Trump fundraiser Kimberly Guilfoyle halts interview with Jan. 6 panel

WASHINGTON — The legal team for Kimberly Guilfoyle, a Trump campaign fundraiser, brought an abrupt halt to her interview Friday with the House Committee investigating last year’s riot at the U.S. Capitol, saying panel members were leaking details.

“Ms. Guilfoyle, under threat of subpoena, agreed to meet exclusively with counsel for the Select Committee in a good faith effort to provide true and relevant evidence,” lawyer Joseph Tacopina, said in a statement posted on Guilfoyle’s verified Twitter account.

Tacopina said Guilfoyle’s legal team called for a break when committee members he described as “notorious for leaking information” also took part in the remote interview. He said those concerns “were validated as the Committee within less than two minutes leaked news of the break to the media.”
