Days after the release of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s interview with former President Joe Biden, a new story has predictably emerged, aimed at distracting from the previous one. (This is big media’s art form: narrative control, not reporting. They shape the news to best benefit the Democrats and the administrative state.) 

The second and distracting story is that former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an "aggressive" form of prostate cancer, “with metastasis to the bone."

The timing is intriguing, but the outlook for Biden is bleak.

This is metastatic or Stage IV cancer. The five-year survival rate for metastatic prostate cancer is 30%, with a median survival time of 2 to 3 years. 

This is tragic news for Joe Biden and his family.

However, to borrow a phrase from the Nixon era, the question is: what did they know and when did they know it?

According to Harvard Medical School, prostate cancer is diagnosed in approximately 238,000 American men each year. Despite ongoing debates over “what is a woman?”, transgender women (men) are included in this statistic and are at risk for prostate cancer, regardless of whether they identify as women or wear a dress.

Why are we only hearing about Biden’s advanced cancer now?

Mayo Clinic notes that, “Prostate cancer is usually found early, and it often grows slowly. Most people with prostate cancer are cured.”

However, bone metastases represent late-stage cancer, not early, and are unlikely to be cured.

According to MedicineNet, “It can take up to eight years to spread from the prostate to other parts of the body (metastasis), typically the bones.” Biden may have had cancer before he became president. It’s possible that neither Biden nor his physicians were aware of it at that time. It’s also possible they were aware and chose to conceal it, even as he campaigned for president.

As others have suggested, perhaps the plan was to get Biden and Harris reelected in 2024, and then shortly after the inauguration, announce Biden’s cancer. He would resign, making Vice President Harris the president, a position she would likely not win on her........
