Planned Parenthood is the top abortion provider in the United States, and has reported a 20% increase in abortions committed by its facilities over the past decade alone. At the same time, the corporation’s own reports reveal many of its actual health care services have been in decline, even as taxpayer funding to the abortion organization has skyrocketed to the highest amounts on record.

In a recent op-ed published by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy indicated that defunding Planned Parenthood might be on their radar of the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. A previous Live Action News analysis found that Planned Parenthood’s female clientele represented just 2 percent of the U.S. female population of reproductive age — indicating that if Planned Parenthood were completely defunded it would not have the devastating impact the eugenics founded organization’s political and media allies have claimed.

In the past decade (from 2012-2013 to 2022-2023), as taxpayer funding to Planned Parenthood rose over 29%, from $540.6 million to nearly $700 million, Planned Parenthood abortions also increased over 20%, from 327,166 to 392,715 — the highest number of abortions reported by the corporation.

According to the Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), an Ontario judge has found 76-year-old pro-life advocate Linda Gibbons not guilty of “criminal mischief to property” for “interfering” with the operations of Toronto Abortion Clinic, formerly known as Morgentaler Clinic.

On December 5, Judge Maria Speyer said there was “no evidence” that Gibbons blocked the abortion facility. “She did not harass, she was not violent. She did not trespass,” said Speyer.

According to reports, Gibbons was on trial for her pro-life efforts, which included holding a pro-life sign outside the Toronto facility where abortions are currently committed up to 19 weeks. Gibbons was within the 50-meter “bubble zone” (also often referred to as a “buffer zone”) around the facility, enacted in 2017 by The Safe Access to Abortion Services Act. She was praying and offering women life-affirming choices for their preborn babies.
