Ashley Hinson’s Digital Chief Oversees Firm Paid Millions to Push Israeli Propaganda

Ashley Hinson, a Republican senatorial candidate from Iowa, has appointed Abe Adams as the lead digital strategist for her campaign. Targeted Victory, a digital consulting firm co-founded by Adams, has been hired by Hinson's campaign to push pro-Israel propaganda. This firm received a significant $9.9 million contract from Israel to influence Americans through social media and paid advertising.

Targeted Communications Global, a related company with no online presence, shares an address and many of its staff with Targeted Victory. The two are subsidiaries of marketing company Stagwell Global. Since October 2025, Targeted Communications has been actively promoting content on Fox News, CNN, and YouTube, suggesting that Iranians are indoctrinated to harm Christians.

Hinson, who is endorsed by President Donald Trump and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), has shown support for Trump's military presence in Iran. The Department of Justice's FARA filing from Targeted Communications reveals that the firm employed 10 registered foreign agents, six of whom work for Targeted Victory.

Ash Hinson's campaign manager, Addison Lavis, previously worked at Targeted Victory and as an intern at AIPAC. Hinson has received over $100,000 from AIPAC and related pro-Israel PACs in 2026, and she has supported legislation against working with boycott Israel companies. Israel's $9.9 million contract with Targeted Communications is part of a broader $100 million public relations campaign aiming to sway public opinion in favor of Israel, particularly among young conservatives.
