Summary
U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle resigned Tuesday after the White House asked her to step down, press secretary Katie Zacharia said during her first briefing. The move follows Wall Street Journal reports alleging she sought to have a Republican donor pay off a $100,000 debt and allegations of improper conduct. President Trump said, "We didn't like what we were reading." Guilfoyle called the allegations of improper conduct "false" and said being ambassador was the "honour of a lifetime."
