Amazon CEO orders 20-man army to dig up dirt on Trump
Billionaire owner of Washington Post demands story blitz on every phase of Donald's life
Published: 13 hours ago
Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos, who is also a Democratic Party donor and controls a personal investment firm that owns the Washington Post, has ordered an army of 20 staffers to scour Donald Trump’s life for any dirt they can find on the presumptive GOP nominee.
“There’s a lot we don’t know,” Washington Post Associate Editor Bob Woodward told the National Association of Realtors Convention in Washington on Wednesday. “We have 20 people working on Trump. We’re going to do a book. We’re doing articles about every phase of his life.”
Woodward specifically said he has been investigating Trump’s real-estate deals in New York, according to a report in the Washington Examiner.
“The New York real-estate world is more complex than the CIA,” he said.
Bezos, a Seattle billionaire and the world’s 19th wealthiest man, purchased the Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million.

In February, Trump accused Bezos of buying the paper to increase his political influence.
“[Bezos] bought the Washington Post to have political influence, and I gotta tell you, we have a different country than we used to have. He wanted political influence so that Amazon will benefit from it – that’s not right,” Trump told supporters during a rally in Fort Worth, Texas. “And believe me, if I become president, oh, do they have problems. They’re going to have such problems.”
Later in the same speech, Trump said, “When they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money.”
