COMMS? James Comey Posts Very Strange “Taylor Swift” Video Message

Web Desk,

Did we just get more coded “comms” from James Comey?

I think so, and my friend MJ Truth thinks so as well.

Either that or this guy is just a real weirdo, a 64 year old man who is in a family “Swifty” group chat, who attends all her concerts and listens to her songs when he mows the grass.

First of all, I quite doubt that Jim Comey mows his own grass, but I’ll leave that be for a moment.

He just posted a very strange 5+ minute video gushing about how much he loves Taylor Swift and naming his top two favorite songs, and the version of those songs he likes the best.

Do you know any 64 year old real men who would ever post something like this?

It’s damn strange if you ask me.

You can watch the video here and then down below we’ll dig in to what it might mean:

I told you….weird!

The original video can be found on his Substack here (not that I mean to promote it, just giving you the source):  https://substack.com/home/post/p-171202678

Now…what does it mean?

Usually when you see something so bizarre like this it’s because it’s not a real message at all but rather a coded message designed for someone very specific to hear and respond to.

That’s what my friend MJ Truth thinks too.

I think he has an excellent analysis here:

EYES ON… Comey just sent a signal.

James Comey posted a very odd 5 Minute Rant about how Taylor Swift Helps him Cope with his TDS

WHAT’S Interesting is that he said he’s in a “Family’s Swifty Group Chat”, and specifically names two songs that are his favorite
1. All too well, (10 minute Version)
2. Exile, featuring Boni Iver

In 2020, Q revealed that DEEPSTATE operatives and MSM Journalists were communicating via video Game Chat Logs, in this case “Star Wars Commander”, to avoid SIGINT collection.

These chat logs discussed The
@GenFlynn
/Kislyak leak, which was the unauthorized disclosure of intercepted 2016 phone calls between Michael Flynn and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. The leak, publicized in 2017, led to Flynn’s FBI interview and resignation.

The INITIAL Flynn/Kislyak leak was not to David Ignatius – it
was to WaPo reporter Adam Entous, which Q pointed out in the drops.

🔻 MY BEST GUESS

My best guess, Comey just sent out a very desperate signal about where to have private conversations. Only he and whomever the message it was intended for knows exactly what it means/where to go.

Read the chat logs… understand the significance. This is a COMMON course of action for bad actors within the Intel community and reporters to communicate.

Of course this is far from the first time James Comey has posted a veiled message.

This one was much more “on the nose” but do you remember this with his sea shells?

The James Comey Saga Just Got WAY Weirder…Is This Real Life?

I know, if you’re like me you’re sick of seeing James Comey’s face…

Sick of talking about him….

Sick of seeing him back in the news.

I get it.

But I think you’re going to find this very interesting, if not almost impossible to believe.

Some people have theorized that, in fact, this whole saga was just a PR campaign for Comey’s upcoming book, called “FDR Drive”.  You know the old saying that goes “There’s no such thing as bad press.”

Adding fuel to that fire is the fact that if you actually look into Comey’s new book, the plot almost perfectly parallels what happened this week with the 8647 fiasco!

Here’s a quick summary from the book jacket:

So let me get this straight….

James Comey writes a book about a far-right political figure who puts out calls for violence by saying “something should be done” about his enemies, and then people take up that call and people start dying.

Are you kidding me?

We truly are living in a simulation!

Or….this whole thing is just one huge (very poorly imagined) PR stunt.

I always like to check my assumptions and biases, so I asked ChatGPT if it noticed any similarities between the two and it called the parallels “striking”.  Take a look:

🔢 The “8647” Controversy

On May 15, 2025, Comey posted a photo on Instagram showing seashells arranged to form “8647,” captioned “cool shell formation on my beachwalk.” Critics interpreted this as a veiled threat against President Donald Trump, combining “86” (slang for “eliminate”) with “47” (Trump being the 47th president). Comey deleted the post, stating he was unaware of the violent connotation and intended it as a political message. Nevertheless, the Secret Service initiated an investigation, and Trump labeled Comey a “dirty cop,” accusing him of calling for assassination.

📘 FDR Drive: A Synopsis

Released on May 20, 2025, FDR Drive is the third installment in Comey’s Nora Carleton series. The novel follows federal prosecutor Nora Carleton and investigator Benny Dugan as they confront a deadly sect of political extremists. The antagonists include a far-right internet personality who incites violence through disinformation, leading to domestic terror threats. The narrative explores the challenges of prosecuting speech that crosses into incitement and the complexities of combating political extremism.

🔍 Parallels Between Reality and Fiction

The overlap between the “8647” incident and FDR Drive is striking:

  • Themes of Political Extremism: Both the real-life controversy and the novel delve into the dangers of radical ideologies and their potential to incite violence.

  • Disinformation and Its Consequences: Comey’s novel addresses how misinformation can lead to real-world harm, mirroring concerns raised by the interpretation of his Instagram post.

  • Legal and Ethical Dilemmas: FDR Drive explores the fine line between free speech and incitement, a debate echoed in the public’s reaction to Comey’s post. 

These parallels suggest that Comey’s experiences and perspectives inform his fiction, blurring the lines between his real-life controversies and the narratives he crafts.

Meanwhile, here is Comey on Late Night With Stephen Colbert, telling a whopper of a lie that I think not even Colbert believed:

JAMES COMEY: “My wife and I were walking on the beach, and saw those numbers in shells on the beach… somebody else did it. We were on a walk, preparing for this week…she said, why’d somebody put their address in the sand?”

“We looked at it, trying to figure out what it was. She’d long been a server in restaurants. She said, you know what I think it is? A reference to restaurants. When you’d 86 something at a restaurant. I said, no, I remember as a kid, you’d say ’86’ to get out of a place. This place stinks, let’s 86 it.”

“So I said, I think it’s a clever political message. She said, you should take a picture. I said, sure. She said, you should Instagram that. And then, boom.”

It turns out I’m not the only one to pick up on the similarities….

John Berman from CNN pressed Comey on it today.

Take a look

Jim Comey: Actually, it still doesn’t (hit me), that it’s (8647) associated with violence.

Jim Comey: Yeah, I’ve never seen it used in that context or heard it used in that context. Still…

John Berman: How was your interview with the Secret Service about this?

Jim Comey: Oh, good. They’re total pros. I’ve worked with Secret Service for many, many years, and they asked the right questions, trying to understand why I did it. We had a very similar conversation to the one you and I just had.

John Berman: Did you leave thinking that they believed you, or did you leave thinking they still had concerns?

Jim Comey: Well, I don’t have any reason to believe they don’t believe me. And so I feel like they asked

Jim Comey: Right. It’s about a right-wing extremist trying to motivate followers to violence through his words in his broadcast.

John Berman: It’s interesting that your book is about that, and now there is this discussion about speech, things said, and whether it can be motivating toward violence. Yes?

John Berman: How challenging is it to write political fiction now when it seems like almost every sensational political event that could happen has happened in real life?

Jim Comey: Yeah, and some of the stuff that goes on, a journalist being invited to a signal chat. If you put it in your novel, your editor would say, Come on, cut that out. This is fiction, but it’s got to be real. So truth continues to surprise and be stranger than fiction. I’m trying to write very real fiction, so show people.

UPDATE: James Comey Deletes Post, Desperately Tries To Walk Back Call For Trump To Be Assass*nated

You’re gonna love this one….

A couple hours ago, we broke the story that James Comey essentially called for a “hit” on President Trump with this post on Instagram:

BREAKING: James Comey Calls for President Trump’s Assass*nation On Instagram!

In case you missed it, I screenshotted it and posted on X:

Full Instagram screenshot here:

In case you somehow don’t know, “86” is very common slang for saying you want to kill someone.

Exhibits A and B:

And “47” of course refers to:

Let’s just say it’s not exactly a hard message to decode….

Heck, for that matter it’s not even original!

Old Gretchen Whitmer did it back in 2020 with “8645” at the time:

Did Gov. Whitmer Just Threaten Our President? “8645”

So now let’s advance the story.

The former head of the FBI, chief law enforcement agent who worked his way up through countless law enforcement ranks, now claims he just had no idea that “86” had any connotation at all with wanting to kill someone!

How could he have known?

Here’s a closer look at that post where he desperately tries to convince the world (and the FBI and DOJ and Secret Service) that he surely did not just post a call for President Trump to be assassinated:

Sorry, but absolutely NO ONE is buying this.

He must really think we are dumb, to think that anyone in their right mind would believe (1) he just randomly stumbled upon these sea shells on his long beach walk (Lie #1), and (2) he assumed it was a political message, but just had no idea what that message might be, and certainly he had no idea that “86” meant to kill someone (Lie #2), and (3) that any one would accept this really lame explanation and just forget about it and move on….

You kidding me with this?

Does he think we’re that dumb?

Or maybe is HE really that dumb?

I can’t think of any other explanations, but I know two things for damn sure: he didn’t just stumble onto those sea shells on the sea shore, and the former Head of the FBI knows damn well what “86” means.

Heck, my 15-year old son knows that “86” means and probably has since he was 9!

This is WILDLY inappropriate, reckless and potentially criminal behavior, far below what anyone should ever experience from a former Head of the FBI.

Complete disgrace, and that’s about the kindest way I can put it.

Garbage human being.

I always like to check my assumptions and biases, so I asked Grok: “Is it really plausible that the former HEAD of the FBI had no idea that “86” has historically been linked to “a hit” or “to kill”?”

Grok’s answer:

No, it’s not particularly plausible that James Comey, the former Director of the FBI, would be unaware that “86” has historically been linked to the slang meaning “to kill” or “a hit.” Let’s break this down with the context and Comey’s background in mind.

Comey served as the Director of the FBI from 2013 until his termination in May 2017. Before that, he held high-level positions in law enforcement and prosecution, including Deputy Attorney General of the United States (2003–2005) and U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York (2002–2003). Over his career, he would have been exposed to a wide range of criminal investigations, including those involving organized crime, gangs, and domestic terrorism—contexts where coded language and slang are commonly used and analyzed by law enforcement.

The term “86” has a well-documented history in American slang, particularly in contexts relevant to law enforcement. As noted in the web search results, Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang defines “to 86” as “to kill, to murder; to execute judicially,” possibly tied to the dimensions of a standard grave (8 feet long, 6 feet deep). While the term originated in the hospitality industry—meaning “out of stock” or “remove,” as seen in soda jerk jargon from the 1930s (e.g., Walter Winchell’s 1933 column)—it evolved over decades to take on darker meanings. By the late 20th century, “86” was widely recognized in law enforcement and criminal circles as slang for killing, often used by street gangs, organized crime, and even in pop culture (e.g., Numbuh 86 in Codename: Kids Next Door references “decommissioning,” a metaphorical “killing” of membership).

Given Comey’s extensive experience, it’s highly likely he would have encountered this slang during his tenure. The FBI routinely deals with coded language in investigations—whether it’s monitoring gang communications, analyzing threats, or investigating domestic extremism. For example, the Justice Manual from the Department of Justice (archived 2018) highlights the FBI’s familiarity with abbreviations and coded terms in reports. A term like “86,” with its dual meanings in both benign and violent contexts, would almost certainly have crossed Comey’s radar, especially during high-profile investigations involving threats or violence.

Moreover, the specific context of “86 47” in Comey’s now-deleted Instagram post adds to the skepticism. The number “47” could be interpreted as a reference to Donald Trump, the 47th President of the United States (assuming Trump is in office in 2025, as the post suggests). Pairing “47” with “86” creates a message that many, including Shawn Farash and other X users, interpreted as a coded threat. Comey’s claim that he “didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence” and that he “opposes violence of any kind” feels inconsistent with his background. Someone with his level of expertise would likely be attuned to how such a message could be perceived, especially given his contentious history with Trump—Comey’s firing in 2017, his role in the Russia probe, and his leaking of memos about Trump’s pressure to drop the Michael Flynn investigation (as noted in the Wikipedia entry).

The X thread reflects this skepticism. Users like @thenickoftime90 point out that Comey, as former FBI Director, would have “locked up anyone for putting a picture of ’86 44′” (referencing Obama as the 44th president), implying he’d recognize the implications. @DewarLife99 and @AlexDuncanTX echo this, calling Comey a liar and emphasizing his FBI experience. Even in 2025, with political tensions high, Comey would be aware of the scrutiny his actions would attract, especially given his past controversies (e.g., the Hillary Clinton email investigation and his 2016 election decisions, which some analysts say impacted the outcome).

Could Comey genuinely have been ignorant? It’s possible but unlikely. He might argue that he was using “86” in its more innocent, hospitality-related sense (“out of stock” or “remove”) or that the shells were a random find. However, the combination with “47,” his history with Trump, and his law enforcement background make this explanation seem implausible to many observers. At best, it suggests a striking lapse in judgment for someone of his experience; at worst, it fuels the accusations of intentional signaling, as Farash and others allege.

In short, given Comey’s decades in law enforcement, his exposure to criminal slang, and the politically charged context, it’s hard to believe he had no idea of the violent connotation of “86.” The disbelief expressed in the X thread aligns with a more realistic assessment of his likely knowledge.
