THREAD: 1⃣Read the sworn legal declaration of the former Orange County District Attorney detailing how CMP's reporting helped his office stop criminal trafficking of aborted fetuses. @daviddaleiden @OCDATony #dontjailjournalists #dropthecharges

@OCDATony

2⃣ CMP journalists submit undercover footage to @OCDATony's office and @daviddaleiden files complaint against baby parts companies, @DaVinciBio and DV Biologics. #dontjailjournalists #dropthecharges

3⃣ The Orange County DA's office reviews evidence and conducts an investigation, uncovering violent crimes committed by the baby parts companies including infanticide, partial birth abortions, felony battery, and the illegal sales of fetal tissues and organs. #dontjailjournalists

@OCDATony

4⃣The Orange County DA's office led by @OCDATony brings civil action against baby parts companies, forcing them to admit guilt and shut down. #dontjailjournalists #dropthecharges

@OCDATony

5⃣The Hon. Tony Rackauckas (@OCDATony) was clear in his legal declaration that CMP's investigative journalism was key to uncovering violent crimes. #dontjailjournalists #dropthecharges

@OCDATony

6⃣Former Orange County District Attorney, Hon. Tony Rackauckas (@OCDATony), ends his legal declaration commending the work of @daviddaleiden and CMP saying that our "investigative journalism provided a great public service." #dontjailjournalists #dropthecharges

@daviddaleiden

7⃣ Yet the CA AG is trying to baselessly prosecute journalist @daviddaleiden and CMP staff despite the release of this legal declaration that proves CMP's video recordings are protected under California PC 633.5, which permits recording when gathering evidence of violent crimes.

@PPFA

1⃣ Seven years ago today, CMP's first undercover video release caught Planned Parenthood (@PPFA) selling aborted baby body parts. The impact of the undercover videos is still being felt today. Check out these top 7 victories that have happened since our groundbreaking reporting.

@PPFA

2⃣The undercover footage caught @PPFA's highest level leadership using criminal partial-birth abortions to deliver live babies for harvesting, selling the fetuses & body parts on a quid pro quo basis totally disconnected from legal reimbursement from the highest national levels.

@PPFA

3⃣TX & LA defunded @PPFA due to the sale of aborted fetuses on CMP's videos @PPGulfCoast. The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the video as evidence of "violations of medical ethics & standards" disqualifying @PPFA from taxpayer subsidies. @PPFA did not contest the violations.

Problem: Abortion generally destroys the fetus, so how do you harvest usable body parts for sale and experimentation?

Solution: Partial-birth abortions keep the fetus intact and alive at the time of extraction. But they are also a federal crime. 🚨 (1/7)

Planned Parenthood has its abortion doctors check a box on an "intent statement" to "document" that they do not "intend" to do a partial-birth abortion.

After that, in the words of the top abortion doctor, "What ultimately happens doesn't matter." (2/7)

Who would have thought--according to Planned Parenthood, you can rob a bank, so long as you carry a form with a checkbox "documenting" you have no "intentions" of bankrobbing.

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals was not impressed with Planned Parenthood's legal reasoning: (3/7)

@PPFA

While under investigation, @PPFA lied to Congress and said @PPGulfCoast had "rebuffed" a proposal to sell fetal livers for $750 each.

But under oath, @PPGulfCoast contradicted @PPFA and testified they "wanted to move forward with it".

▶️ WATCH here:

🛑 42 U.S. Code 289g-2 broadly prohibits selling fetal tissue for any amount of money, or "valuable consideration."

"Valuable consideration" means the Quid Pro Quo in an exchange. It's not strictly about profit or reimbursement, it's about what the transaction is incentivizing:

@PPMarMonte

🚨 Newly unsealed emails from @PPMarMonte show how they switched from selling body parts to Advanced Bioscience Resources and started selling to @StemExpress instead, because StemExpress offered to come to more clinics more often to harvest specimens, meaning larger payments. 💔
