James Comey masterfully trolls Trump with a beautiful sunrise photo
Former FBI Director-turned-professional troll James Comey has an Instagram, folks, and he's mostly using it to subtly talk smack to the Trump administration whilst sharing beautiful pics of this great Earth.
On Friday, Comey used his first post on Instagram to deliver a thoughtful quote on justice shortly after Donald Trump's former national security advisor Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia.

Comey 'grammed again on Saturday, this time sharing a pic of sunrise over the Long Island Sound. "To paraphrase the Buddha," he wrote, "Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun; the moon; and the truth. "

The quote is likely in reference to this whole debacle with Flynn, Comey, Trump, and the FBI. Trump admitted on Saturday via Twitter that he knew Flynn lied to the FBI and Vice President Mike Pence on his contacts with Russia.
I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI. He has pled guilty to those lies. It is a shame because his actions during the transition were lawful. There was nothing to hide!

However, according to a memo written by Comey in May and his testimony in June, Trump pressured him to drop his investigation of Flynn when he was still head of the FBI. If Trump knew Flynn lied, and then asked the FBI to drop an investigation, it would seemingly qualify as obstruction of justice, an impeachable offense which could land Trump in a load of trouble. Comey, of course, was fired by Trump in May.
So, to recap, Comey is possibly saying that Trump is about to get caught up in all his lies very soon, since the truth always comes out.
Nothing like talking smack with beautiful nature pics.
