Episode Date: May 19, 2025Keith Edwards discusses the cruel and mean-spirited reactions from the right to President Biden's cancer diagnosis and decision to step down.

I'm frankly disgusted by the way that Joe Biden, if you don't know, he was diagnosed with cancer.
We found out yesterday. It's made its way into the bone, which is very serious.
And I have nothing but prayers and love being sent to the Biden family.
Because they're going to need it.
Because what they're getting from on the right is disgusting.
And actually, some people on the left.
And honestly, people are shocked by what Donald Trump said.
But what's going on here is that a former president has told us that he is likely dying.
Okay?
He is likely dying.
We're going to hope that he gets through this.
But from what I understand, this is not something where people come out of it 70% of the time.
It's actually quite the opposite.
I think it's 30% survival rate when it gets to this point.
So keep that in mind because the right has been saying disgusting things.
This is Joe Biden's White House physician Kevin O'Connor subpoena him.
Ask him if he did a cancer screening.
When he pleased a fifth, that's all you need to know.
Okay.
That's like a new, like conspiracy thing on the right now.
Like they knew, like Biden knew he had cancer for 10 years.
Laura Lumer said,
Biden tried to assassinate Trump
and everyone knows it. What?
She's tweeting this at 3 in the morning, by the way.
Why should people care about saying mean things about Biden
and his degenerate family?
Everyone knows Biden tried to kill Trump.
It's why they still haven't released the Butler report.
They missed.
Donald Trump Jr. said this.
What I want to know, and this is truly the stupidest shit I've ever
heard in my entire life. What I want to know is how did Jill Biden, Dr. Jill Biden,
missed stage five metastatic cancer, or is this yet another cover-up? And then he got community
noted here. Biden's cancer was reported that New York Times is characterized by Gleason's score
of nine. Trump Jr. misconstrued this as stage five cancer. NBC 10, Philadelphia
reports that his diagnosis indicates he's stage four.
Harry's this in here.
You are a pathetic excuse for a human being.
Go fuck yourself.
That's awesome.
Oh, no.
Someone else goes, your whole family has a cancer on America.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And can someone just remind Donald Trump Jr., this fucking idiot,
that a doctor doesn't necessarily mean medical doctor.
It could be a doctorate in some sort of stuff.
I believe she has a doctorate in education, not cancer.
What an idiot.
Laura Lumer, not letting up, says,
she's a fake doctor. I'm shocked.
She's a fake doctor.
She's not even a doctor.
She's fake.
I am shocked Ashley Biden didn't check Joe's prostate
while they were in the shower together.
Just really normal stuff.
Hank Green said this, and I think this is important for us to know.
Hello.
Hello. In case you were wondering about this, because false positives are so common,
and prostate cancers tend to grow very slowly, doctors do not usually recommend
paroxic cancer screening for men over 70. Someone else said most require no treatment. My father's
able to live with it without issue. It's rare to be so aggressive. So this whole thing of like,
he knew, he knew, he knew, he did not know. It's, and he's telling us as soon as he found out.
Brian Stelter, who's a CNN reporter, turned off comments after he wrote this.
Extraordinary timing, according to the spokesman, Biden received this cancer diagnosis on Friday.
The same day audio clips of Robert Her interview were all over the news.
That's how he related to this.
He was like, wow, when Biden found out he was getting cancer, there were also tapes leaking.
Like, what?
that's what you want to tweet about?
You want to tweet about tapes
from an interview?
Fox News is actually being measured about this.
If you don't know, Jake Tabard, Alex Thompson,
who is a reporter for Axios and Jake Tapp of course is with CNN,
have a book coming out that says that Biden's, you know,
mind was weakening during his presidency,
and there was a huge vast cover.
Well, Fox News actually suggested that Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson postponed their book.
This case, this is stage four, and there is no stage five as far as Joe Biden's concerned.
You bought up the book before as far as Jake Tapper, Alex Thompson of Axios, Jake Tapper of CNN.
They're going to go on a major book tour this week, which is comprised of, I just got off a book tour,
dozens of interviews about this. I just wonder now if that's something that in terms of the
questions about Joe Biden's cognitive decline, which was very clear to all of us for many
years, if that's something now that, do you see Tapper Thompson, the people that are
doing this book, stepping back a bit and showing some respect for the former president in terms
of not going as heavy as they may have, considering what the president is going through right now,
the former president Joe Biden.
I think it's certainly a conversation that they're probably having with their publicists.
I mean, how do you go at a guy who's, you know, essentially dying of cancer?
He's 82.
This case, this is state.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I, and I was actually shocked that Donald, now, I don't, I do not believe Donald Trump wrote this at all.
I don't believe Donald Trump wrote this.
But it was very normal.
Melania and I are sadden to hear about Joe Biden's recent medical diagnosis.
We extend our warmness and best wishes to Jill and the family, and we wish Joe a fast and successful recovery.
First off, normal spelling, very, like, this is definitely not written by Donald Trump, but it was actually the most measured thing coming out of the right was from Donald Trump's account, regardless of whether or not he wrote or not.
And I just got to say that Donald Trump spent years attacking Joe Biden's health and saying he was diminished.
And so truly, I don't think they need your best wishes, Donald Trump.
It probably would have been best for you to say nothing at all, quite frankly.
I want to end with this.
I want to end with the Biden's.
here's what joe biden posted earlier today an hour ago cancer touches us all like so many of you
jill and i have learned that we are strongest in the broken places thank you for lifting us up
with love and support and there's um joe biden dr jill biden and their cat there um i don't know these
I just see people now.
These are people going through a really hard time.
This woman has been through so much.
You can see the pain in her eyes.
And she does not deserve any more pain at all,
especially during this time in her life
when she's likely losing her husband.
And I can't even imagine what it must feel like
to see the person you love dying.
And then folks on the right,
happy about it and coming up with conspiracy theories it's disgusting i just want to say i i do i do pray
for joe biden i hope he has a speedy recovery um and i pray for their family and no one deserves
what they're going through right now
