Comey: Well, they're back. This time about a picture of seashells on a North Carolina beach a year ago. And this won't be the end of it.
But nothing has changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary. So let's go.

Analysis Summary
Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted a second time, this time over a 2025 Instagram post showing seashells on a North Carolina beach arranged to spell '8647,' which the Trump administration claims constitutes a threat against the president. Comey issued a video statement calling the charges unprecedented and reasserting his innocence. Legal scholars including Jonathan Turley have argued the indictment likely fails First Amendment true threat standards, raising questions about whether the prosecution can meet the constitutional bar for criminal speech prosecution.
