The Daily Beast • • general
Key Points:
- U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle allegedly asked MAGA donor Eric Deters to pay a $100,000 American Express bill without leaving a paper trail, according to texts reviewed by the Wall Street Journal.
- The messages, sent days before Guilfoyle's confirmation hearing in July 2025, included requests to wire money discreetly and avoid creating documentation of the transaction.
- Deters, who reportedly has paid Guilfoyle $300,000 over the years without receiving favors, declined to make the payment, citing personal consequences such as the risk to his marriage.
- Guilfoyle's lawyer disputes the authenticity of the messages, claiming she was owed money for travel related to patriotic events, while a U.S. Embassy official defended her integrity and Senate confirmation.
- The situation escalated when Guilfoyle expressed frustration over Deters informing a podcast producer about their financial arrangement, fearing it could jeopardize her ambassadorship.
