WASHINGTON — The vice chairman and top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee on Sunday re-affirmed how critical he feels his work is in looking into issues related to Russia's attempts to interfere with the 2016 election.

"I've said before: this is the most important thing that I've ever done in my public life," Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., told NBC's "Meet The Press."

"And what I know now as I get more and more into this: I am going to double down on that statement cause it's extraordinary."

He pointed to FBI Director James Comey admitting at Monday's House Intelligence Committee hearing that they are investigating both Russia's work to try to influence the 2016 election as well as the Trump campaign's possible ties to Russia.

1. Yay Mark!

He's my senator

7. Mine too. Glad there's someone with that level of serious depth in that Committee position.

If you haven't called his office yet, they take constituent calls seriously... I called him abt this and also strongly urging him to stay strong vs Gorsuch... his aide said he hadn't decided how he's voting on Gorsuch, that was a few days ago. 202-224-3121.

9. Mine also.

Thanks for posting the phone #.

2. That doesn't sound like a guy looking at only circumstantial evidence. Trump is in this up to his

eyeballs.

3. I can see it in his face. The enormity of what he knows and what he must do...

is written all over his face and body.
Very similar to the look on Sen. Feinstein's face when she emerged from a secret briefing with Sen. Grassley (who stared at his shoes and didn't speak)
May the FORCE be with you, Senator Warner.

4. Yes it is, Senator Warner. Your country needs you now more than ever.

This is your time to truly serve, and save, our country.

5. It is probably good the details are not known for now.

Everyone will eventually find out with a fury approaching Pearl Harbor if suspicions hold. I have to give credit to the patience and control Democrats who do know in Congress.

6. This underscores the necessity of not allowing Nunes and the Republicans to sweep this under the rug

and make it go away. We need to do whatever it takes, to see this through to its conclusion.

8. I keep thinking that there will be a young lawyer working on this that will become

a future presidential candidate.

I'll be watching.

11. I see our next best

Presidential Candidates coming from Congress instead of Governors & Senators. It looks like the bench is deeper & younger. People Like Schiff Leiu, Kennedy, Castro, Swahall, The lady on the commitee, name escapes me now.

[NewRedDawn]

10. Once this all gets

exposed & the traitors dealt with, this is going to be some fascinating movie.

[JudyM]

16. I hope it ends with our winning back congress in a remarkable sweep and we actually prosecute the

criminals this time around.

[vlyons]

12. Open hearing scheduled for this Thurs March 30

n/t

[Amaryllis]

13. Do you know what time?

[vlyons]

14. Yes I do

10AM est and again at 2PM est. See following for list of Witnesses

15. Thanks. I checked their site yesterday but clearly didnt get to the right page!

I was hoping it would be some of the people involved in scandal or intel people working on it...or the ones that House Intel was going to have before Nunes cancelled open hearings.
