The Pro-Abortion “Devout Catholic” White-Washing Of Joe Biden
The media don’t want voters to know that Biden was anti-abortion for decades.
The mainstream media is engaged in an effort to reinvent President Joe Biden, thereby rewriting history.
The goal? To present him as pro-abortion.
“Biden Is an Uneasy Champion on Abortion. Can He Lead the Fight in Post-Roe America?” Michael D. Shear wrote for The New York Times, adding, “A practicing Catholic, President Biden has long sought a middle ground on abortion. But activists see the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade as a sign that Democrats have tiptoed too carefully around the issue.”
While it is true that Biden has — in recent years — become vocally supportive of abortion, the claim that he has “long sought a middle ground on abortion” is, frankly, propagandizing nonsense.
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he described Roe vs. Wade as “wrongly decided” in 1973?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he said that Roe vs. Wade “went too far” in 1974?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he voted for the Hyde Amendment in 1976, which almost entirely prohibits the use of federal funds for abortion?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he voted to save the Hyde Amendment in 1993?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when the “Biden amendment” was added to the Foreign Assistance Act of 1981, which banned “American aid from being used in research related to abortions”?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he advocated for the rights of states to overturn Roe vs. Wade?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he advocated in favor of the “Mexico City policy,” which excluded abortion providers from federal funds?
Was Biden seeking a middle ground when he voted for partial-birth abortion bans…twice?
