The vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee let loose Friday night at a dinner he hosted for the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee, telling guests that they should “buckle up” for coming revelations from special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into the Trump campaign and Russian meddling.
“If you get me one more glass of wine, I’ll tell you stuff only Bob Mueller and I know,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) told guests gathered at his Martha’s Vineyard home, according to Politico’s playbook. “If you think you’ve seen wild stuff so far, buckle up. It’s going to be a wild couple of months.”
The Senate Intelligence Committee aims to have its investigation into Russia interference in the 2016 election wrapped up by August.
Warner has been a vocal critic of Trump, but has routinely chastised Trump’s allies for leaking information that has proven beneficial to the President.
Give him another glass of wine!!! I want to know!!! I wonder if the Senate’s findings will be made public when they are finished. August would be perfect timing for the midterms.
The next couple of months? Until something other than the event horizon, I hope …
As long as they end with someone else being buckled up, I think I can handle it.
Maybe a little later than August - here’s the problem:
The American public has the attention span of a gnat. Give me an October surprise any day of the week.
In the meantime, Warner needs to be careful. As much as he’d like to puff himself up with these statements, it’s not a good idea to mess with Mueller. My guess is, the guy doesn’t know anything more than the rest of us do.
That’s what I thought. Loose lips sink ships, Mark.
This is great. Make Trump sweat every single day.
In a way, I’d love for this investigation to go on for a few more years.
