Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple founder Steve Jobs, is the majority stakeholder in the publication. Powell Jobs was named by The New York Times among those who financed at least $500,000 of then-presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's campaign in the 2nd quarter this year.
According to the Federal Election Commission campaign finance data, Powell Jobs poured $610,600, the legal limit for donations Vox reported, into the Biden Victory Fund, posted on Jun. 19.
In response to these recently-circulated findings, Donald Trump Jr. snapped back on Twitter.
"But The Atlantic is a totally unbiased 'news outlet,' and not just propaganda for Joe Biden," the president's son tweeted. … September 4, 2020

Powell Jobs is also no stranger to rebutting Trump. She wrote a blog post in 2017 titled "DACA's Demise Betrays the Best of America."

In 2017, Vox reported that the Silicon Valley entrepreneur acquired majority stake in the century-and-a-half old magazine from David Bradley, chairman of Atlantic Media who bought the publisher for $10 million two decades prior.
Bradley intended to remain a minority stakeholder while running the outlet for the following three to five years. Emerson Collective, the organization founded by Powell Jobs, then moved to purchase Bradley’s remaining interest with full ownership.
…
Then in 2019, the billionaire assumed greater control as Bradley stepped away from his management duties, according to Politico.
With an estimated net worth of $21.8 billion, Powell Jobs spends her fortunes backing other Democratic candidates, including New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker and Maine Congressman Jared Golden's re-elections.
Just after Biden picked his vice presidential running mate Sen. Kamala Harris, Powell Jobs commended Biden on Twitter.
"Joe Biden you made a great choice!" she tweeted.
