‘Feeling Good', Joe Biden Says In First Remarks About Cancer Diagnosis

Last Updated: Speaking to reporters after the Memorial Day event, he said he was already undergoing treatment for cancer, which entailed taking a pill, he said. Former President Joe Biden delivered the first remarks since he announced he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer Friday, speaking in a steady voice during a sombre Memorial Day gathering and later smiling and saying he's 'feeling good." Biden spoke at an annual gathering marking Memorial Day at Veterans Memorial Park in his home state of Delaware, not far from his home in Wilmington. The event coincided with the 10th anniversary of his son Beau's death. It also comes amid renewed questions about Biden's mental and physical health after the recent publication of a book about his fitness for office. Speaking to reporters after the Memorial Day event, he said he was already undergoing treatment for cancer, which entailed taking a pill, he said. 'The expectation is we're gonna be able to beat this," he said. 'I'm feeling good." Biden dropped his reelection bid in July 2024 after a disastrous debate against Donald Trump, after which those in his party questioned whether he could continue as the party's nominee. Questions about his decline and how the White House staff reacted to it are at the centre of a recent book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, which has renewed the debate. Asked Friday if he had a response to recent questions about his mental and physical health, he smiled and engaged with the reporter. 'You can see I'm mentally incompetent and I can walk and I can beat the hell out of both of them," he said. In response to Democrats who question whether he should have initially run for reelection at all, he said: 'Why didn't they run against me then? Because I'd have beaten them." During his formal remarks, he called upon the group to remember the sacrifices of those lost in battle, whose echoes he said can still be heard. He also spoke of his son, Beau, who died at 46 of brain cancer. A twice-elected state attorney general, Beau Biden was considering a run for governor, and his death deeply affected the elder Biden. 'This day is the 10th anniversary of the loss of my son Beau, who spent a year in Iraq, and, to be honest, it's a hard day," the former president said. 'Being with all of you, quite frankly, makes things a little bit easier, it really does. So, thank you for allowing me to grieve with you." Watch India Pakistan Breaking News on CNN-News18.

'Making My Life Miserable': Canada Landlord On Tenants Flying Khalistani Flag, Skipping Rent

Last Updated: Landlord Raman Kumar said five students moved in October 2024, paid rent till December, but stopped paying the monthly rent and utility bills from January A landlord in Canada's Ontario is facing serious distress after his tenants, alleged supporters of the Khalistan movement, have reportedly not paid rent or utility bills since January this year. The matter was brought to light by independent journalist Nitin Chopra, who shared a video report on social media platform X, including interviews and footage from the property. 'Another Victim Landlord in #Ontario Tenants have not paid rent since Jan 2025, not paying Utilities bill either What a Landlord should do? When can we fix the system ? Enough is Enough!," Chopra wrote in his post. Chopra also shared visuals of the rented property, where a Khalistan flag can be clearly seen tied to a post outside the house. The property owner, Raman Kumar, told Chopra that five students moved into the house in October 2024 and paid rent till December. Since January, however, they have stopped paying the monthly rent, which Kumar says is around 3,300 Canadian dollars, as well as utility bills. 'I'm paying the mortgage, property tax, and insurance out of my own pocket," Kumar said. 'This is putting me under extreme mental stress. I myself live in a rented house and have my own expenses. These tenants are making my life miserable." Kumar also claimed that the Khalistan flag tied outside the house was put up without his permission. 'I am very scared by these kinds of activities, and the neighbourhood is also unhappy," he said. 'Authorities need to intervene. We've always lived peacefully as a community, and this is creating unnecessary tensions." Kumar alleged that while he rented the home to five people, he believes more individuals are living there. 'I can't give the exact number, but there are a lot of people coming and going," he added. The landlord further claimed the tenants have been disturbing the neighbourhood, especially at night, and local residents have lodged complaints. Although Kumar has taken legal steps to address the situation, he said the process is slow. 'I've started legal proceedings, but it will take time," he noted.
