Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), who is the vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, allegedly joked at a fundraiser for big donors on Martha’s Vineyard that he would dish dirt on the Mueller investigation if he got drunk.
From Politico, “If you get me one more glass of wine, I’ll tell you stuff only Bob Mueller and I know. If you think you’ve seen wild stuff so far, buckle up. It’s going to be a wild couple of months.”

There are obvious problems with this, namely that he’s the vice chairman of the Intelligence Committee:

Thanks, @MarkWarner! I feel much better now about how fair, impartial and nonpartisan the #Mueller investigation is. https://t.co/qZ6D7QJd1F

But it’s not just conservatives questioning it:

Others are questioning why — if he does have more information on Trump — that he’s not going public with it now.
From @nycsouthpaw, “When it’s all over, I’ll want to understand why *the people who know* thought it was necessary or acceptable to drag the denouement out over months and years while actual human suffering grew out of control”:
