Kimberly Guilfoyle, the U.S. ambassador to Greece, could soon be out of a job

The Associated Press reports President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are, quote

The allegations include claims that Guilfoyle asked a Trump donor to pay off a $100,000 credit

accused of threatening a Greek official and accepting improper gifts and services

0:41
owed for public appearances. Quote, we are evaluating all available legal remedies to

whip John Barrasso says the reports are troubling and he expects an investigation. Here he is on CBS

1:11
into that as well, but I think the public has a right to know what was what is found

1:20
already looking into the allegations, though it's unclear whether a formal investigation has begun
