The Biden family announced that Joe Biden is fighting an aggressive form of prostate cancer. The medical community is questioning if this diagnosis was well-known long before the announcement. Yet, a clip from July 2022 is circulating in which Joe Biden directly says that he has cancer.
On July 20, 2022, Biden was speaking in Massachusetts about the dangers of fossil fuels, stating that his mother would need to use the windshield wipers to remove the oil slick from the car. “That’s why I – and so damn many other people I grew up with – have cancer,” the former president clearly stated.
The White House immediately issued a statement to say that Biden had a cancerous skin lesion removed years ago. The media downplayed his admission as a “gaffe,” as for four long years the public was told to believe that statements made by the president may not be accurate. We were told to accept that the President of the United States had a difficult time with public speaking, and the White House would confirm or deny the words that came out of his mouth.
White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor declared that Joe Biden was “fit for duty” during his last exam in February 2024, when the world was questioning his mental health. Dr. O’Connor claimed Joe Biden was a “healthy, active, robust 81-year-old male who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.” Arthritis and sleep apnea were his only cited medical issues. Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is a simple test that has been around since the 1980s that monitors a protein produced in cancerous prostate cells. Estimates state that the survival rate is around 98% when detected early, and one would imagine that the President of the United States had access to the best medical doctors in the nation. Yet, they failed to perform this simple test, as indicated by public health records.
Now, the Biden family had close personal ties to Dr. O’Connor. Joe’s sister-in-law, Sara Biden, described Dr. O’Connor as a “friend.” “Colonel O’Connor was actually a friend and he — we would frequently ask for his recommendations if any of us had a medical issue,” Sara Biden said in 2019 during a deposition from a malpractice case filed by her stepdaughter against a specialist referred to her by O’Connor. Dr. O’Connor invited Hunter, Jim, and a dozen other Bidens to his military retirement party in July 2017.
In mid-2017, Joe’s brother Jim attempted to secure Veterans Affairs contracts with the hospital chain, Americore. He utilized the help of Dr. O’Connor who arranged a meeting between Jim and the hospital’s president. “You and your team clearly share our vision,” O’Connor wrote to the hospital president following the business meeting. Dr. O’Connor had been a personal friend and mentor for the Biden family for years before officially taking on the White House physician role in 2021.
“Sad and unfortunate and I wish the former President the best in his treatment of this cancer,” Congressman Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), who previously served as the White House physician, wrote on X. “Care at the White House should be second to none. Unbelievable this was missed, but the truth is, his physician was more concerned about assisting with the political cover up than providing world class medical care.”
Ironically, Biden fired former White House physician Dr. Sean Conley to install Dr. Kevin O’Connor. It is not unusual for a president to hire a personal physician. However, Dr. Conley faced intense media scrutiny for allegedly sugar-coating then-President Trump’s coronavirus diagnosis. Dr. Conley later admitted he “was trying to reflect the upbeat attitude,” but in the end, Donald Trump was fine. Rear Admiral Dr. Ronny Jackson faced similar criticism for giving President Trump an optimistic medical review. As ABC News reported when Dr. O’Connor was appointed, “A source close to the president said Biden would never ask O’Connor to lie for him, and O’Connor would never offer. The two wouldn’t want to disappoint each other,” the source added.
Urologist Dr. David Shusterman stated that it is extremely unlikely for someone to develop aggressive prostate cancer when receiving annual checkups suddenly. “Most likely had it for a long time […] Aggressive prostate cancer grows over a long period of time. Five to ten years [in] the most aggressive form,” Dr. Shusterman said. “He is a former president, had intensive state of the art care […] It’s unusual to hear that someone has prostate cancer when they’re annually being followed up. The fact that we find it at a Gleason 9 is unheard of.”
Dr. Chris George, medical director of the cancer program for the Northwestern Health Network, told Reuters that it is safe to assume that the president was receiving annual PSA checks. “What concerns me … is the fact that the cancer has been reported to have already spread beyond the prostate to the bones. And when the cancer has spread to the bones, that makes it stage 4, that means that the cancer is not curable,” George said. “There’s no treatment available that can cure the cancer. There’s definitely treatment available that can control the cancer.”
Dr. Shusterman said that even among the medically neglected population, it would be almost unheard of for someone to have such a sudden and severe diagnosis. He believes that even the most aggressive form of this cancer could take nine to 10 years to develop. The truth of the matter is that the Democrats likely knew Biden was physically and cognitively unable to serve. The man in charge of assessing Biden’s health was a personal family friend with ties spanning back to 2009. Are we to believe that the former President of the United States was a victim of medical malpractice?
