The U.S. ambassador to Greece has been busted begging for $100,000, a new report claims.

Guilfoyle, 57, now the U.S. ambassador to Greece, begged for a cash infusion from Eric Deters, a 63-year-old former congressional candidate from Kentucky, he tells the Wall Street Journal, which also reviewed alleged Signal texts between the two.

“It won’t show up anywhere if you wire money to American Express,” the Trump-appointed Guilfoyle texted Deters, according to the Journal. “Please.”

In another message shared with the Journal, she allegedly wrote: “Honey please I need you to get this done for me today. You could just send it here.”

The Journal reports that the latter text, complete with a prayer hands emoji and a PDF with bill payment instructions from American Express, was sent on July 3, 2025, less than a week before her July 9 confirmation hearing.

Was he about to be busted and that's why he did this? Maybe to get out in front off it. Something fucky is going on, there is no way that he did this because it was the right thing to do.

Edit: Wtf is going on in this administration?

“I wanted her help. The Wall Street Journal emphasized way too much that I had a civil tax issue relative to a deduction,” complained to Alexander before later adding, “Okay. She ambushed me out of the blue with this $100,000 American Express offer. And she offered me to be her 'ride and die forever’ if I did this. And to be very candid, I did not do it. But the reason why I did not do it is I didn't have that money at the time. It was the worst time that you could have ever asked me for another $100,000.”

“What does this do to change your view about Donald Trump and the administration that he leads?” Alexander asked.

“You and I might disagree with this, but here I can sum up my feelings about Trump in this easy. One: I like most of his policies. Two: I cannot stand his megalomania, his egomania, his, you know, Mount Rushmore talk and [Washington Mall] arch talk. I support the ballroom,” he replied.

Those texts read like a pig butchering catfisher, which is actually pretty on brand.
