In a previous post, Griffin revealed she had opted for the surgery to alleviate complications suffered during lung cancer surgery.
According to Entertainment Tonight, the comedian revealed she had been diagnosed with cancer in August of 2021, but later that year she said she was cancer-free.

The prior surgery for her cancer, which removed half of Griffin’s left lung, had left her left vocal cord “permanently paralyzed,” she said.
This more recent surgery involved putting an implant in the old, damaged vocal cord.
The comedian said she will not be able to talk for two weeks following the surgery.
“So, anyway, I’m never nervous before surgery and I’ve had quite a few. But I am a little nervous about this one ’cause it’s my voice and I’ve already gone through it once with the voice problem,” Griffin said on Instagram.

“Anyway, wish me luck, and I can’t talk at all for two weeks, which is going to drive me crazy. So I’ll be watching a lot of TikTok, and I won’t be making any.”
Griffin, a progressive celebrity, has made headlines time and time again for her political stunts.
In 2017, she was forced to apologize for sharing a photo of herself holding up a fake, decapitated head that looked like President Donald Trump’s.

In late 2023, Griffin and other celebrities hosted a “salon” for controversial transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney.

An Important Message from Our Staff:
In just a few months, the world is going to change forever. The 2024 election is the single most important election of our lifetime.
We here at The Western Journal are committed to covering it in a way the establishment media simply will not: We will tell the truth, and they will lie.
But Big Tech and the elites don’t want the truth out. That’s why they have cut us off from 90% of advertisers. Imagine if someone cut your monthly income by 90%. That’s what they’ve done to people like us.
