Dozens of business groups asked President Trump to double down on an antitrust crackdown he pitched during his 2024 campaign – and to “resist pressures” to go soft on Google, Ticketmaster and other alleged monopolists. The groups praised Trump for appointing hawkish antitrust leaders — such as Justice Department antitrust chief Gail Slater, FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson and FTC commissioner Mark Meador — and asked Trump in a Monday letter to “press forward with the full slate of pending cases currently being advanced by the FTC and DOJ” rather than seek settlements. “We urge you to build on the foundation already established and to resist pressures that would return federal antitrust enforcement to a more hands-off approach, the very approach that allowed unchecked market power to take root,” the groups said in the letter exclusively obtained by The Post.
