Audio: White House and NEA Employees Illegally Push Partisan Agenda

This is the bombshell Andrew Breitbart’s been hinting at for days. It’s audio of a conference call between Yosi Sergant, then National Endowment of the Arts communications director (he’s since been ‘reassigned’); Michael Skolnik, policital director for Russell Simmons; Nell Abernathy, outreach director from United We Serve which is overseen by the Corporation for National and Community Service (a federal agency); and Buffy Wicks, from the White House Office of Public Engagement.

John Nolte has broken down the call, along with the significance of the call at Big Hollywood. In a nutshell, federal employees -paid by our tax dollars and including White House staff - are pushing artists and entertainers to promote President Obama’s agenda. The big item is health care. The NEA funnelled our tax dollars to these artists and entertainers through grants. These artists and entertainers went on to do as they were told and promote health care, and other parts of Obama’s agenda.

So if you’re one of the millions of Americans who is vehemently opposed to Obama’s policies, know that YOUR tax dollars are being used to ram these policies down your throat. YOUR tax dollars are funding an attempt to shape the debate by using influential artists and entertainers to brain wash your fellow citizens. And the White House is directly in the center of this illegal activity. Do you believe President Obama isn’t aware of what his staff is up to?

Via Breitbart:

Big Hollywood: Buffy Wicks, Deputy Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement, clearly identifies this arts group as a pro-Obama collective and warns them of some “specific asks” that will be delivered later in the meeting.

Editor’s note: Big Hollywood contributer Patrick Courrielche sets up the additional clips.

Clip Two: Later in the call, “specific asks” were delivered by Yosi Sergant, then Communications Director of the National Endowment for the Arts. What were the “asks”? They were for this pro-Obama arts group to create art on several hotly debated political issues, including health care.

Clip three: Nell Abernathy of the Corporation for National and Community Service, a federal agency, and Michael Skolnik, the third party moderator, the meeting seemed designed to deflect any questionable conversations to the “third party”, while keeping the issue of health care top-of-mind with the precision of a well positioned product placement.

Clip Four: Michael Skolnik, the person asked by the NEA and the White House to help bring together this arts collective, defined the group and its goal in his opening statement. I think it is made pretty clear how this pro-Obama group would react to losing the healthcare debate if prodded to speak to that very issue.

Update: John Hinderaker has more at Power Line. He questions whether the NEA and/or the White House violated the law.
