Conservatives and pro-life activists have been critical of Planned Parenthood for decades. So, it’s no surprise that many on the right are hoping President Trump will defund the nation’s largest abortion business. However, it is surprising when Planned Parenthood gets criticism from the left, and especially from the New York Times. Of course, the Times put its best spin on the story, but even they could not hide the ugly truth. The Times conducted an extensive review of “clinic documents and legal filings, as well as interviews with more than 50 current and former Planned Parenthood staff members.” It found examples of women being rushed to hospitals after botched abortions, incorrect procedures being performed, and procedures being performed incorrectly. Many clinics are using old equipment and are in desperate need of repair. In one Nebraska clinic, overflowing sewage caused women to vomit. Planned Parenthood staff complained that they were not trained for the procedures they had to do, that patients were on a “conveyor belt,” and that clinics often ran out of medication and supplies.
