Since Kamala Harris wrested the Democratic Party\u2019s nomination from the grip of Joe Biden<\/a> late last month, the legacy media machine has been working overtime to rebrand her into an American saviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her marketers have several large hurdles to overcome, not least that the Harris-Walz ticket is the most stridently left-wing outfit ever offered to the American public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To highlight just the contentious issue of abortion, Harris has called for Roe<\/em> to be codified federally, and is the only sitting vice president to have toured an abortion mill<\/a>. For his part, Tim Walz, as Governor of Minnesota, has delivered his state the most radical abortion laws in the US, with foeticide legal at all stages of pregnancy in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.<\/p>\n\n\n

Perhaps no one has more effectively exposed Kamala\u2019s enchantment with abortion as undercover journalist David Daleiden, of the Center for Medical Progress (CMP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Undercover<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2015, Daleiden and a colleague attended the National Abortion Federation\u2019s commercial trade show in San Francisco while posing as laboratory wholesalers. As reported<\/a> by Mercator<\/em> at the time, Daleiden surreptitiously recorded conversations with a series of Planned Parenthood executives at the event who eagerly discussed the harvesting and exchange of fetal body parts. If the footage is to be believed, the babies in question were aborted late-term, with some delivered alive and mostly intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of investigating Planned Parenthood for potential illegalities, Kamala Harris, then Attorney-General of California, launched an investigation against David Daleiden for recording confidential communications without permission, in supposed violation of the state\u2019s Invasion of Privacy Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daleiden faces eight felony charges and possible jail time in California, with his trial date set for December this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Harris now at the top of the Democrat ticket, the Daleiden affair is once again trending on social media, demanding explanation from Kamala\u2019s newsroom fan base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AAP Factcheck came to the rescue late last week, giving a verdict of \u201cfalse\u201d to the claim<\/a> that \u201cKamala Harris prosecuted two journalists for exposing that a US reproductive health organization was selling aborted fetal body parts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As is often the case with such screeds, however, the devil is in the details, and the \u201cfact check\u201d is itself crying out for scrutiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first paragraph describes Daleiden and his colleague not as journalists but as \u201cjournalists\u201d \u2014 scare quotes intact. Bias much?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second paragraph makes the technically correct observation that \u201cmultiple investigations into the nonprofit, Planned Parenthood, found no evidence it sold fetal body parts for profit\u201d. What it fails to disclose is that the fetal tissue trade is a legal grey area in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planned Parenthood has indeed thus far evaded any legal guilt for buying or selling fetal tissue for profit. However, the multi-billion dollar organization luxuriously exploits a legal loophole<\/a> that allows abortion providers to receive \u201creasonable payments\u201d to offset the cost of acquiring, preserving, storing and transporting this valuable commodity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more abortions that are performed and bodies that are preserved, the more money an abortion provider can collect \u2014 and many providers offer bonuses to their technicians that are pegged to these metrics because of the financial windfalls involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of this information, conveniently ignored by AAP Factcheck, is essential in comprehending the giddy glee<\/a> of the women who made Daleiden\u2019s acquaintance at that fateful trade show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What else was AAP Factcheck hiding?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vendetta<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the third paragraph, we read that \u201cwhile Ms. Harris was California\u2019s Attorney-General when a probe was announced into the actions of two anti-abortion activists, she had left the post by the time they were charged\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relevance? Zero. It was Kamala Harris as AG who opened the investigation against Daleiden, and her office\u2019s legal pursuit of the whistleblower persisted until \u2014 and beyond \u2014 her election to the US Senate. Her investigation saw 11 armed agents raid Daleiden\u2019s apartment armed with rifles and K-9 dogs in order to seize all of his undercover footage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider a few other facts that AAP Factcheck failed to disclose, but that were covered<\/a> by the New York Post:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
