Washington (CNN) — Former FBI Director James Comey revealed his secret Twitter account Monday with a tweeted picture from Iowa.

The former FBI director has been mostly off the radar since he was fired from his post in May by President Donald Trump amid an investigation into the Trump campaign's potential ties to Russia.
