HOUSE REPEALS OBAMACARE
Politicians Promote ‘Virtually Non-Existent’ Planned Parenthood Services
by DR. SUSAN BERRY
National pro-life group Live Action has released a new video that demonstrates how pro-abortion politicians promote “virtually non-existent” health care services to women in America.
“For years, Planned Parenthood supporters in Congress have touted services that are declining, virtually nonexistent, or were never even offered at the abortion group to justify it receiving half a billion dollars from taxpayers every year,” says Lila Rose, president and founder of Live Action. “In this latest report, Live Action shows Planned Parenthood’s own employees debunking the myths that these politicians have told about Planned Parenthood.”
The video’s clips include statements of support for Planned Parenthood taxpayer funding by Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA), who in 2011, asserted the abortion vendor offers “mammograms and prenatal services.”
“Planned Parenthood is about providing federal funds for care like mammograms and cervical cancer screenings and prenatal care and family support and counseling,” Murray said.
In 2015, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) also stated that “prenatal services” would be “gone” if Congress eliminated Planned Parenthood’s taxpayer funding.
Similar statements were made by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Hillary Clinton, and Rep. Joe Kennedy. In the video, Live Action contrasts these statements from pro-abortion politicians with those from actual staffers at Planned Parenthood clinics throughout the United States.
Though not included in the current video, as recently as last month, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) tweeted that Planned Parenthood offers women “mammograms, maternity care, cancer screenings & more.”
Live Action released a previous video in which it observed that Planned Parenthood’s CEO Cecile Richards finally admitted her abortion business does not offer mammograms at its clinics, even though many – including herself and former President Barack Obama – have said that it does.
Similarly, Live Action demonstrated in another video that most Planned Parenthood clinics in the country do not offer prenatal care or ultrasounds unless just prior to abortion procedures.
According to the pro-life organization, in the United States Planned Parenthood performs less than two percent of breast exams, less than one percent of pap tests, less than two percent of cancer screenings, and zero mammograms. In the group’s investigation into prenatal care offered at Planned Parenthood clinics, Live Action found that staffers at 92 out of 97 of them informed women seeking prenatal care to continue their pregnancies that Planned Parenthood could not assist them.
“Planned Parenthood does 34.9 percent of U.S. abortions,” however, states Live Action.
Yet another Live Action video investigation analyzed Planned Parenthood’s own annual reports for the last decade and demonstrated that services such as breast exams and Pap tests are reduced by 60 and 77 percent, respectively, while abortions are up 27 percent. Meanwhile, taxpayer funding has more than doubled to $553 million annually. Client numbers have also decreased at Planned Parenthood, despite the increase in taxpayer funding.
“The fact that Planned Parenthood’s clients are decreasing and its cancer screenings are down by large numbers while abortions are up 27 percent is more evidence that the corporation’s focus is abortion, not women’s health care,” Rose said.
“We urge Congress to use the current 2017 budget reconciliation bill to end the taxpayer subsidizing of Planned Parenthood immediately. Every day we delay, the abortion chain gets another $1.5 million from taxpayers to keep its doors open while it kills another 887 preborn children through abortion,” she concluded.
Planned Parenthood Doc Who Wanted Lamborghini for Selling Aborted Babies Caught Selling Baby Parts Again
NATIONAL STEVEN ERTELT WASHINGTON, DC
Mary Gatter, the Planned Parenthood senior executive who infamously was caught on tape saying “I want a Lamborghini” while discussing and arranging the sale of body parts of aborted babies has been caught again.
As LifeNews reported in 2015, Mary Gatter, the Medical director at Planned Parenthood Pasadena and San Gabriel Valley in California, was caught selling aborted baby body parts to undercover investigators posing as officials with a biotech company that acts as a middleman to sell aborted baby body parts to universities and other places that conduct such research.
In the prior video, Gatter discusses the pricing of aborted baby body parts — telling the biotech company officials that the prices for such things as a baby’s liver, head or heart are negotiable. She also tells the officials that she could talk with the Planned Parenthood abortion practitioners to potentially alter the abortion procedure to kill the baby in a way that would best preserve those body parts after the unborn child is killed in the abortion.
In this new video, Gatter is again caught haggling over per-specimen pricing for livers, lungs, and brains, even while insisting the purchaser must do all the work to harvest.
The video is the second of a never-before-seen batch of undercover footage being released by The Center for Medical Progress.
At a Planned Parenthood conference evening reception, CMP investigators posing as buyers from a biotech company are introduced to Dr. Gatter for the first time by Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Senior Director of Medical Services.
“I wanted you to meet Mary Gatter,” says Dr. Nucatola, before Dr. Gatter steps forward.
Gatter was for many years the Medical Director of Planned Parenthood Los Angeles, before moving to the same position at the Pasadena affiliate, and then being elected President of Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Medical Directors’ Council. As Medical Director at PPLA, Gatter oversaw the affiliate’s partnership with Novogenix Laboratories, LLC, a local for-profit fetal organ and tissue harvesting company.
“I did it in LA, I’m committed to it, I think it’s a great idea,” says Gatter to the purported body parts buyers. Discussing the number of abortions at her Pasadena clinic, Gatter asks, “What kind of volume do you need and what gestational ages?”
During the conversation, Gatter advises, “You know, you have to pay a little money to use the space.” After asking for a ballpark figure, the buyer observes, “Most people now seem to be doing per specimen.”
“Per specimen. Like $75 a specimen?” Gatter replies. After the buyer asks for clarification, Gatter repeats, “$75 a specimen, or $50 a specimen?” The buyer replies, “What we’ve been quoting is $50 per specimen. I think some people are doing more, some slightly less.”
Gatter then comments, “Yeah, $50’s on the low end, $50 [per specimen] was like 12 years ago.”
The buyer then explains, “What we like about per-specimen is that way we’re not paying for [fetal] material that we can’t use, you know?” Gatter nods, saying, “Yeah yeah, yeah.”
Federal law permits reimbursement for specified costs in a fetal organ or tissue donation, but prohibits the purchase and sale of the organs and tissues themselves (42 U.S.C. 289g-2).
The buyer continues, “If we can get a liver, a lung, and you know, a brain–” before Gatter interjects, “But you would show up to do this? You would send somebody,” to which the buyer answers affirmatively. Gatter concludes the conversation saying, “Yeah I’d be willing, give me a call.”
According to contracts and invoices, the real-life fetal organ and tissue wholesaler companies Novogenix, StemExpress, and Advanced Bioscience Resources all made monthly payments to Planned Parenthood based on the number of resalable fetal specimens the wholesalers’ workers could harvest inside the abortion clinics. Planned Parenthood told Congressional investigators it kept no contemporaneous records of actual costs for reimbursement under the law.
The Novogenix contract promises Planned Parenthood Los Angeles $45 “per donated specimen.” Planned Parenthood Los Angeles does over 15,000 abortions every year, but has never publicly admitted how much money they received total under their contract with Novogenix. In December 2016, the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Select Investigative Panel both referred Planned Parenthood Los Angeles and Novogenix to the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice for further investigation and criminal prosecution.
CMP project lead David Daleiden notes, “The fact that Novogenix, StemExpress, and ABR stationed their own workers inside Planned Parenthood abortion clinics to perform the harvesting, packaging, and transport of aborted baby body parts demonstrates that Planned Parenthood had no reimbursable costs under the law. The volume-based sums that Planned Parenthood charged these businesses for baby parts are criminal trafficking and profiteering in fetal body parts. The U.S. Department of Justice should take heed of the Congressional investigations’ criminal referrals and prosecute Planned Parenthood to the full extent of the law, and taxpayers must stop being forced to subsidize Planned Parenthood’s criminal abortion empire.”
The failing, liberal New York Times published a fake news story this week claiming an “examination” of Washington, DC’s school choice program shows that school vouchers “(have) not improved student achievement, and it may have worsened it.”The NYT doesn’t get it.
Actually, they probably do…but they want to slant the news to benefit the teachers union and government school bureaucrats. Regardless, the issue isn’t about test scores. It’s about choice.
Who gets to choose? Do parents get to choose which school they send their kid to the same way they get to choose their kid’s doctor? Or does the government get to tell parents which school their kids are forced to attend based solely on the neighborhood they live in?
Vouchers and Education Savings Accounts simply give low- and middle-income families the means to exercise their choice - just like wealthy families. You shouldn’t be forced to send your kids to a government school simply because you’re not rich.
I wish Republicans would start hammering home this "who chooses" point instead of constantly getting drawn into this irrelevant “test scores” argument all the time.
Cheers.

P.S. Speaking of Obama, doesn’t his endorsement of French establishment presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron constitute meddling in a foreign country’s elections? And hasn’t Obama said in the past that’s a bad thing?
Ivanka Gets Revenge On Planned Parenthood CEO & Feminazis, You’ll Love This
Ivanka Trump (left), Feminazi protesting pro-life policies (middle), Cecil Richards (right)Ivanka Trump has come under fire from the mainstream media and pro-abortion feminazis, and reports are saying that Planned Parenthood’s CEO is pissed at Ivanka. Cecil Richards, who gets rich by killing babies at her abortion mills, is letting the media know her disdain as she tries to shame Ivanka, but the First Daughter is getting sweet revenge on both Planned Parenthood and Richards. You’re going to love this.
Pro-life Donald Trump supporters were up in arms right after the inauguration when it was learned that Ivanka Trump had a meeting with Planned Parenthood’s Cecil Richards. Right away, it was assumed that Ivanka would be an advocate for the abortion movement, and Cecil Richards, a ruthless woman who needs federal money to maintain her abortion mills, was pinning all her hope on Ivanka, too.
Now, Richards is like a wounded animal as she realizes that whatever Ivanka’s personal politics may be, she is in no way going to promote Planned Parenthood. Life News reports, “The CEO of the Planned Parenthood abortion business is growing impatient with Ivanka Trump, daughter of President Donald Trump, and is grousing that Ivanka is not pushing her father to promote abortion.”
Cecil Richards backed Hillary Clinton for president. They both advocate for late term abortions up to nine months.Feminazis hate Ivanka, taking their cue from Cecil Richards. They have been disparaging her name and attacking her kids online, all because she refuses to back their sick agenda.
Time Magazine has more on Richards’ frustration with Ivanka and her attempt to pressure Ivanka to get her father to push its abortion advocacy. As always, Richards clouds abortion with language about women’s health, even though Planned Parenthood does very little in terms of legitimate health care for pregnant women.
“It’s time for Ivanka to … stand for women,” Cecile Richards told Buzzfeed, adding that Ivanka’s silence on the abortion issue has been “deafening,” since Ivanka Trump is believed to be very influential with her father. However, Ivanka has not said much publicly about Planned Parenthood or her stance on abortion.
Cecil Richards is pissed off, realizing Ivanka played her. Richards asked Ivanka for a meeting, and Ivanka acquiesced, thinking there’s no harm in letting her come and give her spiel. Richards thought she dominated Ivanka, probably warning her that she would look anti-woman if she sided with pro-lifers.
Richards is speaking out now because she’s desperate. Planned Parenthood firmly rejected a proposal by President Donald Trump, offering to preserve federal funding for the women’s health organization if it stopped providing abortion services. That’s all they do provide, so Richards’ last hope is Ivanka.
However, Ivanka isn’t going to do a damn thing for Planned Parenthood. She duped Richards. It was Richards who drew too many conclusions from one meeting, and this is sweet revenge not only for Ivanka but for all Americans who are pro-life.
“She apparently has the portfolio for all women’s issues in the White House,” Richards said at the TIME 100 Gala on Tuesday night. “That’s a huge responsibility, and women are waiting to see a sign from this White House that they’re on our side.” Well, Ivanka silence is the sign the abortion queen Cecil Richards was waiting for. President Trump put a stellar pro-life judge on the Supreme Court, and that was another sign that Richards and her diabolical organization are not influencing this White House one iota.
Cecil Richards makes over $600,000 dollars a year as the CEO of Planned Parenthood; that’s $600,000 dollars a year to promote infanticide. That disgusting woman is anti-women and anti-baby, and watching her meltdown in public is a happy site to all Americans who cherish life.
Liberal insanity goes nuclear (you won’t believe this…)
Liberalism is a mental disease — and it’s only getting worse.
For the first time in its history, Denmark has banned 6 “hate preachers” from entering the country. Five of the six are radical Muslim imams whose preaching could whip up the country’s fast-growing Islamic population into a violent mob. More than one is tied to terrorist organizations.
So, this European country is keeping Islamic hate preachers from sparking a new Muslim revolution within its borders.
So far, so good.
But years of left-wing indoctrination means they did it in the most PC way possible. They actually said that burning the Koran was as bad as helping al-Qaeda get weapons or inciting Muslims “to smash skulls and to sever limbs.
The sixth “hate preacher” banned from the country is Pastor Terry Jones, the Florida preacher who once burned a copy of the Koran. Jones torched the Muslim “holy book” to protest the Iranian government sentencing a pastor to death for converting from Islam to Christianity.
Jones has already paid a steep price for thinking he had the right to free speech. That earned Jones the number two spot on al-Qaeda’s hit list, and he still has a $2 million bounty on his head. He was arrested for trying to burn more Korans and then had his french fry stand hounded out of business by angry liberals.
Now 65, he’s reduced to working for Uber.
Pastor Jones is a Christian who opposes Islamic terrorism, hatred, and murder — a man marked for death by the very people who destroyed the World Trade Center on 9/11.
Just compare him with the five other “hate preachers” banned by Denmark:

Just compare him with the five other “hate preachers” banned by Denmark:
-
Bilal Philips, was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. He’s publicly defended suicide bombers, been accused of having links to ISIS, and said that husbands have the right to rape their wives. He’s already been banned from England, Australia, Germany, Kenya, the Philippines, and Bangladesh.
-
Mohamad al-Arefe is a Saudi preacher who is said to be in daily contact with al-Qaeda in Syria. His publicly praised “the desire to shed blood, to smash skulls, and to sever limbs for the sake of Allah.” He’s banned from Switzerland and England.
-
Sheikh Mohammad Rateb al-Nabulsi was allowed to do a 17-city tour of the U.S. to collect money for Syrian “rebels” (that is, terrorists) by President Obama in 2014. He has said suicide bombers should be considered martyrs and that all Jews should be considered potential murder targets. As for gays, “Homosexuality carries the death penalty,” he says.
-
Salman al-Ouda has been quoted approvingly by Osama bin Laden. He spent five years in jail for calling on Muslims to overthrow the Saudi Arabian government because he thinks it’s not Islamic enough. He has called the Holocaust “a myth of tremendous proportions” and that Jews murder children at Passover in order to make “matzos with human blood.” He even called Mickey Mouse a “soldier of Satan.”
-
Kamal el-Mekki, an American Muslim who has defended killing Muslims who leave Islam and said adulterers should be publicly whipped by the government.
Like they say on Sesame Street: “One of these things is not like the other….”
To liberals, though, they’re apparently the same.
The nation’s minister of immigration said his country “will not accept that hate preachers come to Denmark to preach hatred against Danish society and indoctrinate others to commit violence against women and children, spread ideas about a caliphate, and in general undermine our fundamental values.”
But since when is the Koran part of Europe’s “fundamental values”? When did Mohammed become part of Danish culture in the land of Hans Christian Andersen?
Europe today has no “desire to reproduce itself, fight for itself or even take its own side in an argument,” Douglas Murray wrote recently in The London Times. That’s why even the list of five foreign hate preachers was a huge step forward.
And make no mistake about it, Denmark has every reason to be concerned about Muslim terrorism. Islamic jihadists have struck Denmark twice, in 2007 and 2015. In 2010, police arrested five men who planned to murder the man who published cartoons of “The Prophet” Muhammad.
Still, Denmark just can’t stop itself from helping people who hate them. As The Horn News reported, dozens of Muslims fought for ISIS while collecting welfare in Denmark. And there’s been no reform at all.
Danish authorities are too busy persecuting “hateful” Christians like Pastor Jones.

Networks Complain Trump’s Religious Liberty Order Will ‘Erase' Obama’s 'Legacy’
All three networks this morning predictably reacted negatively to President Trump signing an executive order to scale back federal regulations on religious organizations. Calling the order “controversial,” the three networks warned the bill would likely cause discrimination and fretted about forced birth control coverage. Yet not one of the networks interviewed a religious group that would be affected positively by this order.
The new executive order would roll back the Johnson Amendment and some of the regulations put on organizations by Obama. Now, religious groups can endorse political candidates without losing their tax-exempt status, and can choose to exempt contraception from their employees’ healthcare plans, for moral objections.
Despite the positive outlook for religious groups who have been previously hampered by restrictions on their freedom of religion, the three morning show broadcasts were less than enthused about the news.
NBC’s Today show set the pessimistic tone by describing the order as “controversial” right off the bat. White House Correspondent Kristen Welker declared, “Later today President Trump will sign a controversial executive orderaimed at easing restrictions on political activity by churches and charities.”
She then touted that the order could cause “discrimination,” failing to note that “discrimination” against religious groups was exactly why the order was signed.

“That move is being cheered by conservatives but opponents warn it could lead to discrimination.”
Over on ABC’s Good Morning America, anchor Robin Roberts and White House Correspondent Cecilia Vega fretted that this order was going to make people upset and cause protests.
ROBERTS: But still a lot of people are not pleased with this at all in fact a lot of protests are planned when the president comes back to New York City for the first time since his inauguration. Tell people about the preparations here in the city.
VEGA: You're exactly right. Law enforcement preparing for some big protests today...
CBS This Morning took a different approach, touting that Trump was “erasing” and “rolling back” Obama’s “legacy.”
GARRETT: One item not in Mr. Trump’s order? Reported draft language that would’ve erased another Obama legacy item by permitting federal contractors to discriminate against LGBT employees.
Garrett added that these Obama era mandates were part of his predecessor’s “achievements” as a snarky segway:
“Rolling back his predecessor’s achievements is one thing,” Garrett said, “Achieving Middle East peace is another."
'The Simpsons' Hilariously Memorializes Clinton Campaign
I have to give it to The Simpsons on this one. They know when something is clearly past its time. This week’s episode of the Fox sitcom tackles two things that just didn’t die fast enough: the Pokémon Go fad and Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
On the April 30th episode “Looking for Mr. Goodbart,” Homer (Dan Castellaneta) becomes obsessed with the latest online fad Peekimon Get, an obvious parody on Pokémon Go, which leads him on a similar path to ridiculous and sometimes dangerous locations just to catch digital creatures. One of the spots includes a graveyard (where else?) where the show gives a brief blink-and-you’ll-miss-it memorial to the Clinton campaign in the bottom right corner.
What a pleasant reminder that the Clinton-Kaine ticket lived as it died: as the butt of a brief joke.
Watch the last time the two fads crossed paths. It’s as hilarious as any sitcom.

'Why Isn't Communism as Hated as Nazism?'
By DENNIS PRAGER
When people describe particularly evil individuals or regimes, why is it that they use the terms “Nazi” or “fascist,” but almost never “communist?” Given the unparalleled amount of human suffering communists have caused, why is “communist” so much less a term of revulsion than “Nazi?”
Communists killed 70 million people in China, more than 20 million people in the Soviet Union (not including about 5 million Ukrainians), and almost one out of every three Cambodians. And communists enslaved entire nations in Russia, Vietnam, China, Eastern Europe, North Korea, Cuba and much of Central Asia. They ruined the lives of well over a billion people. So, why doesn’t communism have the same terrible reputation as Nazism?
Reason Number 1: There is, simply put, widespread ignorance of the communist record. Whereas both right and left loathe Nazism and teach its evil history, the left – and I’m talking about the left, not traditional liberals like Harry Truman or John F. Kennedy – has never loathed communism. And since the left dominates academia, almost no one teaches communism’s evil history.
Reason Number 2: The Nazis carried out the Holocaust. Nothing matches the Holocaust for pure evil. The rounding up of virtually every Jewish man, woman, child, and baby on the European continent and sending them to die is unprecedented and unparalleled. The communists killed far more people than the Nazis, but never matched the Holocaust in the systemization of genocide. The uniqueness of the Holocaust and the enormous attention rightly paid to it have helped ensure that Nazism has a worse name than communism.
Reason Number 3: Communism is based on nice sounding theories; Nazism isn’t. It’s based on heinous sounding theories. Intellectuals in general – including, of course, the intellectuals who write history – are seduced by words – so much so, that they deem actions as less significant than words. For that reason, they haven’t focused nearly as much attention on the horrific actions of communists as they have on the horrific actions of the Nazis. They dismiss the evils of communists as perversions of “true communism.” But they regard Nazi atrocities (correctly) as the logical and inevitable results of Nazism.
Reason Number 4: Germans have thoroughly exposed the evils of Nazism, have taken responsibility for them, and have attempted to atone for them. Russians have not done anything similar regarding Lenin’s or Stalin’s horrors. To the contrary, Lenin, the father of Soviet communism, is still widely venerated in Russia. And as regards Stalin, as University of London Russian historian Donald Rayfield puts it, “People still deny, by assertion or implication, Stalin’s holocaust.” Even less so has China exposed the greatest mass murderer and enslaver of them all, Mao Zedong. Mao remains revered in China. Every Chinese currency note has his picture on it. Until Russia and China – and Vietnam, and Cuba, and North Korea – acknowledge the evils their countries committed under communism, communism’s evils will remain less known than the evils of the German state under Hitler.
Reason Number 5: Communists murdered mostly their own people. The Nazis, on the other hand, killed very few fellow Germans. “World opinion” – that largely meaningless and amoral term – deems the murder of members of one’s own group far less noteworthy than the murder of outsiders. That’s why, for example, blacks killing millions of fellow blacks in Africa elicits almost no attention from “world opinion.”
And Reason Number 6: In the view of the left, the last “good war” was World War II, the war against German Nazism and Japanese fascism. The left does not regard wars against communist regimes as “good wars.” For example, the American war against Vietnamese communism is regarded as immoral, and the war against Korean communism – and its Chinese communist backers – is simply ignored.
Until the left, and all the institutions influenced by the left, acknowledge how evil communism has been, we will continue to live in a morally confused world.
In the meantime, all good people owe it to the victims of communism to learn what happened to them. Even worse than being murdered or enslaved is a world that doesn’t even know that you were.
