So it looks like Jake Tapper and his 10 00:00:33,719 --> 00:00:42,079 legacy media colleagues missed another Biden health story, and Joe 11 00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:49,719 Biden is like the sneakiest, trickiest, cleverest hider of secrets ever. 12 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:57,200 I mean, think about Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson from Axios. 13 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,520 They got their book coming out talk about, you know, 14 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:09,599 Joe Biden's declining mental acuity. They interviewed two hundred sources. 15 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,439 Of course, after you know, the election, when it doesn't matter, 16 00:01:17,159 --> 00:01:21,280 two hundred sources they talk to about Joe Biden's mental 17 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:28,079 health and his declining cognitive abilities, and not one of them, 18 00:01:29,359 --> 00:01:35,599 none of them ever told Jake Tapper or Alex Thompson, hey, 19 00:01:35,879 --> 00:01:43,959 you know Joe might actually have cancer too, because the 20 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,000 more I hear about this, the more it seems quite 21 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:58,319 unlikely that this was just revealed well to the family. Now, obviously, 22 00:01:59,799 --> 00:02:04,040 you know, cancer is terrible. My prayers are with Joe 23 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,159 Biden and his family. It's awful, But that is a 24 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,039 separate and distinct thing. Oh, by the way, I should 25 00:02:12,039 --> 00:02:16,520 also point out, because I just saw this, Scott Adams, 26 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:23,400 the creator of the Dilbert cartoon series. He apparently today 27 00:02:24,199 --> 00:02:28,039 divulged that he too has the exact same cancer as 28 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,400 Joe Biden, and he said he expects that he'll be 29 00:02:33,439 --> 00:02:39,879 dead by summer. And he's about the same age. I think, yeah, 30 00:02:39,879 --> 00:02:41,400 I think he's a little bit younger than Joe Biden, 31 00:02:41,439 --> 00:02:42,719 who is now what eighty two. 32 00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:45,439 Speaker 2: But I. 33 00:02:47,039 --> 00:02:52,879 Speaker 1: Can separate the human side of this cancer diagnoses that 34 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:59,560 the bidens have announced. And then also look at the 35 00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:06,199 way this was handled, and it seems pretty obvious this 36 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:11,840 is not something that he just got. And if it is, like, 37 00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:16,840 you're going to discourage a lot of men from getting tested, 38 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,680 because what's the point, right, Like you go in for 39 00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:25,000 a routine physical exam or something like, oh, you got 40 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,080 prostay cancer, you got two months to live it already metastasized, 41 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,639 it's into the bones, and like, wait, but I was 42 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,560 just in here. I was just in here like six 43 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,520 months ago or whatever. Like if that's how quickly this 44 00:03:38,639 --> 00:03:43,039 cancer will kill you, that's the message that's going out 45 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,560 right now. And prostay cancer is like very preventable, but 46 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,000 also and treatable when caught early, as long as you 47 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,719 do the early detection stuff. And I don't know if 48 00:03:55,719 --> 00:03:57,360 you're going to say like, oh, well you got it now, 49 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,599 you got you know, six months to live and that's it. 50 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,159 Like that's not going to inspire people to get tested. 51 00:04:03,599 --> 00:04:05,840 And this is why I don't believe that this is 52 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,199 just something that they got a diagnosis of like within 53 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:15,479 a week. I don't believe that. Maybe it's true. I 54 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,680 could be wrong, but I'm gonna go over some of 55 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:24,680 the details, and I think it's just I think the 56 00:04:24,759 --> 00:04:31,839 chances are remote. So here's Politico. Former President Joe Biden 57 00:04:31,879 --> 00:04:34,959 has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer 58 00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:38,759 with metastasis to the bone, according to a statement from 59 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:44,160 his personal office Sunday. Doctors diagnosed Biden last week with 60 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:50,839 a prostate nodule after he experienced increasing urinary symptoms. By 61 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,600 Friday they diagnosed him with cancer. So that's the timeline 62 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,959 that the uh the Bidens are putting out there. Diagnosed 63 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:06,720 with a nodule last week and by Friday they said 64 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:13,199 he had cancer and it had metastasized into the bone. 65 00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:15,959 There is a scale, it's called the Gleason scale, and 66 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:21,600 it's the scale of the aggressiveness of cancer, and his 67 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,120 is a nine on the Gleason scale, and I think 68 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:29,519 it goes to ten, so it's very aggressive. But they 69 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,240 say it appears to be hormone sensitive, which allows for 70 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:38,560 effective management. Effective management which means but you can keep 71 00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:42,160 hitting it with hormone treatments, maybe some chemo, some ivs 72 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:49,240 and stuff, and you can keep it at bay, even 73 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:54,959 though it is very aggressive. Okay, Now, with metastasis to 74 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:01,439 the bone like that takes time to develop. And I'm 75 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,959 not believing that this happened since Joe Biden left office. 76 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,920 And by the way, I'm not the only one who 77 00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:14,480 holds this opinion. Zeke Emmanuel does. Doctor Zeke Emmanuel, an 78 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:19,600 oncologist brother to Rahm Emmanuel on Morning Joe. 79 00:06:19,519 --> 00:06:23,639 Speaker 3: You believe it is likely, if this prostate cancer has 80 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,199 spread to the bone, that he could have had it 81 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,079 for up to a decade, but certainly it's likely. Would 82 00:06:31,079 --> 00:06:33,959 it be fair to say it's likely to have had 83 00:06:34,079 --> 00:06:39,040 this for at least several years. 84 00:06:39,959 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 4: Oh more than several years. You don't get prostitution. 85 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: Again, I just want to stop you, so your this 86 00:06:47,319 --> 00:06:51,240 is not speculation. If you have prostate cancer that has 87 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,720 spread to the bone, then he's most certainly you were saying, 88 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,279 had it when he was president of the United States. 89 00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he did not develop it in the last 90 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,199 one hundred two hundred days. He had it while he 91 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,399 was president. He probably had it at the start of 92 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:14,160 his presidency in twenty one. Yes, that I don't think 93 00:07:14,199 --> 00:07:16,000 there's any disagreement about that. 94 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:25,959 Speaker 3: And I'm just curious again, if you're doctor to president 95 00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:29,079 of the United States, that is a male, that is 96 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:34,720 an older man, would prostate tests and again we're just 97 00:07:34,759 --> 00:07:38,160 talking about a PSA screening, a blood test that you 98 00:07:38,199 --> 00:07:40,800 could do along with all the other blood tests, and 99 00:07:40,839 --> 00:07:46,079 so it's not even that it would be intrusive. Would 100 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,279 this not be one of the first tests that you 101 00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:51,160 would conduct as a white house doctor. 102 00:07:52,199 --> 00:07:55,439 Speaker 4: If you're a white house doctor in this situation, I 103 00:07:55,480 --> 00:08:00,040 think you would certainly discuss it with the president and 104 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,680 talk about the pros and cons. I think if you 105 00:08:03,759 --> 00:08:06,920 then ask both, if President Biden says, well, if I'm 106 00:08:06,959 --> 00:08:10,519 your father, which patients often do you know, what would 107 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,639 you recommend? I think the fact is that most White 108 00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:18,240 House doctors would recommend getting the test. And again the 109 00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:23,560 evidence is look at President Obama. President Bush younger than 110 00:08:23,639 --> 00:08:27,240 President Biden, and they both got the test. 111 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,399 Speaker 1: They both got the test. They've all, it's just a 112 00:08:30,439 --> 00:08:33,759 blood test, It's a why wouldn't you test for it 113 00:08:35,159 --> 00:08:38,639 at his age? I know, I think after like seventy 114 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,320 years old, I think they they may say, you know, 115 00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:43,399 it's not like recommended that you do so, but you're 116 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,679 the president of the United States. Why wouldn't you test 117 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,200 with the blood that you're probably already drawing to run 118 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,759 all of your other annual physical tests for too, right? 119 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,679 And they were coming out and saying clean bill of 120 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,759 health everybody, in fact, Hang on a second, where is here? Yeah, 121 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:06,120 Harry Sisson, this little punk lefty influencer kid, the one 122 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,919 that was literally on the payroll for the Democrats to 123 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:14,039 put out TikTok videos back on February twenty eighth, twenty 124 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:19,159 twenty four. There it is President Biden's physician just commented 125 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,960 on Biden's health, saying President Biden is a healthy, active, robust, 126 00:09:24,039 --> 00:09:27,399 eighty one year old male who remains fit to successfully 127 00:09:27,399 --> 00:09:31,360 execute the duties of the presidency. Biden is fit to serve. 128 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:36,360 Any Republican who says he isn't is lying. That was 129 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:41,519 February last year, before the coup that ousted Joe Biden. 130 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,000 And to hear Zeke Emmanuel, And what I'm seeing from 131 00:09:46,039 --> 00:09:49,480 other doctors that are commenting on this is that of 132 00:09:49,519 --> 00:09:52,519 course you would do the PSA tests, you could do 133 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:58,080 the digital exam as well, and no, it would not 134 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:02,879 have metastasized to the bone in the last three months. 135 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,360 How is it possible that the White House doctor did 136 00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:10,879 not know this? This is not something that you would 137 00:10:10,879 --> 00:10:17,440 develop this quickly, which means the family new, which means 138 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,759 people in the White House new, which means people who 139 00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:23,679 do who were sources to Tapper and Thompson's book, that 140 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,559 some of them probably knew too, and they never disclosed it. 141 00:10:26,639 --> 00:10:32,120 They never gave up that information. The diagnosis revelation rather 142 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,799 came as Democrats were publicly I love this grappling with 143 00:10:35,919 --> 00:10:39,240 new questions about Biden's mental acuity. They are not new. 144 00:10:39,799 --> 00:10:43,240 These are not new questions. These questions have been around 145 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,080 for five years. Here's a great idea. How about making 146 00:10:47,159 --> 00:10:50,200 an escape to a really special and secluded getaway in 147 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,919 western North Carolina.

To the phones we go. 168 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,200 Let's talk with Steve. 169 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: Hello, Steve Hey, Steve Hippiete. I just want to let 170 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:10,120 you know I think you're being somewhat unfair with your 171 00:12:10,159 --> 00:12:16,279 assessment of that former President Biden knew about his prostate 172 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:21,080 cancer and this was a secret kepa from the American public, 173 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:26,320 because it is entirely possible that is a true statement. Okay. 174 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:32,799 I am a physician in Charlotte and had done everything 175 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,919 one hundred percent appropriate with prostate cancer screening and was 176 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:44,000 diagnosed with metastatic cross state cancer with no symptoms except 177 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,200 for occasionally having to go to get up and go 178 00:12:46,279 --> 00:12:49,639 the bathroom at night, which every older man has to do, 179 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,919 I think, but no other symptoms and no other presentation, 180 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,679 and the disease without symptoms was diagnosed metastatic and every 181 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:03,200 screening test appropriate it had been done. So this actually 182 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,279 is not that uncommon, and it's unfair to those people 183 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,919 that haven't happened for you to say that it's impossible 184 00:13:08,919 --> 00:13:10,399 that it could have happened to President Biden. 185 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: I said, I don't believe I said it was impossible. 186 00:13:14,159 --> 00:13:16,799 I said, I feel like it's not very possible. 187 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 2: It is very possible. 188 00:13:18,759 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still Here's why I don't believe that is 189 00:13:21,639 --> 00:13:24,519 that this is the guy with the best access to 190 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:25,519 the best medical care. 191 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 5: Sir. 192 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 2: Let me tell you something. There's no one that has 193 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,120 better access to the best medical care than a physician 194 00:13:34,159 --> 00:13:37,440 who sees this as that his colleagues on a regular basis. 195 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,759 Speaker 1: Even the president, you have better you have better health 196 00:13:41,799 --> 00:13:43,559 you have better health care than the president. 197 00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: I have no question that it's equal, that it's equal. 198 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,799 Speaker 1: So you so you're saying you've got the same healthcare, 199 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,039 You've got the same quality healthcare as the President of 200 00:13:55,039 --> 00:13:55,799 the United States. 201 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 2: I would say that when it comes to prostate cancer screening, 202 00:14:00,039 --> 00:14:02,440 there are only certain tests that that would be done. 203 00:14:02,799 --> 00:14:04,679 I do not expect him that he would have had 204 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,440 an MRI on a regular basis to evaluate his prostate, 205 00:14:07,759 --> 00:14:10,559 especially at his age. I don't think that anybody would 206 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,519 have done that. And given the aggressive, this nature, aggressive 207 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,799 nature of the tumor that he has a glease in nine, 208 00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:19,759 it is highly possible that it presented with metastatic disease 209 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,799 on presentation. And if you speak to a eurologic I 210 00:14:23,799 --> 00:14:27,960 mean an oncologist who does Eurologic oncology all the time, 211 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,519 you'll find that this is not an uncommon presentation for 212 00:14:32,639 --> 00:14:34,879 someone who only does this as a subspecialty. 213 00:14:35,559 --> 00:14:37,159 Speaker 1: Right, So what do you then make of what Zeke 214 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:37,919 Emmanuel said? 215 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 2: I think that he's probably not an an oncologist who 216 00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:44,600 does only Eurologic oncology. 217 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,039 Speaker 1: And so his opinion on the matter is in time. 218 00:14:48,879 --> 00:14:49,799 Speaker 2: As good as you could get. 219 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,559 Speaker 1: Well, I'm not asking if it's as good as you 220 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,200 can get, I'm asking is it incorrect? 221 00:14:55,879 --> 00:14:58,799 Speaker 2: I think that I can't speak to whether or not 222 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,559 it was a C Chris that was hidden. I can 223 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:06,039 tell you that men do get metastatic prostate cancer without symptoms, 224 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,360 and that it is not unheard of for that to happen, 225 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,320 and it could happen to an eighty three year old 226 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,159 man without any difficult whether he's the president or not. 227 00:15:15,519 --> 00:15:18,519 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, Steve, I appreciate it. I'm sorry that you've 228 00:15:18,559 --> 00:15:20,240 got the same diagnosis. 229 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, I appreciate that. And you know, 230 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,440 the point being is I don't think that it discourages 231 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,639 men from getting from getting appropriate medical screening. It's no 232 00:15:32,759 --> 00:15:36,279 different than can you get breast cancer that's aggressive and 233 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,279 metastatic despite getting mammograms. We can all you can get 234 00:15:40,279 --> 00:15:44,919 colon cancer if you get appropriate colon cancer screening. People 235 00:15:45,039 --> 00:15:48,960 get cancer. It decreases the likelihood that you would die 236 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,120 from your disease if you have appropriate scan screening, but 237 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,279 it does not eliminate that possibility. 238 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: No, of course, not the skin screening for Yeah, the 239 00:15:57,159 --> 00:16:01,159 screenings don't. The screenings just detect, right, I don't think 240 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,399 anybody's making the argument that the screenings prevent the screenings detect. 241 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,759 So this way you can then get treatments. You can 242 00:16:08,759 --> 00:16:11,000 start treatments in. The earlier you catch it, then the 243 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,120 more likely those treatments are to succeed. 244 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 2: But the reality is is that the screening tests or 245 00:16:16,519 --> 00:16:20,519 no screening tests for cancer is one hundred percent effective. 246 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,399 And by definition, it doesn't matter if you you know, 247 00:16:24,679 --> 00:16:27,720 if you at the best data, look at screening, whether 248 00:16:27,759 --> 00:16:31,159 it be breasts colon skin it doesn't matter. I mean, 249 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,080 we can all go get skin checks and lesions are missed. Sure, 250 00:16:35,039 --> 00:16:39,080 we can get PSA performed and they cannot be elevated, 251 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,039 and then a year later they can be elevated. We 252 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,879 can get colon cancer colonoscopes and we can be screened, 253 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,720 and despite that, we can still develop colon cancer and 254 00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:51,919 die from it. The point I'm saying is is that 255 00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:56,519 bad things happen occasionally, and they do occur despite getting 256 00:16:56,519 --> 00:17:00,360 appropriate screening, and it doesn't necessarily mean that it can't happened, 257 00:17:00,559 --> 00:17:02,919 and we need to respect the fact that, even though 258 00:17:03,799 --> 00:17:07,519 I'm speaking completely outside of politics, I don't That's not 259 00:17:07,559 --> 00:17:11,160 what this is about. This is about recognizing the fact 260 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,480 that despite doing the right thing, he could still have 261 00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:16,559 presented with metastatic prostate cancer. 262 00:17:16,559 --> 00:17:18,279 Speaker 1: All right, well, I mean that's fair enough. But here's 263 00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:20,920 the problem that I have is that you're asking me 264 00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:25,319 to believe the bidens. 265 00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 2: Well, I recognize the concern there's and I do recognize that, 266 00:17:29,519 --> 00:17:33,279 but it's like I wanted to make sure that we 267 00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:37,640 know that from a medical standpoint, despite getting everything done correctly, 268 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:43,279 people do present with metastatic prostate cancer despite doing everything appropriately. 269 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: If it came on within the last ten months. 270 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 2: It could easily hear presented within the past ten months, right. 271 00:17:52,319 --> 00:17:56,279 Speaker 1: That's right, because that's essentially what they're saying is that 272 00:17:56,279 --> 00:17:59,640 that there was there was nothing else going on, and 273 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,039 he you know, had some problems, you know, with urinary function, 274 00:18:04,319 --> 00:18:08,599 and then it got diagnosed on Friday. This all happened 275 00:18:08,599 --> 00:18:11,400 within a week, and so I'm assuming that it is 276 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,279 physical a year ago or almost a year ago normal, right. 277 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,160 So that's what I'm being asked to believe, is that 278 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,480 this all presented since he left, and it all just 279 00:18:21,519 --> 00:18:23,960 popped right as the book was getting ready. 280 00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:27,319 Speaker 2: To like Richa as personally, my PSA was normal one 281 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,039 year to the day before I presented with cancer. 282 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,519 Speaker 1: So as a physician, then what are your recommendations for people? 283 00:18:34,519 --> 00:18:36,039 Do you get more screenings? 284 00:18:36,839 --> 00:18:39,039 Speaker 2: Well, at this point, we don't have the problem is 285 00:18:39,079 --> 00:18:44,279 there there are The PSA is not as good a 286 00:18:44,319 --> 00:18:46,440 test as we would like. I think that we have 287 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,759 to watch do what we can at this point, which 288 00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:53,400 is follow the routine screening recommendations for PSA and we're 289 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,240 looking carefully at the literature as it develops to see 290 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,119 if there's another test or a collection of tests that 291 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,720 might do a better screening people for that cancer or 292 00:19:02,759 --> 00:19:07,000 any cancer right, recognizing this actor. Despite doing things correctly, 293 00:19:07,319 --> 00:19:10,640 you can still have a bad outcome and day unfortunately. 294 00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: So your PSA numbers were normal, But were you doing 295 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,920 the digital exams to me personally? 296 00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, I was doing everything correctly right and still 297 00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:24,680 having it still presented a year after everything was normal 298 00:19:24,839 --> 00:19:25,960 with metastatic disease. 299 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: Gotcha, Well, Steve, I appreciate the call and again my 300 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,039 prayers for you and your diagnosis.

Real quick tweet here from Congressman Greg Murphy, 320 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,400 who is a doctor. I think he's a urologist, and 321 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,279 he pointed out this morning it's been said Joe Biden's 322 00:20:47,319 --> 00:20:51,400 prostate cancer is quote hormone sensitive. It takes at least 323 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,400 five weeks to figure this out with a medicine called 324 00:20:56,519 --> 00:21:02,480 fermagon firmagen, so reginal diagnosis was at the latest about 325 00:21:02,519 --> 00:21:07,039 six weeks ago. Let me go over to Bob. Hello, Bob, 326 00:21:07,079 --> 00:21:08,200 welcome to the show. How are you. 327 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, I've had prostate cancer. It's a really easy process 328 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,640 to get through. I was going to an indo chronologism 329 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,680 my diabetes and he was doing the PSA test and 330 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,839 one day he said to me, you prostate had PSA 331 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,920 has risen from six point four to six point eight. 332 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,039 I recommend you see urologist, which I went, and they 333 00:21:30,079 --> 00:21:33,079 did a biopsy and I hadn't heard anybody mentioned that yet, 334 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,480 and he showed me the pictures and my wife and 335 00:21:35,519 --> 00:21:37,240 I looked at it and we have I had cancer. 336 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,400 Unfortunately I quoted early enough that it hadn't left the 337 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,039 prostate right thing. So then I put on camp I 338 00:21:44,039 --> 00:21:48,000 went on chemo, which was heavy on the pretty cool 339 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,079 female home loans estrogen. 340 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 1: Estrogen yeah, yep. 341 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 6: And schedule for radiation, so I had forty four radiation 342 00:21:56,559 --> 00:21:59,680 treatments which created a different problem. Won't go there. But 343 00:22:00,279 --> 00:22:03,640 it's been four years and my PSA tests at zero 344 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:08,480 point one, which is a huge drop. Yeah, I don't 345 00:22:08,519 --> 00:22:09,079 have cancer. 346 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,079 Speaker 1: Well that's great to hear, Bob. And when caught you know, 347 00:22:13,319 --> 00:22:19,799 early was the five year survival rate to too, where 348 00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:23,319 is it here in patients with localized prostate cancer? So 349 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,279 it hasn't spread. The five years survival approximates one hundred percent. 350 00:22:28,319 --> 00:22:31,599 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, it's not been a problem for me, 351 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,240 you know, I mean I don't have a process anymore, 352 00:22:33,279 --> 00:22:35,440 but you know, I'm. 353 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,319 Speaker 1: Living right, Yeah, no, I got you. Well, Bob, I. 354 00:22:38,279 --> 00:22:41,759 Speaker 6: Cannot stress enough that you need to have PSA testing 355 00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:45,759 as a regular routine, especially in your sixties. 356 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it seems like. And it seems like 357 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,720 you should be having it like every six months. 358 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,839 Speaker 6: Yeah. And when they tell you that you need to 359 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,480 have a biopsy, Yeah, it's kind of invasive, but you have. 360 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: To have it, right, I got you, Bob. Well, I'm 361 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,200 glad to hear the good news for you. Thanks for 362 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,640 the call. Thank you, all right, Yeah, take care. Let 363 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,359 me go over and chat with Mike. 364 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 5: Hello, Mike, Hey, how are you doing. 365 00:23:08,039 --> 00:23:09,079 Speaker 1: Hey, I'm good. What's up. 366 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,039 Speaker 5: I agree with you one hundred percent. I don't trust 367 00:23:13,079 --> 00:23:16,000 any of them, and I look at it this way, 368 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,599 and again we're going on off this prostate cancer thing. 369 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,160 I think it's all about transparency, just like you said, 370 00:23:24,519 --> 00:23:28,880 because if they would have came out and said a 371 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,359 year ago that he has been diagnosed with some type 372 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:40,000 of prostate cancer, that shows weakness, right, I mean, our 373 00:23:40,039 --> 00:23:44,640 president had our one president had polio and they kept 374 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,880 it from the public. They never showed him from the 375 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,440 waist down because it shows Because this shows weakness, And 376 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,680 I'm with you one hundred percent. I think we've been 377 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:58,400 I think he was did have some problems with it, 378 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,400 because it is unlikely if he's getting And I'm in 379 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,279 this kind of the same boat. My father had pro 380 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,440 saly cancer, my older brother prosely cancer. I get checked 381 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,119 all the time. I don't have it yet, but it's fine. 382 00:24:12,279 --> 00:24:14,880 I find it hard to believe that all of a 383 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:21,319 sudden after he leaves office, now now we get the 384 00:24:21,319 --> 00:24:23,960 thing that he's got it. And it's kind of like, 385 00:24:24,599 --> 00:24:27,680 so let's stay off with Joe if he had committed 386 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,319 any crimes while he was president, and let's just let's 387 00:24:30,319 --> 00:24:33,480 just not worry about that now because he's because he's uh, 388 00:24:33,519 --> 00:24:36,519 because he's ill. I mean, I don't wish it on anybody. 389 00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:40,359 I think it's awful. But I also think that the 390 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:46,400 government has kept so much stuff from us mentally physically 391 00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:51,440 on this man. I think it was all hushed up, 392 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,400 and I think they kept it quiet. And now that 393 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,240 he's out of office, now it comes. Now it's the 394 00:24:58,279 --> 00:25:02,079 second phase of it, right, I mean, look what they Yeah, 395 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,240 but with his son, his son, look at Hunter, look 396 00:25:05,279 --> 00:25:07,599 at look at both of them. You know, they skated 397 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,000 around all this stuff with them Bo was painted as 398 00:25:11,039 --> 00:25:14,599 being this war hero. I doubt very much that he 399 00:25:14,759 --> 00:25:17,039 saw a lot of action when he was in the service, 400 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,119 being that his father was it. 401 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, well, Mike, I don't have any 402 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,119 idea what sir, I mean, I don't have any idea 403 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,799 what uh what Bo did in the military when when 404 00:25:26,799 --> 00:25:28,119 he was in it. I mean, I think I can. 405 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,240 I think I can live it myself. Just to the 406 00:25:30,279 --> 00:25:35,160 way that the the White House handled Joe Biden's cognitive 407 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:39,119 decline and the way they targeted Trump for like the 408 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,200 document stuff, I've got the her tapes as well to play, 409 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,319 which I think it's pretty coincidental that just as the 410 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,799 Hurt audio files drop and just as the book is 411 00:25:49,839 --> 00:25:52,519 about to come out, that now we have this announcement. 412 00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:55,799 I appreciate the call, Mike. That's the problem I have 413 00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:00,240 with this story. And again I'm separating the diagnose is 414 00:26:00,279 --> 00:26:03,960 from the from the way the story is being presented 415 00:26:05,039 --> 00:26:09,519 in that I am being asked to trust the Bidens 416 00:26:10,079 --> 00:26:15,079 and whoever is still around them, their aids, their comms people. 417 00:26:16,279 --> 00:26:20,480 I'm being asked to believe them, and I can't. There's 418 00:26:20,519 --> 00:26:24,559 no way I can. And honestly, I feel like I'm 419 00:26:24,599 --> 00:26:32,160 being manipulated because, as the Politico article notes, David Axelrod, 420 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,799 the longtime Democratic operative and former Barack Obama advisor, said 421 00:26:36,839 --> 00:26:42,759 on CNN moments after the diagnosis was revealed that conversations 422 00:26:42,799 --> 00:26:47,359 about Biden's mental acuity quote should be more muted and 423 00:26:47,519 --> 00:26:54,160 set aside for now as he's struggling through this. I 424 00:26:54,200 --> 00:27:01,000 feel like I'm being manipulated as the book publishes what tomorrow, 425 00:27:01,039 --> 00:27:04,680 I think Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, their book hits 426 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,720 the shelves tomorrow. They've been releasing, you know, excerpts of it. 427 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,240 None of them have been good for the Bidens, or 428 00:27:13,279 --> 00:27:18,039 the people around them, or the media, including Tapper and Thompson. 429 00:27:21,759 --> 00:27:28,480 By the way, if Joe Biden was getting treatment and 430 00:27:28,519 --> 00:27:32,200 they wanted to keep it hush hush, do you think 431 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:36,400 he may have gone to his beach house every other 432 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,079 weekend or so for a little bit of time. Because 433 00:27:40,079 --> 00:27:43,559 that happened and there are no visitor logs at the 434 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:48,720 Rehoboth beach house. I don't know, but you're asking me 435 00:27:48,799 --> 00:27:52,960 to trust an operation that has obviously been lying about 436 00:27:53,039 --> 00:27:55,799 another aspect of his health. All right, if you're listening 437 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,400 to this show.

John Fund, writing at National Review late on Friday, 458 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,920 the House Oversight Committe announced that it will resume its 459 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,279 investigation of just how the White House operated near the 460 00:29:11,359 --> 00:29:16,960 end of Joe Biden's presidency. Given Biden's cognitive impairment. Kevin O'Connor, 461 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,440 the president's former doctor who never recommended that Biden take 462 00:29:20,519 --> 00:29:24,720 a cognitive test, will be called. So too will White 463 00:29:24,759 --> 00:29:28,559 House staffers who oversaw an overuse of the auto pen, 464 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,519 a mechanical device that replicates the president's signature to authorize 465 00:29:33,519 --> 00:29:40,680 executive orders and grant pardons. John Fund wrote this yesterday. 466 00:29:42,799 --> 00:29:46,960 The question is who decided what would be signed. It's 467 00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:51,640 unclear five people were running the country. That's a direct 468 00:29:51,759 --> 00:29:56,759 quote from an unnamed source in the upcoming book Original 469 00:29:56,799 --> 00:30:01,440 Sin by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson. This book, which 470 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:06,160 will be published Tuesday tomorrow, follows last week's release by 471 00:30:06,279 --> 00:30:11,079 Axios where Alex Thompson works of five hours of tapes 472 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:15,480 from Biden's October twenty twenty three interview with Special Counsel 473 00:30:15,559 --> 00:30:19,480 Robert Hurr, who was probing into Biden's retention of classified 474 00:30:19,519 --> 00:30:24,000 documents from his time as Vice president. Her ultimately decided 475 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,759 that Biden quote wilfully kept the documents, but he did 476 00:30:27,759 --> 00:30:32,559 not recommend that charges be brought because a jury would 477 00:30:32,599 --> 00:30:37,920 probably find that Biden is a quote sympathetic, well meaning, 478 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:43,680 elderly man with a poor memory end quote. A transcript 479 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,039 of HER's interview with Joe Biden was published last year, 480 00:30:47,759 --> 00:30:51,799 but the Biden Whitehouse tenaciously fought against releasing the tapes, 481 00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:56,200 citing law enforcement concerns. Well, we now know the real 482 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,839 reason the tapes reveal a president who cannot recall Keith 483 00:30:59,839 --> 00:31:04,440 at acts, has to frequently pause mid sentence and changes 484 00:31:04,519 --> 00:31:10,119 the subject often quote. The presidency requires someone who can 485 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,640 perform at two am during an emergency. Tapper and Thompson 486 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,559 write in their book, cabinet secretaries in his own administration 487 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,640 told us that by twenty twenty four, he could not 488 00:31:20,799 --> 00:31:25,599 be relied on for this. He could not be relied 489 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,519 on to answer the call at two am. His own 490 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:33,480 secretaries were saying that the very ones who would be 491 00:31:33,519 --> 00:31:36,720 the ones to come forward and invoke the twenty fifth Amendment, 492 00:31:36,799 --> 00:31:40,480 and you know, blow the whistle on this. I've said 493 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:46,079 this repeatedly, like this is the biggest political scandal in 494 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,039 my lifetime and quite possibly in our history. You have 495 00:31:50,559 --> 00:31:56,799 a group of people that shut out everybody to prevent 496 00:31:57,799 --> 00:32:01,640 the president from being identify as being in cognitive decline. 497 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:06,039 And those people then were running the government, they were 498 00:32:06,079 --> 00:32:08,960 making what decisions, all of them, some of them, none 499 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,680 of them. Don't know. Here's something else too, by the way, 500 00:32:12,759 --> 00:32:18,960 is it possible that he was having treatments for maybe 501 00:32:19,119 --> 00:32:24,720 prostate cancer or maybe cognitive decline issues right, Parkinson's or 502 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,759 I don't know. Is it possible he was having treatments 503 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,559 at his Delaware home when he was constantly going down there, 504 00:32:31,599 --> 00:32:33,680 to remember, like it was every week, every other week, 505 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:35,319 he was down there for like three four days at 506 00:32:35,319 --> 00:32:37,440 a time. Oh, he's still working. And then you'd see him, 507 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,880 you know, fighting a beach chair, right or just like 508 00:32:42,039 --> 00:32:46,279 passed out, zonked out on the beach sleeping. Is it 509 00:32:46,319 --> 00:32:49,799 possible that the bruises that people were identifying on his 510 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:54,200 hand that would pop up pretty regularly that indicated some 511 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,680 sort of IV treatments. I don't know. You're asking me 512 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,440 to trust the bidens that I can't. You're asking me 513 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,279 to trust these White House aids and these insiders and 514 00:33:04,319 --> 00:33:07,079 all the people that have been lying about his cognitive decline. 515 00:33:07,119 --> 00:33:11,960 Here's something else. If he was undergoing treatments for cancer, 516 00:33:13,559 --> 00:33:18,759 could that have made his cognitive issues more pronounced. I've 517 00:33:18,759 --> 00:33:25,440 heard of chemobrain where we seeing something like that. Senemight 518 00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:28,119 ARTI leader Chuck Schumer insists that the country should be 519 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,759 looking forward rather than analyzing how Biden came to run 520 00:33:31,759 --> 00:33:35,160 for reelection despite his cognitive impairments. See so there's already 521 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,839 this effort to deflect away. All right, we need to 522 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,799 move on. I understand why Democrats want to just move on, 523 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,079 and the Bidens would prefer that his legacy remain intact. 524 00:33:46,119 --> 00:33:51,480 For whatever that is. There was there was, indeed, this 525 00:33:51,559 --> 00:33:54,720 is John Fund again. There was indeed a massive cover 526 00:33:54,839 --> 00:33:59,880 up inside the White House, as The Atlantic blatantly reported 527 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:04,119 this week, quote, dozens of people in Biden's orbits suspected 528 00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:06,799 that he was not physically or mentally equipped to be 529 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,079 the President of the United States. Yet they helped him 530 00:34:09,119 --> 00:34:13,480 seek that office and keep it when he couldn't reliably 531 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:17,639 perform its duties. These people then sought to return Biden 532 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,119 to that office for four more years, even if that 533 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,320 meant the country would most likely have been quietly run 534 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:30,559 by unelected aids, or as Democrats call it, the democracy. 535 00:34:33,679 --> 00:34:36,480 They talked about putting him in a wheelchair, but they 536 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:41,119 didn't want the optics of that until after the election. Right, 537 00:34:42,119 --> 00:34:47,800 their own hold on power was so enjoyed, and it 538 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:55,119 was so enjoyed because of Joe Biden's infirmities, they had 539 00:34:55,199 --> 00:34:59,760 every incentive to continue with the call it elder abuse 540 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,119 if you you wish, but the using of Joe Biden 541 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,960 in order to ensconce themselves in power and to keep 542 00:35:08,039 --> 00:35:14,719 themselves there. Those close to him say the first signs 543 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:20,000 that he was deteriorating twenty fifteen. That's when his son 544 00:35:20,159 --> 00:35:24,639 bo died. Recordings from twenty seventeen of Joe Biden talking 545 00:35:24,679 --> 00:35:27,800 with a ghost writer show a man in distress. Quote, 546 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,800 Biden was really struggling in twenty seventeen. His cognitive capacity 547 00:35:32,079 --> 00:35:35,480 seemed to have been failing him. If he had won, 548 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,639 people in the Biden world believe that there would have 549 00:35:38,679 --> 00:35:42,760 been a constitutional crisis because clearly the people in his 550 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:47,360 inner circle were not willing to seed power. That's what 551 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:51,239 they were talking about before he had the debate performance. 552 00:35:53,199 --> 00:35:56,360 They were talking about a constitutional crisis. If Joe Biden 553 00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:03,119 were to run again and win, then Whatdent Harris, This 554 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,599 is a huge scandal, and the announcement from the bidens yesterday, 555 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:11,639 do not mitigate that you don't get a pass, and 556 00:36:11,679 --> 00:36:15,639 the people around him sure is held up. All right. 557 00:36:15,639 --> 00:36:18,000 That'll do it for this episode. Thank you so much 558 00:36:18,039 --> 00:36:20,079 for listening.
