Chronology of President Biden & Co. classified document saga

 The discovery of classified documents in President Biden's possession was covered up from the public for months, at least.

Nov. 2, 2022: Biden Discovery #1 "Roughly" 10 classified documents are reportedly found at Biden's "Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement" in Washington DC. Biden's lawyer claimed other Biden lawyers "Were packing files housed in a locked closet to prepare to vacate office space" when the documents were discovered.

Jan. 12: Biden Discovery #4 Five more pages of classified documents are reportedly discovered at Biden's Delaware home, though the discovery is not revealed to the public at this time.

Biden's lawyer says he, the lawyer, had traveled there "To facilitate providing the document the President's personal counsel found on Wednesday to the Justice Department" and that "While I was transferring it to the officials who accompanied me, five additional pages with classification markings were discovered among the material with it, for a total of six pages. The DOJ officials with me immediately took possession of them." Also on Thurs.

Jan. 12, Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland appoints the U.S. attorney in Chicago to see if an investigation should be opened into the Biden documents snafu.

According to a statement from a Biden attorney: "DOJ took possession of materials it deemed within the scope of its inquiry, including six items consisting of documents with classification markings and surrounding materials, some of which were from the President's service in the Senate and some of which were from his tenure as Vice President. DOJ also took for further review personally handwritten notes from the vice-presidential years." Tues Jan. 24: The earlier search of Pence's home and the classified documents found was made public.

Feb. 1: It's announced that the FBI is searching Biden's Rehoboth, Delaware home reportedly finding no additional classified documents.
