Trump taps antitrust hawk Gail Slater to take on DOJ's blockbuster docket of monopoly cases
Briefly

"Big Tech has run wild for years, stifling competition in our most innovative sector and, as we all know, using its market power to crack down on the rights of so many Americans, as well as those of Little Tech!" Trump stated, highlighting the need for stronger antitrust measures against large technology firms during his upcoming administration.
"Slater's nomination shows Trump is 'serious about taking on Big Tech,'" said Garrett Ventry. This reflects the anticipations for a rigorous approach toward antitrust enforcement in the tech sector.
Vance praised Slater's broader approach to antitrust enforcement, aligning with the views of Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan, indicating a shift in how these matters might be handled moving forward.
Having spent significant time at the FTC, Slater's track record includes blocking major mergers like Whole Foods' acquisition of Wild Oats, establishing her as a formidable figure in antitrust discussions.
