Planned Parenthood Under Investigation By DOJ
December 8, 2017 at 2:24 pm
It's about time. The DOJ's investigation into Planned Parenthood is long overdue....
Quote:In that final report entitled “Human Fetal Tissue Research: Context and Controversy” published in December 2016, Grassley referred Planned Parenthood and other providers to the FBI for investigation.
Grassley said at the time that the committee has discovered enough evidence that shows how abortion providers had transferred fetal tissue and body parts from aborted fetuses for research by charging amounts higher than they actually cost.
“The report documents the failure of the Department of Justice, across multiple administrations, to enforce the law that bans the buying and selling of human fetal tissue,” Grassley wrote last December urging the Justice Department and FBI to investigate. “It also documents substantial evidence suggesting that the specific entities involved in the recent controversy, and/or individuals employed by those entities, may have violated that law.”

My prediction: no actual charges will come from this.

Adolf is relieved that now that the DOJ is not investigating murdering cops and racist terrorists that miserable little shit Sessions can hunt down all of his right-wing scams. What next, Adolf? Pizzagate?

Agree with Tibs. Doubt that this does anything but waste time and money.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Yay, more waste of government money on investigations that will go nowhere.
Meanwhile we make cuts to medicaid and medicate because fuck poor people, right?
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.

Sounds like yet another attempt by conservatives to make it as difficult as possible for people to do something deemed legal decades ago. Somebody might be overcharging for something? Maybe because politicians have been trying to defund the place since forever, and they need some extra cash flow somehow. Ironically., abortion isn't even the part that PP gets federal funding for, and that's supposedly the thing these people have the most problem with.

I was a patient at Planned Parenthood back in the 90s when I was married, had no health insurance and needed birth control. I was glad they provided low cost health care. Without those services I would've wound up pregnant and very likely unable to finish my master's degree. Long live Planned Parenthood.
