EXCLUSIVE: Thirty-seven Planned Parenthood affiliates applied for and received a total of $80 million in loans from the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight" has learned -- and now the federal government wants the money back, saying the affiliates should have known they weren't eligible for the coronavirus stimulus payouts.

The Small Business Association (SBA) is reaching out to each involved Planned Parenthood affiliate explaining that affiliates of larger organizations with more than 500 employees aren't eligible for PPP distributions, Fox News is told. The Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PFFA) alone has had more than 600 employees.

A Planned Parenthood affiliate in Metropolitan Washington (PPMW), for example, will receive a letter stating that although self-certified that it was eligible for a $1,328,000 PPP loan in accordance with the SBA's affiliation rules, it will need to return the money.

The largest single government loan was a $7.5 million allotment to the Planned Parenthood of Orange and San Bernardino Counties in California. One Planned Parenthood affiliate received a loan but declined it.

Telling abortion mills to give it back. Irony?

and now the federal government wants the money back, saying the affiliates should have known they weren't eligible for the coronavirus stimulus payouts.

Uh, I don't think that's the real problem here.

As Captain Augustus McCray said,

"A man that won't cheat for a poke, don't want one bad enough".

The derps can ask for the money, against the rules, all they want. That's what the snake does. Cause its a snake.

The real problem lies with she who took the snake in. Who and why did the money get given to them in the first place. Surely the young woman knew the rules. She invented them.

There is some rotten derpage at foot here.

This is what you get when you crack open the money hydrant on a hot summer day in the ghetto.

Water be goin' ever damn place.

All those small businesses shut out and have to wait again for more stimulus money to be voted in. Bet this was a plan to use it up before it got to the people who need it. Another Marxist arm of the DNC

I would immediately fire whoever approved the loan. Only someone dishonest or incompetent would consider PP to be a small business. In either case the person shouldn’t be anywhere near money.

Marco Rubio tweeted out that they will need to get the money back. Another guy, who’s actually an acquaintance of mine said not to bother, just tell Murder Inc. that the loan will not be forgiven and then foreclose on them when they don’t pay it back

The loans were processed through local banks where they had a business account. It went through the SBA loan system.

There is a robust system in place for disciplinary action.
