The Biden DOJ sued Live Nation in 2024 to break up its monopoly over live events. Now, after a jury trial started, the Trump DOJ is settling. @dohamekki.bsky.social explains this weak settlement & why state AGs are forging ahead with the trial to battle anti-competition. youtu.be/c8tNXp9NG8g?...

She joined House Democrats to discuss the rise of algorithms enabling corporations to collude and hike prices, especially in housing, healthcare, transportation, and food, and become "all-seeing, all-knowing price setters. Americans lose when markets are hampered in those ways."
