Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, R-Wyoming, voiced significant concern on Sunday regarding recent media coverage surrounding U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle and her financial affairs.
Barrasso described the situation as “very troubling” and “concerning,” stating, “Well, what we’ve seen in the reports is very troubling. It’s concerning. And I’m sure there’s going to be an investigation. I would assume the State Department would be…”
The comments from the top Senate Republican highlight growing scrutiny over Guilfoyle’s financial dealings, with the majority whip indicating that a formal probe by the State Department is likely forthcoming.
Is ‘troubling’ the new standard for political scandal? I’m surprised it took this long for anyone in the Senate to say something. Where were they earlier?
An investigation is definitely coming now. The State Department has strict ethics rules for ambassadors. They can’t ignore reports like this.
Barrasso throwing her under the bus already? Classic partisan move. He waits until the pressure mounts then distances himself. Disgusting.
I didn’t realize Guilfoyle was Ambassador to Greece. I thought she was involved in domestic politics. Who is even watching this? It feels like a distraction from bigger issues.
