Why does Stu think Planned Parenthood should be shut down?

There are many, many reasons to shut down Planned Parenthood. First and foremost would be they facilitate the murder of hundreds of thousands of unborn babies each year. They also were caught helping sex slaves figure out how to cheat on taxes. Selling body parts of aborted babies was another strike against.

TheBlaze reports:

A video, titled, “Planned Parenthood Uses Partial-Birth Abortions to Sell Baby Parts,” from the Center for Medical Progress, a group concerned with medical ethics, features comments from Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s senior director of medical services, allegedly showing her describing how some doctors carefully conduct abortions that leave fetal body parts in tact.

Watch the shocking video below, and scroll down for a transcript of the reaction from Tuesday's radio show.

Below is a rush transcript of this segment, it may contain errors:

PAT: Incredible story with Planned Parenthood. I mean, we know that's an evil organization to begin with, founded by an evil person, Margaret Sanger. Whose goal was to eliminate minorities, especially blacks. Look it up. If you don't know. It's a story. It's true. She was a progressive.

And she was not a good person. And Hillary Clinton is a big, big fan of Margaret Sanger.

STU: Uh-huh.

PAT: And we'll have to play this some other time. But I love what she said when she was asked about that. You know, despite the fact that Margaret Sanger had these genocidal tendencies, how are you such a big fan of her? And she said, well, I'm a fan of Thomas Jefferson too who owned slaves. That's not everything she did. Oh, okay. All right. Good comparison too. Good analogy.

STU: Cooked a good omelet too. He's kind of known for his other work.

PAT: Volkswagen. Good things.

STU: It's amazing. It's not just Hillary, she's a progressive hero. And, you know, it's a right of religious fervor basically at this point to -- if anyone tries to --

PAT: And why? Have you ever wondered why the abortion thing is so critical to them? Why removing babies from the womb is so important to them? There's money in it. There's just a ton of money in it. Planned Parenthood makes a lot of money with it.

STU: Yeah.

PAT: Democrats make a lot of money from Planned Parenthood. There's just money. Follow the trail of the cash. And I think you might have a clue as to what's going on.

STU: And how do you make money off of abortions? Obviously, number one. You're charging the person to do them. You've got -- all sorts of different funding that comes from not only charities, but governmental institutions.

PAT: Yeah, including federal funding now.

STU: Which they, of course, said would never happen. But beyond that, you get a nice collection of body parts of dead fetuses that you can sell.

PAT: Which is great news we're finding out now. I didn't even -- I mean, I wouldn't have even -- would you have thought to guess that that part was going on? That they were selling body parts of aborted fetuses.

STU: It certainly doesn't shock me. I'm not shocked by anything that these people will do. To see the video. The video is done -- excuse me -- Center for Medical Progress and live action news. It's one of these behind the scenes undercover videos. And you have to see the video. The way they're discussing selling these body parts, including, by the way, in the video, you can see an online order form to order a certain amount of livers. A certain amount of hearts.

And to see her discuss this while just nibbling away at a delicious salad at a restaurant, as if it's something you discuss in polite company is quite amazing.

PAT: So these would have to be pretty developed babies.

STU: Yeah.

PAT: To be harvesting organs to sell to people?

STU: I'll give you this quote. I don't think you have this in your audio. Because it's blatantly. She describes partial birth abortion which is illegal. Illegal. You can't do it. This is how she gets around that. She says the federal partial birth abortion plan is a law and laws are up to interpretation. So if I say on day one I do not intend to do this, what ultimately happens doesn't matter. Now, you say, okay, that's a person blatantly going around the law. I mean, she's admitting it on camera. This is not just some employee. Because we've seen it before, where it's some employee working at a center and she's doing something blatantly illegal.

The woman who is saying this is the Senior Director for Medical Services at Planned Parenthood. This is not some low-level person. This is the Senior Director for Medical Services. She is describing in-depth about how --

PAT: At the Planned Parenthood in Bemidji, Minnesota? Like, just the overall Planned Parenthood?

STU: Yeah, a top Planned Parenthood executive. Senior Director for Medical Services is not nobody. She's describing -- she goes into great depth through the videos. We'll go through audio in a second. About how when they kill the child, they crush the head and they'll crush other parts of the body. But they try to avoid the organs because they can sell those. And they go through all this -- all of this rigamarole to make sure that they don't harm those precious organs that could bring in 30 to $100 per specimen.

PAT: Thirty to $100. That's it?

STU: Uh-huh. They talk about cutting off legs and sending them to people. They talk about -- they talk about how much people really want liver. Apparently it's a hot item. Hot commodity on this market. By the way, selling body parts of fetuses is also blatantly illegal. In any rational country. Assuming this video checks out. Which it has been released today. So it's very early on. But no one is denying it's her saying these things. Assuming that this is true. This should shut down the entire organization.

PAT: It should. It won't.

STU: It is -- when you create an online order form. This is not a whimsical person saying, maybe we could sell a couple of these things. You have an online form for illegal activity. They shut down -- what was it -- Silk Road? They shut down these things that sell drugs on the internet. You're selling body parts on the internet. This entire organization should be shut down if this is accurate.

JEFFY: And I got news for you. When you start out the day saying, gee, I'm not going to do that, but you still mean to do it, uh, the police still arrest you.

STU: Yeah. You should know that, Jeffy, better than anybody.

But if you say, look, as long as we said we didn't mean to do a partial birth abortion, but then when it happens, we do one so we can keep the organs. Oopsy. That's the sort of thing that is difficult to prove, unless you have someone, I don't know, who is the Senior Director for Medical Services admitting it on camera.

PAT: Wow.

STU: Should we play some of these clips? It's pretty amazing.

PAT: Yeah.

VOICE: We'll give person specific nodes. An essay. I was like, wow. I didn't even know. Good for them. Yesterday was the first time she said people wanted lungs.

STU: There we go. So she says a lot of people want different parts for different nodes. Yesterday was the first time they asked us for lungs. Wanted some lungs. We sold them lungs.

PAT: Are these --

JEFFY: Who is buying?

PAT: Yeah, is this for implant?

STU: I think medical testing.

PAT: Because you can't take a liver from a baby that's unborn and implant it in a human being. Right? And keep them alive with it, I would think. So it's for testing. I guess research.

STU: Research and whatever else. Who knows. The reason she's telling people this is she believes they're buyers.

PAT: And Glenn asks this question all the time, who have we become? If we tolerate this, if we put up with this, if we don't stand against it, who are we?

JEFFY: We have people shutting down facilities because they have monkeys caged up to test.

PAT: Yeah. You're spraying hair spray in their eyes. Or you get shampoo in their face.

JEFFY: But this is okay? No.

PAT: Of an animal, of a monkey or a rat, and we're shutting down facilities. Yeah, but this is okay, with human beings. Unbelievable.

VOICE: Yeah, liver. Yeah, liver is huge.

VOICE: That's simple. I mean, that's easy. I don't know what they're doing with it. I guess they want muscle.

VOICE: Yeah, a dime a dozen.

PAT: So what essentially was said there. Could you tell?

STU: Yeah. It's livers. People -- livers are the hot thing on the market. And I think that's when he says they're dime a dozen. That's the buyer kind of just egging the whole thing -- at that point, he's just sort of echoing what she's saying. She's flippant. She has a bite of her salad on her fork. She's waving her hands back and forth.

PAT: So they're just at a restaurant, talking about this?

STU: That's all that room noise you hear. And why it's difficult to hear. They transcribe it on the video. I'll post this on StuFacebook.com. Go to my Facebook page. We'll post it in just a second. You have to watch this. This is eight or nine minutes the whole thing. You'll get the point before that. But just to get -- it's worth watching the whole nine minutes. This is a huge organization that Democrats support, that is in the public domain all the time for federal funding. And that are selling livers on the -- on the -- on online order forms. Blatantly against the law. Skirting abortion law. Admitting it on camera with top level executives. This should be the biggest story in the country. Obviously the Iran thing will be big today. But this should be the biggest story in the country. This is a huge deal. Will the media pick up on it at all?

PAT: Here's more.

VOICE: How much of a difference can it actually make if you know what's expected or what we need?

VOICE: It makes a huge difference. I would say a lot of people want liver.

STU: A lot of people want liver.

VOICE: And for that reason, less providers (inaudible).

STU: Okay. Stop for a second. So he's saying, like, what parts can I get? Essentially, the buyer. And she's responding, well, if I know what you want, we can take certain procedures, certain measures to make sure we protect it. So, you know, they will use the ultrasound that they don't want to make anyone have before they abort the child. They will utilize that to make sure they're crushing other parts of the body to kill the child so that they don't crush the liver so they can sell the liver. She's talking about it basically that flippantly, as you can hear. It's hard to pick up. But you can get her tone of voice as she's saying it.

PAT: And they don't want to do the ultrasound. Because 90 percent of women that see the ultrasound don't want to go through with the abortion because they understand what's inside them and it's not just their body at that point, and they know that.

STU: Right. Again, the whole argument of the abortion thing in the first place is that this is a meaningless clump of cells. But, apparently, that meaningless clump of cells has value on the open market, so therefore it's not so meaningless anymore.

PAT: Wow.

VOICE: Forceps. (inaudible) Of the procedures. Calvaria. Calvaria, the head is --

STU: She's talking about the head. She's talking about the calvaria, which is the head. And she's discussing about how they'll reverse the body to be born feet first so that they can get this procedure done, get the organs and still crush the head inside.

PAT: In a partial birth abortion.

STU: Which is blatantly illegal. Which she goes on to admit that she can't do unless she acts like she didn't mean to do it. Like if you go down the road and something goes wrong, you can still theoretically do this under the law, but with the intent in advance, you certainly can't. It's a federal crime.

VOICE: Yeah. Most of the other stuff can come out intact. It's very rare that they have that effect (inaudible).

VOICE: To bring the body cavity out intact and all that?

VOICE: Yeah. Exactly. Then you kind of (inaudible).

STU: So basically. You can't pick up any of that. It's too hard to hear. She's saying, you can get the rest of the body intact. It's worth hearing with the audio, so you know this stuff exists. We're not making this stuff up. She says, at one point, we've been good at getting the heart, lung, and liver because we know, well, we're not going to crush that part. I'm basically going to crush below. I'm going to crush above and see if I can get it all intact.

This is a human body. A live person she is talking about this way.

She goes on to, you know, talk about, you know, the procedures they go through. Specific procedures that they go through to avoid damaging these organs that they can sell. And they have screen shots of the online order form. This --

PAT: It's soul crushing.

STU: It's soul crushing. It's one thing to talk about a bad organization that could potentially hopefully get shut down or at the very at least have trouble because of this. What we're talking about is human people.

PAT: It will be interesting to see if this goes anywhere. It will be interesting to see if anyone talks about this today.

STU: Can there be anymore of an open-and-shut case? This is not one of those things where you're guessing at their intent. She's telling you.

PAT: No. And like you said, it's not some janitor at Planned Parenthood that they caught on an open mic. This is a top-level executive.

STU: Because some of the videos you've seen, oh, well, they're registering voters. Some person registering voters making $9 an hour tells you to break the law. That's one thing. This is one of the executive-level people at Planned Parenthood saying it's their procedure to intentionally avoid partial abortion law.

VP debate recap: A Vance victory

Bloomberg / Contributor | Getty Images

This might have been the most consequential VP debate in recent memory.

For those of you who missed the debate, it was a decisive victory for J.D. Vance and the Trump-Vance team as a whole. Vance presented a calm, collected, and considerate side of the Republican party that compliments Trump and helps to make their platform more palatable. Meanwhile, Tim Walz had a lackluster, though certainly not catastrophic, night. He had a few embarrassing gaffes and came across as overly nervous, but like Vance, kept it civil.

Both VP candidates entered the stage as relative unknowns to most Americans, and by the end, both men had given an accurate representation of their characters. Here is a brief recap just in case you missed the debate:

J.D. Vance looked great

Vance came out of the gate swinging, with a stellar opening statement that helped set the stage for the rest of the debate. He delivered a concise yet compelling recap of his life, which framed him as everything Walz claims to be: a relatable veteran from humble beginnings who earned his position through hard work and service. He then went on to deliver a clear and palatable defense of Trump's platform and mission while cooly drawing attention to the failures of the Biden-Harris administration.

Overall, J.D. Vance looked incredibly presidential. He presented himself not just as a capable vice president, but as a strong successor to Trump and as a valid replacement if anything should happen to the former president between now and the end of his hypothetical second term. Vance also successfully dispelled the notion that he is "weird" as Walz called him, and if anyone looked strange during the debate, it certainly wasnot Vance.

Tim Walz's gaffes

While Tim Walz certainly didn't have an awful night, he did not stack up well against Vance. Walz had a major gaffe around halfway through the debate when asked to explain the change in his position on assault weapon bans. Walz then claimed that he had befriended school shooters during his time in office. While that was clearly not the intention of what he was saying, it was embarrassing nonetheless.

Another weak moment was when the moderators asked Walz to explain a claim he had made regarding being in Hong Kong during the infamous Tiananmen Square protest in 1989, which has since been proven false. Walz gave a long-winded, rambling answer about taking students to visit China and how Trump should have joined in on those trips, before being called out by the moderator for dodging the question.

Vance fact-checked the fact-checkers

One of the conditions of the CBS debate was that the moderators would not fact-check the debaters live, but instead rely on after-the-matter fact-checking. But, CBS couldn't keep to its own rules. While Vance was describing the migrant crisis that has swelled during the Biden-Harris administration, one of the CBS moderators, Margaret Brennan, chimed in with a "fact check." She claimed that the Haitian migrants in Ohio have legal status, to which Vance clapped back by calling Brennan out for breaking the rules of the debate, then proceeded to correct her, explaining that they only had legal status due to overreach by the Biden-Harris administration.

Dockworker strike: Everything you need to know

Anadolu / Contributor | Getty Images

At midnight on September 30th, dockworkers across the East Coast went on strike, effectively cutting the country's import and export capabilities in half.

Don't go out and panic buy a pallet of toilet paper and instant ramen just yet. It's going to take some time for the full effects of the strike to be felt and hopefully, the strike will be good and over by then. But there are no guarantees, and this election cycle could get significantly more insane as we draw near to the election. And even if the strike is settled quickly, it shows growing cracks in our infrastructure and industrial capacity that needs to be addressed if America wants to maintain its global dominance.

Here is everything you need to know about the dockworker strike:

What do the dockworkers want?

Anadolu / Contributor | Getty Images

As with most strikes, pay is the driving factor behind this situation the country now finds itself in. The longshoremen want more pay, and with rising inflation who can blame them? After all, working the docks is hard and dangerous business, and fair compensation only seems... fair. But when you compare the wage of a dockworker, which is around $100,000 to $200,00 a year to the average income in America of $56,000, suddenly they seem significantly less sympathetic.

How much money are they asking for? For most Americans, a three percent raise is considered high, but the unions are asking up to 15 percent, depending on location. On top of that, they are asking for a 77 percent raise over the next six years. The West Coast dock workers recently made off with a 36 percent raise and were considered lucky. These increases in costs are just going to be transferred to the end consumer, and we'll likely see a jump in prices if these terms are accepted.

The other major ticket item is protection against automation. Autonomous ports are quickly becoming a reality, with major ports in China that are capable of handling vast amounts of cargo being run by a single office, not an army of dock workers. Naturally, the longshoremen are concerned that their jobs are at risk of being replaced by machines that can work harder, longer, for cheaper, and without risk of injury.

How will it affect Americans?

Don't panic yet!

It is going to take some time for consumers to feel the effects of the strike and it is possible that a resolution could happen at any time.

Week one should be pretty much business as usual. It might be a good idea to stock up on fruit and other perishables, but there is no need to go COVID-lockdown-crazy yet.

Week two is when you'll first start feeling the pinch. Fresh fruits and veggies will become scarce, along with other imported goods like shoes, toys, and TVs. Prices will start to creep up as the shelves will start to look a little sparse. The supply of tools, lumber, and other hardware materials will also begin to dry up.

By week three, the cracks in the system will really start to show. Entire industries will begin to slow down, or even stop. Factory workers will get furloughed and sent home without pay. Stores will have to ration items, prices will be sky-high, and online orders will come to a standstill. At this point, the strike will have escalated into a full-blown crisis, and even if it was resolved immediately, it would still take weeks to restore everything to working order.

At the four-week mark, the situation will have developed into a national security crisis, and as Glenn describes, a poly-crisis. Small business will be closing their doors, entire brands will be out of stock, and everything that remains will be so expensive it is unaffordable. By this point, the holiday season will be drawing near and there will be a rush on any sort of gift or decor items left. At this point, irreparable damage to our economy will have occurred and it will be months if not years before it can be mended.

While that sounds bleak, with the election just around the corner, it seems unlikely that the Biden-Harris administration will let it get that bad. That being said, their administration has not been characterized by good decision-making and reasonable policy, so there are no guarantees.

What can be done?

The Washington Post / Contributor | Getty Images

The big question is "Why hasn't Biden already done something?"

President Biden, who ran on the image of a blue-collar, union-worker, has been uncharacteristically absent from the issue. Despite his earlier involvement in a train strike, Biden has declared that involvement in union fights is not a presidential issue unless it getsreally bad.

So where's the line? At what point will he step in? He has to understand that an economic crisis right before the election will reflect poorly on Kamala.

POLL: Can the VP debate affect the election?

DOMINIC GWINN / Contributor, Dia Dipasupil / Staff | Getty Images

The first (and likely only) Vice President debate will be held on CBS News on Tuesday, October 1st.

The debate takes place at 9 p.m. Eastern Time and will be the first time we see J.D. Vance and Tim Walz face off in person. Typically, the VP debate is little more than a formality, and rarely does it affect the election in any significant way. But this is no ordinary election. The stakes are higher than they have been in years, and Trump and Harris are still in a razor-thin race, according to the polls. Both Vance and Walz are relative newcomers to the national stage and still have room to make an impression on the American people, and with the race as tight as it is, that might make all the difference.

So what do you think? Can this VP debate make an impact on the election? Are you going to tune in? And what sort of questions and issues need to be brought up? Let us know in the poll below:

Will this VP debate be important in the overall election?

Are you going to watch the VP debate?

Should the debaters be asked about the Biden-Harris administration's failing economy?

Should the debaters be asked about climate change and energy policy?

Should the debaters be asked about the rise of globalism?
