    Presidential Power and Antitrust Politics: Part Two

    By Carl W. Hittinger 
and Tyson Y. Herrold | August 25, 2017

    Last month we discussed the role of the presidency in formulating ­antitrust policy, pointing out the fallacy of the view that the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice has historically been (or should be) completely independent of the White House. We posited that history shows that the Antitrust Division's ­enforcement decisions have been (and should be) a product of informed presidential policy and that past presidents have ­attempted to apply the Sherman Act in a way that balances the panoply of ­challenges, both foreign and domestic, that every president elected by the people ­invariably faces.

    Efficiencies Defenses to Merger Challenges

    By Elai Katz | August 21, 2017

    Antitrust columnist Elai Katz writes: In a thorough opinion evaluating the legality of a health insurance merger under antitrust law, the D.C.
