Wdym? The regulators under Biden were pretty aggressive with antitrust investigations, which pissed off the right and oligarchs and decided to throw their support to have Trump return to deregulate.

Aggressive != being actually good at your job. She lost the MS case so badly it was straight up embarrassing for the FTC

I haven't paid much attention to FTC prosecution under Biden, but I can see what you mean. Prosecutors tend to build up their cases however slow. Maybe she hadn't done her due diligence on this regard.
