Fox News panelist makes personal revelation while defending Biden
A Fox News panelist has made a startling personal revelation while defending former President Joe Biden's health fitness for office. During a heated exchange on MediaBuzz, Lucy Caldwell argued that Biden could have served after his cancer diagnosis before revealing a shocking personal confession. Caldwell then revealed that she is personally battling cancer at the moment. 'Clay is not a urologist or an oncologist,' Caldwell said. 'I am actively a cancer patient right now. I also feel great.' 'Cancer is a very complicated disease. It's very hard to speculate why he wasn't screened … I think that the idea that this was a coverup of a cancer diagnosis seems quite unlikely,' she said. Her comments came after conservative commentator Clay Travis argued that Biden would have been forced to resign due to his recent prostate cancer diagnosis. 'And I just think we're very lucky as a country that Donald Trump is in office because otherwise, I think Joe Biden would have to step down and Kamala Harris would be elevated,' Travis said. 'The idea that this was a massive cover up, we just don't know.' 'You don't know what is going on with your cancer from one moment to the next,' she said. 'Joe Biden was just diagnosed. The fact that his doctors don't have all the information does not necessarily reflect that there's a cover-up. 'Cancer is a treatment. They're all different. And it's evolving moment to moment. You don't know.' The host asked if Caldwell's cancer was diagnosed at an early stage, to which she replied 'No - it was not actually - it was stage three.' This comes after medical experts have questioned claims that failure to test Joe Biden for prostate cancer was a routine omission. Last week, the ex-president's office said the 82-year-old, who left office in January, was diagnosed with an 'aggressive' form of prostate cancer that spread to his bones. According to Biden's aides, doctors stopped testing his prostate-specific antigens in 2014, despite US guidelines that suggest all men over 70 require routine testing. Since the announcement of his diagnosis, several doctors have questioned how the vicious disease was not detected earlier in the former US president - who is supposed to have had access to some of the best medical care available. 'To take a blood test from a man over 50 and not do a PSA is practically an assault. It is the most male-specific health-related blood test you can do,' a senior surgeon told The Telegraph. 'If you get an abnormal result, then you do a scan (I imagine the White House has an MRI scanner) and then after that you do a biopsy. It is not as if we throw drugs at anyone with a high PSA, but I simply cannot envision a world where nobody at the White House ever ticked yes to a PSA test for him.' Biden's cancer announcement last week led to an outpouring support for the former commander-in-chief, though many remain skeptical about the timeline of his diagnosis.

'And we just saw that the nation, overwhelmingly, all 50 states, moved against her compared to 2020. We did not want her to be president.' 'So I'm thankful for Trump,' he continued. 'I feel like we dodged a bullet.' Shortly after, Caldwell revealed that she is personally battling cancer at the moment. 'Clay is not a urologist or an oncologist,' Caldwell fired back. 'I am actively a cancer patient right now. I also feel great.' The Democratic strategist then defended the former President, using her own experience with the disease.

Fresh humiliation for Angel Reese as WNBA star is offered $100k challenge after embarrassing clip went viral
The latest brand of humiliation for Angel Reese comes from conservative sports commentator Clay Travis, who has made a $100k challenge to her after her embarrassing Thursday night shooting performance. Reese came under fire after a clip went viral from the first quarter of the Chicago Sky's game against the New York Liberty. Reese squared off with Liberty post star Jonquel Jones in the viral clip, where the Sky star collects an offensive rebound and misses her first shot before getting the ball back and missing for a second time. Reese's third and fourth attempts at making a field goal were both met by Jones with a block. The former LSU star gives up at that point and passes the ball back to the perimeter. Reese's final stat line from the loss to the Liberty is not pretty - 0-for-8 on field goals, 2-for-6 from the free-throw line, a -25 in plus-minus, five turnovers, and only two points. 'Hey @Reese10Angel me vs you half court to 15 by 1's and 2's. $100k to the winner, more than you make in an entire WNBA season. Rebounds taken back to three point line. We put the game on pay per view and raise millions for charity of winner's choice. You in?' Travis said on social media. The only saving grace from the sophomore WNBA star was her dozen rebounds. Travis joins online rival Dave Portnoy in kicking Reese while she was down after last weekend's on-court incident with Caitlin Clark. Clark also was in action on Thursday night, in a rematch against the Atlanta Dream after Tuesday's loss to the franchise. Clark had her first game of the season where she did not look like the WNBA MVP, going 4-for-11 from the field, including 0-of-5 from 3-point range, against the Dream for 11 points. Indiana defeated Atlanta 81-76 with a fourth-quarter comeback to improve to 2-1 on the season. Clark entered Thursday's action the game coming off last weekend's on-court confrontation with rival Angel Reese that led to the WNBA opening a racism probe into Fever fans.

Dave Portnoy's Barstool Sports employs 'super libs with no testosterone who voted for Kamala Harris', claims bitter rival Clay Travis
Outkick founder Clay Travis dismissed Dave Portnoy's Barstool Sports as competition, as he claims the organization employs 'super libs with no testosterone', while his group does not. Barstool and Outkick are commonly lumped together for looking at sports through unique lenses which are not afraid to be controversial. Travis took a bitter swipe at Portnoy and his company by saying they're not the same with them not a single 'white dude who voted for [Kamala] Harris.' 'I'm actually stunned that we don't have competition because I feel like we created beer and no one else will share a competing beer,' Travis told Semafor Media. 'I don't really see [Barstool] as competition. No, I don't. Because I think if I were structuring the breakdown, first of all, Barstool employs a lot of people that are super libs. That would be the white dudes for Kamala. Nobody talks about it.' The interviewer then questioned Travis about employing liberals and asked if Outkick had a no-Democrats policy. 'Well, I don't think we have a white dude who voted for Harris,' Travis added. 'If we did good for them. I would question why their testosterone is so low, but they're able to vote for whoever they want.' Having Barstool lumped in as a left-leaning organization would piss Portnoy off, and make Democrats upset due to their founders support for President Donald Trump and bashing of their party over the years. Portnoy has not responded to Travis' comments, which were in part likely to drum up controversy, with lumps him in with Barstool more than he would like to admit. The Barstool boss has had a busy last week, beginning with a weekend firestorm where he has continually blasted student Mo Khan, who filmed a vile anti-Semitic sign at one of his bars in Philadelphia at the weekend. Portnoy ripped into Khan on Tuesday night after the Temple University student claimed to be the true 'victim' of the shocking anti-Semitic attack at Barstool Sansom Street, where a bottle service worker was seen holding up an illuminated sign that read 'F*** the Jews.' Then, Portnoy appeared on the 'BFFs' podcast and talked about the private lives of Bill Belichick and his 49-years-younger girlfriend Jordon Hudson. Harris has kept a lower profile since losing the presidential election last year to Trump.
