Hope Hicks to Resign as White House Communications Director

Hope Hicks to Resign as White House Communications Director Hicks, who is also one of President Trump's longest-tenured aide, did not give an official date for her departure. Hope is outstanding and has done great work for the last three years. She is as smart and thoughtful as they come, a truly great person. I will miss having her by my side, but when she approached me about pursuing other opportunities, I totally understood. I am sure we will work together again in the future. On Tuesday, Hicks testified for eight hours before the House Intelligence Committee, saying she has never lied about anything connected to the Russia Investigation. Other aides in the White House say that her departure was not due to her testimony and that she had told colleagues she had been considering leaving for several months, according to the New York Times.
