As far as her job - is she still responsibility for using "the machine" on Trump's pants while he's wearing them?

The machine steams his pants and she was a PRESS secretary after all so she is the most qualified for that position.

If I am not mistaken, she has had her day with Mueller and his team.

so either is possible that Mueller doesn't want her to talk yet to House committee or else the House committee expects WH to block her from answering questions, so it would be a waste of their time like the Bannon testimony until WH establishes executive privilege specifics as to what period of time she will able to answer questions.

garbage that the rest of them have... "I don't want to answer that" and nobody makes them do it. They get the benefit of Executive Privilege without having to actually invoke it.

Just like Bannon they have to huddle at the White House to get the story right. Then decide what they choose to answer. Some investigation huh ?
