First on CNN: White House directs Hope Hicks, Annie Donaldson to withhold White House documents from House committee

Hicks, the former White House communications director, still could turn over documents the committee has requested related to the 2016 Trump campaign, as that period cannot be covered by executive privilege. In 2018, Hicks testified before the House Intelligence Committee about her time on the campaign, but she would not answer questions about the White House.

The White House sent letters to the committee stating that White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney had directed Hicks and Donaldson, the former deputy White House counsel, not to turn over the documents. Both officials had been issued subpoenas by the committee with a deadline of Tuesday.The Judiciary Committee issued subpoenas to both Hicks and Donaldson for documents and testimony. The dates for them to testify are later this month.Read MoreThis story is breaking and will be updated.

If they would just charge them with contempt and throw their asses in jail for one night I bet the mind set changes. It’s time to quit fucking around and get the job done. Nadler needs to grow a set of nads!

Isn’t this MORE OBSTRUCTION?

More obstruction. When is Congress going to wake up and start putting these people in jail

Something must be done! There must be recourse

So I wonder if AG BARR considers this obstruction, don't comply to subpoenas, don't hand over documents.

If they don't comply, they will find that the DC jail is co-ed.

Good! The coup attempt continues but not for much longer. DeclassifyFISA AGBarr to the rescue

And those sources close to the matter have proven so credible in the past. Keep it up

About freakin time.

Put your big girl panties on ladies, do what's right and honor the subpoenas. You're not under trump's thumb anymore.

The white house is starting to feel like a hostile foreign government camped on our soil....

RepHoulahan - they’ll be punished for this...right?

So more obstruction... How fun...

Even trumpies have to ask themselves what this corrupt administration has to hide. Well, the 'should' ask themselves that if they are truly the religious patriots they claim to be.

maggieNYT what’s up w Hicks?

~ the most transparent…evah!

Everyone who lines themselves up with Trump seems to loose out in some type of way. You would think that would be trending and they would be distancing instead of getting in deeper or closer. Just to know this make you really wonder about people’s intelligence.

If the Dems are going to force a Constitutional crisis the stock market will crash wiping out 50% of Americans. The Democrats are doing this as we speak. You know who to blame and heard it here first.

Here's a lesson for Trump supporters: When the fake president is obstructing justice, ordering everyone else to obstruct justice and employing an AG that obstructs justice and lies--it means he's guilty of every damned thing he was accused of. Thanks for playing.

Of course, two UNNAMED sources.

Lock them up

WhiteHouse realDonaldTrump GOP Corrupt to the core

Good

Put them orange jump suits

No do-overs. Are you people even listening? The American people are annoyed with your TrumpDerangementSyndrome related hysteria.

Maybe they will turn their documents over when Hillary turns over her 33,000 emails.

Wtf Treat them like you would treat me or any other person of color. Enough is enough already with this BS!!!

Good they probably have a written contract that prohibits them and that is fine with me.

Fed Judge ruled courts should not get into fights between POTUS and Congress in regards to appropriation of wall. And Trump's side said this i the right call. If this is true, they are directly challenging our checks and balance system.

It’s over dummies.

Lock them up too

Another obstruction of justice.

NO COLLUSION !!! NO INTRUSION!!! THE CLOWN 🤡

So much to hide, so much to hide...

Yeah, they arent trying to hide anything. Time to do something about this FFS!!

So where is the law on this ? I amgenuinely asking as a french person. Can congress be ignored so blatantly ? What are the risks ?

This how you know someone doesn't do cover ups.

Good the investigation is over so why would they

we the ppl r suffering bc dems have done nothing for us we the ppl but abuse power to thwart we the voters' will. truth from mueller report is clear: NO CHARGES, NO CRIMES, CASE CLOSED, ITS A DEAD HORSE. dems must stop beating the dead horse, n start working for us. move on.
