In a new video released Wednesday by The Center for Medical Progress<\/a>, an abortionist makes a disturbing revelation about just how much force it takes to dismember a baby.<\/p>\n

In the video, DeShawn Taylor, medical director emerita of Planned Parenthood Arizona, is discussing abortion procedures with citizen-journalists from the Center for Medical Progress\u00a0posing as\u00a0buyers working in the fetal body parts trade.<\/p>\n

Taylor reveals to the men that “dig” \u2013\u00a0digoxin<\/a>, a feticide injected\u00a0into the\u00a0fetal heart, fetal body, or amniotic sac to induce fetal demise\u00a0during some abortion procedures \u2013 saves her from forcefully dismembering the baby, which is\u00a0apparently\u00a0quite\u00a0a workout. She explains that while research shows that using digoxin to kill the fetus does not make the procedure easier for the\u00a0well-trained abortionist, her muscles tell her otherwise.<\/p>\n

“My biceps appreciate when the ‘dig’ works,”\u00a0jokes Taylor.\u00a0She goes on to explain that dismemberment abortions not involving the use of digoxin require “more force.” “I have to hit the gym for this, I need to hit the gym.”<\/p>\n
