Comey Fesses Up, Claims Ownership Of Suspected Twitter Account

Former FBI Director James Comey, who has cultivated a low public profile since his surprise firing last May, confirmed Monday that he is the author of a Twitter account that was previously anonymous — and signaled that he is going to rejoin the national conversation.

Comey tweeted an image of himself standing alone, along the roadside in Iowa, writing, "On the road home. Gotta get back to writing. Will try to tweet in useful ways."

Until Monday, however, Comey had not formally acknowledged he was the man behind the account.

True to form, the more creative minds on Twitter took things farther afield. "Darth," a prominent and playful figure on the social media site, noted his presence in Iowa — wearing running shoes — and added a Nike swoosh and the words, "he's running." A lot of political reporters took notice of those facts, too...


The rest is HERE. You can also find his Twitter "address" there, if you are so inclined to visit it.

Shouldn't he just lay low and keep his mouth shut while the investigation is still ongoing. This says what his critics do...that he is an attention grabber.
