Part Six - Ezra Cohen-Watnick
While Oracle, Q, and the Trump administration are close mouthed about Ezras role at Oracle, it does seem as though Ellison has been generously backing someone whom the other reports have noted in connection to Ezra: David Nunez.
Excerpt from the NY Times article, which is the one Q posted TWICE:
National Security Council aides usually draw little public scrutiny, but Mr. Cohen-Watnick was swept up in the tumult of early 2017 when Mr. Trump accused the previous administration, without evidence, of wiretapping his phones at Trump Tower.
MR. TRUMPS ALLEGATIONS WERE BOLSTERED BY REPRESENTATIVE DEVIN NUNES OF CALIFORNIA, THE REPUBLICAN CHAIRMAN OF THE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, WHO SAID HE HAD EVIDENCE THAT MR. TRUMPS COMMUNICATIONS WERE INCIDENTALLY SWEPT UP IN SURVEILLANCE OF FOREIGNERS BY AMERICAN SPY AGENCIES.
MR. NUNES DID NOT DIVULGE THE SOURCES OF THIS INFORMATION, BUT AMERICAN OFFICIALS LATER TOLD THE NEW YORK TIMES THAT MR. COHEN-WATNICK, AT THE INSTRUCTION OF TWO SENIOR WHITE HOUSE OFFICIALS, HELPED PRINT INTELLIGENCE REPORTS THAT LATER SERVED AS MR. NUNESS PROOF .
[EZRA HAS THE GOODS which “bolsters” Trump’s claims of “wiretapping.” In other words, it appears to me as though he HAS THE PROOF of that spying.]
And so now, lookie here!
This may be of interest to our own Oracle living in Nunez district - bagster - as well as our other California FReeQs!

Silicon Valley Billionaire Ellison Backs Nunes Reelection Bid
Bill McEwen February 13, 2018
The Daily Beast reports that top Oracle executives have given so much money to Rep. Devin Nunes reelection campaign that some contributions had to be returned.
In a story headlined The Silicon Valley Giant Bankrolling Devin Nunes, reporter Lachlan Markay details contributions from five Oracle executives totaling nearly $35,000.
What made the donations stand out, however, was not the size of them$35,000 was a relatively small amount considering the more than $1.2 million that Nunes has raised so far this cycle. It was the timing of the giving, Markay writes.
Oracle Hires Former Trump Intelligence Aid
THE REPORTER GOES ON TO EXPLAIN THAT EZRA COHEN-WATNICK, FORMERLY A TOP INTELLIGENCE AIDE IN THE TRUMP WHITE HOUSE LINKED TO FORMER NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER MICHAEL FLYNN, JOINED ORACLE JUST WEEKS BEFORE ITS EXECUTIVES BEGAN WRITING CHECKS TO NUNES.
COHEN-WATNICK AND FLYNN ARE CLOSE POLITICAL ALLIES OF NUNES, A REPUBLICAN WHO CHAIRS THE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE.
Flynn, a retired U.S. Army general, pleaded guilty in December to lying to the FBI about conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey I. Kislyak in late 2016.
Ellison Is a Political Outlier in Silicon Valley
In addition, Markay explains that Oracle is a Republican outlier in Silicon Valley, and its executives right-leaning politics (and political contributions) present opportunities in Trumps Washington unavailable to competitors like Amazon, a frequent target of (President) Trumps ire. Oracles chairman and chief technology officer is Larry Ellison. Forbes estimates Ellisons financial worth is $58.9 billion.
Nunes Has History of Landslide Victories
Nunes, of Tulare, customarily wins reelection by landslide margins in a district with a large Republican voter registration edge.
This year, three Democrats are challenging Nunes in Californias 22nd District. One of them, Fresno County assistant district attorney Andrew Janz, is receiving national attention. That attention is largely the result of Nunes controversial chairmanship of the House Intelligence Committee.
THE DAILY BEAST STORY GOES INTO GREAT DETAIL ABOUT COHEN-WATNICKS RELATIONSHIP WITH NUNES. IT ALSO EXPLAINS WHY SOME OF THE ORACLE DONATIONS HAD TO BE RETURNED. YOU CAN READ THE STORY AT THIS LINK.
