Under Biden, FTC commissioner Lina Khan was returning the agency to enforcing anti-trust and anti-monopoly laws.
I think she correctly identified corporate consolidation, collusion and legally entrenched middlemen as a threat to the working class and economic competitiveness.
Her record wasn't 100% wins but I think she was setting the stage for a much more impactful 4 years had Biden or Harris won.
I think she was one of the reasons big tech and oligarchs fell into line for Trump. Now we're stuck with the most openly corrupt and transactional corporate administration in US history.
A good interview on her philosophy:
