A company run<\/span> by former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale, hired<\/a> by the Israeli government to push pro-Israel views on a major conservative media network, has directed $13 million from Israel to several Republican digital strategy firms and allies, according to a previously unreported document filed under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.\u00a0<\/p>\n Parscale was hired in part to influence major right-wing Christian media company Salem Media Group, where he is also an executive. His firm spent hundreds of thousands on ads with a Salem subsidiary. As part of the contract, Parscale\u2019s firm also sent millions to other firms run by some of his closest political allies.<\/p>\n Parscale has spent hundreds of thousands on ads with a subsidiary of Salem Media Group, where he is an executive.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n The new filing sheds light on a more detailed web of interconnected companies and political operatives capitalizing on Parscale\u2019s contract with the Israeli government. Many of the companies getting work as part of Parscale\u2019s Israel contract are being reported here for the first time.<\/p>\n Among those that received millions of dollars\u2019 worth of payments related to the contract are ventures like SparkFire, an AI chatbot company leading a mass texting campaign, and a shadowy firm run by longtime mainstream Republican strategist Mike Shields. (None of the figures or firms in this story responded to requests for comment.)<\/p>\n Israel initially directly hired Parscale\u2019s firm, Clock Tower X, last September with a contract worth $6 million. The new filing reveals that his firm has received over $15 million from Havas Media Network, an international media company, on behalf of the Israeli state.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The document shows that Parscale directed over $500,000 for ads to Salem Media Representatives, a subsidiary of Salem Media. Although Parscale was hired<\/a> to integrate pro-Israel messaging into Salem Media shows \u2014 which feature conservative commentators such as Hugh Hewitt, Larry Elder, and Scott Jennings \u2014 these payments to the conservative media conglomerate on behalf of Israel were not previously known.<\/p>\n Parscale, who is the chief strategy officer for Salem Media, is not the only registered representative of Israel working for the media company.\u00a0<\/p>\n One of Parscale\u2019s team members working on the Israel contract, Ashley Evdokimo, is Salem\u2019s vice president for communications. According to her LinkedIn profile<\/a>, Evdokimo, who works with Parscale at his digital strategy company Campaign Nucleus, took a position at Salem Media in September 2025, the same month that Parscale was hired to work for the Israeli government. A month later, Evdokimo registered as a foreign agent for Israel.<\/p>\n\n
