Hope Hicks, a one-time close aide to President Donald Trump, will return to the White House next month, a senior administration official said on Thursday.
Hicks, who was Trump's campaign press secretary as well as his White House communications director until resigning in Feb. 2018, in June told a House of Representatives committee that Trump was serious in saying there was nothing wrong in accepting derogatory information about political opponents from a foreign government.
Six months later Trump was impeached in the House of Representatives in part for asking Ukraine's president to investigate the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, a potential 2020 election opponent.
