If something goes down 10% and then up 10% are you back where you started?

No because the decrease is from a bigger number.

E.g., 100 - 10 =90 + 9 = 99

No matter how many EOs Trump signs, they do not become law. Only Congress can pass laws.

The ADA is law.

This matters to EVERYONE. If you don’t need it now, wait.
The Trump Regime has deleted DOJ guidance to businesses on complying with the Americans With Disabilities Act.

25% of Americans live with a disability.

Trump cannot delete the ADA, and he cannot delete disabled Americans. We are not going back to asylums and sanitariums.

Trump and Musk are killing cancer research AND they want you and your kids to get sick and die.
They have killed the Epidemic Intelligence Service AKA “the disease detectives.” These are the experts on the frontlines protecting us from new and old infectious disease threats. Gone. In tbe stroke of a pen.

Bird flu outbreaks are driving up egg prices for families.

Now, Elon Musk wants to shut down USAID, the agency responsible for monitoring outbreaks in dozens of foreign countries.

With egg prices increasing grocery bills, why halt efforts to prevent a U.S. bird flu crisis?

Even if Los Angeles were low on water, Trump’s executive orders wouldn’t help with that, because the federal government’s canal system doesn’t actually deliver any water to the Los Angeles area.

From @gristnews.bsky.social via @climatedesk.org:
Trump's claim of routing water to Los Angeles is hogwash. It all goes to Central Valley megafarms.
"It’s an attempt to tie water supply to a natural disaster, but those connections don’t exist in reality.”
