Judge allows group to fly '86 47' flag in DC, rejecting claim it is a threat to Trump
Sharing the message "86 47" might have gotten former FBI Director James Comey indicted, but a federal judge is allowing a progressive group in Washington, D.C., to continue displaying a flag with the slang phrase after concluding that it is "difficult to fathom ... that a reasonable observer would view the flag as a true threat."
Though the lawsuit is unrelated to Comey's criminal case, the ruling is a setback for the Department of Justice as it seeks to prove that the phrase "86 47" could be interpreted as a threat to kill President Donald Trump.
The legal dispute stemmed from an ongoing demonstration in D.C. held by the progressive group Accountability NOW USA in order to, in the group's words, "call attention to the rise of fascism in the United States and demand the impeachment of President Trump." The Secret Service began an investigation into a volunteer after the group began displaying an "86 47" flag, despite telling officers that they did not wish violence on Trump.
"I never heard of it standing for anything other than Trump shouldn't be in office," the volunteer told two Secret Service agents, according to court filings. "I want Trump to live forever and rot in jail where he belongs."

I don't remember Donald calling for Boebert's ouster when she uttered the republican Christian prayer for Biden.....
There is always the republican Christian prayer:::
8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
