Rogers Campaign Staff Linked to Israeli Foreign Agents
Report reveals two campaign staffers for Michigan Senate nominee Mike Rogers are registered as Israeli foreign agents.

Two members of Republican Michigan Senate nominee Mike Rogers’ campaign appear to be registered as foreign agents for Israel, according to a report published by Drop Site News. The report highlights the involvement of Abigail Ronson, a campaign spokeswoman and paid consultant for Rogers, and Jesse Stokes, a communications specialist, both of whom are listed as foreign agents under the Israeli government’s contract with Convergence Media.
Israeli Influence in Campaign
The report indicates that Ronson, a digital communications specialist at Convergence Media, was recruited by Brad Parscale, a former Trump campaign manager and registered agent for the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to disseminate pro-Israel views on social media. Ronson also played a key role in shaping the ‘buff AI’ campaign photo of Rogers and organizing a press conference for the ‘Democrats for Mike Rogers’ group.
Stokes, who is also listed as a foreign agent, seems to have authored some of Rogers’ press releases announcing his Senate run. The report further states that Convergence Media, which Parscale co-founded, received millions from the Rogers campaign for the 2026 election cycle, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings.
Political and Financial Ties
The Great Lakes Conservatives Fund, which is the largest source of funding for the ‘Democrats for Mike Rogers’ group, has contributed over $4 million so far. The fund has a history of working with Eyesover LLC, an AI company run by Parscale, which he used for his Israeli FARA work. Additionally, Parscale accidentally registered Clock Tower X as directly working with Israel in his FARA filings before correcting them to show that his client was instead an Israeli media company.
Rogers’ campaign did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment, but the report raises serious questions about the transparency and potential foreign influence in the Michigan Senate race. The involvement of Israeli agents in the campaign adds a layer of complexity to the already contentious race, which has seen former Democratic primary candidate Haley Stevens endorse Rogers just days before the midterms.
