But she is still out there, fighting for all of us. After a pro-monopoly judge stymied the FTC's bid to block the rotten #MicrosoftActivision merger, Khan re-filed, appealing the decision:

But then there's the finance wing's appointments, like Judge #JacquelineScottCorley, who ruled against #LinaKhan's attempt to block the rotten #MicrosoftActivision merger (don't worry, Khan's appealing):

https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/14/making-good-trouble/#the-peoples-champion

Perhaps the worst, though, is Biden's Secretary of Commerce #GinaRaimondo, a private equity ghoul who did a stint for the notorious wreckers #BainCapital before founding her own firm.

Progressives in the Biden administration have often delivered the goods, but they're all-too-often hamstrung by the corporate cheerleaders the party's right wing secured - think of #LinaKhan losing her bid to block the #MicrosoftActivision merger thanks to a Biden-appointed, big-money-loving judge:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/14/making-good-trouble/#the-peoples-champion

These self-immolating own-goals are especially visible when it comes to strikes.

Yesterday, I wrote about why the #FTC and #LinaKhan were right to try to block the #MicrosoftActivision merger, and I heard from a lot of people saying this merger was the only way to check #Sony's reign of terror over video games:

But replacing one monopolist with another isn't good for anyone (except the monopolists' shareholders). If we want audiences and workers - and society - to benefit, we have to *de-monopolize* the sector.
