How about we institute a Penny per Trade and that goes into the Social Security and Healthcare System

Those findings directly collided with Trump narratives. CCDH mapped the same ecosystems that fueled election denial, COVID misinformation, and coordinated harassment the networks Trump relied on to mobilize support, undermine trust, and attack journalists and institutions. Instead of disputing the
