After Joe Biden flip-flopped on the Hyde Amendment on Thursday evening (and spare us, this was not him ‘evolving’), David Harsanyi wrote a fact-filled thread of Biden’s history when it comes to the Hyde Amendment and it only made Creepy Uncle Joe look even worse on this issue.
He spent decades voting for and defending the Hyde Amendment …
In 1976, Biden voted for the Hyde Amendment, a law banning federal funds to pay for abortion.

43 years ago.
Let that sink in.
In 1981, the “Biden amendment” to the Foreign Assistance Act banned any American aid from being used in research related to abortions.

Whaddya know?
In 1984, Biden supported the “Mexico City policy,” which bans federal funding for private organizations that provide abortion, advocate to decriminalize abortion, or expand abortion services.

1993: Biden votes to save the Hyde Amendment
— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) June 7, 2019
Saved it AGAIN.
In 1995 and 1997, Biden voted for partial-birth abortion bans that would be vetoed by Bill Clinton.

Good ol’ Bubba, always protecting his own interests.
June 5th, 2019, Joe Biden continues his 40+ year support for the Hyde Amendment.

June 6th, Twitter pushback to Biden support of the Hyde Amendment
— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) June 7, 2019
Enter the mob.
June 6th, night, Joe Biden caves and drops a 40+-year position to appease progs. Now supports taxpayer-funded abortion, from conception to crowning.
— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) June 7, 2019
Unbelievable.
Anything to win though, right Joe?
But no, the Dem party isn't moving hard left, not at all. And Biden is a real rock-ribbed leader.https://t.co/9v5hjchkj7
— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) June 7, 2019
Not at all. The Right just wants people to think they are … sure.

“I don’t like the Supreme Court decision on abortion,” he said. “I think it went too far. I don’t think that a woman has the sole right to say what should happen to her body.” https://t.co/b5qV5XxPSr

But abortion is a woman’s right and stuff, it says so in the Constitution, right by the free healthcare and free college.
Biden will make the argument that his experience matters. But if he was wrong about everything, and admits it, then what does that experience mean?
— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) June 7, 2019
Means he’s nothing but a shallow, desperate-to-win, politician.
He has experience being wrong.
— Jeryl Bier (@JerylBier) June 7, 2019
Yes, but it is a LOT of experience!
Quantity over quality, I always say!
