Stem Express

Planned Parenthood purveyor of baby parts back online



It didn’t take long for Stem Express, the California-based company caught buying aborted baby parts from Planned Parenthood, to get back in business online. Stem Express, which LifeNews reported offline on Wednesday is back online today--advertising the sale of the same baby livers, Deborah Nucatola so callously went on about during her salad and red wine lunch. Planned Parenthood’s baby livers, advertised by Stem Express, are going for anywhere from $565 to $2433.
Hard to believe they’re back so soon. Perhaps Stem Express principals are emboldened by the nepotism of their Planned Parenthood /Republican Party connections. “Republican House Speaker John Boehner’s top health-care policy adviser is linked — by blood — to a figure at the heart of the Planned Parenthood baby part-selling scandal.” (DailyCaller, July 17, 2015) Make that the same John Boehner who called the video at the heart of the Planned Parenthood baby part-selling scandal that has revolted and sickened countless Americans “disgusting” and who said said he’d probably be ill if he had to watch it.
“Charlotte Ivancic, Boehner’s health policy director, is the older sister of Cate Dyer, the founder of Stem Express, the California-based company caught buying aborted fetus parts from Planned Parenthood. (DailyCaller) “Ivancic, formerly Rep. Paul Ryan’s point person on Medicare reform, advises Boehner on all aspects of health care reform. “Dyer says one of her biggest inspirations is her sister, Charlotte Ivancic,” according to a Sacramento State University alumni magazine. “She too had aspirations of being a doctor, but took a detour and is now an esteemed healthcare law expert.”

Charming. Boehner, Ryan, Obama. Where does the nepotism between the White House and Planned Parenthood end? Or would it be better to ask, where did it begin and how, in decency’s name, can it be stopped? Stem Express is as bold as proverbial brass in advertising baby parts for sale online. This is a screen shot of their catalogued prices:
“The video shows Deborah Nucatola at a lunch with two anti-abortion activists posing as representatives of a biotech firm apparently interested in talking about fetal tissue donations. It shows her munching on what looks like salad and sipping on red wine while discussing fetal lungs and “lower extremities” in hot demand.  (Washington Post, July 14, 2015)
“She says in the video: "We've been very good at getting heart, lung, liver, because we know that, so I'm not gonna crush that part, I'm gonna basically crush below, I'm gonna crush above, and I'm gonna see if I can get it all intact."  
Nucatola, like John Boehner’s health policy director, and Paul Ryan’s point person on Medicare, Charlotte Ivancic, certainly gets around. “Records reveal that Nucatola was employed by a former White House staffer at the time that she was selling aborted baby fetus parts. (DailyCaller, July 17, 2015)
“A staunch political advocate, Nucatola railed against the “right-wing” Bush administration. What’s more, she so enjoyed her work in the abortion industry that she touted a T-shirt celebrating a drug used in the practice. “Nucatola is currently employed at Sexual Health Innovations, founded by former Obama White House staffer Jessica Ladd. Senior Obama administration officials sit on the board of the abortion activist group, including Praveen Basaviah of the President’s Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS and Kyle Bernstein of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The IRS-approved 501(c)3 tech nonprofit is a major Obama administration contractor. “The group works on issues including “abortion access,” according to its website. But the group’s biggest project right now is Callisto, an online “third-party sexual assault reporting system” for girls on college campuses. The property in development counts Google as its investor. “Sexual Health Innovations provides “original websites, apps, and software systems that will advance sexual health and wellbeing.” The group did the design work on The Sex Pact, described in literature as “a CDC-funded initiative to increase condom usage among 14-18 year-old African American males in Washington, DC.” “Sexual health and wellbeing issues especially affect populations with less political power and financial resources, such as youth, racial and gender minorities, women, and GLBTQ communities,” the group has stated. “Their lack of influence, combined with the stigmatization of sexual health topics, makes it hard for them to access high-quality sexual health education, services, and support.”
Planned Parenthood’s president apologized Thursday for comments made by the group’s medical research director in a secretly recorded conversation about collecting fetal body parts, as outrage over the graphic video mounted on Capitol Hill where lawmakers are launching several investigations.   Cecile Richards, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, defended the organization’s practices and maintained the group does not illegally sell fetal tissue. But, in a video statement, she acknowledged one of their staff members spoke in a way that does not “reflect” the “compassionate care that we provide. (FoxNews, July 16, 2015) 
“This is unacceptable, and I personally apologize for the staff member's tone and statements,” Richards said.”
Richards personal apology “for the  staff member’s tone and statements” counts for nothing so long as Planned Parenthood is still selling baby parts to Stem Express which is back online advertising human baby parts for sale. Meanwhile the Planned Parenthood outrage continues.
