    A White House spokesperson noted that the Administration does not play a role in or comment on enforcement actions but pointed to another example of Biden’s DOJ blocking a merger that would have raised prices for lettuce and packaged salads, and also suing to address price-fixing of chicken, pork, and turkey meats

    The sheer balls to say there’s nothing you can do because it’s not your job…

    And then immediately demand credit for something similar?

      I’m confused how you think it’s similar. Do you have some source that claims the Biden administration instructed the DOJ to block that merger?

      Cause what they are doing is pointing out how their independent DOJ has a track record of already investigating these occurances. They aren’t demanding credit for directing them to do so.
