Hope Hicks, the White House Communications Director, plans to resign.
Hicks took over the post after Anthony Scaramucci was fired 10 days into the job in August 2017.
She testified on Tuesday before the House Intelligence Committee on her role in President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and her knowledge of possible connections to Russia.
She reportedly admitted in her testimony to telling “white lies” in her capacity. It was unclear when she did so or what the substance of the lies was.
“There are no words to adequately express my gratitude to President Trump,” she said in a statement. “I wish the President and his administration the very best as he continues to lead our country.”
“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,” Trump said in his own statement. “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.”Hope Hicks, the White House Communications Director, plans to resign.
