News outlets rushed to cover recent charges out of Houston against the Center for Medical Progress. But will they cover the Centerâs latest video? Doubtful.
On Monday, the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) released a new undercover video in an effort to further expose the abortion industryâs role in harvesting aborted baby parts. The video captured National Abortion Federation (NAF) representatives calling money for tissue a âwin-winâ and expressed relief that CMP could rid them of aborted baby leftovers after trouble with other âdisposal services.â
MRC Culture watched both CMPâs shorter video and full footage video for this story.
Shorter video below.
According to CMP, NAF, a group of professional abortion providers, boasts âapproximately 50% Planned Parenthood membership.â Furthermore, both Planned Parenthood and StemExpress, said CMP, identified NAF as a âsignificant partner in the illicit sale of fetal tissue and organs.â
Mondayâs video came just days after a judge ordered a preliminary injunction against CMP at NAFâs request. According to CMP, NAF is still âseeking to permanently enjoinâ CMP âfrom releasing any footageâ from its annual meetings in 2014 and 2015.
In the video, a CMP investigator posing as representative of BioMax, a fake fetal tissue âprocurementâ company, introduced the topic of fetal tissue research to NAF representatives.
Sandy Fulkerson, a NAF training and education coordinator, was unfamiliar with such research, but declared she was âreally fascinatedâ by the topic.
Another, woman (presumably another CMP actor introduced as âBriannaâ) explained how fetal stem cells are used to âgrow like a nervous system or an immune system in â a human one â in a rat.â
Fulkerson tried to imagine what that meant.
âIâve seen like the rats with an ear on the â like the â growing the new tissue, but like an ear on their back and they can just shave it off, pop it on, right?â she laughed. âObviously not that simplistic butâ¦â
Full footage below.
After receiving a more thorough explanation, Fulkerson called the research âamazingâ and double-checked, â[S]o the idea is that if someone has a termination, they can donate the fetal tissue to this research?â
The first CMP actor responded by saying she wanted to meet medical directors of clinics to âjust let them know about the business.â
âWe have the researchers that want it,â she continued, âand so theyâre looking, looking, looking for tissue. And itâs just not available in the quantities ââ
Fulkerson immediately understood. âWe know somewhere where itâs available, right!â she encouraged.
She followed up by inviting the undercover CMP actors to a NAF conference to offer their services there.
âWe have a group purchasing program through our membership,â she said, and âwe have disposal, like bio-disposal companies, that work with us so it seems like this would be a really great option to be able to offer our members as well.â
The main CMP actor highlighted how clinics could profit from working with them through BioMax.
âWe do donate the fees that we get from our researchers, we give back to â a portion â give back to clinics as just a âthank youâ for letting us come in,â she said.
Fulkerson responded that the prospect âdefinitely sounds like something that some of our members would be really interested in.â
She went on to say there would be a special interest because abortion clinics run into problems trying to rid themselves of aborted baby leftovers:
[T]hereâs been a lot of â of problems with finding disposal services that will work with them because again because of the stigmatization. So some of like the big names in the industry wonât touch them because of what they do. And itâs like, please, whatever, like, youâre picking up disposal services for the exact same thing at the hospital down the street for miscarriage management or for elective termination, but because itâs a free-standing abortion clinic, theyâre â theyâre being discriminated against and stigmatizing.
âItâs one of those absurd, trickle-down vendor issues,â she added, noting that abortion providers can even have âstupid little vendor relationshipsâ with phone companies that veer away from serving them.
Fulkerson next introduced the CMP actors to NAF director of training and education, Jennifer Hart.
Again, Fulkerson stressed to Hart that BioMax would be a âgood fitâ because independent clinics have âissuesâ with âtissue disposal.â
The CMP actor reiterated for Hart: âthe fees that we charge â a portion of that â we give back to the clinics.â
Hart called the situation âa win-win.â
Fulkerson went so far as to suggest that (abortion) ârecovery roomsâ have signs in them reading ââDid you know? All of our, like, you know, all of our tissue remains are donated to science or are â you know, are used in research.â
âIf I was a patient I would love to see it,â she concluded. âLike, wow, thatâs really cool.â
The video also featured short clips (many taken from previous CMP videos) of Vicki Saporta, executive director and CEO of NAF, Deborah VanDerhei, national director of the Consortium of Abortion Providers (CAPS) at Planned Parenthood and Cate Dyer, CEO of StemExpress.
CMP Project Lead David Daleiden released the following statement along with the video:
From the very first moment the National Abortion Federation met purported baby parts traffickers in our investigative journalism study, NAF was eager for them to attend its meetings and pay its member clinics for fetal body parts.
Multiple Planned Parenthood executives and the leadership of StemExpress told our investigators many times that NAF was a key partner for fetal tissue harvesting. The fact is, the National Abortion Federation is a key accomplice in Planned Parenthood and StemExpressâ scheme to profit off baby body parts, and for this reason they are desperate to suppress the freedom of the citizen press and cover up the evidence of their illicit dealings.
Last week, Daleiden presented himself to the Harris County court in Houston, after a grand jury indictment on two charges: Tampering with a Government Record and the Prohibition of the Purchase and Sale of Human Organs.
âIâm very grateful for all the support from the public, especially from the people of Houston,â he said at a Houston press conference. âWeâre out here to send a strong message that Houstonâs children and their body parts are not for sale by Planned Parenthood.â
Daleidenâs next hearing in the Texas case is scheduled for March 28.
Evil people laugh at their evil deeds.
Demonic.
