Longtime Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards Dies of Brain Cancer Aged 67

...During her 12 years at the helm of Planned Parenthood, Richards oversaw the performance of millions of abortions, solidifying the organisation as the largest abortion provider in the United States.
She fought against pro-life efforts to protect the unborn, lobbying for expanded access to abortion up until the moment of birth and opposing legislation such as partial-birth abortion bans.
As a result of her efforts, millions of babies who were denied the opportunity of life.
Under her leadership, Planned Parenthood’s reputation was also tarnished by scandals, including allegations of selling foetal body parts for profit, which sparked national outrage and congressional investigations.
Her interest in abortion was partially the result of having had one herself, which she said at the time was an easy decision for her.
“I had an abortion,” Richards wrote back in 2014. “It was the right decision for me and my husband, and it wasn’t a difficult decision.”
Back in November, Joe Biden awarded Richards the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor.
“A leader of utmost character, she has carved an inspiring legacy that endures in her incredible family, the countless lives she has made better, and a Nation seeking the light of equality, justice, and freedom,” Biden declared at the time.
Now she is gone, may Cecile Richards face her creator and be judged accordingly.
