If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Amazon dropped $75M on the Melania doc — with a big chunk going into the Trumps' pockets.
Since then, Amazon Web Services got a $580M Pentagon contract.
And this week, Pete Hegseth visited Blue Origin facilities as the DoD overhauls how it hands out defense contracts.
Always follow the money.

NEW: House Speaker Mike Johnson baselessly claimed election results in “blue states” like California “just look on its face to be fraudulent,” echoing electoral conspiracy theories espoused by Trump.
The comments come as Republicans in Congress push to advance restrictive new voting legislation.
