Mega billionaire Jeff Bezos alone made the decision to block The Washington Post, the newspaper he owns, from endorsing a presidential candidate. The Daily Beast has learned that even Will Lewis, Bezos‘ hand-picked publisher, fought Bezos “tooth and nail” from squelching the prepared editorial endorsing Kamala Harris for president.

The Washington Post won’t make an endorsement for president this year. Ben Mullin from the New York Times first reported the news, which was confirmed by CEO Will Lewis shortly thereafter. The announcement follows the same decision from the Los Angeles Times earlier this week, prompting a top editor to resign.

In 2019, Trump found his lever. Amazon was due to receive a $10 billion cloud-computing contract from the Pentagon. The Pentagon suddenly shifted course and denied Amazon the contract. A former speechwriter for Defense Secretary James Mattis reported that Trump had directed Mattis to “screw Amazon.”
