Osmunda claytoniana, the interrupted fern, is a fern native to Eastern Asia and eastern North America, in the Eastern United States and Eastern Canada.

The specific epithet is named after the English-born Virginian botanist John Clayton.[1] "Interrupted" describes the gap in middle of the blade left by the fertile portions after they wither and eventually fall off.

The plant is known from fossils to have grown in Europe, showing a previous circumboreal distribution. Fragmentary foliage resembling Osmunda claytoniana has been found in the fossil record as far back as the Triassic, and is known as †Osmunda claytoniites. O. claytoniana is a paramount example of evolutionary stasis. Paleontological evidence indicates it has remained unchanged, even at the level of fossilized nuclei and chromosomes, for at least 180 million years.

Sooo…

Interrupted fern = plant in Comey's picture? (Not a botfag, but kinda looks like it.)

Triassic / 180 million years = geologic time?

Also, despite the "interruption" in the fern, it looks like it goes back to growing normally? So Comey thinks he'll be FBI Director again? Or he thinks the Cabal will go back to the way it was, because it's been around forever and Bad Orange Man is just a blip on the radar? Sounds like a threat…
