Trump Jeers as Supporters Beat Protester, New Press Sec Fails, David Cay Johnston Joins (10/13/26)

The Mark Thompson Show

We didn't think that she'd last after this scandal has hit the ambassador to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle.

She has stepped down as US ambassador to Greece, everyone.

What? Yeah.

This after the alleged misconduct, which she denied quite vehemently through her attorney.

But, uh, once the receipts were shown, it seemed as though that was going to be a pretty thin argument that the whole thing didn't happen.

And the White House announcing that the diplomatic career of one of Donald Trump's longest-standing political allies is coming to an end.

And, uh, Marco Rubio, who, as you know, is the Secretary of State among other jobs that he has, became furious when the allegations of the sort of pay to play, begging for a hundred thousand to pay off the American Express bill and begging in a way that would suggest, "If you give me this, the hundred K, I will be your ride or die with Trump." Again, he became enraged and so did Trump, apparently.

She's the former fiancée of Trump's eldest son, Don Jr.

And again, she is stepping down.

Uh, now It's interesting because Trump, in typical Trump fashion, sort of suggests, I didn't really know her.

Um, [laughs] here is ...

So Guilfoyle, again, dramatic resignation.

Here is, uh ...

In the background you can see Trump's latest, um, press secretary as he faces the media.

Uh, do you have anything here on this, Tony? Or should I, uh ...

Yeah? Let's listen.

Yeah, let me see a little bit.

Here we go.

Mr.

President, Kimberly Guilfoyle, she was almost a member of your family.

How surprised were you- She was almost a member of your family ... to learn about these allegations? What did you make of them?

No, she wasn't a member of my family.

She, uh, I guess, dated my son a long time ago, but she wasn't ...

No.
