Default For the truth impaired



Here's another timeline I found that clearly identifies
events since "early" January. Very revealing considering
the current bitches and complaints about Trump:

January 11: Chinese state media report the first known death from an
(unknown) illness originating in the Wuhan market.

January 15: Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) holds a vote to
send articles of impeachment to the Senate. Pelosi and House Democrats
celebrate the “solemn” occasion with a signing ceremony, using
commemorative pens. That same day, the first person with coronavirus in
the United States arrives from China, where he had been in Wuhan.

January 21: The first American case of coronavirus is confirmed at a
clinic in Snohomish County, Washington.

January 23: The House impeachment managers make their opening arguments
for removing President Trump.

January 23: China closes off the city of Wuhan completely to slow the
spread of coronavirus to the rest of China.

January 27: The White House convenes a special task force to deal with
the emerging threat of coronavirus.

January 29: The president chairs a meeting of the White House
coronavirus task force for the first time.

January 30: Senators begin asking two days of questions of both sides in
the president’s impeachment trial.

January 30: The World Health Organization declares a global health
emergency as coronavirus continues to spread.

January 31: The Senate holds a vote on whether to allow further
witnesses and documents in the impeachment trial.

January 31: President Trump declares a national health emergency and
imposes a ban on travel to and from China. Former Vice President Joe
Biden calls Trump’s decision “hysterical xenophobia … and fear-mongering.”

February 2: The first death from coronavirus outside China is reported
in the Philippines.

February 3: House impeachment managers begin closing arguments, calling
Trump a threat to national security.

February 4: President Trump talks about coronavirus in his State of the
Union address; Pelosi rips up every page.

February 5: The Senate votes to acquit President Trump on both articles
of impeachment, 52-48 and 53-47.

February 5: House Democrats finally take up coronavirus in the House
Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia.

March 11: WHO declares covid-19 a pandemic.
