Sludge reports SKDK, a leading Democratic PR firm closely tied to Biden advisers and Sen. Chuck Schumer’s circle, has signed a $600K contract to run a “bot-based program” for Israel’s Foreign Ministry. Filed under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, the plan aims to “flood the zone” with pro-Israel content across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and more — likely using automation to boost reach. The deal also tasks SKDK with training Israeli spokespeople, testing influencer campaigns, and lobbying outlets like BBC, CNN, Fox, and AP for favorable coverage. Parent company Stagwell, founded by longtime Likud ally Mark Penn, is also deploying GOP affiliate Targeted Victory to work on Israel’s messaging.
