Mediaite - BREAKING: Biden Undergoes Prostate Evaluation After ‘Small Nodule’ Discovered

Former President Joe Biden spent last Friday in a Philadelphia hospital after doctors discovered a “small nodule” on his prostate that required “further evaluation,” his spokesman confirmed.
No additional details were provided, according to the New York Times, although the outlet noted that it is common for a man of Biden’s age to experience prostate issues.
Biden, who left office in January as the oldest sitting president in U.S. history, faced relentless scrutiny over his age and physical fitness during his time in the White House and his short bid for 2024 re-election. Pressures over his health and his performance during a debate with Donald Trump ultimately played a key role in his decision to bow out of the race.
