Israeli government foreign agents embedded in US Senate campaign of Mike Rogers, filings reveal —— According to an investigation by Drop Site News based on federal disclosures under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), two key media operatives serving US Senate candidate Mike Rogers' campaign in Michigan are simultaneously registered foreign agents for the Israeli government. Disclosures show that campaign spokesperson Abigail Ronson and staffer Jesse Stokes—both employed by GOP media firm Convergence Media—have been executing foreign influence work on behalf of Tel Aviv while shaping press communications and public messaging for the Republican candidate. Federal filings reveal that Ronson and Stokes were subcontracted through former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale’s Clocktower X LLC as part of a $46.5 million media contract funded by the Israeli government via Havas Media Network. The contract explicitly tasks operatives with strategic communications, social media manipulation, and seeding artificial intelligence models with pro-Israel messaging across the US. Despite Rogers' campaign receiving millions in payments from vendor Convergence Media and utilizing Ronson as an official media liaison, campaign leadership previously denied she was a direct staffer following public controversy over campaign materials. The exposure of foreign agents embedded within a high-stakes US Senate race highlights the extensive influence operations deployed by Israeli state entities to direct US electoral politics. The revelations come alongside reporting that pro-Israel super PACs—including the AIPAC-backed Great Lakes Conservatives Fund—have injected millions of dollars into astroturfed campaign groups to attack opposition candidates and bolster candidates committed to maintaining unconditional US military and financial support for Israel.
