I may not like it, but it's not an anti-trust concern.
> Google started working with the Pentagon on Project Maven
Google shut this down under pressure from employees. Also, not an anti-trust concern.
> Schmidt was one of Obama's besties
Executives at right-wing media are besties with the current president, but that shouldn't result in a future administration launching anti-trust actions against their firms.

Sounds pretty tenuous, but if there's something here roughly equivalent severity to other anti-trust issues then sure, investigate that.
But it looks to me like a piddling pretext to punish perceived political differences in media and infotech.
