Aversion to factual info, much? You might have asked yourself: if he knew he had prostate cancer 3 years ago, why did he and his doctor let it reach a Gleason score of 9? Why would they wait and let it metastasize in his bones? Did that much slip by your thought process?

Bro! This is the biggest scandal there has ever been... for some reason that I can't put my finger on.

Okay doc. Maybe the treatment is also what contributed to his brain melting. He's a geriatric brain dead man that ***** himself and is approaching 80 years of age. What treatment is a frail old man with a melted brain going to get? He's been circling the drain for years. Where's your critical thinking?

Cancer metastasizing to the bone in 11 months? Are you thinking critically?

I do get why some are suspicious, but the opinion of urologists regarding the notion he knew years ago is mixed…


I had prostate cancer, Gleason scale 7, so intermediate, and PSA of 24. The urologist did biopsies when the PSA spiked that high. No cancer. I had at least one or two more biopsies, no cancer. Over a year went by. Urologist actually complained to me that “you should have cancer”. He sounded so disappointed the day he said that, I decided I would change urologists if and when he finally detected cancer. He was rooting for the cancer. I’m sure I had prostate cancer well before the biopsy was positive. But until a biopsy was positive, they did nothing.


While it's unclear exactly how long Biden has had cancer, its rapid spread is attributed to it being an aggressive form of the disease. His cancer was categorized as having a Gleason score of 9, which places him in Grade Group 5, the most severe category. The Gleason score is a system for grading the severity of prostate cancer based on analysis of cell samples under a microscope.

When prostate cancer is more advanced and spreads, the bones are among the areas most likely to be affected. It can also commonly spread to the lymph nodes, liver or lungs, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Unfortunately, late-stage cancer diagnoses are not uncommon. A 2014 analysis from Cancer Research UK, for example, found that 46% of all cancers in that country were diagnosed at an advanced stage. A 2023 study published in the journal Lancet Oncology found disruptions in care amid the pandemic also led to an increase in late-stage diagnoses across nearly all cancer types, including prostate.

Slower-growing cancers can take years to develop and be detected, while more aggressive ones can become apparent more rapidly and also spread to other parts of the body quicker….

Biden, who is now 82, did not undergo prostate cancer screening during his last medical checkup while in office, in February 2024, according to recordsreleased at the time. Experts say this is likely due to that fact that these screenings are not routinely recommended for men 70 years or older.

"Doctors will stop screening for prostate cancer at 75 or so, because after that, the prostate cancers you typically pick up are very slow growing, and so the harms of all of the testing and treatment for something that may not kill you — you're talking about risk versus benefit. It may not be worth the risk," Dr. Céline Gounder, CBS News medical contributor and editor-at-large for public health at KFF Health News, explained on "CBS Mornings" Monday.

Instead, Biden's diagnosis came after he recently saw a doctor due to urinary symptoms. A small nodule was found in the prostate, which necessitated further evaluation, his office said last week….

…..Back in 2019, Biden was diagnosed with benign enlargement of the prostate, or BPH. That December, his campaign released his medical evaluation, which noted: "This patient has been treated for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). This was initially treated with medication and was then definitively treated with surgery. He has never had prostate cancer."

Maybe they are lying about this or maybe not. The reality is we already know they have been lying about Joe and his health during his presidency- period full stop! They want people talking about his cancer instead of his corruption and his melted brain. It's awfully convenient that this cancer diagnosis and sympathy come out at the same time as the damning Hur recordings. It's pathetic to discuss this cancer specifically. The more damaging lies we already know about. He served as a puppet to the oligarchy for most of his presidency because he was full retard as president.

Jill is Joe's real cancer anyway- what a crazy wicked and evil person.

Coverup for what? Why would it be covered up?
I’m not sure but I think he’s claiming that Biden maybe has had cancer and it was covered up for years or something stupid? He probably knows that his followers are too stupid to remember that the 24 election was between Harris not Biden. The appropriate response should’ve been, “cancer sucks, wish him all the best.” Which is why classy smart people won’t miss when Trump is gone. The only people who still support Trump are dumber than rocks and/or ****** people.

It’s the same stupid d bag nonsense that inspired all the gross jokes about Pelosi’s husband. Trump and Trumpism is permission to be an ***. It’s liberating and fun!
