White House Communications Director Hope Hicks will meet with investigators in the coming weeks as the latest high-level Administration official questioned by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team in the ongoing Russia investigation.
Hicks has not been charged with any criminal wrongdoing but has been present for or involved with many Russia-related incidents and events in her role as a close Trump adviser since the beginning of his campaign.
Politico has a rundown of the most significant interactions:
In March 2016, Hicks joined Trump at a Washington Post editorial board meeting when he first announced a foreign policy advisory team that included Carter Page and George Papadopoulos, who pleaded guilty last month for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian officials.
(...)
She also dealt with Page, who told the House Intelligence Committee during a closed-door hearing last month that he had emailed her, Lewandowski and senior aide J.D. Gordon in June 2016 to tell them he had been invited — after joining the campaign — to speak in Moscow.
(...)
And she also had to answer for Paul Manafort, whose role spearheading GOP delegate-counting efforts at the Republican National Convention and later as campaign chairman prompted a series of media inquiries about his past business relationships. The Washington Post reported this September that Manafort had emailed Hicks in April 2016 telling her to disregard the newspaper’s questions about his ties to Putin ally and Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska.
(...)
Two days after Trump’s election win, Hicks told the The New York Times, the Washington Post and other media outlets that the campaign had no contacts with the Russian government. Those comments were quickly debunked...
(...)
[Hicks] was with Trump in Bedminster, New Jersey, during the early May weekend when he decided to fire Comey. The Washington Post in September also reported Hicks was in the Oval Office for a meeting the day before the FBI director was ousted when the president described a draft letter he and senior aide Stephen Miller had written spelling out at length Trump’s complaints about Comey.
(...)
Hicks was also the only Trump aide in the room when the president sat for a Times interview in July where he revealed he wished he hadn’t nominated Sessions to be attorney general because of his recusal over the Russia probe.
