I think this is the source of the story. It's from James Truman's and Michael Wolff's podcast Fire and Fury. You may remember Michael from his media appearances after writing his book by the same name about the beginning of the Trump administration.
I haven't listened to it, but no one has yet linked to it in these comments.
i use bookshop.org whenever i need to order a book online. a portion of the sale goes to my local book coop.
