On Tuesday, CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios’ Alex Thompson are set to release Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, It’s Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again — a book that claims to blow the lid off the very cover-up they both helped perpetuate. But Tapper and Thompson’s decision to allow their sources to hide behind the veil of anonymity is even more scandalous in light of Biden’s cancer diagnosis.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,” a statement released Sunday by Biden’s office said. “On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone.”

The statement said the cancer is a “more aggressive form” but “appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.”

But even that statement covers up the truth, at least according to Dr. Zeke Emanuel, who said Monday on MSNBC that it’s extremely likely Biden had this cancer while in office.

“[Biden] did not develop [cancer] in the last 100, 200 days. He had it while he was president. He probably had it at the start of his presidency in 2021,” Emanuel said. “I don’t think there’s any disagreement about that.”

After years of the propaganda press’ spin and gaslighting, we now know that Biden wasn’t just cognitively impaired — but likely gravely ill. And yet, the people who enabled this crisis, like Cabinet members, remain nameless in Tapper and Thompson’s book — free from accountability.
