An explosive new video from the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) contradicts past claims from Planned Parenthood that the corporation never participated in the sale of aborted baby body parts but merely donated them and was compensated for expenses. Featuring testimony from Planned Parenthood officials under oath in 2019, as well as documents from those officials’ admissions, the video shows these executives and directors admitting to actually selling body parts, which is illegal.
Numerous depositions are featured in the video, including from Tram Nguyen (Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast’s Senior Director of Abortion Access), Dr. Dorothy Furgerson (Chief Medical Officer of Planned Parenthood Mar Monte), and Dr. Deborah Nucatola, the former senior director of medical services for Planned Parenthood Federation of America, among others. More testimony and documents are available on the CMP website.
After CMP’s undercover videos were released, Planned Parenthood retaliated with a bogus lawsuit, while its political allies in California pressed charges against David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt, the journalists who exposed Planned Parenthood’s illegal behavior. Planned Parenthood publicly went on the attack, claiming the videos were doctored and heavily edited (an accusation that was disproven by forensic analyses) and claiming they never broke any laws regarding the trafficking of aborted body parts. But this newly released video shows otherwise.
Featured in the video are email contracts sent to Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast. While publicly, Planned Parenthood told the New York Times they turned the deal down, in video testimony of her deposition under oath, Tram Nguyen is seen admitting in that she actually intended to move forward with the financial arrangement.
This video also disputes the argument that money received was nothing more than reimbursement for costs sustained by Planned Parenthood. Testimony revealed that payment was only made to Planned Parenthood if StemExpress was able to obtain “usable” body parts from one of its abortion centers — meaning Planned Parenthood deceived the public when it claimed it only collected reimbursements for employees’ time and costs. While the law allows for reimbursements of specific costs when donating fetal organs, those reimbursements must meet specific guidelines; they must be fees associated with transportation, processing, and other such costs. Planned Parenthood did none of these things, yet they collected money when they provided StemExpress with marketable body parts.
During some of the featured testimony in the video, an attorney can be heard in the background repeatedly instructing her client not to answer when asked how much money Planned Parenthood may have received from selling the body parts of aborted children. Yet invoices showed some Planned Parenthood centers receiving upwards of $10,000 in a single month, lending credence to StemExpress’ advertised promises of “financial benefit” and “fiscal reward” for abortion facilities.
Other documents showed that top level executives at Planned Parenthood’s national headquarters were aware of the body parts sales. Deborah Nucatola, an abortionist herself, admitted under oath that she knew Planned Parenthood Los Angeles was receiving payments for body parts yet claimed she never bothered to ensure everything was taking place legally. Nucatola is the abortionist seen in CMP’s first video discussing over wine and salad how she illegally altered abortion procedures to better harvest body parts. Dr. Mary Gatter was also featured in the under-oath testimony, and was previously caught undercover haggling over prices for aborted body parts, infamously stating, “I want a Lamborghini.” In her deposition, Gatter admitted to setting up a business arrangement with the now-closed, for-profit fetal tissue harvesting firm Novogenix.
StemExpress and Advanced Bioscience Resources (ABR) are still in operation, and ABR is still working with Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest to obtain aborted body parts for researchers. And while Planned Parenthood officials admit to wrongdoing under oath, the journalists who uncovered their illegal behavior remain under investigation by authorities—allowing Planned Parenthood to continue its scheme with no repercussions.
In a press release, David Daleiden, project lead for CMP, called for action. “The time has come for federal consequences for Planned Parenthood,” he said. “Planned Parenthood lied to the public and to Congress, but now there is no longer any reasonable doubt that Planned Parenthood sold fetal body parts, commodifying living children in the womb and treating pregnant women like a cash crop. The U.S. Department of Justice must escalate the enforcement of laws against fetal trafficking to the highest level of priority.”
The left won’t care.
I wonder how many “moderate” Democrats know about this and how many can link these horrors to their “beloved” Democrat party? The Democrats politicians have been solidly behind Planned Parenthood for forty years but I am puzzled by the seeming acceptance by many middle of the road Democrats.
I remember when that happened.
What an evil organization.
Their fetus lampshades are very popular, but they are only available by special order and there is a waiting list. If you want to order one, contact the DNC.
If you have relatives or friends who are Democrat who defend their party’s position on abortion please let us know what they say.
The infusion of progressive action goals into clearly written laws which prohibit such goals does not negate the laws as a matter of politics. Arrest a whole bunch of people who obviously lied, committed tax fraud, committed perjury, and received bribes in a conspiracy to violate the law. Planned parenthood is clearly a RICO gang.
Does this have the potential to reverse the judgement against the video tape people?
Everything is a “BOMBSHELL” until it comes to INDICTMENT and PROSECUTION.
It’s known as the “Lamborghini Incentive Program” as she bragged.
And they will never get me to agree that they don’t encourage abortions. Someaone very close to me got pregnant and initially, she was over the moon with happiness.
But within a day or two, she wanted an abortion. She had only spoken with me,who loved the idea of her becoming a mommy), her boyfriend (who wanted an abortion and later married her) and PP.
OMG Now that is beyond cruel, greediness aside.
The spirit of Molech resides in Planned Parenthood and the Democrat party.
That's the best comment today. What do the nearest Dems say about this matter? In between slurs against President Trump?
Half of the voters are Democrats why do they not know what is going on?
I wonder if the marriage lasted?
Over a glass of wine and salad at an off site luncheon. That's why he got sued.
Monsters.
Germany in the 1940’s lives strong in American democrats. No horror is too great to limit their progressive state goals.
Ouch ! That’s the spirit centurion ! It would be so simple for our feckless Republican representation to go on the offensive against the lib’s and paint them with unrelenting abhorrent imagery. There is a limitless amount of material available to work with and present with a vicious cut. Alinsky’s rule about the power of ridicule....
