Trump's FTC and Ambassador Picks Signal Shift in Policy Direction
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Gizmodo
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Andrew Ferguson to lead the Federal Trade Commission, replacing Lina Khan. Ferguson, a Republican FTC commissioner, is expected to reverse many of Khan's consumer protection measures and anti-monopoly actions, aligning with Trump's "America First" agenda. Critics argue Ferguson's focus will be on combating "woke" policies rather than genuinely addressing Big Tech abuses, potentially favoring large corporations over consumer interests.
