  "account": "US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle is under pressure following reports that she may have solicited a $100,000 payment from Trump donor Eric Deters in exchange for influence. The Wall Street Journal published messages showing Guilfoyle requesting the payment, which she allegedly needed to pay off American Express debts, just days before a Senate hearing. Guilfoyle's lawyer denies the authenticity of the messages, while Deters claims he never intended to send the money and was only seeking her help with personal tax and legal issues. The incident has sparked calls for an investigation, with Senator John Barrasso and Representative Robert Garcia demanding answers.",
  "summary": "She was engaged to Trump Jr., now she's an ambassador in Athens: Kimberly Guilfoyle allegedly offered a donor access to the government in exchange for payment. Now calls for clarification are growing louder.",
