House Judiciary Releases Hope Hicks Testimony Transcript
Daily Caller ^ | 6/21/2019 | chuck ross

Posted on 06/21/2019 7:42:41 AM PDT by bitt

The House Judiciary Committee released a 273-page transcript of former White House communications director Hope Hicks’s testimony. Hicks largely defended President Donald Trump and the activities during the 2016 presidential campaign. Her lawyers refused to let her answer more than 150 questions about her work in the White House, citing immunity on the topic. The House Judiciary Committee released a transcript Thursday of former White House communications director Hope Hicks’s closed-door testimony.

Hicks mostly defended President Donald Trump and members of the Trump campaign during an eight-hour interview Wednesday. She disputed the idea that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government, and also said she had no advance knowledge WikiLeaks would release emails that had been stolen from Democrats during the campaign.

Hicks, who is a communications executive at Fox, also said she had no discussions prior to the 2016 election about hush money payments made on behalf of Trump. Days before the election, Michael Cohen, a former attorney for Trump, paid $130,000 to Stormy Daniels, a porn star who claimed she had an affair with Trump in 2006.

Where are the demands for Nadless to step down over his juvenile and sexist handling of this witness? The “big man” obviously has problems respecting women.

I read the transcript. Nadler’s questioning was over the top. He was an ass. He continually called Ms. Hicks, Ms. Lewandowski. He did it on purpose. There was no reason for Hope to testify.

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/449675-nadler-apologized-after-repeatedly-calling-hope-hicks-ms-lewandowski

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) repeatedly referred to former Trump aide Hope Hicks as “Ms. Lewandowski” during a closed-door hearing this week.

The 273-page transcript of Hicks’s testimony, which was released Thursday night, reveals that Nadler referred to her by the last name of former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, before apologizing.

After she introduced herself at the start of the interview as Hope Hicks, Nadler called her “Ms. Lewandowski” three times before Hicks interrupted to correct him, according to the transcript.

“Yeah. Ms. Lewandowski, I think, in reading this — “

“My name is Ms. Hicks,” she said.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Hicks,” Nadler replied. “I’m preoccupied.”

All: I would suggest reading the first 30-35 pages or so, just for grins. It’s not much.

You’ll read Nadler asking the same stupid question at least 40 times. You’ll read Nadler asking Hicks “what was going through his mind”, “what was he thinking” as if anyone on earth would be willing to or be interested in speculating in such things. And if they were interested, what supposed impact it would have on anything probative. You’ll read Nadler calling Hope Hicks “Ms. Lewandowski” twice. If you’ve ever thought Nadler was a
dumb tub of lard, now you can have it proven.

Hope Hicks is not only a dish and a half, she’s awfully smart as well.

NADLER was trying to subliminally connect HOPE to MONICA. Evil man.

I believe Cory was married, and may still be, while he and Hope were working at the White House. I believe Nadler was implying that Hope had an adulterous affair while at the White House. It had nothing to do with Russian Collusion.

I know, of course. But just imagine the outrage if it had been a Republican congressman making similar passive-aggressive attacks on a Democrat female. He would be called sexist, misogynist, and demands for him to resign his chairmanship would be loud and continuous.

The only way to get people to see the double standard is to Alinsky it with ridicule.

Because he is too chickensh!t to come right out and defame her directly, so he does it in a passive-aggressive way.

He may be half the man he used to be, but he’s every bit as much a prick.

I watched Silly Mathews doing his report on her testimony...

He had the just released transcript in his hand....

It was clownist and absurd.

Just about accused her lying and covering up Trump Crimes....
