Can you believe it? Even The New York Times: yep, that New York Times... published an investigation calling out Planned Parenthood’s shocking negligence and dark underbelly. In this episode of Trending, Timmerie chats with Dr. Ingrid Skop, an OB-GYN and VP at the Charlotte Lozier Institute, detailing this bombshell report. 

 

Major Red Flags Revealed:

 

Botched Abortions: A woman in New York thought she had an abortion, only to give birth 12 weeks later to a baby who sadly passed away. She’s now suing.

 

Horrific Malpractice: Misplaced IUDs, failed procedures, and even birth control implants causing nerve damage.

 

Sickening Conditions: One clinic had a sewage leak so bad it made patients vomit. 

 

Neglected Patients: Positive STD results never passed on, leading to untreated infections.

 

But... Where’s the Money Going?

 

$700M in taxpayer money.

 

$500M in private donations.

 

$90M in COVID loans.

 

Yet, clinics are underfunded, staff are poorly trained, and turnover rates hit 50% a year. The article makes it clear: Planned Parenthood isn’t about women's health; it’s about abortions and lobbying. 

 

What’s the Real Choice?

 

Dr. Skop mentions that there are 3,000+ pregnancy resource centers across the U.S. offering free services: ultrasounds, counseling, material support, you name it. These centers are powered by people who actually care about women and their babies.

 

Timmerie and Dr. Skop emphasize this: Planned Parenthood markets "choice," but real choice means support, love, and options, not pressure and pain.

 

Bottom Line:

 

Even the NYT couldn’t sweep this under the rug. It’s time we help shine more light on the truth and support real women’s healthcare that values both moms and their babies.
