Despite the MSM’s assertions that the videos have been “debunked”, the investigation continues. And the whistle blowers who’ve come forward are telling some interesting tales.
“Remember the videos from the Center for Medical Progress and the thriving market in fetal organs it exposed? The media has insisted ever since that the videos have been “debunked,” but the House investigation into these markets has proceeded for the last eight months. Energy and Commerce chair Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) joined me just a few minutes ago on Facebook Live between votes on Capitol Hill, and tells me in this exclusive* interview that the videos have proven to provide important information. Most interestingly, CMP’s publication of the videos last summer and the select investigative panel’s follow-up has produced a significant response from whistleblowers that tend to corroborate CMP’s allegations of profit-driven organ sales:
The panel’s website has a form for whistleblowers to use — and use it they have, according to Blackburn. The panel has already used some information to pass along to the Inspector General of HHS for another potential investigation. In an April hearing, the committee heard testimony from three former Justice prosecutors — from administrations of both parties, according to Blackburn — who testified that Congress needs to continue its investigation:
Democrats argued that no state has brought charges against Planned Parenthood or any other provider despite issues raised in the explosive videos, but the three prosecutors said a federal investigation is still warranted.
“Based on my review of the exhibits, a competent, ethical federal prosecutor could establish probable cause that both the abortion clinics and the procurement business violated the statute, aided and abetted one another in violating the statute, and likely conspired together to violate the statute,” said Brian P. Lennon, a former federal prosecutor in Michigan and Virginia.
He cited exhibits, including billing information, consent forms and brochures, unearthed in a majority staff investigation.
Kenneth W. Sukhia, former U.S. attorney for North Florida, said that the evidence in the exhibits “justifies a thorough investigation.”
“Accounting and marketing materials from the fetal tissue procurement business demonstrate beyond question that there is more than sufficient cause to support a full investigation by federal authorities to determine if such practices violate the felony provisions of [the statute],” Mr. Sukhia said.”
“According to Fox News, Omar Mateen, the jihadist who carried out the mass-murder attack at a gay nightclub in Florida this weekend, was a student of Marcus Robertson, an Orlando-based radical Muslim who once served as a bodyguard to Omar Abdel Rahman — the notorious “Blind Sheikh” whom I prosecuted for terrorism crimes in the early to mid 1990s.
In Robertson’s case, it is reported that he agreed to work for the government, gathering intelligence both overseas and in the United States. According to Fox, however, he was expelled from the covert informant program in early 2007 after attacking his CIA handler in Africa. By 2008, he surfaced in Orlando, and became known by his Muslim name, Abu Taubah. The Investigative Project on Terrorism reported in 2012 that Robertson was the imam at the al-Ihsaan mosque (formerly, the Islamic Center of Orlando). He also ran an online Muslim education enterprise, known for years as the “Fundamental Islamic Knowledge Seminary” (FIKS) — although the name was recently changed to the “Timbuktu Seminary.” Robertson’s seminary has apparently been a springboard for lecturing gigs at universities in the United States and overseas.”
“Omar Mateen, the terrorist who killed 49 people and wounded over 50 others at a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend, had enrolled in Robertson’s seminary. At least one other student of Robertson’s has been convicted (along with Robertson) in a case that had terrorism implications. Robertson’s lectures are said to include a staple of sharia: the condemnation of homosexuals — whom Robertson refers to as “devil worshipers.” The government suspects — with abundant reason, it appears — that Robertson’s prominence in the mosque, the online seminary, and the teaching circuit have given him ample opportunity to radicalize young Muslim men: not only indoctrinating them in sharia-supremacist ideology but also possibly providing them with paramilitary training.”
“If we want to play more ‘Six Degrees of Separation’, we could note that Ismaiiyl Brinsley, the Black Lives Matter/Islamist assassin of two NYPD officers in December went to the Masjid at-Taqwa (referred to as ‘Taqua’ in the article), as we reported after the killings:”

If Google, Facebook, and Twitter are sharing the profits from ads run on jihadist pages and postings on their venue, are they not accessories for allowing it and making money off it?
“The father of the only American killed in the November terrorist attacks on Paris is suing Twitter, Facebook and Google because members of ISIS use them, according to court documents.
The suit, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court for Northern California by the father of Nohemi Gonzalez, seeks damages to be determined at a jury trial.
The suit is “not about money,” the family’s attorney, Keith Altman, told NBC News. “Google shares the profits with ISIS and these extremist groups. By their terms of service, in order to you on YouTube (a Google subsidiary), you have to submit your articles for monetization to Google. Then they start putting ads on our pages and sharing revenue with you.””
“The suit claims Twitter, Facebook and Google — through its YouTube service — provided “material support” to ISIS without which “the explosive growth of ISIS over the last few years into the most-feared terrorist group in the world would not have been possible.”
“This material support has been instrumental to the rise of ISIS and has enabled it to carry out numerous terrorist attacks, including the Nov. 13, 2015, attacks in Paris where more than 125 were killed, including Nohemi Gonzalez,” the suit claims.”

“University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Professor Jack Stauder says his political and ideological conversion away from socialism and Marxism occurred when he actually witnessed these systems in action.
After traveling to more than 110 countries to pursue various forms of research, notably cultural anthropology, Stauder described his conversion from Marxism as a process of disillusionment.
“I gradually became disenchanted with Marxism by visiting many of the countries that had tried to shape their societies to conform to its doctrines. I was disillusioned by the realities I saw in … socialist countries – the USSR, Eastern Europe, China, Cuba, etc,” Stauder told The College Fix via email.
“I came to recognize that socialism doesn’t work, and that its ‘revolutionary’ imposition inevitably leads to cruelty, injustice and the loss of freedom,” the professor continued.
“I could see the same pattern in the many failed left-wing revolutions of Latin America and elsewhere. By combining actual travel with the historical study of socialism and revolution, I succeeded in disabusing myself of the utopian notions that fatally attract people to leftist ideas.””
