Summary

President Trump said Monday he is considering removing Kimberly Guilfoyle as U.S. Ambassador to Greece, saying "we're not happy." The scrutiny follows a Wall Street Journal report alleging she asked a Trump donor to pay off a $100,000 American Express bill before her confirmation hearing. Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso said he expects an investigation, likely by the State Department, with Senate Foreign Relations Committee oversight. No firing or departure has been confirmed.
