Maureen Comey Tries To 86 47's Firing Her - Above the Law
"Possibly the dumbest news cycle of the year involved former FBI Director James Comey being branded as a political terrorist for taking an Instagram shot of some goddamned seashells by the seashore. In May, the longtime Republican had arranged the shells into "8647," marrying "86" - the old-timey lingo for bouncing an unruly patron or the restaurant slang for canceling an order - with "47," indicating the 47th president."
"At the time, the younger Comey said, "fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought." Which is a more eloquent way of saying, "suckas just messed with the wrong lawyer." Defendants have not provided any explanation whatsoever for terminating Ms. Comey. In truth, there is no legitimate explanation. Rather, Defendants fired Ms. Comey solely or substantially because her father is former FBI Director James B. Comey, or because of her perceived political affiliation and beliefs, or both."
James Comey posted an Instagram photo arranging seashells into "8647," combining "86" (restaurant slang for canceling) with "47" to signal the 47th president. The Secret Service interviewed and monitored Comey after the image. Kash Patel said resources were diverted from "chasing down child sex predators, fentanyl traffickers, terrorists &" to pursue social media posts. Maureen Comey was terminated from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the SDNY without any stated explanation and alleges the firing was motivated by her father and perceived political beliefs. Maureen previously prosecuted cases involving Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
