Tech billionaire Larry Ellison gave a massive $15 million donation to a super PAC aligned with Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) in January, one of the biggest political donations of the 2022 election cycle so far.
The contribution, detailed in a new campaign finance filing from Opportunity Matters Fund, is the latest and largest step in a budding political relationship between the senator and the Oracle chair. Ellison was already the pro-Scott super PACs biggest supporter, having given a pair of donations totaling $10 million in 2020 and 2021. Scott traveled to Ellisons Hawaii home on Lanai Island last year for a meeting, POLITICO reported.

The myth of American exceptionalism is alive and well.
