驻希腊大使吉尔福伊尔被曝请金主代付10万美元卡债，民主党要求审查
据《信使日报》援引《华尔街日报》10月7日至8日的报道，美国驻希腊大使金伯利·吉尔福伊尔因新曝光的短信面临审视：她在短信中请北肯塔基州一名律师、共和党大金主代付10万美元的美国运通信用卡账单。
据报道，吉尔福伊尔于2025年7月3日——在其参议院确认听证会之前——发短信给埃里克·德特斯，请他当天代付卡债。德特斯正寻求经由她接触特朗普政府官员，商谈税务和法律事务，包括阿布巴卡尔·阿提克·杜拉尼医生的引渡案；多年来，德特斯还为其“自由节”活动向她支付了30万美元出场费。
德特斯的律师质疑这些短信的真实性。民主党人要求国务院审查此事。10月8日，德特斯在MSNBC节目中回击了相关报道，对报道的说法提出异议。
吉尔福伊尔曾是福克斯新闻主播，2025年获确认为驻希腊大使。
Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle Scrutinized Over Texts Asking Donor to Pay $100K AmEx Bill
U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle is facing scrutiny over newly reported text messages in which she asked a Northern Kentucky attorney and major Republican donor to pay her $100,000 American Express bill, the Courier Journal reported, citing Wall Street Journal reporting from October 7-8.
According to the report, Guilfoyle texted Eric Deters on July 3, 2025 — before her Senate confirmation hearing — asking him to pay the card balance that day. Deters, who has sought Guilfoyle's help reaching Trump administration officials on tax and legal matters, including the extradition case of Dr. Abubakar Atiq Durrani, has also paid her $300,000 in speaking fees for his Freedom Fest events over the years.
Deters' attorney has questioned the authenticity of the text messages. Democrats have called for a State Department review of the matter. On October 8, Deters pushed back against the reporting in an MSNBC appearance, disputing the characterization of the exchanges.
Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host, was confirmed as ambassador to Greece in 2025.
