Amid White House Order To Keep Quiet, Potential Testimony By Greenwich's Hope Hicks Seen As Key President Trump and the White House continue to fight every Congressional subpoena.

This week, Hicks and another top Trump aide, Annie Donaldson, defied House Judiciary Committee subpoenas for documents relating to their work in the White House.  Hicks and Donaldson now join other subpoena recipients -- Attorney General William…
