Biden's cancer diagnosis raises the question:
Was he ever in good enough health?

On May 18, Americans learned that former President Joe Biden has stage 4 cancer that has, unfortunately, metastasized to his bones. It's sad that Biden, who for decades served our nation as a senator, vice president and president, now faces a life-threatening illness only four months after leaving the White House. But I can't help but think about what Democratic Party leaders and much of the news media told Americans only a year ago. Biden was then portrayed as "active" and "robust." He was more than ready, according to the Democratic Party, for four more years as commander in chief, even as he approached his 82nd birthday.

Joe Biden was so greedy for power and wealth he sacrificed his own health. What a self-destructive fool.

Now, after the fact, everyone is interested?!! When he was in office, questions about his health were the 3rd rail of news reporting!

Biden's defenders seem to be coalescing around some variation of "he didn't know," "he actively avoided finding out," or "he was in denial" to avoid acknowledging a likely coverup. Isn't it more reasonable to assume that Biden had at least a normal desire for self-preservation and therefore underwent the same tests and screening that is routine for the rest of us? A large percentage of Biden's presidency was spent away from the White House where no record was kept of his visitors and activities. There was plenty of opportunity for "off the books" appointments with and treatments by cancer specialists. I also doubt that there is any shortage of such specialists who would be willing to maintain confidentiality to "save our democracy."

It is a fact that Dems and the MSM participated in covering for Joe's declining mental and physical state. Their goal was to influence the outcome of 2020 and 2024 elections. With millions of Baby Boomers in our population, there are millions of families who understand what dementia looks and sounds like. Despite Jake Tapper's dismissal of non-physicians daring to observe Biden's rapid decline, vacant stare, worsening confusion, slurred speech and frequent falls, the signs were there for all to see. Millions of families also know enough about how prostate cancer is diagnosed, monitored and managed to be skeptical about Biden's sudden "diagnosis" just last Friday. Because of MSM complicity, and legions of lying lefties, Americans have been hit with a frightening truth bomb. Unelected individuals usurped the Office of the President, decided when and where he could be seen and heard, and were in control of the Presidential Autopens. We don't know who has been running our country for the past four years. We only know who was NOT in charge. The Dems and media who wanted to throw Donald Trump in jail for the Russia hoax and other made up "crimes" have some explaining to do, and it can't begin soon enough.

Prostate cancer was never an impediment to serving as President. Dementia sure the heck was, although denied and ignored by the media and every public Dem figure.

Unfortunately, it appears Biden who has been a partisan political snake for many years, was selected by the leftist and progressive Democrats, with his rapidly declined cognitive abilities, to be essentially their puppet in the White House, knowing that once he was ensconced there and not really knowing which way was up. That Biden could easily be ignored or manipulated by unelected leftist and progressive Democrat aides and activists spread throughout the White House, as they established and instituted all sorts of extreme leftist and progressive policies sometimes using Biden’s auto-pens to put Biden’s signature on official documentation to justify their actions. Like opening the US borders to just about all prospective Third World origin illegal aliens in unlimited numbers contrary to the intent of the immigration laws that were passed by Congress. Now it is up to the wimpy congressional Republicans to conduct appropriate investigations to determines how much improper and unlawful activities took place in the White House to institute extreme leftist and progressive policies some of which Biden did not have a clue. No doubt if the wimpy Republicans do that, those leftist and progressive Democrat unelected activists and aides will attempt to evade any wimpy Republicans inquiries by hiding behind the principle of executive privilege, and it will not do any good to ask Biden about all that as he can’t remember, and will be limited to reading off notes prepared for him by aides, activists and lawyers.

It’s unfortunate that Biden was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but on the other side of the coin Biden has been a corrupt partisan political snake for decades. In those respects you have to believe that with such an advanced cancer diagnosis that Biden’s close family members, doctors, and some of the close in Democrats knew for a long time that such cancer was getting worse inside Biden’s body that was also ravaged by seriously diminished cognitive abilities. No doubt the leftist and progressive Democrats who used Biden as their political puppet kept all that medical data relating to Biden’s health a secret as long as Biden was in the White House, enabling them to create and institute all forms of the extreme leftist and progressive Democrat political agenda. Notice the apparent coincidence of Biden’s cancer diagnosis being announced immediately after the Robert Hur audio tapes being released, a number of books being released, and the commencement of numerous congressional investigations that are all bound to end up being extremely adverse to Biden. Any experienced criminal investigator will tell you that he or she does not believe in coincidences, and that everything that happens, happens for a purpose. High Democrat activists are already claiming that since Biden has cancer, that the country should now move forward and that in those respects all inquiries, investigations, and statements concerning happenings during the Biden years should stop and essentially be forgotten. How will the wimpy congressional Republicans respond?

#9- Biden has prostate cancer, not pancreatic cancer. The prostate cancer has been there for quite some time since it has now metastasized to his bones. Pancreatic cancer would have likely killed him before he could serve out one term.

So, Diaper Joe was in fine health. He was a super elder able to out work most 20 year olds in the White Hut. Boy and he was sharp as a tack. And then, Trump was elected. And miraculously never documented to occur and spread so fast, he has metastatic prostate cancer . And all within the first 100 days of Trumps' presidency. Which means one thing. It's Trump's fault.

He was braindead in 2019 when he regaled an uncritical, utterly sympathetic (black) audience to back to back anecdotes about Cornpop and his leg hairs that spring back up when rubbed down by children in the pool. That's whan his dementia became unmistakable. By midwifing FJB's ascendacy to the 'residency, the idiotic fool Clyburn did damage to America that will take a century to undo. Anti-American fool. Should be ashamed if he had a clue. He doesn't.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended the Trump administration's reorganization of what he calls the U.S. "foreign aid industrial complex" during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Tuesday. Rubio said previously at USAID, "only 12 cents of every dollar was reaching the recipient." "We still will provide more foreign aid, more humanitarian support, than the next 10 countries combined... and far more than China," he said, disputing the argument that the U.S. is handing over soft power to China by cutting foreign aid. "China doesn’t do humanitarian aid. China does predatory lending."

Those of us who were long convinced that aides were hiding the president’s cognitive decline weren’t cynical enough. We also needed to believe they were hiding other serious ailments, such as prostate cancer. Hmm, what else didn’t we suspect that we should have? Whatever it is, the odds are soaring that we are going to find out.

It is now socially safe to state the obvious out loud. Former President Joe Biden was not physically or mentally healthy enough to be president. And based on his 2020 presidential campaign when he was often hidden from public view and mostly stayed home, Biden was probably not even well enough to campaign. The reason that talk of Biden’s poor health makes the left bristle is because it triggers a big question that can only lead to possibly the biggest presidential scandal in our nation’s history.

It’s gratifying to see President Donald Trump personally pursuing peace and reconciliation in a world ravaged by war and conflict. His dictum that “we have no permanent enemies” is a powerful statement coming from the leader of the free world. Fortunately, the subject changed from more weapons that can kill more people, to what we must do to stop these wars, killing so many innocent people. What Mr. Trump has accomplished since being sworn in as president on January 20, 2025, is impressive.

Across the country, a new defense is being heard in state and federal courtrooms. From Democratic members of Congress to judges to city council members, officials claim that their duties include obstructing the official functions of the federal government. It is a type of liberal license that excuses almost any crime in the name of combating what Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called the “modern-day Gestapo” of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The latest claimant of this license is Rep.

The dispersed shot-pattern of President Trump’s approval ratings proves he’s still confounding pollsters. For weeks, and especially since Trump’s announcement of sweeping tariffs on what he dubbed Liberation Day, the establishment media’s prevailing narrative has been that the president is plummeting in the polls. However, a closer look at today’s polling reveals a far different story. There is no avoiding the fact that Donald Trump is a divisive politician. RealClearPolitics’ historical average of his national favorability polling shows his first (7/16/16) favorability reading as 26.3%-61.3%. On Jan. 1, 2017, just days before he took office following his November 2016 upset win, he was still underwater by nearly 4 percentage points.

Thank God I left The Episcopal Church.

Episcopal Migration Ministries had resettled almost 110,000 people across the U.S., and the church had touted its assistance to “undocumented immigrants”—read “illegal aliens”—but serving 59 desperate white South Africans who came to the U.S. legally was apparently a bridge too far.

Four months into his second term, President Trump faces a nation with no patience for excuses, only expectations: fix the economy, secure the border, and bring jobs back. According to a recent nationwide TIPP Poll, the economy tops the list of Americans' concerns, followed by immigration and trade. Inflation and food prices remain the top economic issues. While partisan divides persist, there's a shared urgency across the political spectrum for action on these pressing issues, which are likely to drive the 2026 midterm elections. Thirty-eight percent of Americans identify the economy as the country’s most pressing issue, followed by immigration and border security at 27 percent.

Media reports are laced with unsubstantiated claims that man is overheating his planet.

No evidence is provided to corroborate the claim. Man-made global warming just is and skeptics are deplorables. But the facts tell a different story.
