前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米因“86 47”社交媒体帖文遭起诉，被控威胁特朗普
福克斯新闻记者戴维·斯彭特在《特别报道》节目中报道了司法部针对前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米的指控，原因是其发布的“86 47”社交媒体帖文被指威胁总统唐纳德·特朗普。
代理司法部长托德·布兰奇周日坚称，针对前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米的起诉绝非仅靠一张“8647”的Instagram图片，他表示法庭上将公布新证据，以支持政府有关科米的帖文构成针对总统的刑事威胁的主张。
布兰奇是在《与媒体见面》节目采访中发表上述言论的，当时他被问及这起备受关注的案件的可信度，以及是否存在政治动机。此案的关键在于检方能否证明这位前联邦调查局局长的主观意图，这是法律认定的关键门槛。布兰奇暗示，司法部将在法庭上提交更广泛的证据来支持这项指控，同时驳斥检方是因特朗普过去与科米的冲突而发起起诉的说法。
“证明主观意图的方式和往常一样，”布兰奇说，“你可以通过证人来证明主观意图，通过文件、材料来证明……这绝不仅仅是一则Instagram帖文。这是大陪审团在约11个月的时间里收集到的大量证据。”
“86”一词作为俚语意为摆脱某人或某物，起源于餐饮业中表示菜品售罄或拒绝接待顾客的说法。检方声称，结合“47”——指特朗普是第47任总统——科米的帖文构成了威胁。

布兰奇指出，威胁总统是一项常见的刑事指控。但他表示，司法部不会起诉日常提及“8647”的行为，比如亚马逊上售卖的带有该数字的周边产品，科米此案另有其他因素。
“请放心，北卡罗来纳州的职业联邦助理检察官、职业联邦调查局特工、职业特勤局特工在调查此案时，并非只看了Instagram帖文就草草了事……我不能透露大陪审团听取的证词或得出的结论细节，”布兰奇说，“但请放心，导致某人遭到起诉的绝非仅仅是那则Instagram帖文。”
上周，司法部在北卡罗来纳州联邦法院对科米提起两项指控，称其去年发布的一张海滩贝壳照片帖文构成了伤害或杀害特朗普的威胁。
该帖文引发了社交媒体用户的强烈抗议，他们指责科米威胁其长期政治宿敌特朗普，科米随即删除了这张图片并道歉。科米当时表示，他并未意识到“86”这个数字与暴力有关联。

时任国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺伊姆随即宣布，美国特勤局将对该帖文展开调查，科米当时自愿与联邦特工进行了面谈，但当时并未提起指控。
此案是司法部近期对科米提起的第二项诉讼，此前一项指控他向国会撒谎的起诉因程序问题被驳回。司法部正在就该裁决提起上诉。
布兰奇还被问及，是否因为特朗普去年秋天在Truth Social平台发帖明确呼吁司法部对科米和其他政治对手提起刑事指控，称他们“罪该万死”并表示“必须伸张正义，现在！！！”，才对科米提起诉讼。
“美国民众会认为，直到特朗普在9月份发布那条Truth帖子后，这些案件才有所行动吗？”布兰奇问道，“不会的，这些调查一直在进行中。”

针对科米的最新起诉遭到了广泛批评，民主党人和部分共和党人认为，这些指控涉及言论自由问题，并未达到最高法院确立的“真实威胁”标准。科米的律师在法庭上表示，他将请求法官驳回指控，理由是这些指控具有选择性和报复性。尽管如此，司法部和特朗普的盟友仍坚定支持这些指控，并警告批评者在仓促下定论前先等待证据公开。

Blanche turns the tables on Comey indictment critics: ‘Rest assured’ case goes beyond Instagram post

The acting attorney general says a grand jury collected a ‘body of evidence’ including witnesses and documents

James Comey indicted over ‘86 47’ social media post, accused of threats against Trump
Fox News correspondent David Spunt reports on the Justice Department’s charges against former FBI Director James Comey over an ‘86 47’ social media post allegedly threatening President Donald Trump on ‘Special Report.’
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche insisted Sunday that the indictment against former FBI Director James Comey rests on more than just an “8647” Instagram picture, saying new evidence would come to light in court to support the government’s claim that Comey’s post amounted to a criminal threat against the president.
Blanche provided the remarks during a “Meet the Press” interview as he was grilled about the credibility of the high-profile case and whether it was politically motivated. The charges hinge on whether prosecutors can prove the former FBI director’s intent, a key legal threshold. Blanche signaled the Department of Justice will present broader evidence in court to support the charge while rejecting claims the prosecution was driven by Trump’s past clashes with Comey.
“You prove intent like you always prove intent,” Blanche said. “You prove intent with witnesses. You prove intent with documents, with materials. … This is not just about a single Instagram post. This is about a body of evidence that the grand jury collected over the series of about 11 months.”
The term “86” is understood as slang to get rid of someone or something, rooted in restaurant usage for an unavailable item or refused customer. Prosecutors allege that, paired with “47” — a reference to Trump as the 47th president — Comey’s post amounted to a threat.

Blanche noted that threatening the president was a common criminal charge. But he said the DOJ does not prosecute everyday mentions of “8647,” such as paraphernalia featuring the numbers being sold on Amazon, and that other factors were in play in Comey’s case.
“Rest assured that the career assistant United States attorneys in North Carolina, the career FBI agents, the career Secret Service agents that investigated this case didn’t just look at the Instagram post and walk away. … So I am not permitted to get into the details of what the grand jury heard or found,” Blanche said. “But rest assured that it’s not just the Instagram post that leads somebody to get indicted.”
The DOJ brought two charges against Comey in federal court in North Carolina last week alleging an Instagram post he made last year of seashells on the beach amounted to a threat to harm or kill Trump.
The post prompted an outcry from social media users, who accused Comey of threatening Trump, his longtime political nemesis, leading Comey to immediately delete the image and issue an apology. Comey said at the time he did not realize the number “86” was associated with violence.

Then-Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem responded by announcing that U.S. Secret Service would investigate the post, and Comey voluntarily met with federal agents at the time for an interview, though no charges were brought.
The case marks the Justice Department’s second recent prosecution of Comey, after a separate indictment alleging he lied to Congress was tossed on procedural grounds. The DOJ is appealing that decision.
Blanche was also questioned over whether Comey was charged because Trump explicitly called for the DOJ to bring criminal charges against him and other political foes in a Truth Social post last fall, calling them “guilty as hell” and saying “JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!”
“Do the American people think that nothing was done on those cases until President Trump posted that Truth in September?” Blanche asked. “No, these are ongoing investigations.”

The latest indictment against Comey has faced widespread criticism as Democrats and some Republicans argue the charges present a free speech problem and do not rise to the “true threat” standard established by the Supreme Court. Comey’s attorney said in court that he plans to ask the judge to toss out the charges because they were selective and vindictive. Still, the DOJ and Trump allies are standing firmly behind the charges as they warn critics to wait to hear evidence before jumping to conclusions.
