Joe Biden Speaks Out on Cancer Diagnosis: ‘We Are Strongest in the Broken Places’
Breitbart ^ | 05/19/2025 | Hannah Knudsen

Former President Joe Biden spoke publicly about his cancer diagnosis, posting an image of himself with wife Jill Biden, thanking Americans for their “love and support.”

“Cancer touches us all,” Biden wrote in a social media post. “Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.”

Biden’s personal office publicly confirmed the diagnosis on Sunday, noting that it came after the discovery of a “prostate nodule” and an increase in what they described as “increasing urinary symptoms.”

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,” the statement in the press release read.

What are the odds about him actually having written this response, himself?

What? Which speechwriter wrote that line for her?
“strongest in the broken places’.
I understand the metaphor, it’s just an awkward thing to say about an elderly man with Bone Cancer. Of all things to say!

It’s basically a Hemingway quote (I think the wording is slightly off) but as far as I can see, no attribution to Hemingway. Biden is a plagiarist, so not really surprising.

Distraction for the media

Nobody cares about this.

Everyone loves to talk about Biden on any depraved deceitful subject except the steal and destruction

It was probably diagnosed a long time ago. They just kept it under wraps until he needed the sympathy. Like this weekend.

Joe’s speechwriter probably googled “health strength quotes”, but this doesn’t really fit with a late-stage terminal disease.

That doesn't sound like Biden, so I'd say 100% he did not write this.

Joe Biden had this cancer charity in his name for years. Millions of dollars came in and not a penny went to research, not one penny.

All the money 100% went to salaries and they paid friends of Joe and family of Joe. Biden’s whole 50 career was Lies.

Ernest Hemingway's “A Farewell to Arms” includes a similar sentiment about the world breaking everyone and the potential for strength in those broken places.

So, more plagiarism till the very end.

I truly believe that Biden has never, ever spoken a truth in his whole sordid, loathsome life. I wish him a cure for the cancer, but that’s as far as it goes.

In this case, yes. Biden is strongest speaking out of his a*s.
