Trump is a sexist.

He fired Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi, and now Kimberly Guilfoyle despite their personal loyalty, even to accept bad plastic surgery.

Meanwhile, his incompetent and vain men like Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel are still there.

Simple sexism.

Opinion | Kimberly Guilfoyle resigned. But the scandal is not over.

Retired Amb. James Story: Those of us who have been ambassadors understand the honor of representing the United States — and those who break the public’s trust should be held accountable.

My take on Greece's vassalage viz. the US and Israel. Plus the absurd ambassadorship of Kimberly Guilfoyle, until today US Ambassador here in Athens. On ABC Late Night Live chatting with Davidd Marr on.soundcloud.com/CSqLBpM1BsN1...

On ABC Late Night Live discussing Greece's defence deals with the US and Israel. Also, why Kimberly Guilfoyle, the hapless US Ambassador to Greece is a case Trumpism in South and Eastern Europe

It’s a sequencing problem. Get the position in the Trump administration, THEN do the corruption.

🚨 BREAKING: Kimberly Guilfoyle is OUT as Ambassador to Greece, shortly after we learned the White House requested her resignation.

She allegedly hit up a donor to pay her $100K AmEx bill in exchange for access. She flew on private jets from an energy firm she pushed. Now she’s under an IG probe.
