Parscale's Clock Tower X Registers Under FARA for an Israel-Funded U.S. "Anti-Semitism" Media Campaign Routed Through Havas Media Germany

Brad Parscale’s Clock Tower X LLC, a single-member Delaware LLC (organized 2025-06-11) with a Medina, Ohio address, filed its FARA registration statement on 2025-09-18 (received by the FARA Unit 7:32 PM that day), registration no. 7649. The statement listed two foreign principals, the State of Israel and “HAVAS Media Network” (Frankfurt), and answered “No” to every question about money received or disbursed before registration.

The 2025-09-18 filing named the wrong principal. An amendment filed 2025-10-20 states: “The foreign principal was incorrectly named in the initial registration. The correct name of the foreign principal is State of Israel via Havas Media Germany GmbH.” The later six-month supplemental then reports the registrant’s connection with the State of Israel as a separate principal ended 2025-10-13 and says registration for that principal “was in error” (see the 2026-05-18 entry).

What the contract says. The Exhibit B (a Clock Tower draft dated 2025-08-27, Services Agreement effective “September [8], 2025”, between Havas Media Germany GmbH and Clock Tower) recites that Havas “has been engaged by or on behalf of the State of Israel” for a campaign “to combat antisemitism in the United States.” The initial SOW provides a combined budget pool of USD 1.5 million a month for four months from Havas (so $6 million, plus any Agency matching funds), and these deliverables: audience and sentiment research including Gen Z; “influence and network maps identifying high-impact voices, communities, and distribution nodes”; at least 100 root creative assets and 5,000 monthly variants of creative; at least 80 percent of content tailored to Gen Z across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and podcasts; integration into Salem Media Network properties; paid media of at least 50 million impressions a month at a target CPM under $2.00; and a MarketBrew AI search-optimization line item including “websites and content to deliver GPT framing results on GPT conversations.” Subcontractors are expressly permitted (“Third-Party Providers”).

This confirms the Gen Z, TikTok/Instagram/YouTube, 5,000-variant, 50-million-impression and “influence and network maps” terms reported by The Leah Files. The agreement text describes Havas as retained by the State of Israel; the money in the filings comes from Havas Media Germany GmbH, not directly from an Israeli account.

Dates, by kind. Organization: 2025-06-11. Services Agreement draft: 2025-08-27; effective date bracketed 2025-09-08. FARA registration filed: 2025-09-18. Principal-name amendment filed: 2025-10-20. Exhibit B amendment and full contract filed: 2025-12-26.
