In a press conference on Tuesday where he delivered remarks on “expanding access to mental health care,” President Joe Biden bragged that his administration had “ended cancer as we know it.”
“One of the things I’m always asked is: You know, why — why Americans have sort of lost faith for a while on being — being able to do big things,” Biden began.
“If you could do anything at all, Joe, what would you do?” he continued. “I said, ‘I’d cure cancer.’ And they looked at me like, ‘Why cancer?’ Because no one thinks we can. That’s why. And we can. We’ve ended cancer as we know it.”
The White House transcript amended Biden’s remarks, saying he said, “We can end cancer as we know it.”
Social media had a field day mocking Biden’s claim:

Biden also declared on Tuesday, “I don’t know what the difference between breaking your arm and having a mental breakdown is. It’s health. There is no distinction.”
In June 2019, Tuesday, speaking in Ottumwa, Iowa, Biden decided to endorse hyperbole in theatrical fashion, promising his audience that as president he would do something no human had ever done before: cure cancer.
“I’ve worked so hard in my career that I promise you, if I’m elected president you’re gonna see (the) single most important thing that changes America, we’re gonna cure cancer,” he said.
As vice president, Biden supervised the “Cancer Moonshot” initiative and after leaving office, he oversaw the Biden Cancer Initiative.

As Medical News Today explained in 2018, there are numerous methods that are being tried to combat cancer: chemotherapy; radiotherapy; tumor surgery and hormonal therapy. Newer techniques include immunotherapy (but the difficulty lies in cancer cells fooling the immune system into “ignoring them”); therapeutic viruses (but they are difficult to control); using nanoparticles to target cancer cells, and starving cancer cells of nutrients.
According to the National Cancer Institute, there are over one hundred kinds of cancer: “There are more than 100 types of cancer. Types of cancer are usually named for the organs or tissues where the cancers form. For example, lung cancer starts in cells of the lung, and brain cancer starts in cells of the brain. Cancers also may be described by the type of cell that formed them, such as an epithelial cell or a squamous cell.”
The plethora of cancers imply that dealing with them all likely defies the capacity of a “silver bullet” that can wipe them all out. As Live Science noted, “There are many different causes, ranging from radiation to chemicals to viruses; an individual has varying degrees of control over exposure to cancer-causing agents. Cancer cells, and how they grow, remain unpredictable and in some cases mysterious. Even after seemingly effective treatments, crafty cancer cells are able to hide out in some patients and resurface.”
cured cancer for the elites only... everyone else gets the mrna vaccine.
Cure for Dementia is death.
He and the rest of the democrats ARE a cancer on America.
We should be supporting his reelection bid. If we can’t beat him there’s no sense in voting again.
Joey the Sniff said, “We’ve ended cancer as we know it.”
WHAT Joey meant to say was “WE’VE CHANGED THE DEFINITION OF CANCER and as such ended cancer as we know it.”
FJB and EVERY LAST MEMBER of his Perverted and Sexually Deviant Administration !!!!!!!
I think that instead Biden will come out and announce that he has cured dementia. While drooling on himself, and clenched fist punching inert objects, before throwing himself into his audience because he imagined a young girl was there.
There have been amazing advances in cancer research going on. I knew JB would take credit.
Over the years breakthroughs have been hidden. I wonder if they’ll finally let some of them come to light to prop up JB.
We are in the stone age in cancer treatment. Maybe that’s intentional; hard to know.
It won’t be the US that cures cancer. The Israelis are going to get there first.
Sounds like the Biden team has a plan for a when the impeachment trial comes down the pike use the dementia gig.
Bookie taking bets
Just paid a bunch to fill up the tank. That doesn't count? Let's go Brandon.
By the way and I’m late here.
But.
I was given a warning by Sukerberg on FB because I shared a post on this.
The thing is I listened to it on LOUD several times and that IS what he said.
How can they just do that in a sane and good world?? Ohh…self explanatory I guess.
“Missing context
Independent fact-checkers say this information is missing context and could mislead people. You can choose whether to see it.”
The question is why are you still on FB?
I deleted my account completely six years ago.................
Family, few friends and I sell stuff there.
My daughter used to do that as well.............
