Turning towards politics, Ellison’s connections extend beyond entertainment. His political associations, notably with Netanyahu and Trump’s administration, have sparked controversy.

Zaslav's pro-Trump stance, his pushback against regulatory pressures, and perceived alignment with right-leaning narratives have made him a focal point of partisan debate.
