Will Trump and Rubio fire Kimberly Guilfoyle?$100,000 claim puts Greece ambassador under scrutiny: Reports
Trump is reportedly thinking about firing Kimberly Guilfoyle as US ambassador to Greece after reports of questionable conduct.
US President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio may remove Kimberly Guilfoyle from her position as US ambassador to Greece, following reports of her questionable conduct. Sources close to the decision say Trump and Rubio are "extremely pissed off" by Guilfoyle's reported behavior. The controversy began when Guilfoyle reportedly asked for $100,000 from a Trump donor in exchange for access to administration officials.
She also allegedly boasted about luxury travel to France with energy company executives during her confirmation hearing, and claimed she was enraged over not being invited to a Greek-themed event at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Trump did not defend Guilfoyle on Friday, stating he only heard about the claims recently.
Rubio initially defended her but later expressed doubt about the authenticity of the reports. The US State Department's inspector general is reportedly investigating the allegations.
