It's not like Jeff Bezos had private dinners with Jeffrey Epstein or invited Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell to his private, invitation only, weekend retreat at a private resort he rented out.
Oh wait, he did exactly that and probably a bunch more.

I love how it says he's the founder of AWS. Amazon (the online store) is basically a side business for him, AWS is the real cash cow.
Significantly higher margins and bigger government contracts, particularly with state security services. So no surprise there.
But Amazon, as a retail business venture, generates significant profits on its own. What's more, it is gradually supplanting the USPS, which puts the business at the logistical center of a critical piece of US infrastructure. A classic "Too Big To Fail" setup that also guarantees Amazon a customer base indefinitely and lets them freeze out competitors as the USPS decays.
AWS is a bigger funnel of money, but Amazon retail and wholesale is an enormous economic footprint with lots of downstream political consequences.
And that cash cow also gives him lots of leverage to keep companies in line. Like if he wanted to prevent certain subjects or photos from going viral.
