DEMOCRATS NOT HAPPY AFTER HOPE HICKS REFUSES TO ANSWER QUESTIONS DURING CLOSE-DOOR MEETING
Former White House communications director Hope Hicks reportedly refused to answer questions during Wednesday’s closed-door meeting with the House Judiciary Committee, prompting Democrats to express outrage at her lack of cooperation.
Hicks met with lawmakers to talk privately about President Donald Trump’s alleged attempts to obstruct former special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into whether or not Russia had been knowingly involved in the 2016 presidential election. Armed with an attorney, Hicks would not answer any questions unless the White House counsel said that she could, Democrats claimed.
The White House lawyer allegedly said multiple times throughout the meeting that Hicks had blanket immunity and did not have to talk about her time in the White House. House Democrats said that Hicks refused to answer simple questions such as where she sat in the West Wing or if she lied to Mueller, according to Politico.
“She is making a choice to follow along with all the claims of absolute immunity,” said Washington Rep. Pramila Jayapal.
“Basically, she can say her name.”
