Rep. Jim Jordan sent a letter to FTC Chair Lina Khan on Wednesday, questioning whether she has taken action on her former employer's calls for her agency to block Elon Musk's pending purchase of Twitter.

Jordan wrote in his letter to Khan that "OMI appears to believe that the FTC will be receptive to its cavalier effort to influence a federal agency that is run by its former employee.

""It is true that the Biden FTC is moving to promote progressive values that undermine capitalism and threaten innovation," the Ohio lawmaker continued. "And under your leadership, the Biden FTC has sought to ‘recast antitrust law into a tool to enable government to control capitalism,’ which disrupts free markets and is inconsistent with fundamental American freedoms. Perhaps this is why OMI seems to think it may have a friendly ear in the FTC.
