AMAZON WANTS TO

QUESTION TRUMP OVER

LOSING $10B CONTRACT BID

Amazon wants President Donald Trump to

submit to questioning over the tech company’s

losing bid for a $10 billion military contract.

The Pentagon awarded the cloud computing

project to Microsoft in October. Amazon later

sued, arguing that Trump’s interference and bias

against the company harmed Amazon’s chances.

Amazon was considered an early front-

runner for a project that Pentagon officials

have described as critical to advancing the

U.S. military’s technological advantage over

adversaries. The project, known as Joint

Enterprise Defense Infrastructure, or JEDI, will

store and process vast amounts of classified

data, allowing the U.S. military to improve

communications with soldiers on the battlefield

and use artificial intelligence to speed up its war

planning and fighting capabilities.
