refuted any awareness of this malicious interpretation, a claim that seems unlikely considering his role as the former FBI director. This issue was widely discussed in 2020 when Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer had a similar “86 45” arrangement on display in her office.
He knew what he was doing.

Gabbard went scorched earth on Comey during an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters earlier this evening, saying his social media post was a “veiled call to action to murder the sitting president of the United States.”
The former Democrat congresswoman stressed the importance of taking the comments seriously, especially with the context of two assassination attempts against President Trump in the past year.
“The dangerousness of this, Jesse, cannot be underestimated,” she said.
