⛔️Oracle was founded in 1977. Its first major client was the CIA. The company’s name came from a CIA project code-named “Oracle.” ⛔️Co-founder Larry Ellison (Jewish by heritage, raised in a Jewish family) has been one of the largest private donors to Friends of the IDF. ⛔️In 2017 he gave $16.6 million, the largest single gift in the organization’s history at the time, on top of earlier multi-million-dollar donations, plus other support for Israeli causes and close personal ties to Netanyahu. ⛔️In 2024, Ellison described a future of AI-analyzed cameras everywhere (body cams, doorbells, dash cams, security feeds) feeding into massive data centers: “Citizens will be on their best behavior because we are constantly recording and reporting everything that’s going on.” ⛔️Oracle remains deeply embedded in U.S. government work, including a recent multi-billion-dollar Pentagon software deal covering the military and intelligence community, while Ellison helps drive the $500 billion Stargate AI data-center buildout announced alongside Trump, and maintains high-level relationships in Washington and Jerusalem. ⛔️That same network now extends into the information layer. Through his son David and Oracle’s capital, the Ellison family has assembled a media portfolio that includes Paramount and CBS, is positioned to take control of Warner Bros. Discovery (CNN, HBO, and the Warner studio library), and holds a significant stake in TikTok’s U.S. operations. ⛔️The result is ownership spanning major broadcast and cable news, Hollywood production and libraries, and a dominant short-form platform, acquired and expanded with the benefit of the same political access that greases the government and AI infrastructure deals. ⛔️With the surveillance infrastructure, the government contracts, the foreign military philanthropy, and the political access all converging on the same network, who do you think really shapes how our government operates
