Tuesday, the state of California held its primary in preparation for November’s elections, and Planned Parenthood was thrilled with the results. Why? Because Attorney General Xavier Becerra won. On the surface, this may not seem notable; cheering on pro-abortion politicians is par for the course when it comes to the abortion lobby. But in this case, there are some massive ethical breaches.<\/p>\n

Some may recognize Becerra’s name: he is the attorney general who refused to investigate Planned Parenthood after the Center for Medical Progress<\/a> (CMP) exposed the abortion<\/a> giant’s criminal activities<\/a>. Around the country, CMP found that Planned Parenthood was selling the body parts of babies they aborted. They also were found to be killing preborn babies<\/a> that survived abortions — babies that were born alive.<\/p>\n

But rather than hold Planned Parenthood accountable for its lawbreaking, Becerra went after the Center for Medical Progress<\/a>. He filed 15 charges against investigators David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt, and refused to even investigate the likely criminal activity found in CMP’s videos.<\/p>\n
