WASHINGTON (AP) — A small nodule was found in the prostate of former President Joe Biden during a routine physical exam, a spokesperson said Tuesday. A short statement said the finding “necessitated further evaluation,” but it was not clear whether that had already taken place or the outcome of the examination.

Former President Joe Biden went to a hospital on Friday after a recent medical examination. Biden, 82, was examined at a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, hospital on Friday, according to The New York Times.

Jake Tapper, who is out with a new book about the cover-up of Joe Biden's health decline, admitted on CNN that he didn't cover the issue enough during his presidency.

A book co-written by the CNN host says Biden's team worried their boss would have to use a wheelchair if he won reelection.

Former President Joe Biden’s physical deterioration was severe enough in the second half of his presidency that his aides privately discussed putting him in a wheelchair for his second term, according to a new book from CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios’ Alex Thompson.
