Key Details of Alleged Israeli Interference

Psy-Group Proposals: An Israeli private intelligence firm called Psy-Group, staffed by former Israeli intelligence operatives, presented proposals for social media manipulation and opposition research on Hillary Clinton to the Trump campaign. These proposals included using fake online personas to target voters in swing states and gather “actionable intelligence” through “covert sources”. The Trump campaign reportedly did not act on these specific proposals.
Contacts with Roger Stone: Redacted FBI documents and reports indicate communications between Trump associate Roger Stone and individuals identified as high-ranking Israeli officials. In one message, an individual in Jerusalem told Stone, “He [Trump] is going to be defeated unless we intervene. We have critical intell [sic]. The key is in your hands!”.
Netanyahu Government Ties: The individuals involved, including a Republican consultant named George Birnbaum, had ties to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing coalition and had worked on his past campaigns.
Jared Kushner & Michael Flynn: Michael Flynn, who became Trump’s first National Security Advisor, and Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and advisor, were involved in communications regarding a UN Security Council resolution on Israeli settlements. Flynn’s efforts to get Russia to delay the vote were reportedly made at Kushner’s direction to protect Israel from international criticism.
Investigative Findings: Investigative journalist James Bamford, in his book Spyfail, asserts that Netanyahu dispatched a secret agent to the US in spring 2016 to assist Donald Trump’s campaign and offer intelligence against Clinton, which he claims was ignored by media fixated on Russia.

While Russian interference was extensively documented in bipartisan Senate reports, the alleged Israeli efforts received less public scrutiny during the immediate aftermath of the election, though details emerged later through media reports and special counsel documents. [1, 4, 8, 9]
