Trump Questions Timing of Biden's Cancer Disclosure: “Why Did It Take So Long?”
Trump Questions Timing of Biden's Cancer Disclosure: “Why Did It Take So Long?” U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed skepticism and concern over the timing of the announcement regarding President Joe Biden’s recent cancer diagnosis. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump said he was “surprised the public wasn’t notified a long time ago” after Biden was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has reportedly spread to his bones. Biden, 82, was confirmed on Friday to be suffering from a serious case of prostate cancer, with medical assessments assigning a Gleason score of nine. This rating, which runs from two to ten, is used to evaluate how abnormal cancer cells are compared to healthy tissue and indicates that Biden’s cancer is among the most aggressive types. “I think it’s very sad, actually,” Trump said when asked about the diagnosis. “I’m surprised the public wasn’t notified a long time ago because to get to stage nine, that’s a long time.” Trump also cast doubt on the transparency surrounding Biden’s health and raised questions about the involvement of medical professionals. “I think that, if you take a look, it's the same doctor that said that Joe was cognitively fine... there was nothing wrong with him,” Trump claimed. “Well... if it's the same doctor who said there was nothing wrong there... that's been proven to be a sad situation.” Other presidents, including Donald Trump, have undergone and released their prostate screening results. The president implied there may be more to the story than the public has been told. “In other words, there are things going on that the public wasn’t informed of,” he said. “And that’s very dangerous.” Trump’s remarks also touched on his own recent medical evaluation. “I just had a very complete physical test which included cognitive tests,” he said. “I’m proud to announce I aced it.” Biden had been campaigning for re-election against Trump before withdrawing following a widely criticized debate performance that intensified scrutiny over his mental fitness. That debate included a now-infamous gaffe in which Biden mistakenly referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as “President Putin” during a NATO summit. Referencing the diagnosis timeline, Trump questioned both the length of time the cancer may have been developing and the delay in disclosing it. “The other thing you have to say is why did it take so long? I mean... this takes a long time, can take years to get to this level of danger,” he said. “I think people should try and find out what happened... Maybe it was the same doctor and somebody is not telling the facts. That’s a big problem.” It remains unclear whether Trump was questioning the time it took for Biden to receive his diagnosis or the time it took for that diagnosis to be shared with the public. Regardless, his comments have added fuel to ongoing debates over the transparency and health of America’s oldest-ever sitting president. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Sky News 2025-05-21 -

Andrew and Tristan Tate Expected to Be Extradited to UK After Romanian Trial
Andrew and Tristan Tate Expected to Be Extradited to UK After Romanian Trial Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan are reportedly set to be extradited to the United Kingdom following the conclusion of their ongoing criminal trial in Romania, where they are facing serious charges including rape, human trafficking, and the formation of an organised criminal group. This development was reportedly confirmed by UK Security Minister Dan Jarvis, marking the first public acknowledgement by a British government official of the possibility that the Tates will be returned to the UK to face justice. Currently, the brothers are involved in court proceedings in Bucharest, where Romanian authorities have kept them under investigation for an array of alleged offences involving the exploitation of women. Despite ongoing legal action in Romania, the UK has not dropped its own interest in the case. It has emerged that Bedfordshire Police previously secured a warrant for the arrest of the brothers in relation to allegations of rape and human trafficking in Britain. The Crown Prosecution Service, however, declined to bring charges against the Tates back in 2019. Despite that decision, four women are now suing the brothers in civil court, further intensifying legal scrutiny on them within the UK. Security Minister Jarvis, as reported by The Telegraph, stated that Andrew, 38, and Tristan, 36, would be “surrendered” to British authorities after the conclusion of their Romanian trial. “Surrendered” is a legal term used in international extradition cases and signals an intent by Romanian authorities to hand the men over once their obligations under Romanian law have been fulfilled. The issue of whether the Tates would ever be returned to the UK has been a matter of speculation until now. Romanian judges had earlier rejected the idea of deporting the brothers before they stood trial in Romania. The latest revelations from Jarvis indicate that British authorities are coordinating closely with their Romanian counterparts to ensure the brothers are held accountable under UK law as well. The case also arrives at a time when Andrew Tate’s controversial public persona continues to attract criticism in the UK, particularly for his influence on young men and boys. Critics argue that his online content promotes toxic masculinity and fuels misogyny in schools and online spaces. The growing concern over the cultural impact of social media figures like Tate has become a broader political and social issue in the UK, leading to discussions around regulation and digital responsibility. Though no official timeline has been provided for their extradition, the statement by Jarvis suggests a firm intention by the British government to pursue further legal action once the Romanian legal process concludes. Until then, the brothers remain under the jurisdiction of Romanian authorities as the courts there determine the outcome of the criminal charges they currently face.
