In 2022, President Joe Biden stated during a speech near a former coal plant that he and others he grew up with “have cancer,” attributing it to pollution.
The remark was widely reported, sparking confusion about his health.
Fact-checkers clarified he was referencing past non-melanoma skin cancers removed before his presidency. The White House cited a physician’s report confirming no current signs of skin cancer.
However, the video resurfaced after Biden’s recent cancer diagnosis, prompting critics like Donald Trump Jr. and others to accuse the media and White House of covering up his condition.
The White House has not addressed the renewed scrutiny.
