Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 Podcast.
Hi, folks.
Great to have you here.
And my gosh, it's already Wednesday.
Here we are at the middle of the busy broadcast week, already in hump day.
And it's great to have you here.
Another three hours of broadcast excellence hosted by me, your guiding light.
And remember, if we don't talk about it here, it's not worth knowing.
So if you haven't heard me discuss something, no sweat, it isn't that big a deal.
800 282-2882 again, the phone number and the email address, Lrushbow at EIBNet.com.
I had a story in the stack yesterday about this Planned Parenthood butchery that I sloughed off to the side, and I intended to get to it yesterday, and I didn't.
I had a lot of things I intended to get to yesterday, and I didn't.
A lot of audio sound bites on this Iranian thing.
Mm-hmm.
And I uh I'm kind of glad I didn't because it's enabled me to study something.
I've been paying attention to cable news all morning, and I've checked a couple of other news sites that would constitute the drive-by media.
And I haven't seen anything on this.
I mean hardly a reference.
All morning on CNN it's been Trump.
I mean, it's Trump, Trump, Trump.
They're not even talking about the Iranian deal.
I mean, they're doing everything they can at CNN to cover up the absolute disaster that is Obama's America.
And while everybody realizes that we are living in the midst of a disaster, CNN focusing on Trump all morning, has the effect of associating him with the disaster.
So I think that's one of the purposes, not specifically just we're in a mess here, the Iranian deals over here, this planned parenthood butchery, and we're talking Trump all day on CNN.
It's uh it's a way to cover, not cover X, way to cover up or not cover some of the really horrible things that are happening in this country and replace them with the bashing of Donald Trump, which I think is a subliminal effect of blaming Trump for it.
Uh Fox has given this some coverage, not a whole lot, but it's just the sickest.
It is the most evil.
It is the most depraved thing that I have heard in a in a long while.
And I think precisely because it is sick and evil and depraved is why mainstream drive-by media outlets are not covering it.
Now the associated press is, but the associated press has joined planned parenthood in the sickness and in the evil and in the depravity in the way they are attempting to report this.
And of course, here I am talking about this, and I'm reminded of all of the Republicans over the years who have warned me and thumped me in the chest with their fingers and warned me away from this.
You've got to stop talking about the social issues.
Social issues are killing us, Rush.
And you've got the power to get everybody to stop talking about it.
Social issues always meant abortion.
You can get people to stop talking about it.
People listen to you.
But they're killing us.
The social issues are killing us.
And it's only been recently that I finally discovered that we're not the ones doing the social issues.
We are just getting up every day, and we're looking at all the things that we hold dear under attack.
And if they're economic, we respond.
And if they're social, we respond.
If they're political, we respond.
But the point is we're on defense all the time.
We are never on offense.
We're not on offense with the social issues.
We're on defense.
And the only reason we're talking about social issues is because they're under assault.
And those of us who consider ourselves to occupy positions of responsibility here have no choice but then to respond and to defend.
And yet, while that happens, somehow, conservatives and Republicans get blamed for focusing on social issues.
When it is the left that's on the march with social issues.
And the march that they are engaging in is tearing the country apart.
The social fabric, the morality, the glue.
It's not us.
I remember back in the early days of the abortion debate and argument.
And I first got into it when I was still working in my adopted hometown of Sacramento, California.
And even then, you know, I would go out and make a speech, and if I talked about it, when it was over, I would hear from people, you know, you're making the audience loves you, but you're really making them nervous.
So why?
Abortion, you know, it's so personal and private.
You just should drop it.
You just making people nervous.
I mean, I have had people driving my cars telling me this.
You're really gonna drop it.
I mean, I I watched your speech.
I was in the back of the room, and people start whispering to each other when you start talking about it.
And then got to New York, started this program, did the caller abortions bit to illustrate what actually happens in an abortion by demonstrating it with phone calls, vacuum cleaner sound effects, and all hell broke loose on that because it hit home.
I mean, it was perfect, it was great, it was brilliant illustration of what actually happens.
It hit too close to home.
You've got to start talking about this, right?
It's making people too nervous.
And then the pro-choice people who always claim to occupy the moral high ground, by the way, on the basis it was personal choice.
And you shouldn't be in my bedroom, and the government shouldn't be in my bedroom.
It's just unviable tissue mass, remember all those arguments.
That's an unviable tissue mass.
And then we went through the phase where pregnancy, we're still there, by the way, pregnancy was an illness.
Am I making you nervous now?
You get nervous now, folks.
If you're wondering why I'm bringing this up, it means you haven't heard yet what's going on.
Yeah, so in unviable tissue mass, uh, then pregnancy was an illness.
You remember all of the arguments.
And of course, with each argument, I did my best intellectually to refute every one of them.
What do you mean unviable tissue mass?
I said, conception has to begin.
Life has to begin at conception.
Where else can it be?
Because you tell me where it begins.
If it doesn't begin at conception.
And I had some feminazi one day tell me that, well, according to you, then, if a guy goes and masturbates, that's the same thing as murder.
I said, Are you kidding me?
No, that's I'm I haven't had many feminazes tell me that.
And that's how absurd that it uh that it got.
And then we've over the years we became aware of such people as Kermit, whatever his name was, the butcher.
And then we heard of late-term abortion, and then we heard of after-birth abortion.
And with every discovery, every realization of what was really going on here, and what the actual purpose was.
People got more and more nervous, and more and more people didn't want to talk about it, and I began to hear more and more, you've got to drop the social issues.
It's we're never gonna win on them, and it's it's just it's just we're never gonna get to women vote, and we're never gonna get whatever vote.
And I said, I don't care, I have a moral conscience, not my job to get votes here.
I'm sorry, I just can't look the other way throughout all of this.
And I have, over the course of these 25 plus years, I have made observations that as abortion becomes common and frequent and accepted.
What's the impact on the rest of society?
And if life becomes worthless, if life ends up being cheapened and doesn't count for anything, then what's gonna happen to the overall crime rate?
What's happening in Chicago?
What's happening all over this country with a crime rate?
I mean, is life not perceived as something that's less than.
I mean, really unique and special.
I mean, it's just it's it's it's a shame.
It's I think it's at the root of so many of our cultural and moral failings.
Anyway, uh everything you've heard abortionists say about what they do and why is a lie.
It's it's it's far, far worse.
There are an estimated 3300 abortions per day in the country.
About 1.3 million a year.
It may go up or down year to year, but that's pretty much a good figure and average.
300 and or 3300, 3,300 abortions per day is about 367 Charleston church massacres every day.
It's over 15 Charleston church massacres every hour.
And we're properly horrified by the Charleston church massacre.
And we're horrified by school shootings.
We're horrified and indignant, angry over movie theater shootings, mass shootings, columbine, you name it.
Those are deliberate, calculated murders.
Charleston, nine innocent worshippers.
So now we have 3300 children in a womb being murdered every day, but now we know that there's a lot more going on at Planned Parenthood than just collecting money for performing abortions.
We now know that planned parenthood is harvesting body parts from the aborted babies and selling them.
A video of an abortionist, a woman, while eating a salad, describing the procedure to people at a restaurant.
She's stuffing Caesar salad in her mouth, discussing the value of a heart or of a liver, and a procedure by which she obtains these organs, making sure during the actual abortion not to damage any of the organs that she is going to harvest and sell.
Remember when we heard about Kermit Gaznell, this guy in Philly, we had all these uh fetuses and body parts and jars and hermetically sealed containers.
We just thought this guy was a reprobate sicko.
But it looks like there was far more going on than anybody knew because this is not something anybody really contemplated.
I mean, this news has shocked everybody.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm gonna get to the latest on Iran today.
It's just as bad today as it was yesterday.
And yeah, we're gonna get back to Trump, and yes, Obama has written 46 letters to 46 felons, telling them he's commuting their sentences, telling them what a wonderful guy he is, what he's doing for them, still hasn't reached out to the Steinley family in San Francisco.
The Steinley family is now ripping Trump.
And I like what Trump is saying about they don't like Trump trying to glom on to their family members' death.
Now that's a change because early on they loved Trump, loved what Trump was doing.
But the Steinley family apparently are San Franciscans, and they're getting nervous here that people are rallying around Trump because of this.
So they're caving just a bit.
Not a big deal, but we'll mention it.
Planned Parenthood is now defending selling body parts of aborted babies, and they're calling this tissue.
Planned Parenthood Abortion Business has responded to a shocking new expose video that caught the top doctor at Planned Parenthood, describing how the abortion business sells the body parts of aborted babies.
Undercover footage, the woman doesn't know she's being videotaped.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America's senior director of medical services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, describes how Planned Parenthood sells the body parts of aborted unborn children, and admitting that she uses partial birth abortions to supply intact body parts for anywhere between 30 and 100 dollars.
And livers.
Livers are the big deal, livers and hearts.
In the video, this doctor, this senior director of medical services at Planned Parenthood, Dr. Deborah Nukatola.
She's at a business launch with actors posing as buyers from a human biologics company.
And is head of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America's Medical Services Department, Dr. Nukatola, has overseen medical practice at all planned parenthood locations since 2009.
She also trains new Planned Parenthood abortion doctors and performs abortions herself at Planned Parenthood Los Angeles up to 24 weeks.
I have to take a break here.
I just saw the clock.
But hang in there, folks.
We'll be back.
We will uh continue this.
And just give you a heads up.
AP reporting the butchery.
I mean, we are butchering aborted fetuses and selling the body parts.
AP, in their story today, refers to this as the disposition of fetal remains.
We'll be back after this.
Welcome back, Rushland Boy Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
Federal law prohibits the sale of body parts of aborted babies.
Guess that doesn't matter.
In fact, the sale or purchase of human fetal tissue is a federal felony punishable by up to ten years in jail and a fine of up to $500,000.
Previous videos capturing Planned Parenthood breaking the law have uh not been discredited, and they actually have resulted in Planned Parenthood abortion business, actually firing people who engaged in actually who got caught in law breaking,
just as, you know, acorn people got fired when it was discovered they were breaking the law, but that was just for public consumption.
Now the statement from Planned Parenthood on all this is itself sick and depraved.
Eric Ferraro, Vice President Communications, in health care, patients sometimes want to donate tissue to scientific research that can help lead to medical breakthroughs, treatments, and cures for serious diseases.
If Planned Parenthood had cured some incurable disease as a result of this butchery, you'd think they would have announced it by now.
But they haven't, because they haven't cured anything.
Planned Parenthood hasn't gotten to the bottom of any illness by virtue of this practice.
And we know this because if they had, they would have been trumpeting this all over the place, and they'd be collecting even more money for the procedure, and the sick would be lining up, demanding to benefit from it.
Nevertheless, in healthcare, patients sometimes want to donate tissue.
Patients what are we talking about?
Who is the patient here?
In health care, patients sometimes want to donate tissue to scientific research that can help lead to medical breakthroughs, treatments, and cures for serious diseases.
Who's the patient here?
Women at Planned Parenthood who have abortions are no different.
At several of our health centers, we help patients who want to donate tissue for scientific research, and we do this just like every other high quality health care provider does, with full appropriate consent from patients and under the highest ethical and legal standards.
Who's the patient here?
Patients granting consent?
Really?
Who's the patient?
Then the statement says there is no financial benefit for tissue donation for either the patient or planned parenthood.
Oh, really?
There's no financial benefit.
Then the reasons for doing this must really really be depraved.
If there's no financial benefit here.
And it goes on.
So you hang in there, folks, if you can, and we will be back.
Talent on loan from God.
The all knowing, all caring, all sensing, all feeling, all concerned, all everything maha rushy.
Here behind the Golden EIB network.
Now back to the statement here from Planned Parenthood as they attempt to excuse the butchery of fetuses and the harvesting and selling of body parts.
Eric Ferraro is the VP of Communications who issued this statement.
There is no financial benefit for tissue donation or either the for either the patient or Planned Parenthood.
In fact, in some instances, actual costs, such as the cost to transport tissue to leading research centers, are reimbursed, which is standard across the medical field.
So we're harvesting tissue here, leading research centers, hoping to find a cure for who knows what list of incurable diseases.
But again, I'm forced to observe that there obviously have been no such breakthroughs because there have been no such announcements, because there had there been such breakthroughs, had planned parenthood's butchery led to say the cure for cancer are Alzheimer's, I dare say we would have heard about it.
And then there would be a long line of people wanting whatever Planned Parenthood was doing that led to said cure, but since none of that is happening.
We have to assume this butchery hasn't led to any of the aforementioned and previously referenced medical breakthroughs and cures, which are supposed to be the high browed, high valued excuse for this.
And then in the statement, Planned Parenthood says a well-funded group established for the purpose of damaging Planned Parenthood's mission and services has promoted a heavily edited, secretly recorded video tape that falsely portrays planned parenthood's participation in tissue donation programs that support life-saving scientific research.
Of course, it's easy to say that you're engaged in life saving scientific research, but where are the results?
Where are the lives saved?
We're killing lives here.
We're ending.
We're destroying.
We're killing.
Where's the life saving here?
This is how perverted this is.
Similar false accusations have been put forth by opponents of abortion services for decades.
These groups have been widely discredited, and their claims fall apart on closer examination, just as they do in this case.
But again, federal law prohibits the sale of body parts for aborted babies.
Now let's talk about we I I cannot play the audio of this video because you wouldn't be able to hear it.
It needs captioning.
So much ambient noise takes place in a restaurant with all the accompanying noise that's in a restaurant.
The footage that has led to the discovery of all this, which is admitted to by once again this well-known doctor.
Dr. Deborah Nucatola.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America Senior Director of Medical Services.
She's the one featured in the video.
And she admits that Planned Parenthood charges per specimen for baby body parts.
She admits that they use illegal partial birth abortion procedures in order to get parts that they can sell.
And she admits that she's aware of their own liability for doing so and takes steps to cover it up.
The footage depicts this woman, Nucatola, munching on her salad while she discusses the sale of body parts from unborn children victimized by abortion.
She describes, and I know it's lunchtime for mythians in this audience, so let me just warn you what you're going to hear here coming up.
She brazenly describes how the heads of unborn babies killed in abortions command top dollar.
The buyers, who are the ones recording the video, ask Dr. Nukatola, how much of a difference can that actually make?
I mean, if you know what kind of what's expected or what we need.
The doctor says it makes a huge difference.
I'd say a lot of people want liver.
And for that reason, most providers will do this under ultrasound guidance so that they will know where they are putting their forceps.
The kind of rate limiting step of the procedure is calvarium.
Calvarium, the head, that's the biggest part.
Now we've been very good at getting heart.
We've been very good at getting lung.
We have been very good at getting liver because we know that.
So I'm not going to crush that part.
I'm going to basically crush below.
I'm going to crush above.
I'm going to see if I can get it all intact.
She's describing the destruction of the baby in order to successfully harvest saleable parts.
Yeah, we've been very good at getting heart and lung and liver, because we know that.
So I'm not going to crush that part.
I'm going to basically crush below.
I'm going to crush a but she's eating a salad while explaining this to potential buyers, she thinks.
And with the calvarium, which again is the head, with the calvarium in general, some people will actually try to change the presentation so that it's not vertex, in other words, inverted.
So if you do it starting from the breach presentation, there's dilation that happens as the case goes on, and often the last step you can evacuate an intact calvarium at the end.
She is in a celebratory way describing how she, regardless of the position of the baby in a womb, is able to successfully remove an intact calvarium.
Now, of course, they've put their statement out, they have denied anything here.
They've this is tissue harvesting.
We're tissue harvesting.
We're medical research.
Tape has been doctored.
It's typical, it's been made up, it's been edited, it's fraudulent by people who've been trying to destroy the abortion business forever.
There's nothing to see here.
We don't even make any money from it.
We're just trying to advance the cures of several diseases.
No money.
Body parts are sold.
This story says anywhere from 30 to 100.
She told the actors in the same video, yeah, a lot of people looking for hearts these days.
The price is 30 to 100 per specimen.
Now, wait a second here, folks.
Does something obvious occur to you?
You mean to tell me from an unviable tissue mass we are able to extract functioning livers and hearts and kidneys from an unviable tissue mass.
We're able, they are able to harvest these organs which can be made to grow and function and which may in fact already be functioning at the time of harvest.
How does that I mean that violates everything that Planned Parenthood and the pro-choice crowd has told us over the years that there's no nothing to see here?
It's an unviable tissue mass or whatever construction of words they come up with to describe a fetus.
How can this be?
I mean, these are these are from words are from the Planned Parenthood doctor herself.
You had a lot of people looking for hearts these days.
In fact, before that, she says, you know, every provider has had patients who want to donate their tissue, and they absolutely want to accommodate them.
We do, and so they just they just want to do it in a way that not perceived as this clinic is selling tissue, this clinic is making money off of this.
Every provider, meaning every abortion clinic, has had patients.
Again, who is the patient?
I know, I know, I know.
The fetus doesn't exist.
It's the mother who is the patient.
But I'm asking this uh kind of rhetorically, because the real patient here doesn't even have a say in this, is the point I'm making.
I don't want to be mysterious and leave anything to be concluded, perhaps incorrectly.
I mean, I'm a communicator who wants you to know what I'm saying.
And to me, the patient is the baby, and the patient's not granting any consent.
And the baby has not said, yeah, yeah, I want to donate my tissue.
Yeah, yeah, I want to accommodate your buyers.
I know what you're saying.
Rush, don't be silly, the baby can't know that, folks.
That's the point.
That's the point.
Yeah, the uh patients, they just want to do it in a way that's not perceived as, or the providers want to do it in such a way that we're not seen as selling tissue, right?
And we're not making money off of it, right?
So what do we say?
Well, we say we're furthering life-saving medical research.
But if planned parenthood is anything, it's a for-profit scheme.
It's a for-profit operation.
We can add the politics to this later if we want to.
But now we go to the AP, because now it's time to circle the wagons.
And it's time for friends of Planned Parenthood throughout the drive-by media to provide whatever support, deflection, refraction, whatever is necessary to actually make sure this story doesn't become anything.
Now, we've we've longed the associated press, we've known they they refer to unborn children as unviable tissue mass uh fetus or what have you.
But covering this story, AP has really bent over backwards to use euphemisms to soften the blow of this.
In fact, I you see, you ever heard of the TV show American Horror Story?
The first year was about this kind of thing.
And a haunted house in LA where this kind of thing was going on the base.
Anyway, here's the AP story.
Anti-abortion activists on Tuesday released an undercover video showing a senior Planned Parenthood official discussing the disposition of parts from aborted fetuses.
The activist contended the video reveals illegalities, but Planned Parenthood said the activity in question was the legal, not for profit donation of fetal tissue to research or research firms.
You people are going to have to make up your mind.
You're either harvesting workable, salvageable, healthy hearts, lungs, livers, whatever, or it's just fetal tissue.
You have to make up your mind here what it is.
Little over an hour later, to promote the article, the AP tweeted from its corporate account the following anti-abortion group released video showing Planned Parenthood official discussing disposition of fetal remains.
So the AP has decided to describe what's going on here as the disposition of fetal remains.
And that's how the low information voter is hearing about the story.
In the meantime, another obscene profit break here on the EIB network.
We will be back in just a moment.
Stay with us.
Don't go away.
You know, we could change the name from unviable tissue mass to undocumented fetal remains.
Well, I know it's a baby, but see, that will make people mad.
By the folks, I w I just want to warn you.
My guess is that if we get the phone calls on this, you are going to be shocked at the number of people angry at me and anybody else who interprets the story the way I did.
Oh, you are getting people like that.
Yeah.
Here I am.
All right, okay.
So Snerdley, I I knew this is going to happen.
You did this is the point.
This isn't going to move anybody.
Uh Snerdley's getting calls, he said, primarily from New York, and they they spew and shout and then they hang up.
And they claim I'm lying that they've read about this in the New York Times and this is not at all what happened.
Which is typical.
So there's a statement that's been put out by the people that made the video.
People who made the video are the Center for Medical Progress.
They've responded to Planned Parenthood's statement thus.
Planned Parenthood makes two key admissions in their statement today.
Number one, aborted fetal parts are harvested at their clinics.
They admit this.
And number two, money is exchanged in connection with this.
Planned Parenthood also tells several lies.
One, that proper consent is obtained from patients, which of course is my point.
I don't know how there can be proper or improper or any consent from the patients here.
Number two, they also planned parenthood does not make money off the body parts.
They lied about that because they sell them for 30 to 100 bucks.
Three, that everything's legal, and the harvesting and sale of human body parts is not legal.
The Center for Medical Progress has obtained an advertisement to Planned Parenthood Clinics from STEM Express LLC, one of the major purchases of Planned Parenthood's aborted fetal tissue.
This flyer advertises four different times the financial benefit that Planned Parenthood Clinics can receive from supplying fetal tissue.
With the words, quote, financially profitable, financial profits, financial benefit to your clinic, fiscal growth of your own clinic.
The advertisement carries an endorsement from Planned Parenthood Medical Director, Dr. Dorothy Ferguson.
So Planned Parenthood is advertising this to their other clinics, and they're advertising how it is profitable.
It is financial it's an advertising flyer like a pamphlet.
And the Center for Medical Progress has seen it.
They've got it.
They've obtained it.
The Flyer advertises four different times and ways the financial benefit that clinics can receive from the harvesting of body parts from aborted fetuses, babies.
Financially profitable, financial profits, financial benefits of your clinic, fiscal growth of your own clinic.
So now we up at that point in time again where we must take another break.
I've got people lined up who do want to talk about this.
And an interesting call, not related to this from Coronado, California.
I hope the person holds on.
We'll get to it pretty quickly here.
You hang in there, be tough, and we'll be back.
Do not go.
Wait till you hear, by the way, John Kerry explaining the real reason we have a deal with Iran.
Oh, yeah, there's lots of other stuff going on here today, folks.
We barely scratched the surface.
I just held this one over from yesterday just to see what kind of coverage it would get today.
Not surprised.
Be right back.
