It is paramount that the American people trust that the commander-in-chief and candidate for the highest office in the country receives a comprehensive, complete, and transparent examination. This includes all of the necessary blood work, physical, and diagnostic assessments that would give the nation a reliable understanding of the individual’s physical fitness to lead the world.
While there is an inclination to link President Biden’s diagnosis of prostate cancer to the obvious cover-up of his mental decline, we must also query the trustworthiness of the level of expert care he received while in office. At the same time, it is also relevant to question whether President Biden himself refused certain tests or examinations.
As a practicing board-certified urologist for over 30 years, I am disappointed to learn that President Biden’s diagnosis was only recently prompted by onset symptoms. Generally, when symptoms prompt diagnostic evaluations, the cancer is already advanced. While most prostate cancers grow slowly and indolently, on rare occasions, they can develop and metastasize rapidly. It is much more advantageous for treatment to detect the disease early with a basic prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test and a follow-up rectal examination. That is why the revelation that the last PSA test he received was in 2014 is so concerning.
A 2024 memorandum by Dr. Kevin O’Connor, former Physician to the President of the United States, summarizing Biden’s health following his comprehensive physical notably lacked a prostate screening. There is debate regarding the necessity of screening for prostate cancer, especially in individuals over the age of 70, however, no evaluation should be left off the list for the leader of the free world. In this case, perhaps Biden himself refused a screening just as he did a cognitive exam.
Speculation about President Biden’s diagnosis is understandably driven by efforts to cover up his cognitive decline by his White House staff, family, and many in the mainstream media. The timing is also auspicious, with the announcement coming after the release of the audio of his troubling interview with Special Counsel Hur and two days before Original Sin, Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson’s explosive book on Biden’s decline, becomes publicly available. However, absent the answers to the questions asked above, it is medically reckless to assume his diagnosis has been concealed for political reasons.
Prostate cancer cells are common in men over the age of 50, but are neutralized by the body under normal circumstances. In fact, autopsy studies show an over 30% incidence of prostate cancer cells in individuals over the age of 80. But as the adage goes, most men die with prostate cancer, not from it.
President Biden’s cancer has been growing for years, but was not diagnosed until symptoms appeared. It has been reported that his prostate cancer is ‘hormone-sensitive.’ If this is true, then his original diagnosis could have occurred as late as around six weeks ago with the use of a drug called Firmagon. The real question revolves around when, in the course of this disease, he had his biopsy. Without knowing this information, most opinions are merely conjectures, adding little value to the discussion.
The American people deserve to be confident in the well-being of the President of the United States and the supervision of his medical team. President Biden’s legacy is taking a beating right now, and transparency about this issue could serve to help reverse its decline.

The discussion of his mental decline is to cover up his and the other Dims' treason and bribery, of which they can be executed or at least imprisoned over. Don't focus on his cancer, which is not illegal. Don't focus on his dementia, which is also not illegal. Focus on the illegal corruption.
Theory #1) They found the cancer in 2014. Didn't do much to treat it and also stopped screening, because they knew it was there, so why bother to test?
Theory #2) COVID vaccines cause turbo cancer and this thing just came out of nowhere and grew like wildfire. But if they admit this, then the public will panic because so many people got the shot.
Both.....................
Can we believe he even HAS cancer?
They’ve lied about everything else
I am 64. My doc has been annually rotating between blood tests (always very low) and a digital exam. This has been happening since I turned 55.
Neither test is a bother.
I’ve had several friends who did not follow that process and who found out the hard way. Mostly they were people who relied on the VA, or corporate PCPs who did not have a relationship with them. They would never see the same doctor two visits in a row.
You have to take control of your own life and understand your body the same way you need to change the oil in your car.
This is all a diversion from the AutoPen story. Most, or all, of Biden’s “signatures” would invalidate everything they claimed he did. EVERYTHING!!
As a stage 1/Gleason 4 prostate cancer survivor myself, I agree with the Doctor.
He must be urologist, because he isn’t mine.
I’m a schlub, if I died tomorrow about a half dozen people would notice, and eventually (outside of heaven) no one. But I got a PSA test and I know whether I have an abnormal prostate (I don’t), and a President who doesn’t know is either the biggest fool or the biggest con man. Biden has always been a con man.
All hail the loss of Democrats,
Let Biden’s prostate fall.
Bring forth the MAGA restoration now
And Trump will answer the call;
Bring forth the MAGA restoration now
And Trump will answer the call!
“Biden’s prostate cancer, or at least the timing of the media release, is to cover up his mental decline.”
That may be the purpose of the release, but the effect is to aggravate the seriousness of the underlying offenses because it now appears that Joe was not only mentally weak but was rotting away physically and would have almost assuredly died or been removed from office in his second term, meaning the country would have been stuck with the Marxist Haris.
A cool plot that almost worked.
Theory 3: Deep State would rather have everyone focused on the cancer instead of the dementia and incapacity.
Don’t oblige.
Was it illegal for Biden to get millions from China and Ukraine to do their bidding? Yes. So make this the main point of discussion.
I think it is all a lie so he can’t be questioned and his alleged crimes won’t be brought to the surface.
Everything he has done or NOT done (autopen) is DOA because it would be considered bullying if he was called out. Notice how they have kept him locked up and out of sight.
EVEN THOUGH he has already said he would use illness as an excuse to get out of something.
Exhibit A:
“Biden said Vice President-elect Kamala Harris and he share a similar worldview but recalled that he told Obama that should the two have a “fundamental disagreement” on a “moral principle,” he’d resign and claim illness. He then described Harris and him in lockstep on those principles.”

Ok, my theory. Not supported by anything. Biden is long gone. The cancer story is an easy way to get rid of the double that’s been playing him for years.
Who the hell is this Otto Penn feller? I want to meet him and KICK HIS ASS.
I'm sorry, that is a ridiculous statement.
The theory is that you will die of something else long before the prostate cancer kills you.....................
“Who the hell is this Otto Penn feller?”
I think he’s Marshall Law’s father’s, brother’s, cousin’s former roommate.
It is true that opinions differ about the utility of the PSA test over 70. It may sound ridiculous to you but it is true. And it seems also true that when the president is involved, no stone should be left unturned, regardless of what the actuaries say regarding the population as a whole.
