Critics, including Fox News host Jesse Watters, have begun calling for former President Joe Biden’s White House physician to be subpoenaed in the wake of Biden’s unusual late-stage prostate cancer diagnosis.
The emerging theory among the right and left — or at least among those on the left with any sense of honesty — is that someone purposefully kept Biden’s cancer diagnosis a secret for political reasons.
Speaking on Fox News’ “The Five” this Monday, Watters first suggested that this someone may have been Biden’s own White House physician, Kevin O’Connor, and then demanded that he be subpoenaed.

“This guy was brought in from Delaware, and he was in business with the Biden family, and this was the oldest president in American history, probably the sickest sitting president of this century, and he never gave a press conference,” he said. “In four years, O’Connor never came to the press and said, ‘This is what the president is dealing with.'”
“He needs to be brought in, he needs to be subpoenaed, and he needs to answer some of these questions. I can’t believe, if he had won, Joe Biden would have died in office, and Kamala would have been president, and the doctors and the media would have been like, ‘Oops, sorry, we missed it.’ Wow. Wow,” he added.
President Donald Trump’s former White House physician, Rep. Ronny Jackson, has also indicated that he believes O’Connor knew much more but purposefully remained silent.
“Care at the White House should be second to none,” he tweeted Sunday afternoon. “Unbelievable this was missed, but the truth is, his physician was more concerned about assisting with the political cover up than providing world class medical care.”
These theories all center around the fact that it can take years for prostate cancer to spread to the bones, as it has for Biden.
Dr. Zeke Emanuel says Biden definitely had prostate cancer for “more than several years” if it spread to his bone:

This means there’s no way that Biden wouldn’t have known he had prostate cancer. Either he knew and lied to the American people so he could remain president and run again in 2024, or others like O’Connor knew and lied to him, the then-president, to ostensibly protect him.
Indeed, urologist Dr. David Shusterman told NewsNation that the only way someone could contract prostate cancer in the bones without knowing it is if they’d gone 10 years without any medical exams.
“This is what I typically would see in a VA hospital, where a patient hasn’t had medical attention in 10 years, presents to an emergency room with bone pain, and then they find that it’s metastatic prostate cancer,” he said.

Physician Dr. Steven Quay added in a social media post that it would be “medical malpractice” to not notice this cancer for 10 years.
“Prostate cancer is the easiest cancer to diagnose when it first starts and to watch it progress to bone metastases,” he explained. “The PSA blood test shows the rate of cancer cell growth. For even with the most aggressive form, it is a 5-7 year journey without treatment before it becomes metastatic.”
“Meaning, it would be malpractice for this patient to show up and be first diagnosed with metastatic disease in May 2025. It is highly likely he was carrying a diagnosis of prostate cancer throughout his White House tenure, and the American people were uninformed,” he added.

Over on Fox News, meanwhile, Watters concluded the segment on “The Five” by blasting the media for having pretended this whole time that Biden was as “healthy as an ox.”
“Since 2000, Joe Biden has broken his foot, he’s had skin cancer, he has had two horrible bouts with Covid-19, and then he was living as president with prostate cancer, and the entire media said he was healthy as an ox,” the Fox News host said.
