Television news shows scrambled to get White House staffers and GOP legislators to talk about reports that Trump revealed confidential information to Russian diplomats and asked the FBI director to end the investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

The response: Mostly crickets.

Although an unceasing parade of Democrats have been on air Wednesday morning, no one speaking for Trump or the White House appeared.

On CBS, Gayle King said she hasn’t been able to book any Republicans on Wednesday morning: “It was like crickets over there in Washington.”

Wow: @CBSThisMorning says it asked 20 GOP lawmakers to be a guest this AM to talk about Trump. And asked the WH for someone. ALL declined. — Ed O'Keefe (@edatpost) May 17, 2017

That’s a notable difference from last week, after Comey was fired, when Trump surrogates and Republican lawmakers went on show after show.

Some notable exceptions Wednesday: Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) was on CNN and called for a special prosecutor or independent commission to investigate the Russia claims.

And Marco Rubio, a Florida Republican who was one of Trump’s opponents in the presidential primary, said “we need to know what the facts are.”

The White House did release a statement Tuesday night, saying “the president has never asked Mr. Comey or anyone else to end an investigation, including any investigation involving General Flynn … This is not a truthful or accurate portrayal of the conversation between the president and Mr. Comey.’’
