Biden says 'feeling good' in first remarks after cancer diagnosis

Former US President Joe Biden on Friday delivered his first remarks since announcing he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer, 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 came 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 event, Biden 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 following a disastrous debate against Donald Trump, after which those in his party questioned whether he could continu

Trump moves to end protections for immigrant children in federal custody

The Trump administration filed a motion on Thursday to end a policy cornerstone that since the 1990s has offered protections to child migrants in federal custody, in a move that likely will be challenged by advocates. The protections in place, known as the Flores Settlement, largely limit to 72 hours the amount of time that child migrants travelling alone or with family and detained by the US Border Patrol can be kept in US Customs and Border Protection custody. They also ensure the children are kept in safe and sanitary conditions. The Flores settlement is named for a Salvadoran girl, Jenny Flores, whose lawsuit alleging widespread mistreatment of children in custody in the 1980s prompted special oversight. This is the second time the federal government under Trump has attempted to end the policy. In August 2019, the first Trump administration asked a judge to dissolve the agreement. Its motion eventually was struck down in December 2020 by the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals. Und

Biden's 'last known' prostate cancer screening was in 2014, says his office

Former president Joe Biden's last known prostate cancer screening was in 2014, and he had never been diagnosed with the disease before last week, his office said Tuesday. Biden's aides released the new details about his diagnosis amid intense scrutiny of Biden's health during his presidency and skepticism that the disease could have progressed to an advanced stage without being detected. Although Biden's cancer can possibly be controlled with treatment, it has spread to his bones and is no longer curable. The brief statement from Biden's office did not disclose the results of his 2014 PSA blood test. PSA stands for prostate-specific antigen. President Biden's last known PSA was in 2014. Prior to Friday, President Biden had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer, the statement said in its entirety. Biden's cancer was announced on Sunday, prompting a wave of sympathy but also suggestions from some of his critics, including his successor Donald Trump, that the former president and

Trump's pardon attorney to review Joe Biden's end-of-term mercy decisions

Ed Martin Jr., who will be the Justice Department's new pardon attorney after President Donald Trump pulled his nomination to be the top federal prosecutor for Washington, said Tuesday that he plans to scrutinise pardons that former President Joe Biden issued on his way out of the White House. These are big moments, and so they have to be able to withstand scrutiny," Martin told reporters on Tuesday, his last full day as acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. Biden pardoned his siblings and their spouses in January on his last day in office. He also pardoned Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley and members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. None of them had been charged with any crime. The pardons were designed to guard against possible retribution by President Donald Trump. Trump pulled Martin's nomination last week amid bipartisan opposition and replaced him with Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, who is expected to be .

Biden blames Kamala Harris' loss on sexism, racism, rejects age concerns

Former President Joe Biden says he's responsible for Donald Trump's victory last fall, but he attributed Kamala Harris' loss, at least in part, to sexism and racism. Biden, who left office in January, addressed the Democrats' disastrous 2024 election, concerns about his age and Trump's divisive leadership during a Thursday interview on ABC's The View." The 82-year-old Democrat said he has intentionally avoided speaking out publicly until this week to give Trump more than 100 days in office without his interference, as is typically the tradition following a change in the White House. Asked about the last election, Biden said he was surprised by the role that he gender and race played in the contest. They went the sexist route, Biden said of criticism that a woman couldn't lead the country and a woman of mixed race. He added: I was in charge and he won, so I take responsibility." Biden has largely stepped away from national politics since leaving the White House. He's not expected

Trump exempts 70 coal plants from Biden-era rule on toxic air pollution

The Trump administration has granted nearly 70 coal-fired power plants a two-year exemption from federal requirements to reduce emissions of toxic chemicals such as mercury, arsenic and benzene. A list quietly posted as of Tuesday on the Environmental Protection Agency's website lists 47 power providers which operate at least 66 coal-fired plants that are receiving exemptions from the Biden-era rules under the Clean Air Act, including a regulation limiting air pollution from mercury and other toxins. The actions follow an executive order last week by President Donald Trump aimed at boosting the struggling coal industry, a reliable but polluting energy source that's long been in decline. Among plants receiving exemptions is the Colstrip Generating Station, a massive power plant in Colstrip, Montana, that emits more toxic air pollutants such as lead and arsenic than any other U.S. facility of its kind, according to the EPA. Other plants with exemptions include Coal Creek Station, a .
