On March 25, 2021, 25 U.S. Senators sent a letter to the Small Business Administration (SBA) requesting an investigation into how Planned Parenthood affiliates have been able to receive millions of dollars in COVID relief funding despite being ineligible for the funding. This is the fourth letter of its kind issued by Members of Congress in 10 months.
Signers of the bill include Senators Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), Mike Braun (R-Ind.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), Tim Scott (R-S.C.), Steve Daines (R-Mont.), Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), and others.
Planned Parenthood, argue the senators in their latest letter, is “a national organization with central control over its affiliates which has nearly $2 billion in assets, and over 16,000 employees nationwide…” The SBA rules and guidances surrounding COVID relief funding state that businesses must be small, with no more than 500 employees, in order to qualify for the loans (which are actually grants that don’t need to be paid back).
Despite the fact that the SBA told the Planned Parenthood affiliates that received funding that they must return it, and regardless of the efforts of senators to block Planned Parenthood from receiving further funding, the abortion corporation has continued to accept additional money through the latest COVID relief bill. In this most recent letter, the senators mention just 38 of those Planned Parenthood affiliates, noting that seven of them did return the funding; however, two others actually applied for and received a second round of funding totaling a combined $3.6 million.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
