In a shocking legal development, former FBI Director James Comey has surrendered to authorities after being indicted for allegedly threatening the life of President Donald Trump. Prosecutors claim that a 2025 Instagram post by Comey, which featured a photo of a seashell and the numbers "8647," was a coded call for violence that the President interpreted as an assassination threat. 

Comey's legal team has "vigorously defended" his innocence, maintaining that the post was a harmless personal photo and not a threat. The indictment has further polarized an already divided U.S. public, adding another layer of controversy to the ongoing legal battles between the current administration and former government officials.

The news broke as King Charles III and Queen Camilla continued their state visit to the U.S. The King delivered a speech to Congress aimed at promoting U.S.-UK unity, even as domestic tensions over the Iran war and high profile legal cases continue to dominate the American political landscape.
