The newspaper on Saturday described the chief of staff's rise in the Trump White House and his current standing in an article titled “ ’When you lose that power’: How John Kelly faded as White House disciplinarian."

Sources told The Hill in a report last week that Kelly's influence in the White House has faded in recent months.

Trump often publicly attacks media outlets that publish stories about the administration and has called the Post and other outlets “fake news.”

He has also called the Post the “chief lobbyist” for Amazon. The online retailer's chief executive, Jeff Bezos, owns the newspaper.
