Kimberly Guilfoyle, fiancee of Donald Trump Jr. and a former co-host of "The Five" on Fox News, warned viewers on a right-wing network Wednesday to be on the lookout for manipulated voting machines — a MAGA-pushed conspiracy theory that has cost major networks hundreds of millions of dollars in defamation lawsuits.
Speaking on Real America's Voice, Guilfoyle told viewers "We're going to be on the lookout for any of this 'thousand mules' nonsense."
She added, "I really don't think that's going to be the playbook," she said.

The term "2000 Mules" refers to a controversial and widely debunked political film that promotes conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election. The film was created by right-wing commentator Dinesh D'Souza and claims that paid "mules" illegally collected and deposited ballots into drop boxes in swing states.
However, Guilfoyle said she has concerns about "the machines."
"That I think is very important," she said. "We want to make sure there is no manipulation whatsoever, that only legal, lawful votes are counted. One vote per person. Shocking, you know, proposition there."
Voting machine conspiracies — popularized by right-wingers, particularly coinciding with Trump's 2020 so-called "big lie" that the election was stolen — have cost major networks, particularly Fox News, significant financial damages.
Dominion Voting Systems filed a defamation lawsuit against the network alleging it spread false claims about their machines rigging the election. Fox News agreed last year to settle the case for $787 million.
Additionally, Smartmatic, another voting tech company, also accused Fox News of defamation case for spreading false claims that the firm helped rig the 2020 election.
