Full report
A Wall Street Journal investigation triggered the move. The Journal reported that before her Senate confirmation hearing in July 2025, Guilfoyle asked Trump donor Eric Deters to pay her $100,000 American Express credit card bill, suggesting a wire transfer "would leave no trace." She was also accused of accepting luxury gifts and bringing a lobbyist for a Greek construction company into official meetings.
