<p>Two Washington Post Editorial Board members announced they would be stepping down on Monday, three days after the Left-leaning paper said it would <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/all-hell-breaks-loose-after-washington-post-declines-to-endorse-kamala" target="_blank" rel="noopener">not make an endorsement</a> in the 2024 presidential race.</p>
<p>The Editorial Board of The Washington Post, the newspaper owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, said on Friday, &#8220;We are returning to our roots of not endorsing presidential candidates&#8221; after it began making endorsements in <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/patrick-pexton-the-posts-endorsements-historically-tend-democratic/2012/11/02/6890a49a-250a-11e2-ba29-238a6ac36a08_story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">1976</a>. The Post&#8217;s Editorial Board has never endorsed a Republican presidential candidate.</p>
<p>Many writers on The Washington Post&#8217;s opinion staff were outraged after the paper&#8217;s decision, and anti-Trump Editor-at-Large Robert Kagan <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/washington-post-editor-large-quits-after-paper-declines-endorse-presidential-candidate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resigned</a> from his position shortly after the Editorial Board made the announcement. Editorial Board members Molly Roberts and David Hoffman resigned on Monday.</p>
<p>&#8220;Let’s say that an editorial board had a decades long practice of not endorsing candidates for president: This would be the election to reverse that position and take a stand. That the Washington Post editorial board has been forced to do the opposite dishonors our values and robs us of our purpose,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/mollylroberts/status/1850959925683351776">wrote</a> Roberts. &#8220;To be very clear, the decision not to endorse this election was not the editorial board’s. It was (you can read the reporting) Jeff Bezos’s. By registering my dissent, I don’t intend to impugn the conduct of any of my colleagues, all of whom were put in nearly impossible positions.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I’m resigning from The Post editorial board because the imperative to endorse Kamala Harris over Donald Trump is about as morally clear as it gets. Worse, our silence is exactly what Donald Trump wants: for the media, for us, to keep quiet,&#8221; Roberts added.</p>

<p>New York Times reporter Ben Mullin <a href="https://x.com/BenMullin/status/1850955715604848802" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on X that Hoffman is stepping down from his position on the Editorial Board but will stay at the Post.</p>
<p>“While leaving the board, I refuse to give up on The Post, where I have spent 42 years,” Hoffman wrote in a letter to David Shipley, the Post&#8217;s editorial page editor.</p>
<p>&#8220;I believe we face a very real threat of autocracy in the candidacy of Donald Trump. I find it untenable and unconscionable that we have lost our voice at this perilous moment,&#8221; Hoffman <a href="https://x.com/maxwelltani/status/1850957847359639845" target="_blank" rel="noopener">added</a>.</p>

<p>Leftist editors and reporters at the Post expressed their outrage on Friday after the paper declined to endorse Vice President Kamala Harris over former President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah <a href="https://x.com/KarenAttiah/status/1849876910337106424" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>, &#8220;Today has been an absolute stab in the back. What an insult to those of us who have literally put our careers and lives on the line, to call out threats to human rights and democracy.&#8221;</p>
<p>Reporter Brianna Sacks lamented the decision, <a href="https://x.com/bri_sacks/status/1849844672836899105" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing</a>, &#8220;We won a Pulitzer for public service for our coverage of the Jan. 6 insurrection.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Los Angeles Times, another Left-leaning newspaper, also <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/los-angeles-times-snubs-kamala-wont-endorse-in-2024-white-house-race" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declined</a> to make an endorsement in the 2024 race after backing Democrats in every election since 2008.</p>
