Dilbert creator reveals he has same aggressive cancer as Biden and only has months to live
The creator of the Dilbert comics, Scott Adams, has announced he is living with the same type of aggressive cancer as former President Joe Biden. During a Rumble Studio livestream on Monday, the 67-year-old cartoonist revealed to his followers that he 'has prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones.' 'But, I've had it longer than [Biden's] had it. Well, longer than he's admitted having it,' Adams said. 'So my life expectancy is maybe the summer. I expect to be checking out from this domain sometime this summer.' Adams's health update comes the day after news broke that Biden, 82, had been diagnosed with an 'aggressive' form of prostate cancer. '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,' a spokesperson for the veteran Democrat said in a statement. 'While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management,' the spokesperson added. 'The president and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians.' The ex-commander-in-chief issued his first public statement since his diagnosis was made public, writing Monday on Instagram: 'Cancer touches us all. Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.' While Biden's diagnosis has largely been met by an outpouring of support from fellow politicians, including President Donald Trump and celebrities, there have still been a number of Republicans and hard-right conservatives who have begun spreading conspiracy theories about Biden's cancer diagnosis. Scott Adams just revealed that he has prostate cancer. 😔 — The Gas Stove 🔥 (@TheGasStovee) May 19, 2025 Addressing the negativity aimed at Biden, Adams, who's been a vocal Trump supporter, said during the livestream: 'Having watched how people treated Joe Biden when the diagnosis came, people are really cruel. They are really bad. 'And I was expecting — and of course, this could happen — people are going to say that this is because I got the Covid shot. There's no indication that that makes a difference,' he clarified. 'People are going to say it's something I brought on myself; they're gonna say it's because I lived a bad life. But people are gonna be really, really terrible. So I wanted to reduce the number of months or weeks — I don't know what I have left, weeks or months — that people were going to be terrible to me online because it's gonna be kind of hard to spend any time online.' He continued: 'All of my enemies, in other words, people who are Democrats mostly, are gonna come after me pretty hard. So, I have to put up with that. But I'm ready for that. 'I am unusually mentally tough. So while this could be much worse for some people, I suppose, I am handling it quite well. The pain is tough, I mean really tough, but the mental part, you know, I've got that under control,' Adams added. 'But remember, nothing lasts forever.' Adams is famous for creating the popular comic strip Dilbert. Known for its satirical take on American corporate office culture, Dilbert was first published in 1989 and ran until 2023, when it was dropped from syndication by hundreds of U.S. newspapers after Adams went on a racist rant on his YouTube show, Coffee with Scott Adams. The Independent has reached out to Adams for comment.
