The text references past behaviors and accusations against other prominent figures, including Bill Clinton and Keith Richards, to illustrate the pattern of skepticism in political narratives. It highlights Republicans, including Donald Trump and Dr. Ronny Jackson, who criticized the medical oversight in Biden&#8217;s case and suggested possible cover-ups regarding his health. The piece emphasizes the seemingly contradictory nature of Biden&#8217;s late diagnosis in relation to the typical progression of prostate cancer and questions the credibility of medical advice provided to the president. the discussion conveys a sense of distrust towards the Biden administration, framing the situation as one that may reflect broader issues of transparency and accountability in political leadership.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_3)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Conspiracy theory: Bill Clinton might have had an extramarital affair with an intern.<\/p>\n<p>Conspiracy theory: Keith Richards may have used, at some point in the not-too-distant past, illicit recreational substances.<\/p>\n<p>Conspiracy theory: Joe Biden&rsquo;s people might be lying to us about his medical condition and when they knew about it.<\/p>\n<p>These three things, for anyone familiar with the news and popular culture anytime in the past, oh, 40-odd years up until now, are funny on their face because, while the accusations might be false &mdash;

specifically Stage 4B, where it has spread to the bones &mdash; means that it has been active for a while.<\/p>\n<p>Now, fine: I guess that makes for decent clickbait, because click I did. Maybe they found some real wackos out there, blaming the whole thing on fluoridated water, UFOs, and the Rosicrucians. Nope.<\/p>\n<p>What they found were <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >prominent political figures &#038;mdash<\/a>; mostly Republicans &mdash; who were noting that 1) the Bidens hadn&rsquo;t been forthcoming about the former president&rsquo;s health and 2) a sitting president who was seeking four more years in the office while having cancer and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/gop-doctor-biden-classic-sign-dementia-something-obvious-outside\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">likely dementia<\/a> is somehow even worse than just a presidential candidate who simply had likely dementia. Because, apparently, it&rsquo;s crazy talk to say the same people who lied to you about the president&rsquo;s health, who are giving you information that doesn&rsquo;t comport with the known facts of a disease&rsquo;s normal natural progression, are perhaps lying to you again.<\/p>\n<p>The Post started, naturally, with President Trump, who expressed his sympathies but &ldquo;also questioned why it wasn&rsquo;t caught earlier.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;That test is standard to pretty much anybody getting a physical, a good physical,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;We had the doctors at the White House and over at Walter Reed, which is a fantastic hospital. I do it &mdash; I did a very complete physical, including cognitive tests.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The outlet then noted that Trump &ldquo;inaccurately referred to Biden&rsquo;s diagnosis as &lsquo;stage 9,&rsquo; an apparent reference to a pathology report giving his cancer a Gleason score of 9&rdquo; &mdash; sorry, I didn&rsquo;t know that being familiar with the Gleason Scale was necessary to notice very obvious facts &mdash; and then (<em>gasp!<\/em>) &ldquo;also questioned Biden&rsquo;s cognitive ability.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;If you take a look, it&rsquo;s the same doctor that said that Joe was cognitively fine, there was nothing wrong with him,&rdquo; Trump said. &ldquo;If it&rsquo;s the same doctor who said there was nothing wrong there, that&rsquo;s being proven to be a sad situation. &hellip; The doctor said he&rsquo;s just fine. And it&rsquo;s turned out that&rsquo;s not so. It&rsquo;s very dangerous.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Which is essentially blowing up your entire headline, if you&rsquo;re going to hinge it on the fact that he &ldquo;questioned Biden&rsquo;s cognitive ability&rdquo; &mdash; because that&rsquo;s the one thing right now we&nbsp;<em>definitely don&rsquo;t question<\/em>. It wasn&rsquo;t there.&nbsp;<em>Finis<\/em>. Gone. Senile. Unable to compute. Doddering. <em>Non compos mentis<\/em>. What word or combination of them can possibly convey just how mentally checked out the man who was supposed to be running the most powerful nation in the free world probably was?<\/p>\n<p>Remember, Biden&rsquo;s diagnosis was announced at a point equidistant between the release of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/audio-damning-2023-biden-cover-exposed-stunning-cognitive-collapse-caught-tape\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interview with special counsel Robert Hur<\/a> in October 2023 on Friday &mdash; which included numerous pauses and slurred speech that made things sound infinitely worse than the transcript, which was already bad &mdash; and the release of the much anticipated expos&eacute; &ldquo;Original Sin: President Biden&rsquo;s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again&rdquo; by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/george-clooney-shaken-core-behind-scenes-interaction-joe-biden-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">which has been hyped<\/a> as the most thorough insider journalistic examination thus far of how bad it all was.<\/p>\n<p>From these facts alone, we can grasp that Biden&rsquo;s cognitive ability has already been determined at zero-point-zero, at least for the job he held. Which is why we&rsquo;re now questioning why a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rage-against-the-machines-tim-commerford-reveals-prostate-cancer-diagnosis\/\" title=\"Rage Against The Machine\u2019s Tim Commerford Reveals ... ...\">prostate cancer diagnosis<\/a>, which should have been caught years ago, is suddenly being revealed at this very moment.<\/p>\n<p>But wait, there&rsquo;s more: GOP Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas, a former physician to the president under George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump, also took note of the uncomfortable truth that facts are facts.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;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,&rdquo; he said on social media.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Sad and unfortunate and I wish the former President the best in his treatment of this cancer.

He&rsquo;s not one of the crazy ones, he swears:<\/p>\n<p><em>  Emanuel said later in an interview with The Post that the point he was trying to make is that the kind of cancer Biden had was &ldquo;present&rdquo; during his time in office &ldquo;because this kind of cancer doesn&rsquo;t develop overnight.&rdquo;<\/em><br \/> <em>&nbsp;<\/em><br \/> <em>&ldquo;I didn&rsquo;t say that there was a conspiracy,&rdquo; Emanuel said. &ldquo;I was very clear that he did have cancer, that&rsquo;s a fact.

These three claims, familiar to anyone who has followed news and pop culture over the last 40 years, are amusing because while they may not be true-perhaps Clinton didn&#8217;t engage with that intern or Richards has been clean-they are based on patterns of behavior that can be verified.<\/p>\n<p>While I dislike hearing about anyone, especially a former president, being diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer, I couldn&#8217;t help but chuckle at this Washington Post headline: &#8220;Biden diagnosis draws well-wishes, questions and conspiracy theories.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If(getCookie( &#8220;ff_subbed&#8221; )) {<br \/>\n    document.getElementById( &#8220;stnvideo&#8221; ).remove();<br \/>\n} else {<br \/>\n    document.addEventListener( &#8220;DOMContentLoaded&#8221;, function() {<br \/>\n        function loadScript(src){<br \/>\n            const script = document.createElement( &#8220;script&#8221; );<br \/>\n            script.src = src;<br \/>\n            script.async = true;<br \/>\n            document.body.appendChild(script);<br \/>\n        } <\/p>\n<p>        function findPreviousParagraph(selector,x){<br \/>\n            const targetElement = document.querySelector(selector);<br \/>\n            if (!targetElement){<br \/>\n                console.warn( &#8220;Target element not found.&#8221; );<br \/>\n                return null;<br \/>\n            }  <\/p>\n<p>            let paragraphs = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll( &#8220;p&#8221; ));   <\/p>\n<p>            let targetIndex=paragraphs.findIndex(p=&gt; p.compareDocumentPosition(targetElement)&amp; Node.DOCUMENT_POSITION_PRECEDING);   <\/p>\n<p>            if(targetIndex===-1 || targetIndex {<br \/>\n                 entries.forEach(entry=&gt;{<br \/>\n                     if(entry.isIntersecting){<br \/>\n                         console.log( &#8220;Paragraph is now visible:&#8221;, entry.target.textContent.trim() );<br \/>\n                         loadScript( &#8220;https:\/\/embed.sendtonews.com\/player3\/embedcode.js?fk=s28Az7AY&#8221; );<br \/>\n                         observer.disconnect();<br \/>\n                     }<br \/>\n                 });<br \/>\n             },{ threshold: 0.5 });   <\/p>\n<p>             observer.observe(element);<br \/>\n         }<\/p>\n<p>         let paragraphToObserve=findPreviousParagraph(&#8220;#stnvideo&#8221;,2);<br \/>\n         observeElement(paragraphToObserve);<br \/>\n     });<br \/>\n}<\/p>\n<p>To clarify, most people agree on three points regarding prostate cancer: 1) it is easily detectable; 2) it progresses slowly, especially in older men like Biden; and 3) Stage 4B indicates that the disease has been active for some time. This makes for good clickbait-I clicked! However, instead of finding wild conspiracy theorists blaming everything from fluoridated water to UFOs for Biden&#8217;s condition, I found notable political figures-mainly Republicans-pointing out two things: first, the Bidens were not transparent about the former president&#8217;s health status; second, having a sitting president seeking re-election while battling cancer and likely dementia raises serious concerns compared to just having a candidate with potential dementia.<\/p>\n<p>The Post began by quoting President Trump expressing sympathy but also questioning why Biden&#8217;s condition wasn&#8217;t detected sooner. He remarked that standard physical exams typically include tests for such conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The article noted Trump inaccurately referred to Biden&#8217;s diagnosis as &#8216;stage nine,&#8217; seemingly confusing it with a Gleason score of nine from pathology reports-a detail he seemed unaware was necessary to understand basic facts-and then questioned Biden&#8217;s cognitive abilities.<\/p>\n<p>This undermines their claim since it&#8217;s clear we don&#8217;t question his mental state anymore-it appears diminished or absent altogether. The announcement of Biden&#8217;s diagnosis coincided closely with troubling interviews revealing slurred speech and pauses during discussions about his cognitive state.<\/p>\n<p>From these details alone we can conclude that there are serious doubts regarding Biden&#8217;s mental fitness for office which leads us to wonder why this prostate cancer diagnosis was only revealed now when it should have been caught much earlier.<\/p>\n<p>GOP Rep Ronny Jackson pointed out this uncomfortable truth on social media stating how unbelievable it was that such a significant health issue went unnoticed due more so to political cover-up than proper medical care-a sentiment echoed by others including Dr Ezekiel Emanuel who suggested that signs of cancer likely existed at least since early in his presidency but clarified he wasn&#8217;t implying any conspiracy regarding whether or not Joe knew about his illness.<\/p>\n<p>However Donald Trump Jr., among others questioning how Dr Jill missed stage five metastatic cancer raised eyebrows given her educational background isn&#8217;t medical yet still faced ridicule during their time in office over her title as doctor despite its legitimacy within education fields rather than medicine itself.<br \/>\nHugh Hewitt also chimed in asking whether Team Biden accused White House physicians either malpractice or dishonesty suggesting annual PSA screenings should remain standard practice regardless age demographics involved here indicating skepticism towards official narratives surrounding healthcare protocols applied under current administration policies which seem inconsistent overall leading many observers left wondering where exactly lies truth amidst all these conflicting statements made publicly throughout various channels lately concerning both physical &amp; mental capacities held by current leadership roles occupied today across nation-wide platforms alike!<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion there seems little doubt remaining amongst those paying attention closely enough observing events unfold recently surrounding issues related directly back towards transparency levels maintained throughout entire process leading up until now revealing deeper implications tied into larger systemic failures present within institutions tasked ensuring public safety welfare ultimately reflecting poorly upon credibility established historically speaking across board when considering ramifications stemming forth from lack thereof seen exhibited consistently over time period spanning several decades thus far without resolution insight forthcoming anytime soon unfortunately leaving citizens feeling disillusioned frustrated overall unable trust what they hear anymore coming straight down pipeline originating high offices held accountable supposedly representing interests best served populace collectively moving forward into future uncertain times ahead awaiting clarity desperately needed restore faith lost along way previously experienced before arriving point reached today where nothing feels certain anymore whatsoever!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2436877,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Joe-Biden-6.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[3620,35748,32490,7115],"class_list":["post-2436876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-biden","tag-cancer-diagnosis","tag-media-bias","tag-wapo"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Joe-Biden-6.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2436876","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2436876"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2436876\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2436880,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2436876\/revisions\/2436880"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2436877"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2436876"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2436876"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2436876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
