Medical researchers are growing human organs in mice by implanting dead human baby organs into rodents, a practice that stands to gain greater scrutiny in light of undercover videos exposing what appears to be Planned Parenthood affiliates selling aborted baby parts to medical procurement companies like StemExpress.
In a fourth video released from the Center for Medical Progress (CMP), Planned Parenthood personnel can be seen sifting through aborted baby parts allegedly to show what parts can be salvaged and sold.
These mice or rats are created by removing a human organ such as a kidney from a dead human baby and implanting it into a mouse or rat for the purpose of medical research.
As reported in Live Science, Duke University medical student Eugene Gu co-authored a study released in January in which he said, “Our long-term goal is to grow human organs in animals, to end the human donor shortage.” According to the report, Gu is also founder and CEO of Redwood, California biotech company Ganogen, Inc.
“In the new study, Gu and his colleagues obtained human fetal kidneys from StemExpress, a Placerville, California-based company that supplies researchers with tissue from deceased adults and fetuses,” reported Live Science in January. Gu contends that the mothers consented to donation, and scientists were separated from the “donation process.” (Read more from “Report: Aborted Baby Parts Being Used to Grow Human Organs in Rodents” HERE)

Not even 24 hours after the Democrats voted nearly lockstep to keep on pouring $500 million of taxpayer money yearly into Planned Parenthood’s baby-organ-trafficking business, the fifth and most devastating undercover video appeared from the heroic truthtellers of the Center for Medical Progress — documenting yet again with clear, continuous video the fact that Planned Parenthood evades and violates federal law.
Planned Parenthood takes orders for particular pieces of unborn babies (brains, eyeballs, livers and lungs) of particular ages (as late as 22 weeks, the same age as many premature infants now thriving in hospital ICU wards) and even for intact corpses of otherwise viable unborn babies. Then it kills the unborn babies to order, in particular ways that suit the needs of organ businesses, and delivers them for pre-arranged prices, to enhance its “revenue stream.”
The fifth video could not be more timely.
Planned Parenthood and its baby-parts customers are scrambling like “plumbers” in the Nixon White House to staunch the flow of information, venue-shopping for judges with close enough ties to President Obama to issue corrupt gag orders that hide the truth from the public and even lawmakers. Leading Democrats are trumpeting their firm support for Planned Parenthood as a crucial provider of “women’s health care.” They know better than anyone what Big Democratic Money demands on the abortion issue: unconditional fealty.
That’s what Sen. Robert Casey, Jr., of Pennsylvania offered them when he voted to keep funding Planned Parenthood, betraying the voters who’d believed he was really pro-life and mocking his father’s memory. We remember when faithful Catholic Robert Casey, Sr., a beloved senator from a key swing state, was frozen out of speaking at the Democratic Convention in 1992 because of his pro-life convictions. Appalled at this quashing of free political debate, the secular pro-life atheist and civil liberties leftist Nat Henthoff of The Village Voice arranged for Casey to give the same address at a shrine of free speech, New York’s Cooper Union, where Abraham Lincoln delivered a famous anti-slavery address in 1859.
One of us showed up for Casey’s speech, but again it was censored. Henthoff and Casey tried again and again to speak, for more than an hour, but pro-abortion hecklers shouted, catcalled, chanted and finally wore those good men down. Henthoff unplugged the mike and, with Casey, shuffled offstage, their eyes cast down at the floor.
That’s how abortion stays legal in America: through a reign of political thuggery, silence, denial and lies. Our country now suffers like Narnia under the Witch: It is always winter, never Christmas, for a million babies each year who fall into Herod’s clutches.
But no winter lasts forever. Silence was meant to be broken, even the silence of the grave — the nameless, faceless shambles of medical waste dumpsters where dismembered Americans are dumped like spoiled cold cuts, once their value has been extracted and transferred to medical labs.
The tomb of Jesus was equally unmarked and obscure. But it was explosive enough that Pilate and the Sadducees had to garrison it with guards, in the hope of corking the Truth via naked force. That gag order proved futile, and so will Planned Parenthood’s. As Shakespeare wrote, “Truth will out.”
The last time America was smeared, from head to toe, by a profound moral evil, that sin too was carefully maintained by silence and lies. Throughout the slave-owning South, it was illegal even to emulate George Washington and voluntarily free your slaves. And those who printed anti-slavery books and newspapers could go to prison, and have their presses seized by the state, while abolitionists were hunted, beaten and killed.
Hundreds of scribbling journalists and authors churned out idyllic pictures of the master/slave relationship, comparing it to parenthood, to mentorship, to the storied courts of feudal Europe. Slave state capitols like the one in Baton Rouge were built like Camelot castles, to bolster the fantasy that the slave-owning South was the honest heir of the Middle Ages, and that enslaved American blacks were like the subjects of King Richard the Lionheart.
Similarly today, the Democrats and their enablers sell a happy-clappy lie — that Planned Parenthood is a noble organization devoted to promoting women’s health care among the poor. They accept awards named for Margaret Sanger, whose racist views and ties to Nazi eugenics are a matter of clear historical record but which is also carefully whitewashed. They plant their clinics in ghettos and abort 94 percent of the babies they encounter, then pretend that they serve the poor and honor African-Americans. Now we know that they harvest the children of the poor and cannibalize them for parts, like stolen cars in a chop-shop.
But the pretense continues. The slogans keep getting repeated, with almost robotic discipline: Keep talking about the mammograms — it doesn’t matter that PP doesn’t offer them. Keep using words like “health,” “choice” and even “adoption.” Who cares if PP’s ratio of abortion to adoption is 117 to 1? Just stay with the spin, and wait the opposition out. The money will keep on coming.
Planned Parenthood’s Cabin
It doesn’t always take an army to shatter an empire built on lies. Sometimes all it needs is a single, bold truthteller who finds an honest audience. When Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote Uncle Tom’s Cabin, she could not really have dreamed what kind of impact her novel would have. She was simply an author with an agenda: to tell the truth. She knew that the folksy paternalism of pro-slavery Southern rhetoric masked a rat’s nest of inhuman truths: That black women were routinely raped, with no legal recourse. That black men were flogged, sometimes to death, with no one punished for the brutality. That even well-meaning slave-owners, when their gambling debts needed paying, routinely had black children ripped out of their mothers’ arms and sold “down the river” to perish in the brutal cane-fields of Louisiana, or be prostituted to sate the lusts of “honorable” Southern gentlemen. She knew this, and wrote it, in words of fire that changed a nation.
Southern states outlawed her book. They believed in gag orders, too. But it was too late, and the institution of slavery sat on death row, counting its days.
Don’t think that in raising slavery and Stowe that I am calling for civil war in America. A civil war is in fact already underway. The most basic unit of community we could possibly imagine is that irreducible dyad of a pregnant mother and child. It is the root of human life, the most intimate possible bond. When a woman is pressed to destroy that, it is like goading her to suicide. But our Culture of Death has invaded that sacred, intimate realm, sowing enmity and violence between mother and child.
If our country is to enjoy any kind of lasting civil order, we can’t allow cynical profiteers of human suffering like Planned Parenthood to foster this discord and violence, to pile up millions of dollars by selling their victims. Like slaves. (Re-posted with permission from the author, “Video 5: Planned Parenthood’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin”, originally appeared HERE)
What was the purpose of conducting a vote to defund Planned Parenthood on a standalone bill immediately after blocking amendments to do just that on a “must-pass” bill? What is the purpose of voting to block taxpayer funding for abortions and then continuing to fund them in the Continuing Resolution next month – as Republicans have done 30 times before?
Evidently, the only purpose of this vote was to give Sens. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Joe Donnelly (D-IN) a loincloth in order to cover their flaws on consequential votes. You read that right. The only outcome of this vote was to help Democrats maintain two Senate seats that Republicans must own in the long-run in order to command a secure majority in the upper chamber.
Knowing full well that the bill to defund Planned Parenthood would never secure 60 votes to proceed with debate, Manchin and Donnelly embraced the robust opportunity to shore up their pro-life bonafides in red states. Unlike wayward Republicans, red state Democrats know how to dissent from their party without doing damage – they only vote with their constituents when the outcome will never hurt their party bosses. (Editor’s note: Lisa Murkowski was also a beneficiary of this “show vote”; despite her radical pro-abortion history, she too voted for cloture. Murkowski stands for reelection in 2016).
Joe Manchin is very proud to proclaim himself a pro-life Democrat, yet on April 14, 2011, he failed is first test on the life issue as an elected senator. He voted against the enrollment correction (H.Con.Res. 36) that would have made changes to the final FY2011 budget bill to prevent funding for Planned Parenthood (Roll Call No. 60). When it really mattered and would have affected the budget, he voted to give taxpayer funds to this barbaric abortionist group.
Then, on July 16, 2014, he voted to proceed with a Democrat bill overturning the Supreme Court’s “Hobby Lobby” decision, which protected the religious liberty of employers. This bill would have forced private employers to cover abortion-inducing drugs in any compensation package for employees. Needless to say, Donnelly voted with the Left as well.
As such, this entire charade was a show vote within a show vote for these two Democrats.
Aside from the fact that Republicans have shunned the opportunity to stand for life on consequential legislative vehicles, they also declined to fight for life even on the one standalone bill that could have made it to Obama’s desk. Earlier this year, they had an opportunity to nullify a law passed by the D.C. City Council requiring all district employers to cover abortifacients in their employee benefit packages. The procedures for passing such a resolution of disapproval are privileged and not subject to a filibuster. Yet, McConnell refused to schedule a committee markup on the resolution.
In many ways this vote was emblematic of what is wrong with the modern-day Republican Party. They stand for all of the right things except for when it actually matters and when they could actually affect the outcome. This lesson has become all too painful on numerous occasions since the midterm elections. But if they have no intention to fight for us in a meaningful way, do they have to go so far as to help red state Democrats maintain their seats in the Senate?

A pro-life, medical ethics group has released the fifth video in its ongoing undercover series that allegedly shows Planned Parenthood doctors and staffers discussing the sale of aborted fetal body parts.
The latest footage, which was captured on April 9, 2015, features Melissa Farrell, director of research for Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast in Houston, Texas, who proclaims that her organization has been “doing research for many, many years.”
Farrell also allegedly tells two actors posing as tissue buyers that Planned Parenthood can “get creative about when and where, and under what conditions can we interject something that is specific to the tissue procurement needs.”
At one point, the buyers speak with her about “financial gain” over a meal, and at another point they are seen with medical staff observing fetal remains in a pathology lab — an incredibly graphic scene that is reminiscent of what unfolded at a different clinic in the fourth video.
“This patient was at, like, 18 weeks, I think,” one medical staffer says, while sifting through fetal remains. (Read more from “Fifth Undercover Planned Parenthood Video Released: ‘This Patient Was Like 18 Weeks'” HERE)

By Ben Johnson. Until the eve of his presidential campaign, Jeb Bush was director of a philanthropy that gave tens of millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood and financed its advocacy of “unrestricted access to abortion” around the world. The charity also approved money to global abortion providers while he sat on its board.
In 2010, Jeb was named one of the founding directors of the Bloomberg Family Foundation, established as a tax-exempt foundation to advance the vision of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. He resigned from the board at the end of 2014 to prepare his presidential campaign.
While a Bush spokesman has responded to concerns by saying that Bush would not have voted on every initiative of the foundation, a pro-life leader told LifeSiteNews it “stretches credibility” that Bush was unaware of the foundation’s pro-abortion work, given the centrality of such work to the foundation’s mission, and its scope . . .
$50 million to ‘reproductive health’ and Planned Parenthood
In March of 2014, the Bloomberg Philanthropies announced a $50 million undertaking to expand “reproductive health,” including lobbying foreign nations to loosen restrictions on abortion. (Read more from “Jeb Bush Was Director of Philanthropy That Gave Tens of Millions to Planned Parenthood” HERE)
Hillary Clinton Attacks Jeb Bush on ‘Right to Rise’
By Laura Meckler. Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton sharply attacked one of the top Republicans in the presidential race, saying Jeb Bush’s “Right to Rise” slogan is empty given his policy positions.
“I don’t think you can credibly say that everybody has a ‘right to rise’ and then say you’re for phasing out Medicare or for repealing Obamacare,” she said Friday morning. “People can’t rise if they can’t afford health care. They can’t rise if the minimum wage is too low to live on.”
Her remarks came at a conference for the National Urban League, a group that advocates on behalf of African-Americans, shortly before Mr. Bush addressed the same audience. Mrs. Clinton enjoys strong support from African-American voters, but Mr. Bush is working to expand his support among minorities and to put himself forward as ready to broaden the Republican Party’s tent.
“I’m working for every vote,” Mr. Bush told the group. He didn’t reply to Mrs. Clinton’s critique, but a spokeswoman called her comments “more false, cheap political shots” meant to distract from Mrs. Clinton’s lack of accomplishments.
Mrs. Clinton and two other Democrats who addressed the group focused heavily on a string of deaths of black people at the hands of police or in police custody and on economic inequality. Mr. Bush didn’t mention the deaths or the “black lives matter” movement that activists have embraced, instead focusing on his record in Florida on expanding the economy and improving public schools.

By Steve Watson. The leader of the Center for Medical Progress (CMP), the organization exposing Planned Parenthood, told CNN “New Day” this morning that a biomedical company is trying to silence CMP because they are “very scared” of footage coming out that will prove babies were born alive before being “aborted” and having tissue and organs harvested.
California based StemExpress, a company closely allied with Planned Parenthood that provides fetal tissue to researchers, has managed to convince a Superior Court judge to issue a temporary restraining order against CMP.
The order bars the undercover journalists from releasing any more footage of StemExpress officials.
David Daleiden explained why he believes StemExpress is taking such hefty action:
Investigator Says Stemxpress Bought Intact Intact Dead Babies From Planned Parenthood
By Austin Ruse. Undercover investigator David Daleiden tells CNN the reason StemExpress is trying to suppress the video he took of its CEO on May 22 is because the company doesn’t want anyone to know it bought whole intact dead babies from Planned Parenthood.
Daleiden said on CNN, “In a meeting with their top leadership, they admitted that they sometimes get fully intact fetuses shipped to their laboratory from the abortion clinics they work with, and that could be prima facie evidence of born alive infants. And so that’s why they’re trying to suppress that videotape and they’re very scared of it.”
On May 22, Daleiden and his team had lunch with StemExpress CEO Cate Dyer and other senior personnel from the company that is the main buyer of freshly killed baby parts from Planned Parenthood. As the Center for Medical Progress has released videos, four so far, it is certain that anyone who met with Daleiden, who was posing as CEO of a fictitious company called BioMax, would become worried about what they might have said. Apparently StemExpress talked about things that may shock America and any future stockholders of the as-yet privately held company. (Read more from this story HERE)

The fourth and most horrifying video has appeared exposing Planned Parenthood and its profiteering off of the bodies of unborn children it kills. In the most appalling moment in recent American history, we can now see for ourselves as abortionists pull out the corpse of a newly killed child and announce, “It’s another boy.” Then they start talking prices.
Instead of forthrightly answering the profound moral questions these videos are raising, the billion-dollar organization is using its army of lawyers to try to abort the truth. According to Fox News, a Los Angeles court has imposed a restraining order on the Center for Medical Progress, preventing it from releasing any videos exposing StemExpress, one of Planned Parenthood’s most enthusiastic customers for unborn baby parts. It’s unclear if this legal gag order will be allowed to stand and dry up the stream of reporting at its source. Indeed, it wouldn’t be surprising if the courageous reporters at the Center for Medical Progress flouted it, knowing that the whole pro-life movement and leading presidential contenders would back them up.
The Bill Cosby Playbook
It hurts to lose a hero. When a person or organization has served for most of our lives as an icon of something good and important, we resist any suggestion that things might not be quite what they’ve seemed, that something is rotten in Denmark.
At first, we simply ignore the news, assuming that idle gossip or spiteful rumors are what’s at work. We might write off the first few reports as the work of “haters,” resentful rivals or fortune hunters. The icon’s defenders will round up other celebrities and leaders whom we trust to go on the record dismissing the allegations. Next, the attempt is made to kill the messenger, to discredit any accusers as venal, sleazy or extremist. Best of all is if the icon’s lawyers can find some compliant judge to issue a “gag” order and strangle the flow of information.
Given the public’s short attention span this tactic might prove effective. If we have really strong reasons for wanting to go on trusting the icon, then we will be relieved that the stories have stopped leaking out and assume that there was really no truth behind them.
This was the playbook that Bill Cosby and his damage control team were using, and it almost worked. Had there been a little less evidence and had his accusers been less courageous, his reputation might have survived. Best of all, from his perspective, would be if he could have found a judge willing to silence the women accusing him — to tie up in costly legal proceedings their right to tell their own stories.
Planned Parenthood is using the exact playbook in its attempts to spin, distort and silence the evidence collected through three years of in-depth, undercover reporting by the Center for Medical Progress. First, Planned Parenthood issued blank denials and claimed the three videos released so far had been deceptively edited: Move along, there’s nothing to see here. But the CMP calmly replied that it had already posted the raw, unedited footage online for journalists to check themselves.
Then, Planned Parenthood called on its closest allies, President Obama and candidate Clinton, who vouched for the group’s good will and moral probity. Who were these pro-life “nobodies,” compared to the president of the United States and the presumptive Democratic nominee? But courageous Republican lawmakers such as Ted Cruz and Rand Paul stepped forward in response, along with other candidates such as Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina, dozens of Republican congressmen, and at least one Democratic politician, Ohio state representative Bill Patmon.
Then, Planned Parenthood tried to kill the messenger, falsely tying the Center for Medical Progress to assorted reckless cranks at the outermost fringes of the pro-life movement. (Every movement has such hangers-on; think of the brick-throwing anarchists who showed up at Occupy Wall Street.)
None of it worked. Now, Planned Parenthood is counting on sheer legal muscle — grabbing the coercive power of the state and using it to gag journalists and silence opposition. Beyond its efforts in court, Planned Parenthood’s crisis-management PR flacks have been sending ominous memos to TV producers warning them not to air further videos and implying that they might face legal action. These are not the actions of an innocent organization. They are the desperate flailing of a criminal caught in the act, yanking at every string of power still within reach.
And it all will probably backfire. However pro-choice they might be, most journalists don’t take kindly to censorship and threats. Neither do most Americans, who will start asking of Planned Parenthood, as they did of Bill Cosby: What are they trying to hide? We knew Bill Cosby was finished when his longtime defender Whoopi Goldberg abandoned him. Now pro-choice feminist icon Camille Paglia is criticizing the mainstream media for failing to cover the story about the Planned Parenthood videos. The giant abortuarium is nearing its “Bill Cosby moment.”
We Don’t Want to Believe It; We Don’t Want to Know
Remember how cool and reassuring Bill Cosby always was? Here was a man who grew up in the depths of a bigoted America. He would have been justified in taking refuge in righteous black anger — which the great comedian, Paul Mooney, has made a career out of channeling. But Bill Cosby rose above it. He modeled the character virtues required for success, and preached those virtues to young people who needed them. Remember how he used to rebuke gangster rappers for their violence and misogyny?
Bill Cosby represented for many of us the fruition of Martin Luther King’s dream that black people would attain the American vision of freedom that had been for so long denied them. That’s why we didn’t want to believe that he was drugging and exploiting women sexually, using the kind of force and fraud that our country had employed on his ancestors. When he fought to silence his accusers and quash the truth, we were silently rooting for him. We didn’t want it to be true. We had spent hundreds of hours watching Mr. Huxtable on TV being a model husband and father and that was the person we loved. He was good and admirable, and we wanted to believe in him.
Many of us also wanted to believe in Planned Parenthood. Americans have been barraged for decades with happy-clappy messages about the organization serving as a heroic apostolate on the front lines in America’s poorest neighborhoods, guaranteeing good health and sexual freedom to our nation’s neediest women. These messages hid the organization’s racist origins and airbrushed its founder, Margaret Sanger, and her ties to Nazi eugenics — remaking her as an icon of cheerful, free modern womanhood.
The Center for Medical Progress has shattered this fantasy, and shown us the cost of Margaret Sanger’s dream: It is quantified in prices for pieces of broken children. No judge, no PR flack, no government hack can now contain this story. The truth is running free.

The conscience of much of our country is shocked in the wake of new undercover videos showing high-ranking Planned Parenthood officials discussing how the nation’s largest abortion provider goes about harvesting organs from the babies it aborts. More videos will be released over the next few weeks, but the first one shows a Planned Parenthood official hammering out the price of each organ — hearts, lungs, livers — to undercover reporters posing as buyers looking to use the organs for scientific research.
Planned Parenthood calls these organs “tissue donations” and claims to make no money off the deals. That said, one Planned Parenthood official — in the second video — is shown haggling over prices and even pushing a potential buyer to make the first offer so as to keep the upper hand in the negotiation process.
The first video shows a top Planned Parenthood leader dining at a restaurant, wine in hand, as she casually eats salad and discusses how best to abort a baby without “crushing” valuable internal organs that might be “donated” for a price of $30 to $100 each.
While most traditional news outlets are downplaying the significance of the footage, it has taken social media by storm, inspiring a push for national, state and local investigations into Planned Parenthood and calls to strip the organization of its taxpayer-funded grants and contracts.
Planned Parenthood’s national president Cecile Richards has released several responses to the videos, as have local affiliates, including Planned Parenthood of the Great Northwest that runs abortion facilities in Alaska.
Most striking about these responses is that they make no attempt to address the shocking moral concerns raised in the videos, namely that a company kills unborn babies, places a price on their body parts and then extracts them for scientific research. Rather than address these stark revelations, Richards simply attacks the messenger as releasing “deceptive, dishonest videos,” which she claims are “heavily edited.” She urges supporters to help fight “dangerous misinformation and lies from extremists” who wish to defund Planned Parenthood, a company that enjoyed $540 million from taxpayer-funded grants in 2013.
The problem with Planned Parenthood’s responses is that they are plainly false, even to many who approve of abortion.
The videos don’t lie. They are released in both shorter, eight to nine minute clips, as well as in full length, unedited versions. Additionally, the videos are accompanied by full transcripts. Any claims that they are “heavily edited” fall flat in light of this extensive effort for full transparency.
So we are left with hard facts and a decision to make. Do we as a nation, as Alaskans, as local towns and communities across our state want our public money to go toward funding a company which commits acts so grisly they are difficult even to speak of?
Planned Parenthood points out that it provides breast exams, cancer screenings and sex-education, and that without taking in millions in federal, state and local funds at-risk women will be left in the lurch with nowhere to turn for these services. This, too, is misleading. There are many medical providers who offer these other services. We should demand that tax dollars go to organizations that do not sear the conscience by killing unborn human beings and harvesting their organs for science.
As Alaskans we can visit, write, call and email our national, state and local representatives, asking that they prohibit Planned Parenthood from contracting with our local schools, community service outreaches and government-run health programs. We have options when it comes to legitimate health care. Planned Parenthood is not one them.

Photo Credit: CNS News White House Spokesperson Josh Earnest says he suspects somebody in the Obama Administration has seen a series of videos on Planned Parenthood’s role in harvesting the organs of babies, but the administration is basing its position that the videos are edited unfairly on the comments of Planned Parenthood and “the high ethical standard they live up to.”
During a White House press briefing Thursday Earnest was asked if anyone at the White House has watched the series of videos about Planned Parenthood . . .
“Where are you getting your information that the fact that it’s fraudulent, or the fact that they’re distorted and edited unfairly?” a reporter asked.
“Based on the public comments of Planned Parenthood who has indicated that the views that are represented in the video are entirely inconsistent with that organizations policies and with the high ethical standard they live up to.” (Read more from “White House Declares Support for Planned Parenthood Due to Their ‘High Ethical Standard'” HERE)

In the fourth undercover video by the Center for Medical Progress exposing Planned Parenthood’s baby body bazaar, there are at least seven statements of guilt by one of their Colorado abortionists, Dr. Savita Ginde. That’s right, not just a couple of statements alluding to illegal activity, but seven, often hiding in cluttered and broken syntax. The first statement is so horrific you can’t believe you just heard it.
Here they are:
1) While discussing the procuring of fetuses, Dr. Ginde says, “Sometimes, if we get, if someone delivers before we are able to see them for a procedure then we are intact.” Then she says they don’t try for that, implying that the procedure is bad. It is clear she is referring to infants born alive, and after the baby is born alive, Planned Parenthood apparently still kills it, which at that point would be murder under the law.
2) Contrary to Planned Parenthood’s defense that it is merely selling fetal body parts at cost — not for profit, which is illegal — Dr. Ginde admits she likes a pricing scheme that breaks it down per specimen because she can make more money. “I think the per item thing works,” she observes, “since you can see how much you can get out of it.”
3) Dr. Ginde seems to admit Planned Parenthood is breaking the law, by warning the potential buyers they’re likely to get caught in a state less tolerant of the illegal activity: “Because if you have someone in a really anti state that’s going to be doing this for you, they’re probably going to get caught.”
4) Dr. Ginde discusses the need for the various Planned Parenthood locations to keep their lies straight, which is also collusion: “So if anyone who gets called out or runs with it, that we’re all like, ‘Oh, I didn’t know you were doing this, oh, I’m doing this too.’ We have to be coordinated with each other.” Buyer: “To keep the stories straight.” Dr. Ginde: “Yeah.” She elaborates: “Well and to make sure that we’re all saying the same thing. And that the CEOs are all saying the same thing.”
5) At one point Dr. Ginde drops into pretending that Planned Parenthood’s selling of fetal body parts is research, but admits that other affiliates may be be selling them as purely a business venture, asking: “Are the other Planned Parenthoods doing this through research, or are they doing it as a stand-alone contract? Because, even though we’re doing it through research, if it comes up as someone else is just doing it as a business sort of venture, it puts a different spin on it.”
6) Dr. Ginde further admits that calling it research is not accurate, that such language is used for the sake of appearances. The buyer says that the National Institutes of Health doesn’t like calling it research since it’s just procurement, and Dr. Ginde responds, “Well, I know, but putting it under the research gives us a little bit of a, a little sort of an overhang over the whole thing.” Buyer: “It makes it look better.” Dr. Ginde: “Yeah. And in public I think it makes a lot more sense for it to be in the research vein than, I’d say, business venture.”
7) Dr. Ginde suggests calling Planned Parenthood’s Senior Director of Medical Services Deb Nucatola — featured in the first undercover video — in order to get the spin from all the different locations straight: “So if we all decide that we are going to do it outside of research, then we do it outside of research. But if we all decided to do it under research, that we have a different path, that we know we’re all registering and doing the same thing again.”
8) Dr. Ginde implies that Planned Parenthood’s attorney has carefully covered up any wrongdoing. Buyer: “How confident are you with your attorney’s work that you’ve seen?” Dr. Ginde: “Very.” Buyer: “They’re building many layers, so that they are making it difficult?” Dr. Ginde: “He’s got it figured out that that he knows that even if — because we talked to him in the beginning, you know, we were like, ‘We don’t want to get called on, you know, selling fetal parts across states.’” And then this: “I’m confident that our legal will make sure that we are not put in that situation.”
This fourth video alone provides more than enough evidence that Planned Parenthood is selling fetal body parts not merely to cover costs but for profit, a violation of 42 U.S. Code 289g. It also reveals that when Planned Parenthood calls their organ harvesting work “research,” this is at least sometimes mere pretense.
Its defenders and friends in the media dutifully repeat those words whenever anyone objects to funding Planned Parenthood. This video will make this ruse much harder to pull off.
In the video the abortionists also slip up and exclaim “It’s a baby” and “another boy!” This, too, needs to be denied by the purveyors of “freedom” and “choice.” In the fetal body shops of America, persons are free, and persons make choices. Unpersons are, well, unmade. (Re-posted with permission of the author, “7 Admissions of Guilt by Planned Parenthood in 4th Undercover Video”, originally appeared HERE)
