Political Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, known as “HasanAbi,”expressed his strong opinions regarding the recent announcement of former US President Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis. This reaction, shared in a post on the social platform X, accused the mainstream media of “laundering the reputation”of the Democratic leader just moments after an official announcement detailed his health condition. The May 18, 2025, statement revealed that Biden is facing an aggressive form of prostate cancer.
HasanAbi, who garnered attention recently for allegedly being detained by US Customs and Border Protection due to his political beliefs, did not hold back on his views of the former President. He branded Biden as a “monster”and leveled accusations at him for the actions taken during his presidency, specifically citing the ongoing conflict involving Palestinians.
In his post, he suggested that Biden’s “selfish nature”ultimately facilitated Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 Presidential Election. The political streamer articulated his sentiments through a pointed message, stating:
“the msm [mainstream media] is already actively laundering the reputation of a war criminal who oversaw the genocide of palestinians who’s selfish nature allowed trump to win a second term – joe biden is an awful monster. prostate cancer doesnt change that.”
Details of Joe Biden’s Cancer Diagnosis
On May 18, 2025, news outlets, including CNN, reported on the alarming confirmation of Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis. Recent health evaluations indicated that the 82-year-old politician sought medical assistance after noting “urinary symptoms,”leading to the discovery of a prostate nodule.
The official diagnosis, issued on May 16, highlighted that Biden’s condition had a Gleason score of 9, categorizing it as one of the more aggressive types of prostate cancer—indicating a more severe prognosis. Significantly, the cancer has reached his bones, a factor that raises concerns about the former President’s overall health:
“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone. While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive, which allows for effective management.”
The official communication reassured that, although the cancer is aggressive, its hormone-sensitive nature indicates that it can be managed effectively. To date, Joe Biden has not publicly commented on his diagnosis.
