Elizabeth Warren says she'll wear Planned Parenthood scarf to her inauguration

FULL story: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/elizabeth-warren-planned-parenthood-inauguration

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has said she will show support for the nation's largest abortion provider during her inauguration if she won the 2020 presidential election.

During a campaign stop on Monday, Warren recalled attending President Trump's inauguration in 2017 while wearing a scarf embroidered with the words "Planned Parenthood."

"I'm going to be wearing that scarf when I'm sworn as president of the United States," she told a crowd in Iowa.

Warren's gesture would offer support for an organization that has become a symbol of perhaps the most polarizing issue in American politics. The organization vociferously fights abortion restrictions and, according to its annual reports, has performed more than 300,000 abortions annually for the past several years.

PP gives reproductive health care to women, which does include abortions, but mostly it is the go-to place for women to get honest health evaluations. To highlight the abortion aspect is to take the focus off the whole thing, and concentrate on (I think) about 3% of what they provide.

Of course, they will highlight PP abortions.

They simply don't care about any other aspects of women's health.

We are simply baby-making machines. If we die or otherwise get sick, that's just fine insofar as they and their supporters are concerned.

Warren is NOT highlighting the abortion aspect. She is honoring PP for ALL its work. Faux Noise is just using this as another slam against her.
