Joe Biden Diagnosed With Aggressive Prostate Cancer, Office Confirms

Yep, you read that right. Joe Biden — former President, current Scranton soul of America, and ice cream connoisseur — has been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer.

His office confirmed the news on Sunday, sending political Twitter (X) into a minor tailspin and family group chats buzzing with “Did you hear?” energy.

The 82-year-old’s doctors reportedly caught the cancer during a routine check-up. Things escalated when scans revealed it had spread to his bones, making it an aggressive form of prostate cancer — a Gleason score of 9, which basically means it’s not messing around.

But there’s a twist: it’s hormone-sensitive. Translation? Still treatable. Still fightable. Game not over.

Biden’s team says he’s consulting with doctors to explore treatment options. Think hormone therapy, think radiation — standard protocol for this kind of diagnosis.

ABC News, AP, and Sky News all confirmed the details. No cloak-and-dagger drama here. Just facts, delivered with Biden’s signature steel-eyed resolve.

This hits close to home for Biden. If you remember, he launched the Cancer Moonshot initiative after losing his son Beau to brain cancer in 2015. Now, he’s facing his own cancer battle. The irony stings, but so does life sometimes.

No word yet on how this affects his public appearances, but you can bet the man who faced down Corn Pop isn’t backing down anytime soon.

For now, Biden’s hunkering down with family and his medical team. If history’s any guide, he’ll fight this with the same grit he’s shown for half a century in politics.

Cue the Rocky theme.
