The Senate's blocking of Trump's agenda is driven by donor networks, centered on Oracle's Larry Ellison and his ties to Tony Blair, whose Institute spent years building the case for an Iran regime-change war.
By Barbara Boyd
Barbara Boyd argues the Senate’s repeated blocking of Donald Trump’s agenda is driven less by narrow Republican margins than by powerful donor networks, focusing on Oracle founder Larry Ellison and his ties to Tony Blair.
She profiles Ellison’s major political spending, including backing Tim Scott, Lindsey Graham, and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), and links it to Senate leadership under John Thune, a longtime Mitch McConnell protégé aligned with what she describes as the postwar globalist order.
Boyd argues that understanding the flow of money and influence is critical to understanding why significant portions of President Donald Trump’s legislative agenda continue to face resistance in Washington despite Republican electoral success.
The Money: Larry Ellison and the Senate
According to Boyd, Larry Ellison has become one of the most influential political donors in the United States, with extensive financial ties to key Republican figures and Senate fundraising operations.
She contends that this donor network exerts significant influence over Senate leadership and policy direction, creating obstacles for policies associated with the Trump movement.
The report highlights Ellison's support for several high-profile Republican politicians and organizations, arguing that donor influence remains a central factor in shaping legislative outcomes.

Boyd then turns to former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and the Tony Blair Institute.
According to the report, Blair’s network spent years developing policy arguments supporting regime change in Iran through institutions and advocacy groups including the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI).
Boyd argues that while military action occurred against Iranian nuclear infrastructure, President Trump stopped short of endorsing broader regime change objectives.
The report suggests this created tension between Trump’s strategic approach and the objectives of foreign policy networks that have advocated interventionist policies for decades.
The Surveillance State They're Building
A major focus of the presentation is what Boyd describes as the emergence of a new surveillance and control architecture.
According to the report, Blair has increasingly shifted toward promoting digital governance systems, including digital identity programs and broader technological monitoring frameworks.
Boyd argues these initiatives are being presented under new branding, including concepts associated with a so-called "Radical Center" political movement.
The report contends that these technologies could significantly expand state and institutional oversight over individuals and economic activity.
A Political Call To Action
The presentation concludes with a political appeal to supporters of President Trump.
Boyd argues that future elections, particularly the midterm elections, will be critical in determining whether Senate leadership remains aligned with existing donor structures or shifts toward policies more closely associated with the Trump movement.
According to Boyd, overwhelming electoral victories would be required to overcome what she characterizes as entrenched institutional resistance within Washington.
