Ex-FBI Director James Comey finally reveals himself on Twitter

James Comey just blew his own cover.

The former FBI Director confirmed rumors that Twitter handle @FormerBu — using the name Reinhold Niebuhr — is the secret account he’s previously mentioned keeping.

He tweeted a photo of himself from the account Monday morning, showing the former lawman sporting sunglasses and standing in the middle of an Iowa road.

“Goodbye Iowa. On the road home. Gotta get back to writing. Will try to tweet in useful ways,” tweeted Comey, who has a book deal with Flatiron Books.

That prompted writer and longtime pal Benjamin Wittes — one of just 29 accounts followed by @FormerBu — to verify it was Comey’s account.

“Ok, in light of this latest tweet, I will confirm that @FormerBu is, in fact, James Comey himself,” he tweeted.

Comey had posted several photos in the last few days of West Point, Gettysburg and in Iowa — featuring pensive comments about nature, leadership and values.

His presence in Iowa immediately sparked speculation about the future of Comey, whom President Trump fired as FBI director in May. The Hawkeye State’s caucus is considered one of the major first steps in Presidential primaries.

But the Des Moines Register noted Monday that Comey’s wife, Patrice Failor, is from Iowa and her father celebrated his 90th birthday over the weekend.

The spurt of tweets over the last five days are the first time the account has tweeted since March, when Comey still headed the FBI.

See Comey through the years:

The first tweet, on March 30, was a meme from the 2004 film “Anchorman,” which quoted main character Ron Burgundy: “Actually I’m not even mad. That’s amazing.”

The tweet was believed to have been a response to how quickly social media users found what they thought was the secret account, then using the @Projectexile7 handle.

Comey had mentioned a day earlier he was “on Twitter now, I have to be on Twitter.” That led to a cyber manhunt for the lawman’s account.

The meme was accompanied by a link to the FBI’s hiring page, fueling further speculation.

For the last seven months, he was mum on whether the account — named for 20th Century theologian Reinhold Niebuhr — was his.
