Here the New York Times is basically laying it out in plain sight that Israel controls the USA.
Read deep into the article and you find this:
Mr. Adelson in particular enjoys a direct line to the president. In private in-person meetings and phone conversations, which occur between the two men about once a month, he has used his access to push the president to move the United States embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and, more recently, cut aid to the Palestinians, according to people familiar with their discussions, who spoke anonymously to discuss private matters. Mr. Trump has done both, triggering a backlash from some American allies.
... Mr. Adelson plays an outsize, if largely behind-the-scenes, role in Israel. Long a staunch supporter of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he began financing a free, right-leaning tabloid newspaper, Israel Hayom, in 2007 that many Israelis consider a mouthpiece for Mr. Netanyahu. It has since become the largest-circulation Hebrew newspaper.
...The embassy move and other recent decisions by the president have been in line with the Adelsons’ worldview, which sees Israel’s existence in a state of perpetual uncertainty and facing potential obliteration. The Trump administration announced last month that it was cutting more than $200 million in aid to the Palestinians.
Mr. Trump installed a longtime Adelson ally and Iran hard-liner, John Bolton, as his national security adviser. Mr. Bolton displaced Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, whose ouster Mr. Adelson helped hasten when, after some hesitation, he decided to support a campaign that publicly accused the general of undermining Israel’s security.
The president has also begun to undo the nuclear nonproliferation deal the Obama administration negotiated with Iran, which many Republicans and conservative Israelis opposed.
The millions the Adelsons put behind Mr. Trump in 2016 — mainly through a super PAC that attacked Hillary Clinton — did not come until after it was clear that Mr. Trump would most likely be the Republican nominee. But it was funding that Mr. Trump badly needed given how many of the party’s other major donors had shunned him.
The Adelsons’ support remains critical to the administration as other longtime party donors recede. Though Mr. Adelson and Mr. Trump are not personally close, according to people who know both men, the Adelsons still believe that big money can produce big results, and that Mr. Trump can continue to deliver them if he has a Republican Congress behind him.
..The plan favored by some senior aides at the time, including Stephen K. Bannon, a key strategist for Mr. Trump, was to announce the embassy move on Inauguration Day, people familiar with the discussions said. Mr. Trump’s staff went so far as to look up the time the sun would go down that day — a Friday, the start of the Jewish Sabbath — so they could plan appropriately to have Jewish leaders like Mr. Adelson there for the announcement.

Casino magnate Sheldon Adelson and his wife, Miriam, donated $55 million to Republican electoral efforts in the last few months. That makes them the biggest spenders on federal elections in all of U.S. politics, according to campaign finance data. https://t.co/zmoZMrCcJh
