BREAKING: We FINALLY have our first fact witness in the Mueller hearings, kids! WaPo is reporting that Hope Hicks, Trump's former campaign aide and WH Comms Director will testify in closed session before House Judiciary next week! #WednesdayWisdom washingtonpost.com/politics/forme…
2-"The testimony will occur behind closed doors, said the individuals, but a transcript will be released to the public. A member of the White House Counsel’s Office will be present for the testimony as part of the deal between Hicks and the committee, according to an
3-"individual familiar with the planning who spoke on the condition of anonymity to freely describe the arrangements...Hicks is one of five aides formally subpoenaed by the committee — which is probing the obstruction question, among other issues." ~WaPo
4-"In a letter sent to the committee last week regarding documents, Trout [her lawyer] drew a distinction between records the committee requested that pertained to the campaign, when Hicks served as a senior adviser, and documents related to her White House service.
5-"He agreed to turn over documents regarding her campaign activities. But he indicated that White House sign-off was needed for documents related to her time in the White House." Hicks is expected to assert SOME EP, but it's not known how much at this time.
6-Susan Del Percio just said on #Hardball that Hicks might be testifying bc she now works for the division of Fox that just took over Disney & it could be a response to Stockholder pressure. Resonates.. this is probably not a win for us, kids. #WednesdayWisdom
