Kimberly Guilfoyle, Donald Trump Jr.’s Fiancée, Subpoenaed By Jan. 6 Committee

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol subpoenaed Kimberly Guilfoyle Thursday.

Guilfoyle walked out of a voluntary interview last week when Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) joined the proceedings.

Guilfoyle, a former Fox News personality and the fiancée of Donald Trump Jr., both spoke and allegedly helped plan the rally that preceded the attack on the Capitol.

“Ms. Guilfoyle met with Donald Trump inside the White House, spoke at the rally that took place before the riot on January 6th, and apparently played a key role organizing and raising funds for that event. The Select Committee is seeking information from her about these and other matters,” Chair Bennie Thompson (D-MS) said in a statement.

“Because Ms. Guilfoyle backed out of her original commitment to provide a voluntary interview, we are issuing today’s subpoena that will compel her to testify. We expect her to comply with the law and cooperate,” he continued.

Guilfoyle, who was once married to Gavin Newsom (D-CA), has been a prominent figure in former President Donald’s orbit and was reportedly in the Oval Office the morning of Jan. 6.

“Though you professed to want to cooperate, you produced only 110 pages in response to 14 document requests, and you refused to proceed with your scheduled transcribed interview on February 25, 2022, claiming you had not been previously informed that Select Committee Members could observe and participate. Staff had in fact communicated to your attorneys that Members could be present, but nevertheless offered to reschedule the interview,” the panel’s subpoena stated.

The subpoena goes on to link Guilfoyle to other MAGA-world figures, including her influence over the content of Trump’s speech ahead of the attack on the Capitol, which many believe incited the events of Jan. 6:

You told one organizer that you ‘raised so much money for this. Literally one of my donors Julie at 3 million,’ a reference to Julie Fancelli, who did in fact finance the rally. You also communicated with others about the decision by President Trump about who was and was not allowed to speak at the rally, including concerns raised about him sharing the stage with people like Ali Alexander, Alex Jones, and Roger Stone.
