Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the charges stem from a May 15, 2025 communication that prosecutors argue could be interpreted as a threat to “take the life of” and “inflict bodily harm” on the president. The indictment alleges that Comey posted content online that a “reasonable recipient” would view as a serious expression of intent to harm, and also transmitted a threatening communication in interstate commerce.
