If Spicer won't make the news with a press briefing, back to anonymous, reliable sources.

In other words, without Spicer, we might get a glimpse of the truth.

Go do your jobs and dig up the mountain of dirt that is out there on these crooks! Run down the stories of Trump benefiting from foreign governments on his properties. How much has his occupancy increased because he is POTUS? Do what you do best and speculate that Trump was getting his story straight with Putin and asking Putin to hack some reporters and people on Trump's "enemies" list. There is a lot to do!

They had a swell time of it riding Clinton's campaign into the sunset. They should all be replaced with new, young, multi-ethnic, real reporters hungry for the TRUTH!!!

Of course at that time the members of Congress were Americans first and Republicans / Democrats second.

I did a google search for 1973 (Watergate Hearings) and the Dems controlled both the House and Senate.

and if he's refusing to do it, then he's nothing more than the superfluous tail on the Orange Shitgibbon.

Get rid of the dead weight, tRump! But I suppose if he did that he'd have to cut off his own head, wouldn't he? Oh well, cuts have to be made SOMEWHERE! It works for me, and over 50% of the American people.
