PolitiFact says: An issue page on Biden’s campaign website does use the term "crucial framework" to describe the Green New Deal. And Biden's timeline for emissions cuts is similar to the one laid out in the Green New Deal.
PolitiFact says: While the community policing program’s funding is lower than it was in the 1990s, it was never brought down to zero and remains in the neighborhood of $200 million a year.
FactCheck.org says: Reuters, citing CDC documents, wrote that CDC’s Beijing office “has shrunk to around 14 staffers, down from approximately 47 people since President Donald Trump took office in January 2017.”
FactCheck.org says: Trump said he assumed he might get COVID-19 because he has to meet with people and cannot always distance himself. He mentioned an event in honor of the families of deceased military veterans as one example.

PolitiFact says: Obama issued 1,927 pardons and commutations during his two terms.
