when the video is playing on twitter, right-click it and you'll see a "Copy Video Address" pop-up. Click that and paste it into the prompt at the website above.

Submit that and then there will be an option to download. For me, in Chrome, it opens the video in a new tab. I then right-click that video and Save As... locally

I think Trump has spent more time working on "the tictok problem" then C-19.


The video is great but they skipped the fact that both Trump and Kushner were told of the virus
in Oct. or Nov. of 2019* and did nothing outside of investing into HCQ and his own brand of corona-
virus test kits (allegedly).


* We told the Israelis about it.

relate it to the fact that republicans/limbaugh used the ebola scare in oct 2014 to get 9 senate seats, maybe with russian help

limbaugh and trump have been working together since at least the primaries and are well coordinated. limbaugh would not have called covid a hoax for two months if trump did not want him to.

That's what they threw in our face to say how insensitive we were being when we objected to Trump giving the craven bigot the Medal of Freedom at the State of the Union.

But he hasn't missed a step since then. Is he even sick?

per Seth Abramson, when the US military briefed the White House on the virus in China.

"12/2019: More White House briefings. Trump permits pandemic clause in China trade negotiations.
January (first 72 hours): Latest date Trump gets first robust briefing."

Timeline of the Coronavirus Pandemic and U.S. Response
https://www.justsecurity.org/69650/timeline-of-the-coronavirus-pandemic-and-u-s-response/


Editor’s note: originally published on April 13, 2020, most recently updated on September 9, 2020.

What follows is a comprehensive timeline of major U.S. policy events related to the novel coronavirus pandemic. We’ve focused on the U.S. government’s preparation for a pandemic, tracking warning signals of COVID-19, and public and internal responses when the outbreak hit inside the United States.

In our view, the timeline is clear: Like previous administrations, the Trump administration knew for years that a pandemic of this gravity was possible and imminently plausible. Several Trump administration officials raised strong concerns prior to the emergence of COVID-19 and raised alarms once the virus appeared within the United States. While some measures were put in place to prepare the United States for pandemic readiness, many more were dismantled since 2017.

In response to COVID-19, the United States was slow to act at a time when each day of inaction mattered most–in terms of both the eventual public health harms as well as the severe economic costs. The President and some of his closest senior officials also disseminated misinformation that left the public less safe and more vulnerable to discounting the severity of the pandemic. When it came time to minimize the loss of life and economic damage, the United States was unnecessarily underprepared, had sacrificed valuable time, and confronted the pandemic with a more mild response than public health experts recommended. These lapses meant that the United States was ultimately forced to make more drastic economic sacrifices to catch up to the severity of the pandemic than would have otherwise been necessary.

Readers can reach their own conclusions based on these publicly available facts. If we have missed any key information, please notify us by sending an email to lte@justsecurity.org.
