With legislation almost certain to fail given bipartisan backing for Israel, administration’s decision to weigh in shows desire for party to maintain pro-Israel stance after election
really though, he’s changed the course entirely on anti trust. these are the first meaningful anti trust cases since the 90s. it’s actually a huge deal.
And how long after Trump takes office will Biden’s anti-trust cabinet members be ousted and their decisions reversed?
And assuming they aren’t, in what meaningful way does the average American benefit from Google, a multi-billion dollar corporation, being forced to sell one part of their business? You’re going to say, “Well, innovation won’t be hampered like it was with telecommunication under AT&T, and this is a step in the right direction!”
But Walmart hasn’t been broken up, or Amazon who have their hands in every pot from online retail to internet infrastructure to server and cloud hosting to DoD contracts, or any of the other sectors that we’ve watched slip into monopolies and duopolies over the last couple decades.
If you asked the average American, would they even know who Kahn is? Or that the FTC is even going after Google for Chrome? And if they don’t, why couldn’t the Biden admin effectively communicate that?
Because they get money from the same donors, the same monopolies that they’re “busting up.”
the true power of the president is in appointments.
Good thing Biden put Garland in the AG seat, couldn’t have found a better neoliberal centrist to slow-walk criminal proceedings against a treasonous former president for attempting a coup on national television. Or is Garland not part of Biden’s legacy because it’s a bad part.
Biden failed his country, because he lives in a completely different one, and has his entire life. He’s a career politician who helped enact a lot of the policies the DNC champions today despite their unpopularity and blatant failure rate (keep reaching across that aisle, Joe, I’m sure the GOP will be willing to compromise and act in good faith any day now).
And you know what the biggest indicator is that Biden, the DNC, and Harris, failed our country? They lost to fascism. If Americans saw meaningful progress over the past four years, and if the DNC is so much better than the GOP, why did they lose? Again.
i didn’t say he was great and did everything we needed, I’m saying this isn’t nothing. yes it could have been a lot more, but this is the first time we’ve seen anyone make even close to this much progress in decades. no other president has even mentioned antitrust in decades.
i think busting up major corporations and limiting their influence on people and politics is the single most important thing we need to be doing.
