Kamala Harris’ billionaire friend Laurene Powell Jobs owns liberal mag behind ‘widely disputed’ Trump report
Fox News
Billionaire philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of late Apple visionary Steve Jobs, has a "genuine friendship" with Vice President Kamala Harris and owns The Atlantic.
Powell Jobs and Harris are both 60-year-old women who rose to prominence in liberal Northern California, but they have much more in common. The New York Times reported last month that Powell Jobs, who is reportedly worth north of $11 billion, is one of Harris’ "most essential confidantes" who has shelled out cash and provided counsel in order to help expand the vice president’s public profile.

"Now, in this year’s presidential race, the wealthiest woman in Silicon Valley has emerged as a powerful player behind the scenes. She has quietly contributed millions of dollars to an organization backing Ms. Harris, according to three people briefed on the gifts," the Times reported.
