Free Beacon's Bill McMorris Joins Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Friends

The Washington Free Beacon's Bill McMorris joined the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Friends, a conservative online discussion panel, Thursday to discuss revelations about Planned Parenthood practices regarding fetal organ harvesting, Hillary Clinton's private email server and its effect on her polls, and the death of Cecil the Lion, among other topics.

Partial transcript below.

LEON WOLF: Let's go to Bill. Hillary was asked, should there be a congressional inquiry into Planned Parenthood? Her response was kind of confusing. She said well, if so, it should look at every part of the abortion industry instead of some parts of it. What the heck does that even mean?

BILL MCMORRIS: Well, she was going even more extreme than congressional Republicans have been, because she was saying don't just investigate Planned Parenthood—investigate every single abortion clinic in the country. That was very startling to me.

Since day one when this story broke, for every video that has been released, the Free Beacon has called up every single Democratic presidential candidate and begged them to comment on this. They've dodged it for weeks, but this week Rand Paul called them out and said that Democrats should be forced to answer for the actions of their donors. It forced the media to confront this head on. My hat's off to the New Hampshire Union Leader because they're the ones who had the stones to ask Hillary Clinton what she thinks about this.

Hillary has previously defended the group in staged campaign events. She had pulled out all the talking points about heavily-edited videos and women's health care. But this week she said that while she hasn't seen the videos, the imagery she had seen was disturbing...

...I will take seriously that this video is so bad for Planned Parenthood that Hillary Clinton felt the need to condemn them. When the top recipient of Planned Parenthood cash is denouncing them you know it is resonating with the American people. My hat's off to the Center for Medical Progress for forcing a top Democrat to apologize for the barbarism they've sanctioned for so many years.
