Scott Jennings Throws Kimberly Guilfoyle Under the Bus Over Cash Demand
Reuters, Getty Conservative commentator Scott Jennings has thrown Kimberly Guilfoyle under the bus on live TV over claims of her wild cash demand.
Guilfoyle, the U.S.
Ambassador to Greece, was previously engaged to Donald Trump Jr., before splitting in 2024.
On Wednesday, the 57-year-old became engulfed in a scandal over a payment she allegedly requested from MAGA donor Eric Deters, who asked her for favors with the Trump administration.
The former Fox News host asked Deters, a former congressional candidate from Kentucky, for $100,000 to cover her American Express bill, but without leaving a paper trail, a report in The Wall Street Journal alleges.
Deters has since revealed their damning text correspondence, including Guilfoyle telling him, according to the Journal, “I really wish you would stop papering all these things.
What a nightmare.
You’ll literally cost me my ambassadorship.
Stop writing.
Stop papering all these things.
It’s really dangerous.
And just call me on signal.” In another message, she allegedly wrote: “Honey please I need you to get this done for me today.
You could just send it here.” That was sent on July 3, 2025, days before her confirmation hearing on July 9.
Deters was looking for Guilfoyle’s assistance in “getting the attention of the new Trump administration on some personal tax and legal issues,” according to the Journal.
