Former President Joe Biden likely had prostate cancer the entire time he was President, doctors and cancer experts told the Daily Caller.
The 46th POTUS received a diagnosis of an “aggressive” form of prostate cancer Friday which spread to his bones, Biden’s personal office announced Sunday.
Doctors who spoke to the Daily Caller indicated that metastastization from prostate cancer to the bones typically takes at least five years.
“It’s not credible that we are hearing of his metastatic disease for the first time because he was having difficulty urinating and they found it. That just doesn’t track,” Dr. Steven Quay, a physician, scientist and member of the American Association for Cancer Research, told the Caller.
Doctors apparently found the initial cancer, a nodule on his prostate, in mid-May after Biden was having trouble urinating, Biden’s office said in their statement.
“If you’re diagnosed because of symptoms with prostate cancer, that means it’s already advanced,” Republican North Carolina Rep. Greg Murphy, who is also a board-certified urologist, told the Caller.
“Nodules don’t pop up in four months,” Murphy said. “And cancer generally does not appear de novo out of four months also. So it begs the question: was he screened for this or not?”
Of the three public medical reports that Biden’s personal doctor Kevin O’Connor released, none mentioned screenings for prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is typically diagnosed through a combination of a rectal examination and a Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) test, Murphy explained.
In 2018, the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF) changed its recommendation on PSAs, recommending against PSAs for men over aged 70.
Murphy condemned this change as wrong and criticized the USPSTF for not including any urologists in their decision, arguing that conducting a PSA should still be considered part of the highest standard of care.
“Normally 80 year old men are not screened for prostate cancer, but someone running for the highest position in the world, I would submit, should have been screened for it or at least looked into,” he told the Caller.
Dr. Quay concurred with Murphy’s assessment on PSAs. (RELATED: President Trump, Melania Issue Statement On Joe Biden’s Cancer Diagnosis)
“The highest standard of care is this simple blood test where you can measure PSA. So whether you act on it is a separate decision, but not taking it, it would be malpractice,” he told the Caller.
Quay considered it highly unlikely that Biden was not receiving PSA tests. He also told the Caller that, if Biden had been getting PSAs, it was also unlikely that his levels were normal at any point in the past 5 years.
“It’s literally in the single digit and probably under 5% percent probability that he has had normal PSAs for the last five to six years and then now has metastatic disease. Yes, it happens. It’s 1% 2% 3%. We have to believe that they’ve known his PSA was creeping up.”
Prostate cancer is the easiest cancer to diagnose when it first starts and to watch it progress to bone metastases. The PSA blood test shows the rate of cancer cell growth. For even with the most aggressive form, it is a 5-7 year journey without treatment before it becomes…

Biden’s office noted in their statement that the cancer “appears to be” responsive to hormones, a detail Murphy also said likely means his diagnosis came at least a month earlier than the statement claims.
“It’s been said Biden’s prostate cancer is ‘hormone sensitive’, it takes at least 5 weeks to figure this out with a medicine called Firmagon. So his original diagnosis was at the latest about 6 weeks ago,” Murphy wrote in a Monday morning X post.

Murphy also told the Caller that the diagnosis is completely separate from the questions that surrounded Biden’s presidency about his cognitive fitness and any actions taken by those around him in response. He wanted to steer clear of speculation but did acknowledge that there were questions.
“I don’t want this to be going in the realm that there’s been also a huge cover up from but that’s what the atmosphere is going on right now. You just have to wonder how many people were complicit in hiding some of the things that happened with President Biden. I think that’s kind of aside from this diagnosis, but still,” Murphy said.
The media and the American public have been hyper-focused on the transparency and forthcomingness of Biden’s administration and those closest to him following the release of Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson’s book “Original Sin,” which details numerous private concerns from those around Biden about his health.
One such person who expressed concerns, the book alleges, was Dr. O’Connor, Biden’s personal doctor who publicly said that Biden was “fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.”
Privately, O’Connor worried about Biden, pushing for him to get more rest, even floating the idea of putting him in a wheelchair, according to Thompson and Tapper.
Other doctors took to the airwaves Monday morning, many of them concurring with Murphy and Quay.
“Oh, he’s had this for many years,” Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, a breast oncologist, told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
Megyn Kelly stunned as top doctor blows a hole in timeline of Biden’s cancer diagnosis
Dr. David Samadi, a board-certified urologist and expert in prostate cancer treatment suggested there had either been a serious medical oversight or a deliberate attempt to withhold the truth from the public
Megyn Kelly appeared completely stunned after a prominent cancer specialist appeared on her show publicly questioning the official timeline of former President Joe Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis.
Dr. David Samadi, a board-certified urologist and expert in prostate cancer treatment suggested there had either been a serious medical oversight or a deliberate attempt to withhold the truth from the public.
Samadi appeared on The Megyn Kelly Show to analyze the announcement on Sunday that the former president has been diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer with metastasis.
The condition was described in a family statement as ‘hormone-sensitive’ and ‘manageable,’ but Dr. Samadi said the reported timing of the diagnosis does not align with how the disease typically progresses or is confirmed.
‘The story doesn’t make any sense,’ Dr. Samadi said bluntly during Monday’s interview. ‘This has been cooking for many years.
‘In general, it takes probably over the last decade or so for something like this to grow.’
According to the Biden family’s account, doctors recently discovered a nodule on the prostate, conducted a biopsy, and determined the disease was advanced but manageable, all in what appears to be a span of just several days.
Samadi, who has treated thousands of prostate cancer patients, expressed deep skepticism.
Dr. David Samadi, a board-certified urologist and expert in prostate cancer treatment suggested there had either been a serious medical oversight or a deliberate attempt to withhold the truth from the public.
‘From diagnosis to treatment to all of that within one week… the story doesn’t make any sense,’ he said.
Central to Samadi’s concern is the absence of public information about Biden’s PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) testing history.
A PSA test is a simple blood test used to screen for prostate cancer.
Biden’s most recent physical, released in February 2024, did not mention whether a PSA test had been conducted and The White House has not disclosed when Biden’s cancer was first detected.
Samadi said that it would be highly unusual, if not medically negligent, for someone in Biden’s position not to receive regular PSA screenings.
‘Someone like him, who was just the president, there’s no way in the world that their doctors would just not look at PSA and not look at the PSA in the last many years and just say, “Well, he’s old enough and there’s no indication to do this.” That doesn’t happen,’ he said.
While some physicians may choose not to recommend PSA screening for men over 80 due to the slower-growing nature of many prostate cancers, Samadi stressed that Biden, given his public role, family history of cancer, and long-standing access to elite medical care, should not have been overlooked.
‘He’s had at least 30 to 40 years of PSA history,’ Samadi said. ‘They check their cholesterols, their hearts, they check from top to bottom.’
Dr. Samadi also took issue with the Biden family’s statement describing the cancer as ‘hormone-sensitive,’ a classification that typically takes weeks to verify through treatment response.
‘You have to give the injections and see if the patient responds,’ he explained.
‘We don’t know what his PSA is. If the PSA starts to go down, then that’s when you know that he’s hormone-sensitive. I don’t know how they would be able to give all of this information so quickly.’
He called the assertion ‘impossible to know in a matter of days,’ adding that hormone-sensitive diagnosis requires observation over time to confirm the cancer responds to androgen deprivation therapy.
Kelly, reacting to Samadi’s analysis, said the timeline being presented to the public may be dangerously misleading.
‘If this is not true, this is a pernicious lie,’ Kelly said.
‘We definitely should not be putting out into the ecosphere a message that it’s a thing – you’re fine, and then four months later you have metastatic prostate cancer that’s in your bones.’
Samadi agreed that the medical progression as described is not plausible without years of prior buildup.
Kelly, visibly stunned, asked: ‘So you’re saying this doesn’t happen in one year? That he would have had this for five to seven years?’
‘That’s correct,’ Samadi responded.’It’s not a typical story where within a year you would end up with stage four prostate cancer.’
Samadi acknowledged two possible scenarios: that either Biden and his doctors failed to detect the cancer years ago, or they did detect it and chose not to disclose it until now.
‘Either he knew about it or he didn’t,’ he said. ‘That’s a whole different political issue.’
Samadi suggested another possibility that Biden may have been diagnosed with a less aggressive form of prostate cancer a decade ago and placed under surveillance, a common approach in lower-risk cases.
Over time, it could have progressed to a more dangerous form.
‘Maybe he had 10 or 12 years ago a moderate-risk prostate cancer and they told him, “Just watch this—it’s not aggressive,”‘ Samadi said. ‘And over time it advanced to Gleason 9 and then unfortunately metastases.’
The White House has not responded to questions about whether Biden had previously been diagnosed with any form of prostate cancer, nor whether he had been under any kind of monitoring or surveillance.
Samadi said that stage 4 prostate cancer typically requires immediate and aggressive intervention, including hormone therapy and possibly chemotherapy.
He also warned of the side effects associated with such treatments, which can include heart complications and cognitive decline – factors that would have been particularly consequential for an 82-year-old serving as Commander-in-Chief.
‘Once you get to stage four, unfortunately, it’s a painful experience with a lot of complications from this hormonal treatment,’ Samadi said.
‘Some of these hormonal treatments not only can affect his heart but can affect his mental status and mental health issues.’
Samadi, who once served as the Chief of Robotics and Minimally Invasive Surgery at Mount Sinai in New York, emphasized that prostate cancer is highly treatable if caught early. But he said that is what makes the Biden case so troubling.
‘If you find the cancer within the walls of the prostate, the cure – 10-year survival – is close to 100%,’ he noted.
‘Once it starts to leak beyond that, you go to radiation, hormone treatment, and then chemotherapy.’
‘This is not just about one man’s health. This is about what the American public deserves to know,’ Kelly added.

Cash Flowing Into Anti-ICE Group’s Coffers Came From Chinese Gov’t-Linked Sources
Numerous Chinese government-linked entities have bankrolled a nonprofit accused of offering tips on how to evade federal immigration authorities, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation found.
House Republicans recently launched an investigation into the Chinese-American Planning Council (CPC) — a New York-based nonprofit that’s been awarded over $1.4 million in tax-payer dollars since 2022 — after an undercover video surfaced purportedly showing CPC staff coaching illegal immigrants on how to avoid Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) apprehension. A review of CPC’s financial records discovered Chinese government-linked sources have been pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars into the nonprofit in recent years, raising concerns of potential foreign obstruction of U.S. immigration enforcement.
“I’m deeply concerned that Americans’ hard-earned taxpayer dollars were potentially used by an NGO [non-governmental organization] to help illegal aliens subvert our nation’s laws,” Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green, a Republican from Tennessee, told the DCNF.
“Even more troubling is the Chinese-American Planning Council’s alleged ties to the [CCP] — a regime we know is committed to undermining U.S. sovereignty,” Green continued. “This Committee will continue investigating suspicious activities by NGOs to protect taxpayer dollars from supporting those who make a mockery of our laws.”
