What does it really look like when the U.S. government takes on monopoly power?

In this conversation, former Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Antitrust Division Doha Mekki joins Jonathan Kanter and Teddy Downey to reflect on the transformation of U.S. competition policy, from vertical merger skepticism to labor market enforcement.

They unpack how the 2008 financial crisis sparked a wave of anti-monopoly sentiment, how labor markets became the new frontier of enforcement, and why old tools like consent decrees no longer cut it. You'll hear how vertical mergers, Big Tech, no-poach agreements, and wage-fixing cases became battlegrounds for a rethink of market power—and how that might play out in a second Trump term.
