Remember Dr. Leana Wan? She was the head of Planned Parenthood until she was booted after less than a year on the job:
Leana Wen was fired in July after leading Planned Parenthood for less than a year.
Wen is now accusing the executives of PP for holding her severance and health insurance “ransom” in exchange for a confidentiality agreement.@KayleeDMcGhee washex.am/2ApOfvj
Anyway, here she is defending Rep. Tulsi Gabbard’s line from last night’s debate that abortions should be “safe, legal and rare”:
I don’t agree with @TulsiGabbard on a lot, but do appreciate that she brought up the third rail for Democrats: that abortion should be “safe, legal, and rare.” We should reduce the need for abortions by investing in prevention.
Was also courageous @TulsiGabbard to bring up nuances. Most Americans hold complex truths: they can both personally oppose abortion & support others’ right to choose; they can both feel uncomfortable about abortion & not want women to die from back-alley procedures #DemDebates
No wonder Planned Parenthood fired her:
Which is why @Ppact fired this woman after less than a year. Planned Parenthood does not want abortion to be rare. It's their bread and butter, so they want it promoted and celebrated. twitter.com/DrLeanaWen/sta…

Rep. Gabbard also went against the Dem line and endorsed the restriction of 3rd trimester abortions:
Abortion is one of the most difficult decisions a woman ever has to make & should not be used as a divisive political weapon. I support codifying Roe v Wade & restricting 3rd trimester abortions unless a woman's life/severe health consequences are at risk tulsi.to/Womens-rights
