Move further unwinds initiative to crack down on anti-competitive practices in agriculture, drugs and labor
Donald Trump on Wednesday revoked a 2021 executive order on promoting competition in the US economy issued by Joe Biden, the White House said.
The move by the Republican US president further unwinds a signature initiative by his predecessor, a Democrat, to crack down on anti-competitive practices in sectors from agriculture to drugs and labor.
The justice department welcomed Trump’s revocation of the order, saying it was pursuing an “America first antitrust” approach focused on free markets instead of what it called the “overly prescriptive and burdensome approach” of the Biden administration.
Getting pretty nervous that it really was the last election that mattered friends.
He said you would never have to vote again.
Oh I know and i believed it but even after having read Protect 2025 it’s so much worse than I imagined.
He lies so much, why couldn’t he have been lying about this too?
Just now?
I’m sure there will be more elections on the territory of the US in the future. You just need to get through this brief interlude of total societal collapse and widespread cannibalism. Give it a century or two and you’ll be back on your feet.
No, there will be elections that matter again, that’s practically inevitable.
Past a certain point, though, the path back becomes increasingly long and violent.
An important goal is to try and minimise that violence

This is a disgrace. Just remember that there was a time when the justice department would refuse to make such political statements because they were supposed to be an independent agency.

So getting rid of the pro-competition stuff will help the free market? Sure, Jan.
Fascism
We can’t have that. Only the companies that will give him a blow job can compete.
Meh. Both sides are the same. Democrats are beholden to the special interests of more economic competition.
Both sides are the same.
If you can’t see the difference, maybe find a school?
got me some scrod what now
Democrats are beholden to Big Consumer Protection too.
How are so many people missing the joke twice lol
I just assume some get the joke but hate the Democrats enough to downvote me for only dissing them satirically.
Just look at the replies that essentially agree with the both sides mentality.
Have you seen conservative commentary?
Fuck. That’s fair.
Pretty sure the Democrats never made the independant Justice Department verbally suck their very small dick all the time.
You’re not wrong, but the Dems are just corporate cucks compared to Der GOP corporately fucking up everything for profit.
Biden’s term solidified this for me.
We saw how weak and vulnerable our system of government was and we collectively did NONE of the things that could have actually made a difference. Weak-ass executive orders that could be reversed is just one of the half measures they did instead of packing the court and promptly prosecuting the former criminal in chief.
the issue as i see, is that Republicans have controlled Congress the entire time, which is where actual change is made. The president doesn’t write laws.
I will say one word that distinguishes the parties: Scapegoats.
