we are happy to answer a question
respect
the people around you so that they can
hear
you don't play you don't play by the
same rules
let me tell you something i bet you
engage and go on online dating because
you're impressing no one here to get a
date in person
that's kimberly guilfoyle she's a former
fox news host
turned senior advisor for trump's 2020
campaign oh and she's also dating the
president's favorite son
but who is she who is kimberly gilfoyle
i'm pj evans the writer of this show and
this is the story of how one
former model went from being ousted at
fox news for allegedly showing
colleagues pictures of male genitalia
to running the president's 2020 campaign
kimberly ann guilfoyle was born in
crunchy 1960s san francisco to a puerto
rican mother who worked as a teacher
and an irish father who emigrated to the
united states in his twenties her father
would end up raising guilfoyle as a
single dad after her mother died of
leukemia when she was just 11 years old
guilfoyle went on to graduate magnum
cumulative from the university of
california davis she then attended law
school at the university of san
francisco where she was able to put
herself through by modeling on the side
making 300
an hour after obtaining a jd in 1994
gilfoyle worked as a prosecutor in san
francisco for a short stint
but quickly lost her job when a new
district attorney took the reins and
replaced all the city prosecutors with
his own picks
so she moved south and spent four years
in los angeles as a deputy district
attorney where she was named prosecutor
of the month
guilfoyle later returned to san
francisco married the soon-to-be city
mayor gavin newsom now the democrat
governor of california
and worked as an assistant district
attorney the case that made guilfoyle
famous
involved prosecuting the owners of two
vicious dogs that mauled and killed a
woman by ripping her neck open
it's actually a precedent setting case
in the united states for second degree
implied malice murder
because i charged the two attorneys that
owned the dogs
with murder brought it to the grand jury
was able to get a second degree
murder conviction i had a contract on my
life to have me killed
after making a name for herself in the
courtroom guilfoyle moved to new york
city to pursue a career in television
she hosted both sides on court tv
a show that unpacked the prosecution and
defense of the era's most
interesting cases when is generosity or
even giving people gifts
you know a motive for murder how is it
they said you know what she's bad woman
she shops the victoria's secret and went
by gifts
well you know you may be guilty too
exactly
i mean if that's the criteria these days
we're all in trouble
while on-camera workplace sexual
harassment was thriving
guilfoyle and newsome's relationship was
not it's unclear exactly why the two up
and comers ended it all
possibly because of the long distance or
maybe because of new some centrist-style
politics
modeled after the likes of dianne
feinstein and that just wasn't somehow
conservative enough for guilfoyle
the two filed for divorce in 2005. while
newsome was laying down his political
path
guilfoyle married eric valenci a product
designer who would eventually draw up
the blueprint for the peloton and
soulcycle bikes he also apparently
started an
axe commercial but the ladies in our
lives want to be able to grab our hair
run their fingers through it and that's
at odds with most of the crusty
products than most guys use but axe has
solved that problem
but acts couldn't fix all the problems
in 2009
valencia and guilfoyle called it quits
in the midst of their marriage
guilfoyle would join a tv network that
would one day lead to the white house in
2006
guilfoyle started hosting the lineup on
fox news
joining us now from san francisco fox
news anchor and former prosecutor
kimberly guilfoyle the show was canceled
but a short while later
guilfoyle began co-hosting fox news's
the five in 2011. here's guilfoyle
telling the panel's only black host that
he's wrong about police using excessive
force
but where are you getting your
information to say that there's a
serious problem with excessive use of
force by police
i don't even have to go anywhere i just
have to pick up the paper
and as i said no you don't what you're
talking about because now incidents
being reported or somebody has a camera
or a phone so i think it's totally legit
no i think it's actually blowing it up
like under a microscope guilfoyle
co-hosted the five for seven years
before announcing her departure from the
network
amid accusations of sexual misconduct
the huffington post
notes quote six sources said guilfoyle's
behavior
included showing personal photographs of
male genitalia
to colleagues and identifying whose
genitals they were
regularly discussing sexual matters at
work and engaging in emotionally abusive
behavior toward
hair and makeup artists and support
staff guilfoyle's attorney denied the
allegations and chalked it up to
disgruntled employees seeking financial
gain a daily beast report claimed
guilfoyle's enemies at fox had actively
planted negative stories and exaggerated
allegations
but fox wasn't a total bust because
somewhere along the way she caught the
eye of one former game show host
donald trump and his favorite son donald
trump jr maybe i like the glasses
oh thank you kind of very sexy look like
you helped me write a book or something
don jr's wife vanessa trump filed for
divorce
10 long years after this i just got back
from vietnam i was hosting the miss
universe pageant
it's the perfect excuse it's one of the
only times i can actually look at
beautiful women without getting into
serious trouble because vanessa can't
really blame me
you know we own it it's part of my job i
gotta do it just months after don jr and
vanessa trump called it quits
guilfoyle and the president's son began
dating good job junior i think i'm gonna
keep you around for a bit oh thank you
brother i appreciate that
in 2020 guilfoyle was named a top
fundraising official for the trump
re-election campaign
she is reportedly making 15 000 a month
working for her boyfriend's dad's
campaign
as mike pence's friend looks to secure
another term
after attending the president's no mask
required rally in tulsa where trump
successfully drank water with one hand
like some sort of michael jordan of
drinking water
guilfoyle contracted the coronavirus
she's the fourth person in the
president's vicinity
that we know of to test positive for the
virus until she's on the mend
guilfoyle will have to wait to help to
re-elect trump fortunately she's a
fighter and even once compared herself
to a black boxer wrongly accused of
murder
when i was deputy district attorney in
los angeles in the 1990s i had a
nickname
the hurricane like the late boxer reuben
hurricane carter so that's kimberly
guilfoyle a twice divorced former fox
news talking head and attorney with
coronavirus who is in a relationship
with her boss's son
what a time to be alive
