Another Comey indictment: Letters to the Editor — May 4, 2026

The Issue: Former FBI Director James Comey indicted for a second time over his “86 47” Instagram post.

The latest indictment of former FBI Director James Comey will again prove to be fruitless and another loss for his irascible former boss (“Comey turns self in,” May 1).

“86” means no more than, “get rid of,” not “kill” — i.e., get rid of that ref, get rid of that menu item and, in this case, impeach Trump. That’s it, no more, no less.

Finally, almost a year later, James Comey will be held accountable for his threatening Instagram post. After three assassination attempts, Trump can’t be too careful. Comey can’t fool anyone by playing dumb about what the numbers mean.

Precedent will be set if he’s tried, found guilty and punished to the fullest extent of the law. Fingers crossed.
