It exists!
However, there is no harvesting of the brain or anyone stating it needs to stay alive to harvest it's brain.
The Time link has NO pictures or video. However, there IS a link in there that leads to the video, which is NSFW:

Also, just as heads up - Breit Bart's site HAS video and images in the story's article. So, Google carefully.
Here is the thing; I don't know what an abortion looks like. So, I am not able to support the counterclaim towards this, which is that this is a miscarriage video and not an abortion video. I won't link those sites, as they are loaded with images of the video as well.
Nonetheless, I don't see anything being harvested, nor hear anyone giving directions to keep the fetus alive, in order to harvest it.
I am sure validation or refutes will crop up in the coming days. But, if this is indeed a miscarriage and not an abortion - this has to be a new low for the Right.

The full source video, which is extremely graphic, lasts about 13 minutes, and shows a fetus being extracted from the mother, placed in a metal bowl, prodded with medical instruments and handled by someone in the room. At times the fetus appears to move, and at other times it appears to have a pulse. There are no images on the full video of any attempt to harvest the brain of the fetus, and there is no sound. Cunningham said the jump cuts in the video are the result of the camera being turned off and on.

Real doctor 'splaining stuff:

Here are all the issues with the video from start to finish:
1. It is illegally and clandestinely shot. I feel very badly for the poor woman in question and wonder why Fiorina and our elected officials are not as outraged as I am about her violation and exploitation. I had second thoughts about watching it myself given the lack of consent from the woman, however, I felt if I could end the conversation about it faster by weighing in. Time magazine or Slate have links.
2. The prep of the patient. The physician (I’m assuming) pours surgical prep/cleaner on the woman’s perineum. We don’t do that anymore for spontaneous deliveries or for abortions that involve induction of labor. This tells me this video is at least 15 years old or from another country.
3. The delivery. It is a spontaneous delivery as the operator waits for the fetus to be expelled. This is what we do with a previable premature delivery. If this were shot mid way through a 2nd trimester abortion (meaning the Laminaria in the cervix, which are osmotic sticks that help the cervix dilate, had just been removed) it is highly unlikely the operator would have waited for a spontaneous expulsion.
4. The cord is clamped on the fetal side. If this were an abortion it would just be cut. Really. No one ever does this with an abortion as it serves no purpose.
5. Waiting for the placenta. The clamp is left on the placental end and at the end of the video the placenta still hasn’t delivered. If this were an abortion the placenta would be removed with suction immediately, no one would wait 11 minutes. Ever. Every abortion clinic has a suction machine.
6. There is no proof this video is in a Planned Parenthood clinic never mind in the United States. This could easily be an operating room.
