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 use ‘trans-inclusive’ language -- for example saying ‘people’ instead of ‘women’ and telling staff that she believed talking about transgender issues would ‘isolate people in the Midwest.’” Not to mention that as a physician, Wen knows better than anyone: men can’t get pregnant.
Another sore spot between Wen and the board may have been her reluctance to make abortion hyper-political. “I believe that the best way to protect abortion care is to be clear that it is not a political issue -- but a health care one, and that we can expand support for reproductive rights by finding common ground with the large majority of Americans who understand reproductive health care as the fundamental health care that it is,” she said. Obviously, her idea didn’t play well in a group that dumped more than $30 million into 2016 campaigns like Hillary Clinton’s.

Q: What would we get if we threw all the books in the ocean?
A: A title wave!
I thought this had something to do with home ownership or mortgages.
The chickens are coming home to roost.
Let them suffer.
Hey, a serious reply. Rio must have gone off to the bathroom.
Now, with President Trump causing major upheaval of his own with the new Title X rules, the Planned Parenthood board has decided that it wants a pit bull – not a doctor – to wage its war on women (or, to be more “inclusive,” war on people). While it looks for a new leader – something the group is putting off until after the 2020 elections – it has plenty of other headaches to contend with, including the president’s family planning laws. Thanks to the Ninth Circuit Court, several of the group’s local facilities are about to feel a major squeeze on their bank accounts. As of Monday, HHS started enforcing the new ban on abortion referrals from offices that get family planning funds – a decision that could cost Wen’s former group as much as $60 million dollars
I’m over it now.
It really is amazing to watch the left go even further politically. Nothing dare gets in the way either or will suffer a quick ending.
Crabs from the House of Crustacean Lords hang out in Title Pools.
