Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and White House officials traded Twitter blows this week, arguing taxes and inflation, political misdirection, and even the now-infamous Disinformation Governance Board.
It's the latest episode in an increasingly tense relationship between the Biden administration and one of Washington's most well-known part-time residents. Bezos owns the liberal-leaning Washington Post and the district's largest house and is building a second headquarters for Amazon across the Potomac in Arlington, Virginia, but finds himself at odds with President Joe Biden, whom he blames for high inflation.
