Back in 1970, the Nixon administration enacted the Title X Family Funding Program. As described on the HHS website, “For more than 40 years, Title X family planning clinics have played a critical role in ensuring access to a broad range of family planning and related preventive health services for millions of low-income or uninsured individuals.” For years, abortion providers were unable to access these funds, until President Clinton decided otherwise. Since then, abortion mills like Planned Parenthood have happily tapped into these funds to make sure that, utilizing some creative bookkeeping, women from low-income households have access to abortion...

Poor Leana Wen. She took Planned Parenthood’s propaganda a little too seriously. And now she’s out of a job. For the longest time, Planned Parenthood has insisted that it is a health care organization and that it only cares about abortion — supposedly a tiny share of its business — insofar as it is a function of health care. Whenever Republicans have threatened Planned Parenthood’s funding over abortion, the response was, Abortion? Don’t be silly. We are all about Pap tests and breast exams.

The news wasn’t just a shock to the country, it was a shock to Wen herself. “I just learned that the @PPFA Board ended my employment at a secret meeting,” she tweeted. “We were engaged in good faith negotiations about my departure based on philosophical differences over the direction and future of Planned Parenthood.” That “good faith” ended abruptly when the president of America’s abortion giant found out she was fired. One of those philosophical differences, sources say, is that Wen happens to believe women’s health care is for, well, women. “Two sources told BuzzFeed News that Wen refused to...

It was a great day for the pro-life cause on Tuesday as the board of the abortion group Planned Parenthood embarrassingly fired president and Dr. Leana Wen after only eight months on the job. Unfortunately, ABC’s World News Tonight and the CBS Evening News saw no reason to inform their viewers about Wen’s ouster as the organization charged with murdering unborn children has found itself in dire financial straits. In contrast, this was the second story covered on NBC Nightly News with a full, one-minute-and-41-second report from White House correspondent Kristen Welker. Anchor Lester Holt stated in the lead-in that...

After Tuesday’s CBS Evening News ignored the embarrassing leadership shake-up at Planned Parenthood, on Wednesday, CBS This Morning managed a minute of air time to discuss the abortion group’s president, Dr. Leana Wen, being fired by the organization’s board after just eight months at the helm. Liberal co-host and Democratic donor Gayle King was “disappointed” by the news. “Planned Parenthood president Dr. Leana Wen has been forced out of the organization after only eight months,” correspondent Vladimir Duthiers reported during the morning show’s What to Watch segment late in the 7:00 a.m. ET hour. He explained that Wen took to...

Planned Parenthood abruptly fired its CEO on Tuesday because she apparently did not push abortion politics aggressively enough. But new reports suggest there may be more to the story. Two anonymous Planned Parenthood informants accused former CEO Leana Wen of mismanaging the abortion chain and refusing to allow others to control what she said. One source told BuzzFeed News that Wen refused to use “trans-inclusive” language. The abortion chain apparently wanted her to say “people” can get pregnant and have abortions, not “women.” Wen reportedly resisted their speech demands, saying the transgender language would “isolate people in the Midwest.” “Oftentimes...

CHARLOTTE — A new mobile ultrasound unit was vandalized July 11 as it was parked near Planned Parenthood’s new location in Charlotte. The mobile ultrasound unit, operated by the Human Coalition and its Women’s Clinic of Charlotte, was parked overnight outside the Women’s Clinic, just a few blocks away from Planned Parenthood’s new abortion facility in uptown Charlotte. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic is moving its Charlotte Health Center from Albemarle Road to 700 South Torrence St., located in the historically black Cherry neighborhood. The 10,626-square-foot building will double the space Planned Parenthood has for its reproductive health services and education...

The Planned Parenthood abortion company has a new interim president. Alexis McGill Johnson replaces Leanna Wen, who Planned Parenthood fired today because she is not aggressively pro-abortion enough to take on President Donald Trump. Johnson is no stranger to the Planned Parenthood abortion company as she has been the president of the board of directors for many years. But if Leanna Wen was bad, Alexis McGill Johnson is even worse. Johnson believes that Christians can support abortions even though Christianity is entirely about a relationship with God through Jesus Christ that conquers Eternal death and brings forth eternal life. “We...

Planned Parenthood abortion business CEO Leanna Wen has been fired after just 10 months on the job. The abortion corporation wants a more aggressively pro-abortion activist as its leader as it heads into the crucial 2020 presidential election. According to the New York Times, the Planned Parenthood board engaged in “hours of negotiations”and ultimately canned Wen, citing the need for a “more aggressive political leader.” Alexis McGill Johnson has been named as interim president of its political arm Planned Parenthood Action Fund. “I am proud to step in to serve as acting president and facilitate a smooth leadership transition in...

The Trump Administration banned abortion referrals at taxpayer-funded family planning clinics on Monday. The new “Protect Life Rule” will be implemented immediately. Planned Parenthood and the state of California tried to block the new rules but a federal appeals court sided with the Trump administration in a decision last week. Mark Meadows tweeted out @RepMarkMeadows Great news: today the Trump administration is immediately beginning to implement President Trump's 'Protect Life Rule,' stopping taxpayer funding of the abortion industry—something widely supported by Americans. Promise kept from the President. 8:50 AM - 16 Jul 2019

Planned Parenthood Removes Leana Wen as President By Shane Goldmacher July 16, 2019 Planned Parenthood on Tuesday removed its president after less than a year in the job, seeking new leadership at a time when abortion rights have come under increasing attack from statehouses and Republicans in Washington. The move came after hours of negotiations Tuesday between the board of directors and the president, Leana Wen, according to two people familiar with the decision. Dr. Wen had been the first physician to lead the organization in decades. The people familiar with the move said there had been internal strife over...

A federal appeals court today ruled President Donald Trump can partially defund planned Parenthood while the abortion business’ lawsuit against his administration’s new rules moves forward. As LifeNews reported in March, the Trump administration finalized an administrative rule that would partially defund the Planned Parenthood abortion business and deprive it of as much as $60 million in taxpayer dollars. This action adds to President Trump’s record of defunding the Planned Parenthood abortion company. The abortion chain receives about $50 million to $60 million in Title X funds annually, but that could change now that the new rules are being implemented....

A June video shows the ACLU instructing California public school teachers on how to help children obtain abortions without parental consent. The video exposes involvement by the ACLU, Planned Parenthood and the California Board of Eduation. Progressive sex education programs teach children about oral sex, masturbation, role-playing and more.

February 21, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – Planned Parenthood CEO Leana Wen sat down with presidential daughter Chelsea Clinton for a piece published in Interview Magazine this week, casting the abortion giant as an imperiled defender of women and claiming those who end preborn lives are the ones truly deserving the “life” label. Perhaps the most controversial part of the interview was when the two ladies discussed the labels of the abortion debate. “I also want us to consider our choice of language when we define these movements. The pro-choice/pro-life dichotomy is problematic to me,” Wen said. Clinton agreed, saying she “refuse[s]...

...Leading up to the vote, national pro-life organization the Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List) conducted a poll that found 77 percent of Rhode Island voters oppose allowing abortion up until birth. According to the survey, 73 percent oppose late-term abortions, including 63 percent of Democrats, 77 percent of independents, and 89 percent of Republicans. The poll also found 80 percent of Rhode Island women voters are opposed to abortion up until birth as are 62 percent of self-described “pro-choice” voters. “It is extremely disappointing to see Rhode Island lawmakers cave to pressure from the abortion lobby to pass this...

The official who was previously tapped by former President Obama to lead the U.S. response to the Ebola crisis, slammed the White House physician’s recent memo summarizing President Trump’s second physical health exam in office. “No doctor can predict someone’s future health,” Ronald Klain, who also served as chief of staff to former Vice President Joe Biden, said in a tweet on Saturday morning. “This is a disgrace to an office with a great tradition of professionalism. Just another institution turned into a joke by a President determined to make anyone willing to submit an instrument of his lies,” he...

Gillibrand admitted to Martha Raddatz today on This Week, “We all knew,” Obama was not being honest when he told Americans they could keep their insurance. Raddatz: Do you feel misled by Obama? Gillibrand: He should have been more specific… Raddatz: So were you misled? http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2013/11/wow-ny-senator-admits-we-all-knew-obama-was-lying-about-o-care-video/ Gillibrand: No, we all knew. The whole point of the plan is to cover things people need.

There is nothing about ObamaCare that’s working. It took a pack of lies to sell ObamaCare – which passed in the Senate by a single vote. But the ultimate problem that dooms ObamaCare is cost — the sticker shock of the monthly premiums people are experiencing right now who have been thrown into the ObamaCare exchanges. According to a 49-state study by the Manhattan Institute , ObamaCare is causing an average increase in premiums for individuals of 41 percent. The primary reason this is happening is that the architects of ObamaCare confuse health insurance with health coverage. The purpose of...

News that an uninsured transgender woman in Colorado was denied a free mammogram has prompted two advocacy groups to petition the federal government for equality in screening. “That is irrational discrimination, plain and simple,” said Harper Jean Tobin, director of policy for the National Center for Transgender Equality. “Breast-cancer screenings save lives and should be available to all women, period,” added Shane Snowdon, director of the Human Rights Campaign’s health and aging program. President Obama’s 2010 Affordable Care Act prohibits discrimination “on the basis of sex, including on the basis of gender identity or sex stereotyping,” they wrote Friday in...
