James Comey was questioned by the Secret Service over a social media post that raised concerns of calling for violence against President Donald Trump.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary traces “86” to “1930s soda-counter slang meaning that an item was sold out. There is varying anecdotal evidence about why the term eighty-six was used, but the most common theory is that it is rhyming slang for nix.”

Former FBI Director James Comey voluntarily met with the Secret Service on Friday night after his Instagram post “86 47” caused an uproar. Comey took down the post but claims he didn’t realize it could be associated with political violence.

FBI head James Comey is getting lambasted online after he shared a post on social media that many are taking as a "hit" on President Donald Trump's life.
