FBI Director Kash Patel took a blowtorch to James Comey for his Trump assassination Instagram post during a sit-down interview with Fox News host Bret Baier.
Patel warned that copycats are popping up across the country because of James Comey’s “8647” post.
As reported last week, Comey claimed he somehow just stumbled upon a curious formation of shells as he was walking down the beach with his wife.
“We were walking on the beach, we went to the beach to prepare for this week… and we were walking back towards the road and we saw in the sand someone had arranged shells with numbers.
And Patrice, my wife, said, ‘why would someone put an address in the sand?’ and I said, ‘I don’t know’ and we stood over and I said, ‘I think it’s some kind of political message.’”
As the backlash grew stronger, Comey then blamed his wife.
“She said you know, when I was a server – she did a lot of work in restaurants – meant to remove an item from the menu when you ran out of ingredients.
And I said, ‘well to me, as a kid it always meant to leave a place, to ditch a place.’
And she said well that very clever you should take a picture of that and I did and posted it on my Instagram and though nothing more of it until I heard through her that people were saying that it was a call for some sort of assassination which is crazy!”
Secret Service agents interviewed Comey, but nothing came of it.
“Do you know how many agents I have had to take off line chasing down child predators, fentanyl traffickers, and terrorists because across this country people are popping up on social media and think that a threat to the life of the president of the United States is a joke?!” Kash Patel said.
“And they can do it because he did it? That’s what I’m having to deal with every single day,” Patel said.
“And that’s what I’m having to pull my agents and analysts off because he thought it was funny to go out there and make a political statement.”
