WND EXCLUSIVE
ULTRASOUND? SURE, SAYS PLANNED PARENTHOOD, IF YOU PAY FOR ABORTION
65 of 68 facilities refuse to provide exam for any other reason

Ultrasounds are used by obstetricians to observe an unborn child and discover any complications that could arise in a pregnancy.
Except at Planned Parenthood, where they apparently are used for abortion only.
You know, to determine the age of the unborn so the abortionist knows what he’ll need to do and how much to charge, since at most abortion businesses, the later the abortion in the term, the higher the cost.
A new undercover video released by the pro-life group Live Action caught Planned Parenthood officials in Corning, New York, admitting: “We tell you you’re pregnant and then we offer at Planned Parenthood to do the abortions. … We only do ultrasounds if you are terminating.”
From Planned Parenthood in St. Louis, responding to a request for ultrasounds: “No. Nope. Not something we offer.”
And from Council Bluffs, Iowa: “We don’t do any ultrasounds for prenatal – for prenatal care. We do them when we’re doing abortions but not for any other reason.”
Live Action said its investigators discovered ultrasound machines generally only have one purpose: abortion.
“Planned Parenthood uses ultrasound to determine a baby’s age and position in the womb before it kills her. Investigators asked 68 Planned Parenthood facilities for ultrasounds to check the health of their babies, but only three were able to provide them. The remainder either did not do ultrasounds or used ultrasounds for abortions only.”
See the video:
Live Action’s Lila Rose said Planned Parenthood “knows if it shows mothers an ultrasound, it would reveal a growing child with a beating heart and kicking legs – destroying not only the ‘clump of cells’ myth, but eventually Planned Parenthood’s abortion business model.”
She said millions of Americans “need to know the truth: at Planned Parenthood, ultrasounds are used for killing, not care.”
The video is part of Live Action’s series on Planned Parenthood as the “Abortion Corporation.” It comes just as Congress is considering a plan to stop giving Planned Parenthood $500 million in taxpayer money every year.
President Trump already has stopped, by executive order, U.S. taxpayer funding to overseas operations.
Both funding plans had been enthusiastically supported by Barack Obama, when he was president, as he even promised at one point that he would not want one of his daughters saddled with an infant if they made mistake.
Live Action also recently released a video that provides stunning clarity to the real agenda of Planned Parenthood.
In it, Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards is quoted saying, “It’s important to remember, too, that the services that we provide through the federal programs are family planning, cancer screenings, prenatal care.”
Her statement is followed immediately by a response from Planned Parenthood in Arizona, where a worker states, “We don’t have prenatal care here.”
Then Richards, on social media, states, “Politicians have put STD testing, prenatal care for Planned Parenthood patients at risk in their political attack.”
Which is followed by a statement from Planned Parenthood in Athens, Ohio: “No, we wouldn’t provide any pre-type of prenatal services.”
The video:
Rose said, “Planned Parenthood finds itself in the impossible position of saying that it does just enough prenatal care to merit hundreds of millions of dollars from the government, but not enough to be criticized for failing to provide it when a pregnant woman seeks prenatal care at its centers.”
WND reported when the first video came out that only a few of the 97 abortion businesses contacted offered anything in the way of prenatal services, and one of those services was “vitamins.”
“Planned Parenthood says it’s a champion of women’s health care, yet prenatal care, which is an essential service for expectant mothers, is virtually nonexistent,” said Rose at the time. “Our investigators who wanted to keep their babies were turned away by 92 out of 97 Planned Parenthood centers. It’s clear that despite its claims, abortion is the priority and the only option for pregnant women that visit Planned Parenthood.”
The first video:
Live Action said “The Prenatal Care Deception” leads off its “Abortion Corporation” series of investigative videos.
WND reported another Live Action video showed how Planned Parenthood carried out its promise to retrain employees after some were caught on video making embarrassing statements about human trafficking and sex workers.
Instead of training workers to spot and report abuse, Planned Parenthood trained them to identify and guard against undercover journalists and investigators.
Live Action, which produced undercover videos in 2011 in which individuals working at Planned Parenthood clinics expressed willingness to aid and abet underage sex-trafficking, released its video online.
“[It] shows that Planned Parenthood lied to the media after employees were caught on camera attempting to aid and abet sex traffickers prostituting 14- and 15-year-old girls,” Live Action said. “A former Planned Parenthood manager recently revealed that while the abortion giant claimed in 2011 that it was retraining thousands of staff to identify child sex traffickers, it instead trained them how to identify undercover journalists investigating its facilities.”
Live Action said it “used public records requests to check the abortion chain’s claim that it had reported the suspected sex traffickers to authorities. The responses from law enforcement show that Planned Parenthood failed repeatedly to report the suspected crimes to local police departments, state police, or even child protective services.”
The video:
In the video, Ramona Trevino told of her experience running a Planned Parenthood operation during Live Action’s previous investigation.
Rose noted that Trevino was working at Planned Parenthood while the previous undercover investigations were done.
“I just blew it off,” Trevino said. “We don’t have anything to hide, so why are we so concerned about these undercover investigations?”
She continued, “Later on … all of that would change.”
The video features a clip of a CBS report showing Planned Parenthood staffers “all too eager to help purported teenage sex workers get abortions and contraception.”
One clip had a “pimp” telling a Planned Parenthood worker: “Some of ’em are young, they’re kind of like – some are like, 15, 14.”
That could involve criminal activity not just because of the prostitution, but because of their age.
But Planned Parenthood’s responded, “Minors are always accepted without parental consent.”
The worker continues: “You never got this from me. Just to make all of our lives easier. If they’re 14 and under … just send ’em right there if they need an abortion.”
She circled information on a sheet of paper.
Live Action exposed eight Planned Parenthood clinic staffers at seven locations “willing to aid and abet child sex traffickers.”
Richards wrote to then-Attorney General Eric Holder on the issue. But she couldn’t even, in the letter, accurately name the states where the incidents took place. And the letter claimed they were reported to authorities.
“But through the Freedom of Information Act, Live Action contacted the state justice departments, police departments and child protective services in the states listed in Planned Parenthood’s letter, and only one of the five states visited by investigators, Arizona, had responsive records that any report had been made to authorities,” the group said.
Trevino explained that while Planned Parenthood “publicly” said they would retrain staff to watch for traffickers, what they actually did was assemble employees to train them to watch for undercover journalists.
Trevino said she was told, on the issue of sex trafficking, “We’re not here to talk about that.”
She was told, “We are here to teach you how to identify if you’re being videotaped, or recorded, or entrapped in any way.”
At the time, Live Action had released more than a dozen hidden camera videos from 10 states showing “several alarming patterns of illegal Planned Parenthood activities including cover-up of sexual abuse of minors, the skirting of parental consent laws, citing unscientific and fabricated medical information to manipulate women to have abortions, and Planned Parenthood’s willingness to accept donations earmarked to abort African-American babies.”
