Here's the complete timeline of the feud between Jeff Bezos and the National Enquirer, including the ties to President Trump (AMZN)

Bezos Pecker Trump 4X3
  • On Thursday, Jeff Bezos published a bombshell blog post in which he claimed that the National Enquirer was engaging in "extortion and blackmail" over his intimate personal texts and photos.
  • It's the latest dramatic development in a feud that started in early January, when Bezos announced that he and wife MacKenzie Bezos were seeking a divorce shortly before a story in the National Enquirer revealed that the Amazon CEO was having an extramarital affair with former TV anchor Lauren Sanchez.
  • The story has only gotten more complicated, as Bezos himself has insinuated that there could have been political motives behind the investigation into his personal life.
  • Here's what you need to know about the saga, and how it involves President Donald Trump.

Trump has historically been highly critical of Bezos, Amazon, and the Washington Post. On Twitter, Trump also took aim at the Bezos-owned "lobbyist newspaper."
