As we mentioned earlier in the program,
the Center for Medical Progress's
explosive undercover video graphically
describes late-term abortion. David
Daleiden, the man who captured that
undercover video, joins us now from our
studio in Orange County California. David,
thank you so much for joining us. Lauren
it's great to be back on with you. Tell
me why you are releasing this new video
today? What do you hope to accomplish?
Well I think that the public and the
public's elected representatives need to
be reminded of the truly barbaric nature
of Planned Parenthood's late term
abortion business - baby body parts
selling business - and the public debate
at this really critical time when we're
on the cusp of stopping forcing
taxpayers to subsidize the biggest
monster abortion business in the country.
That public debate needs to be fully
informed and so video tapes like this
we're going to continue releasing in the
coming weeks here. As you were listening
to Dr. Taylor talking about late term
abortion, what was going through your
mind? You know I have to say that that
was that conversation at a very swanky
Planned Parenthood networking reception
was one of the most disturbing
conversations that we had early on
during the course of the investigative
project. When she said that she feels it
in her biceps when she's doing a
dismemberment abortion with forceps on a
late-term baby, I almost dropped my wine
when I heard that, and I'd already heard
a lot of stuff at that point, but that
was that was shocking to me. The other
piece of that was that it seems at least
you're saying in your press release that you believe that she's committed
infanticide. Do you have any proof of
that? Well I think it I think it's really
I think it should be troubling to
everyone and I think it's prima facie
evidence for law enforcement when you
ask a late-term abortion doctor who does
procedures on five and six month old
healthy viable children, you ask her 'is
there a standard procedure for verifying
the signs of life in the baby that comes
out in one piece' which is what you're
supposed
under the law and her response is to
laugh and say you know the key is you
need to pay attention to who else is in
the room with you right when that
happens that's not so that those aren't
the words of someone who's following the
law, those are the words of someone who's
covering up something that's really
really grave and it could be infanticide.
Now do you believe that it's coincidence
that today that you were charged in
California with 15 felonies - did you know
those felonies were those charges were
coming? No, you know the I mean the
charges are really bogus in a lot of
ways because you know the charges are
all based on the California recording
law which is not triggered and isn't an
issue so long as the conversations that
are being taped our public conversations
happening out in the open in a public
area which every last video tape that's
referenced in the Attorney General's
complaint was. So we weren't expecting
them to file such a really such a weak
case a case that probably won't survive
a couple of motions to dismiss but I do
think in a broad sense I don't think
it's a coincidence that when Planned
Parenthood really has their head on the
chopping block here with the
new administration with a pro-life
Congress that has the votes and can
defund them pretty imminently here with
the reconciliation bill that a lot of
people are talking about. I don't think
it's a coincidence that Planned
Parenthood is very very desperate right
now and they're going to be lashing out
in any direction that they can and in
every direction that they can because
they are faced with imminent extinction.
After the last round of videos were
released there was a house select
committee put together and they found
some of those Planned Parenthood
affiliates they sent those cases to the
FBI and to the Department of Justice for
criminal prosecution - is that your goal,
criminal prosecution? Absolutely. Planned
Parenthood is not above the law. The
kinds of atrocities against humanity
that they have been committing in their
late term abortion and baby parts
business over the past decade and longer
are horrific. Americans are shocked and
horrified by it. We don't want our tax
dollars to contribute to something like
that
and Planned Parenthood needs to be held
accountable to the law like any other
organization. The fact that they have
been selling baby body parts for profit
needs to be prosecuted on a federal
level to the full extent of the law. - But
they said -
The evidence is all there in
the very good investigative work done
over the past year by the
House Select investigative panel and in
over 2,000 page report with exhibits and
documentation and also the report by the
Senate Judiciary Committee. But I think
other people would say that there is not
that proof yet and there have been no
charges and I think that you're leading
the fight in that battle, but wouldn't
you agree that you're not quite there
yet? No we won't be there yet. Justice
won't be served until Planned Parenthood
is indicted for their criminal role in
the harvesting and trafficking of baby
body parts for profit, for the way that
they have commodified the little
hearts and lungs and livers and brains
of our unborn brothers and sisters. The
evidence is there, the congressional
investigations got the contracts with
companies like Stem Express and Advanced
Bioscience Resources, they got the
invoices - Now this is very interesting,
they haven't released the invoices so
that's something that they ought to do
because the public has a right to know -
the actual invoices that Planned
Parenthood would fill out and send to
their business partners like Stem
Express charging per body part, per baby
body part that was harvested. Those
documents would be the foundation of the
federal criminal case against Planned
Parenthood and they need to come to
light for all the world to see. Before I
let you go David, there have been charges -
you have been accused of doctoring
videos the videos that you
released in 2015 and I want you to go
on the record and say on this case did
you or did you not doctor those videos? I
will go on the record. The video camera
doesn't lie and if Planned Parenthood is
going to try to evade any kind of public
scrutiny by relying on that tired old
talking point then the challenge to
Planned Parenthood today is if there's
anything that's inaccurate about my
videotapes if they want to try to say
that these are not Planned Parenthood
doctors, these are not Planned Parenthood
executives who are featured on those
tapes then let the
individuals come forward. Put their
senior director of medical services
Deborah Nucatola on CNN. Put them on
Fox News. Put them out in public. Let them
come forward and say 'That is not my face,
that is not my image, that is not my
voice.' Let them say that those are not
their words captured on video camera for
all of history to see, saying these
things that the public is so horrified
about and that we've all been so shocked
by. Planned Parenthood can't prove that.
The video camera doesn't lie, these are
their own people, their own leadership in
their own words and they need to be held
accountable for it. David Daleiden,
Project Lead for the Center for Medical
Progress, thank you so much for joining
us. Thanks Lauren
