I didn't know much about her, but I found these interesting tidbits about her that add to the equation:
Griffin was born on June 15, 1989, in Los Angeles. Her father, Joseph Farah, is a journalist of Syrian and Lebanese descent who was executive news editor at the Los Angeles Herald Examiner before moving to Northern California to become editor of The Sacramento Union in 1990. Father is a hard-right conservative.
In addition to appearing on CNN as a commentator, she is a co-host of the talk show The View, for which she received a nomination for a Daytime Emmy Award.
In September 2017, she was appointed special assistant to the president and press secretary to Vice President Mike Pence. As press secretary to the vice president, she traveled with Pence on numerous trips, domestic and foreign, and was part of the official U.S. delegations to the Munich Security Conference and ASEAN Summit.
The day before January 6, 2021, United States Capitol attack,Griffin publicly condemned Trump supporters for harassing Senator Mitt Romney. She denounced the attack, and days later, on January 8, blamed Trump for inciting the attack and suggested that he should resign.
In a February 7, 2021, interview on CNN, Griffin questioned the constitutionality of the second impeachment of Donald Trump and stated she believed censuring would be more appropriate. When asked if she would support censure after the impeachment if it fails, she said it was "an open question" before recommending the country should "move on" from the Capitol raid.
During her testimony to the January 6 select committee in September 2022, Cassidy Hutchinson claimed that Griffin agreed to act as her backchannel so she could avoid letting her attorney Stefan Passantino, a Trump loyalist, know that she was giving additional testimony.
In 2020, Griffin became engaged to Justin Griffin, a graduate of the New York University Stern School of Business and a grandson of Republican Party activist Samuel A. Tamposi. They were married in November 2021. In 2022, Griffin revealed on The View that members of her family, including her father and step-mother, boycotted her wedding because of her differences with Trump.
