Comey seeks dismissal of charges over Instagram post

James Comey, the former head of the FBI, is in trouble because of a picture he posted on Instagram.

The picture showed seashells arranged to read '86 47', which some people think means 'get rid of' or 'eject'.

The Trump administration says this was a threat against President Trump and has charged Comey.

Comey's lawyers say the post was just political speech and not a threat.

They argue that the government is trying to silence criticism of the president.

Trump has said that '86 47' clearly means assassination.

Comey has deleted the post and said he didn't realize some people would see it as violent.

The case is part of a series of legal actions by the Trump administration against people the president has problems with.
