Kathy Griffin tweeted out a brief message on Thursday, “Yes, it’s true,” after a report came out that she was interviewed by Secret Service over the July 4 weekend.
Yes, it’s true.

Her tweet contained no context or further description, but a number of outlets, including the Daily Beast, reported that it suggested that the comedienne was acknowledging the interview.
Journalist Yashar Ali tweeted Sunday that Griffin was interviewed face-to-face by Secret Service agents for “over an hour” over the weekend after an investigation was opened more than a month ago into a photograph in which Griffin posed with a fake, decapitated head that portrayed President Trump.
Griffin revealed last month that she was under federal investigation. Ali claims that the investigation is ongoing.
A number of reports on that story, including from the Huffington Post and Entertainment Weekly said Griffin’s representative and legal team did not reply to requests for comment.
