Two companies in California that procured and sold aborted baby body parts that they bought from abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, reached a $7.8 million settlement after they were caught illegally profiting off of these body parts. The investigation and fines happened because of the undercover videos from the Center for Medical Progress, which shook the nation in the summer of 2015.
Now, two years after those videos and nearly a year after committees in both houses of Congress recommended Planned Parenthood and their business partners for criminal investigation, the FBI has confirmed they are investigating the abortion giant.
Its about time.
The liberal press has worked diligently to discredit the CMP videos, always noting in stories that the videos have been proven to have been fabricated. However, two forensic analyses have shown the videos to be true.
But Planned Parenthood and their massive public relations campaign forge ahead with their deception, whether it be that they make no profit off of the sale of tissue of aborted babies or that they do mammograms or that they do prenatal care for millions of women.
One look at their annual report proves that Planned Parenthood is all about abortion. Forget prenatal care, forget cancer screenings, forget pap tests.
Cecile Richards, the president of Planned Parenthood, assumed her position in 2006. Since that time, breast cancer screenings decreased by 64%, pap tests went down 72%, and prenatal care has nearly become extinct, dropping 73%.
In Cecile Richards world, this is a win. Do women lose out? Sure, but that doesnt matter.
A couple years after Mrs. Richards took over Planned Parenthood, she told the New York Times We aim to be the largest kick-butt political organization. This is not surprising. She has zero healthcare experience. Her experience lies in the political world and that is exactly the direction she wanted to take Planned Parenthood. She wanted to take the nations largest abortion provider and turn them into the nations largest lobbying group for womens health, aka abortion rights.
Yet, Cecile Richards has frequently stated that womens health is not a political issue. Its not but she made it one. She made it a big one.
Oh, and Planned Parenthood also gets half a billion dollars a year in taxpayer dollars. And Mrs. Richards salary has doubled since she started, earning nearly one million dollars a year to run her non-profit.
Planned Parenthood is now under criminal investigation for their part in the illegal trafficking of human baby body parts, something that former abortion workers have noted they have seen or participated in themselves. While the abortion giant is trying to make money off of deceiving women, fudging paperwork, and tearing apart unborn babies, women who want actual medical services are suffering. They are told they can go to Planned Parenthood for care other than abortion, taking time off work, paying what they cannot afford, and trusting a so-called womens health provider.
There are other options for women and their families that far outnumber Planned Parenthood, that do more services than Planned Parenthood, that dont deceive their patients about abortion, and that are less expensive.
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) provided 521,568 mammograms in 2015. Planned Parenthood did zero. FQHCs provided 1.8 million pap tests in 2015; Planned Parenthood provided less than 300,000.
In 2015, community health centers provided prenatal services to 552,150 individual patients; Planned Parenthood said they provided 9,149 prenatal services. Community health centers delivered 292,286 babies alive in 2015; Planned Parenthood aborted 325,548 unborn babies.
While Cecile Richards has been on television promoting Planned Parenthood and speaking to national audiences with the Democratic nominee for president of the United States, actual medical services at her organization have plunged since she took over in 2006.
The only thing Planned Parenthood is dedicated to is making money by doing abortions. Thats it. They could care less about their patients, their workers, or anything else. I know because I worked there for eight years, eventually running a clinic in Texas. Now I help abortion workers get out of the industry - 400 so far - and their stories are eerily similar to mine - they had abortion quotas, they worked in dirty clinics, they saw ultrasound numbers being fudged, and they saw that the abortion industry is one, huge lie.
Abby Johnson leads the ministry And Then There Were None and is the author of "Unplanned."
I eagerly await the day when people no longer say ‘could care less’ when they really mean ‘couldn’t care less’...
They care about money and getting their abortion quotas met.
How much less could they care?
Remember the "kind-hearted and compassionate"
Clintons (he was then-President) assured us abortion would be
"safe, legal and rare?"
============================================
Oops. The kindly Clintons plumb "forgot" to mention that they
themselves opened the gates so that Planned Parenthood could traffic
(and profit) in baby body parts.
(EXCERPT--WND.COM). Then-Pres Clinton is credited w/ opening up the market in fetal body parts. Since Clinton signed the National Institutes of Health Revitalization Act of 1993, fetal-tissue research has expanded into a federally subsidized multi-million dollar industry of selling human spare parts salvaged from abortions.
For example, the NIH budgeted $21 million in fiscal year 1999 for grants and awards for fetal tissue research. At the University of Washington, the NIH subsidizes the central laboratory for human embryology.
According to a lab notice obtained by WorldNetDaily, it can supply tissue from normal or abnormal embryos and fetuses of desired gestational ages between 40 days to term. Specimens are obtained within minutes of passage, and tissues are aseptically identified, staged, and immediately processed according to the requirements of individual investigators. The notice is signed by Alan G. Fantel of the department of pediatrics.
At the time, two organizations that profited from this growth industry were (the now defunct) Opening Lines, a business formerly located in West Frankfort, Illinois...... and Anatomic Gift Foundation, headquartered in Laurel, Maryland.
Opening Lines gives credit to President Clinton for opening up the lucrative business in fetal tissue trade.
According to Opening Lines, on January 22, 1993, Clinton lifted the moratorium on federal funding. This action created a great demand for fetal tissue and has made possible the development of treatments for individuals afflicted with serious diseases and disorders, says the sales brochure.
Both companies served as wholesalers for the marketing of baby body parts to researchers, drug companies, hospitals and universities. These groups harvest the baby parts from abortion clinics and ship them to their customers.
Opening Lines provides fetal tissue researchers with a fee for service schedule, which gives prices for each body part. For example, Opening Lines charged:
<><> $150 for a spinal column;
<><> $400 for an intact embryonic cadaver;
<><>$75 for 8-week-old baby's eyeballs (40% discount for a single eye);
<><>$150 for two arms or legs; and,
<><> $100 for the skin of a 12-week-old baby.
COULDN’T.
It’s “COULDN’T”.
I really wish people would get the grammar correct if theyre xpect to be taken seriously. The expression is couldnt care less, as in the concern is so small it couldnt be any less. To say PP could care less implies they care at all.
....Couldn’t....
This never would have been revealed / news if Hitlery was elected. This is more of the SWAMP revealed by the TRUMP EFFECT.
It’s amazing how that error continues to pop up.
Appears there are no editors anymore.
