“Everything is coming together for Larry Ellison,” Ryan Grim and Murtaza Hussain write in the latest investigation for Drop Site.

The billionaire co-founder of Oracle, on-and-off-again richest man in the world, and a staunch supporter of Israel, is set to take a lead role in reshaping TikTok in the United States. His son, David, is moving to take over large swaths of the media, including CBS News, CNN, Warner Brothers, and Paramount and, per breaking news from Puck on Thursday afternoon, will bring in the Free Press’s Bari Weiss as Editor-in-Chief.

They don’t know. The people doing challenges as finger nail designs don’t talk politics. It’s just about keeping people glued to their screens so it’s easier to pick their pocket.
