Doha Mekki is a trustbuster, full stop, period. She has done more than almost anyone else in government to help people who actually work for a living. Anything else you hear is a lie
This piece by @LucasNolan who is apparently Breitbart's "Ireland-based reporter" deserves to be taken apart. The new right has generally been supporting of Biden FTC/DOJ antitrust policies, but Nolan claims to have found a "woke" enforcer in the form of Doha Mekki. /1

None of this is partisan. None of it is controversial. It's been more than two weeks since the the cost of living was declared an emergency. It's time to act.
