Miranda and I had a meeting yesterday afternoon a little earlier than we anticipated because I had some stuff to do later on the afternoon.

And we were like, gosh, this is such a slow news day.

I guess we're going to talk about the Annabelle doll being moved a lot, which we was too.

And then later on in the afternoon, when my daughter was taking a nap, I got this alert from a friend that President Biden was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has, in fact, sadly spread to his bones.

He was reportedly diagnosed on Friday after experiencing, excuse me, urinary symptoms.

And we said we really need someone very serious and connected to the political landscape to come on and talk to us.

And luckily, our lovely friend Rachel Bade, who was a political, excuse me, Politico Capital Bureau Chief and Senior Washington columnist and an ABC contributing political correspondent.

Decided to come on the show. You can follow her on X at Rachel M. Bade and Instagram, Rachel underscore Bade.

Rachel, thank you so much for coming on, truly. Happy to be on X at Rachel M. Bade and Instagram Rachel underscore Bade. Rachel, thank you so much for coming on truly. Happy to be on X, Megan, anytime. So I want to tell you, when I got the news yesterday,

I was really, I was shocked and then very sad, obviously, and we want to just like really emphasize

anyone who has any kind of heart or conscience is obviously sad in sending their prayers of the Biden family.

And I just felt really, really discomforted about the whole thing.

And then I like sort of slept on it, listened to a bunch of podcasts, watched some news this morning.

And I just want to show you.

I saw this clip number two on Morning Joe this morning

from oncologist Dr. Zeke, excuse me, Emmanuel, who just, it's worth noting is Ari and Rahm Emanuel's

brother. He must have like the Royal Tenenbaum's family and Emmanuel company. But I want to show you

what he said about Dr. Excuse me, Joe Biden's diagnosis.

I believe it is likely if this prostate cancer has spread to the bone that he could have had it for up to a decade.

But certainly it's likely.
