The IRS thought it was some kind of biomedicine charity.

WASHINGTON -- The anti-abortion group that released an undercover "sting" video of a Planned Parenthood doctor this week appears to be a dummy nonprofit that may have deceived the Internal Revenue Service and the public about its mission.

The two-year-old Center for Medical Progress, which claims to be in the business of reporting on biomedical research, released undercover footage Tuesday of a Planned Parenthood doctor allegedly discussing the sale of fetal body parts after abortions. The video, which Planned Parenthood has denounced as misleading and heavily edited, was circulated widely and prompted House Republicans to launch an investigation into the family planning provider.

But as Slate reports, the Center for Medical Progress appears to be nothing more than a front organization for the anti-abortion group Live Action. That is not how the IRS understood it when considering the group's application for tax-exempt status, and not how the group originally presented itself to the public in soliciting donations.

If the Center for Medical Progress deliberately misled the IRS and donors about the nature of its nonprofit work, it could be subject to civil and criminal fraud penalties. IRS forms are signed under penalty of perjury, and a nonprofit misleading its donors about the nature of its work is "up there with all other kinds of fraud," according to Bruce Hopkins, an attorney who specializes in nonprofit law.

"The authorities have the right to shut down the charity, and the individuals behind the fraud can go to prison or pay a substantial fine," Hopkins said.

Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards apologized in a video on Thursday for Nucatola's tone and statements in the video, but she maintained that the allegations about selling fetal body parts were "not true." Richards said that women seeking abortions sometimes choose to donate fetal tissue for scientific and medical research, and that Planned Parenthood follows "all laws and ethical guidelines" in doing so and makes no profit from the donations.

The anti-choice zealots have no shame.

Dear Lakhota
RE: The anti-choice zealots have no shame
What about the shooting of abortion doctors or attacks on clinics?
When people are willing to break the law, even shoot a doctor in church,
to make a public statement, what does that tell you?

To be fair to prolife advocates who are lawabiding, and don't seek to violate laws or rights of others,
if you can imagine what it's like to BELIEVE and count all those unborn babies
as "murdered children" you might be able to sympathize with prolife believers.

If you can understand the outrage of people arguing "Black Lives Matter"
while watching Black people killed as if they don't count, but are just random numbers and not people,
THAT might be similar to how prolife people feel who grieve for aborted babies, and take
on the horror and emotions of the experiences of abortion, that other people seem to deny as nonexistent.

Of if you can understand people protesting the killing of innocent civilians in war,
while surrounded by others who treat these "numbers" as random "collateral damage"
and don't have any sense that a person was lost, who had a life, and relations with others
that are now gone, leaving behind a hole in the world where that person is now missing.

Maybe THAT might relate to how prolife people feel "horrified"
that nobody is considering the life of the child and the loss and suffering.

From THAT perspective, Lakhota, don't you think the
"prochoice" people appear to have "no shame" either?

the owner of that flesh did you women hating fool.

Its her choice NOT YOURS

And what they told the IRS has what to do with being an abortion mill and now we know they are body part ghouls?

It is illegal to alter or delay timing for abortions to harvest tissue.

I doubt PP makes the patients aware of their actual intentions.

proof matters


research is allowed


there are costs to preserving tissue for research.

stop pretending someone got arrested and convicted of something

Alinsky would be proud...

So starts the smear campaign......Won't be long before they use the IRS and other government agencies to attack this investigation.....

It not like Obama hasn't used the IRS to target US citizens already....

This is what the left does.....They break the law, get caught.....and immediately go on the attack to distract and obfuscate.

 

[Darkwind]

The way to satisfy both prolife and prochoice is to prevent abortion 100% but do so 100% by free choice without any coercion, compromise or nonconsensual laws people don't agree to.

Good for you Emily, well put.

Wouldn't it be nice if both sides of this issue put their considerable passion, energy, resources and effort into minimizing the real abortion problem, which is demand?

But no, we can't have that, because that would require humility, reason and sincere cooperation. As with every other issue, the screaming narcissists are in control.

.

It would require personal responsibility.

No one is for that anymore......Well, some are not for that....

You have no proof that they are above board and not harvesting tissue illegally. Stop pretending you do.

As a person who deals with PP daily I can tell you. They are only In the abortion business... Period.

If you are a young girl wanting help or information outside of abortion... They blow you off.

Oh look...a foaming at the mouth flesh ripper defending their own.....

This is nothing more than a smear to obfuscate (do you know what that word means? If not, get an adult to give you the meaning) the fact that PP has gone beyond the pale and has started harvesting organs in direct violation of federal law....

The entire staff needs to be charged...and the organization either reorganized under responsible management, or shut down. I don't care which....but it needs to be made an example for future law breakers.

Well they can pay for crushing babies bodies above and below the thorax themselves can't they now and not use tax payer dollars.

'You’re just kind of cognizant of where you put your graspers,' Nucatola told undercover actors posing as buyers, describing abortions she had recently performed.

'You try to intentionally go above and below the thorax, so that, you know, we’ve been very good at getting heart, lung, liver, because we know that – so I’m not gonna crush that part, I’m going to basically crush below, I’m gonna crush above, and I’m gonna see if I can get it all intact.'

What a fucking ghoul.

And then she had the gall to say, "Well, you've never seen us do this" to some reporter.....basically saying, you haven't caught Me doing this....so I'm going to claim no proof on your part......as if her words aren't proof enough.

Can't use ultrasounds to show women the babies they are thinking of aborting... But they can use them to avoid harming tissue they want to harvest for profit.

^^^ someone is afraid of the spotlight being shown on the abortion procedures done illegally. Wonder why?

We know it's not to protect the health of the women.

 

[Clementine]

You hateful slimy anti-choice assholes would even condemn Jesus if he personally performed abortions.

You're not keeping up very well.

I've never been anti-choice. The subject is PP illegally selling body parts. You guys bash the people who exposed them and declare them guilty, but say wait for more proof against PP before judging. Hypocrites!

Get a grip. This thread has to do with Planned Parenthood allegedly harvesting fetal organs for profit.

^^^ someone is afraid of the spotlight being shown on the abortion procedures done illegally. Wonder why?

It's never been about the protection of the health of the women or they would have busted the monster Gosnell eons ago.

The left wing loons talk about not returning women to back lane abortions yet refused to cover the Gosnell trial which exposed the horrendous conditions women were exposed to and the brutality and inhumane treatment of babies born alive.

First, no one supports killing the doctors who murder babies. Second, millions of innocent babies murdered vs. a one or two baby murderers....and of course you side with the ones murdering babies.......you need to get your moral compass installed since you obviously don't have one.

You cry for Dr. tiller "the baby killer" known for his prolific partial birth abortion practice, and yet dismiss the innocent babies he killed.

Tiller was like Kermit Gosnell but worse. The man that killed him did the world a favor. Performing abortions to get body parts is a whole new level of barbarity. It's a moneymaker though. They get paid for the abortion and get paid for the body parts.

Since the body parts of unborn children turn a profit perhaps they should be farmed.

and you're a whole new kind of stupid
