Former President Biden Diagnosed With 'Aggressive' Prostate Cancer, His Office Says
Newsmax ^ | Sunday, 18 May 2025 06:00 PM EDT

Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, his office said Sunday.

Biden was seen by doctors last week after urinary symptoms and a prostate nodule were found. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer on Friday, with the cancer cells having spread to the bone.

"While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management," his office said. "The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians."

Prostate cancers are given a score called a Gleason score that measures, on a scale of 1 to 10, how the cancerous cells look compared with normal cells. Biden’s office said his score was 9, suggesting his cancer is among the most aggressive.

I think it’s a fakeout. The deep state will take him out and blame the cancer...”It just suddenly killed him”.

Saw this and thought it was interesting...

“Stage 4 prostate cancer with bone metastasis does not evolve in four months. Not biologically, not medically, not structurally. This level of progression almost always indicates years of undiagnosed advancement, not a sudden escalation.

So we’re left with two options:
1.The truth was hidden for years and the system protected the illusion of stability.
2.The announcement is being timed for reasons unrelated to health transparency. Political, strategic, reflexive.

In either case, we’re not looking at a medical event.

We’re looking at a managed narrative fracture.

All timed around Autopen investigation for sympathy?
When a regime loses control of the narrative, it doesn’t fight facts - it floods emotion.

Sympathy overrides scrutiny.
And nothing softens a scandal like a stage 4 diagnosis.
Especially one released at the perfect geopolitical moment.

This isn’t timing.
It’s orchestration.

And the physical illness negates the need to revoke pardons, unlike, the dementia diagnosis.

OPTION 2:
-he doesn’t have cancer;
-this is just timed as a sympathy move because of the books coming;
-looming Congressional hearings
re: coverup of his mental decline?”

I’ve believed it was your “Option 2” since I first heard about his alleged cancer.

The old razzle-dazzle to deflect attention from the Hur recordings and/or the disingenuous books being written by Tapper et. al., to rationalize their deception.

And I have ZERO doubt, none at all, in the least, that this was known the entire time and allowed to progress, hoping biden would win and die in office and give harris the rest of his term to finish destroying this country.

But Trump won......

Also, if it’s true: “almost always indicates years of undiagnosed advancement, not a sudden escalation”, and he’s been given a clean bill of health during his stolen presidency, it’s a problem.

Either the White House physician is beyond incompetent, or they’re lying. (Of course, both can be true at the same time.)

“Given the level of medical screening and care given to Presidents, his physician (and his family) has probably known of the cancer for some time. With regular screenings, cancer this advanced is not “suddenly” discovered.”

I guess this is the same Dr who didn’t think he had any cognitive issues.

I guess now we know why the autopen people didn’t include a pardon for ‘the big guy’.

So everyone should feel sorry for him & stop saying bad things about him?

They will deflect all hard questions with the “Have you no Decency?” angle of attack

Still, a tough day for Morning Joe. He can say he knew nothing of Biden’s mental decline, but he had his nose so far up his ass, he must have known about the prostate cancer.

This was my thought. Unless the Pres has incompetent care, I don’t know how they missed it
Maybe he had it and it had currently spread or maybe it’s why he dropped out if the race. Remember last year when Laura Loomer said that Biden was rushed to the hospital and wasn’t going to live. I think Biden and company have lied to us again.

My neighbor and high school class president died young last year after prostate cancer metastasized into his bones. My cousin had the same though for her it started out as breast cancer.

That's not good. End up in a wheelchair, as you spine collapses.
"While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management,

Lupron to stop testosterone production. That'll cramp his style. The mental effects (depression, mental fog) probably won't be noticed.
